Interesting That's really interesting. I mean: why did they stop selling things when the interest was so high? It was dropping among ARG people, of course, but they have stopped to sell stuff. I was an internet scammer, I wouldn't do that.

The interest level might have been high in terms of discussion. I wonder how many people actually purchased a trip. My guess is that Marc didn't see enough orders to make his business viable and is moving on to other things. Or he got bored.

I'm in agreeance (agreeance?) with wb, I think lack of sales figures and ultimately boredom rang the death knell on this one.
I just can't shake the paranoid feeling though that somewhere, we're all being written up in a thesis.
Oh well, it was interesting while i-*
Agreement! That's what I meant. Yeah.

To tell the truth, I am still working with the base sequence. Could be encrypted text.

Hmm, in the longstanding tradition of meltdowns, perhaps a Teleport Haiku contest is in order??

Attempt 1
It came in a dream
Twenty dollars for lanyards
I call it RedKore.
Attempt 2
Dear Redkore Marc,
That day we met in the chat --
I still don't like you.
Attempt 3 (last one!)
It has been written,
Each of us will transcend Earth.
Redkore -- not the way.
Steve, your ideas always rock!

Teleport haiku I never bought it.
That lanyard looked really cool, though.
You could hang yourself.

Delicous crackers?
They could do very weird things
I will not eat them
A core could be red
A lanyard could be magic
I really doubt it
Alright, thats what I came up with. And if either of them dont make sense, I really wasnt ever paying attention to this game.

Funny... they both make more sense than any of my three. You are entirely too smart for your own good, 42.
Oh... and I don't think this was a game. Mind you, it wasn't a "This Is Not A Game" kind of thing either. I denote Redkore to the rarely used TINAG-TIC category.

How about limericks?
Marc once sold a useless white ticket,
Promising "TELEPORT" if you lick it.
It was a huge farce,
And up his white arse,
Is where Jamesi told Marc he could stick it!
