Also said she couldn't get ahold of Martin...

ETA (sorry) Thanks Leyton. This was my first, and though I'm still getting my feet under me I had a lot of fun. Thanks to all yof ou for your patience and encouragement. Not to mention not totally flaming me even though it was occasionally in order.

well if this is the end I just want to say this was the very first ARG I have followed since day one. If it continues I will be thrilled and if it has a sequel in DEC I will be there for certain. this is a lot of fun.

Aw crap. It just HAD to be the night I ended up completely busy. Ah well, I just hope it's not over yet.
Anyway, congrats to the PM on a good job. You can count me in for any other games you make, after all this one was enjoyable.

Endings are usually the worst part......but have to say that at least the PM tried to finish it and not just said 'the end' like alot of them seem to be doing lately. I don't think there will be anything happening in Dec..(definitely could be wrong) because Gerry said: The database or something was deleted before the Copying Files to Backup and Respawning in 269 days appeared. Meaning (?) that if it were to respawn, there would be no files.......maybe.....

I like that it's kind of left out there, nice twist to make ppl wonder. I'll change my name to Wonderwoman if this comes back

Great working with everyone.

Yeah, working with everyone was the best part about this. Just want to say thanks to everyone working on this. Hope I get to work with you all on anotehr game sometime!

I guess this is the official final part of the game... Last blog entry from Becs.

I must say, I'm impressed at the amount of work that went in to this... they did some nice .NET and Flash work, and their graphics stuff was pretty above par. This was not a "let's slap a page together" like (*cough!* The Gate Reaction *cough!*) some other ARGs...

I hate to ask, but did this ARG have a point beyond being a storytelling experience? Because of its complexity, I assumed they would be selling something or be sponsored by somebody, because all this professional work costs something to someone. Or was this like a college project (which would explain the rather young newscasters in the video)?

I just want to say that Marc has replied to my email [confirmation it has in fact ended officially] - And it is who I thought it was.

Now... He, in the email has asked my opinion on having a PM chat @ some stage tomorrow night + He wanted me to pass my thanks on to everyone for playing so well!

I suggested if we have a chat it be around 9pm GMT - If anyone has any better suggestions feel free to say so. I only suggested 9pm GMT because he has a dissertation due on Thursday which needs writing up and for those of you who're not sure what it is, it's basically a "Special project" you get in your final yr @ Uni which is roughly around 10,000 words... So he's got a busy schedule ahead of him.

I told him if he didn't mind I'd post the comm's in here in a bit.

A PM after-chat is totally cool. It's also a bold and brave move on his part to offer/do it.

I wanted to add my applause and appreciation to everyone's playing, this was VERY enjoyable as my first "beginning to end" ARG. Thank you all for participating / making it be a totally awesome experience!

And very good job, PM!

[Leyton Stone]

Alright well I've been asked to do a seperate thread for the PM chat idea so I'm gonna go and do that but this was basically the last 2 emails sent between the PM and myself.

[highwind767]

Fine by me. 9 is OK, compared to all of the other late night stuff that went on.
Good to see we're having a PM chat anyway. Now we can bug him about lots of stuff

[Coffeebean]

I can be there....that's 4pm in Ohio I think.
Where?
