It was sent to your hotmail Very Happy

Sorry I posted a new topic (london operations), I had no idea that this could be related to day 21, mainly because theres been no updates or activity, even though the game was supposed to of started.

I'm thinking (now that I'm far less tired) that it's completely unrelated to Day 21, because Day 21 was supposed to be something readers could read along with and not necessarily have to participate in (if they wanted to email or call people, they could, but it wasn't necessary to following the progress). I.E. as you read the updates on their page,you get contact info. This was an email to us directly.

I'll drop JF an email back.

Edit: I emailed them when I read the email, but as yet nothing back

Well, I signed up for Day 21 but didn't receive an email. Then again, maybe that's because I'm not in the UK.

I don't think this is related. It seems like a really odd way to start (after they've already told us how the game works), and the story thus far appears unrelated.

Aw. Sad I was really looking forward to this. I hope this does start as planned, even if late. Has anyone tried emailing the writers?

I don't think this has been posted yet (I'm sorry if it has been) -

All of the entries from the writers' blogs have been deleted:

http://interactfic.21publish.com/

Sad

I guess Day 21 wasn't meant to be?

Well, one of the writers did say someone close to her died. Maybe that put a hold on things?

Also, did any of the creators actually say where the story would be posted? On the site itself, in the 21publish blogs, etc.? I don't know the likelyhood of this, but maybe it's already started and we just haven't found where it's actually being posted.

Or maybe I'm just throwing out random ideas in hope of coming up with a reason it hasn't started as planned. Sad

Esteed's not in the UK, either. I think he's just well-known. Smile

If someone does, on the 'News' page it says their email address has changed to interact-ficSPLATgmail.com.

Edit: Rawr. I thought I'd been quick enough not to double-post. Sorry.

Having just tried to send an email to interact-ficSPLATgmail.com, I discovered that I get a bounce. Apparently no such user exists. Shocked

EDIT: Ah, that's because it's a period instead of a hyphen in the email address. It's interact.ficSPLATgmail.com.

Yes, yes, double post I know. But I received a reply from Tyler, so I figured it was worth the double post.

Quote:
We're having serious computer problems... someone sent us a nasty virus a few weeks back, so we all need to buy new computers. This means we haven't been able to work on Day 21 in weeks, so all of the preparations we made went out the window.

We're very sorry; we aren't cancelling the game, but it's at least going on hold for a while.

Hopefully folks will still be interested.

-Tyler

They all need to buy new computers because of one email virus? A little suspicious, but...

Nevertheless, I'm still interested. I greatly look forward to your return and playing 'Day 21'!
