 		I'm most likely looking too far into this, the significance could just be the fact that its "a mask" but here...

Updated initial info post with new youtube video "Masks" and linked to the Paul Laurence Dunbar poem, "We Wear the Mask".

So sounds like Izzy is soon for college, and that Diego has friends in Boston.

I'll try to pick out more world details when I've a bit more time.

 		The funny thing is Izzy is younger than Diego..., although it could be nothing, I was looking at colleges at 16 (doesn't hurt to get an early start), but maybe she's a child prodigy or something?

Production of Aporia Agathon Project ceasing
Due to various circumstances, we regret to inform you that the production of the Aporia Agathon Project (the working name for S_____________________y) has come to an unfortunate close. We apologize for building the game up only to let our audience down.

We will be releasing a press kit in the upcoming weeks regarding the failure with the development of this game. Until that time, for more information regarding this situation please continue reading the blog.


The various circumstances are as follows:

Jason Chrest is CEO here at Aporia Cross-Media Entertainment, LLC. Yep, that's me. At around 1 a.m. this morning I was abducted by robot aliens. They informed me that the development of this game is too devastating to them. Apparently they have traveled back in time 600 years because humans were having too much fun. They threatened me, told me they would pull the head off of Humphry - my teddy bear. I considered continuing to develop the game. If it was important enough for them to travel back 600 years to threaten my precious Humphry, then I had to continue development of the game. Then I consulted with my team members and decided it was time to cease the production of the game.

Our lead writer had a run-in with the law last night. While test-planting clues in various locations around the country in her private jet that I loaned her with my loads of cash (yeah right), she was arrested for terrorist activities. I was informed by her husband that she was being extracted to Gitmo. I haven't been there, but I hear the scuba diving down there's nice. I hope she enjoys her vacation, but now I have to figure out how to get my private jet back.

Our technical director lost both of his arms in a fight with a werewolf. He has yet to learn how to type with his feet so communication's a bit hairy. He sounded a little distressed when we last talked, kept hollering OWWWWWW into the phone - almost sounded… wait sounded like a werewolf!!

Ok now I'm really starting to get worried…

We have a few actors who were playing a late night Halo 3 bash. After completing the game on legendary and finding a diamond skull, a guy named Centauri drove up to their house. Apparently they don't have any soldiers left in some far away galaxy and my actors found the diamond skull in Halo 3 proving that they could be the last soldiers in some far away galaxy. So they left and their ship got shot down by those alien robots that abducted me. Now there is some far away galaxy that has no last soldiers, but I did hear that the son of the last star fighter is coming.

The rest of the staff was down here in Mississippi at my house when the alien robots arrived. I woke up after my abduction and discovered that they were alien robots in disguise. I couldn't believe what I was seeing and one of them explained to me that as with many ARGs there is more than meets the eye when it comes to the staff. So I kicked them in their robotic knees and broke my toes.

Wait no… that stuff never happened disregard this entire blog, heck I just woke up give me a break.

Happy April Fool's Day

 		my april fools day joke was as follows:
it's about 2am (technically April 1st) and my wife and i get into bed (we are both young and havent started college yet, and are living with my parents) she turns off the light and is like "hey babe, i've been meaning to tell you this all day, but, i'm pregnant"
i reacted as any guy would in that situation only to be told it was an april fools joke.
what do you need for an anullment? Razz

 		Jan put up a new video today:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7PiQvrb3XQ

Now we're gettin' to the fun stuff, she mentions to Diego not to unload his secrets to the world, (ooooo what secrets?) because he will get into trouble. And she mentions recruiting students and online (us I assume) for some project, probably relating to whatever they're hiding...

All in all, I can't wait for summer to roll in.
