Oh, and it's still true: don't blame Bungie! Razz

AKQA, I would then surmise, is either owned by MS, or is one of their "industry contacts" =/

Well, 'twas fun while it lasted...

So, does this now officially count as my first ARG evah, or was it just not... er... "ARG-y" (For lack of a better word...) enough?

Hideous corporate backslapping, look at what we did aren't we good. No wonder it was a mess with so many different people working on it.

Don't mind me eccramer, I'm sure you dad is a decent guy Laughing

, I'm bitter because I didn't receive any server swag, despite helping to unlock server 2.

It is also a big disappointment that we speculated what the story would be after the first server opened, I guess you could throw enough theorys around and one is bound to be right but still the content is there for somebody to do a better job.

It all just feels a little half baked.

im also in the Uk and worried whether im going to get my server reward.

by the way there was actually a SOTA rally in central london near the london eye i think it was.

anyway this arg has been a bit of negative advertising really, its got me intrigued etc - but it was so badly put together

oh well it may have been dissapointing but at least i met some cool peaple

Did they just imply that ILB was money wasted? Knowing Microsoft, I'm sure they feel that way. Less is less and more is more. Most players are clearly disappointed with the outcome of Iris, with the exceptions being some of the very few who received swag--not that I would feel any different had I unlocked a server. Oh well--at least I can say I participated in an advertisement called Iris. Maybe one day 42 will be given the opportunity to revisit history.

Wow, that article was just... wow. I don't think I'd really be comfortable writing a press release like that knowing how upset so many people were.
