this is somewhat offtopic but...

nope, the minoans were sufficently weakened by the eruption of Thera to be invaded by the myceneans (their the guys responsible for the trogan war). the myceanae rule crete (and greece) with an iron fist for 150 years and then fall to barbarians from thessaly who, after a few centuries become the classical greek city states.
end history lesson. Very Happy

I'd better be right, i've got a test on this in a week Confused

hopefully this might eventually lead somewhere
I've tried everything I can think of in relation to minoan/myceanean culture as mlo's password and got nothing.

It's an underwater hotel, right? Does that mean that the toilets are connected to normal plumbing or do you just flush and... no, good lord, that just doesn't bear thinking about...

Hmm, it just struck me that The Aquapolis is being built near Mykonos, which is the Greek spelling for Mycenae...

Giskard: yeah. Mycenae -> Minos -> Labyrinth/Deadalus/Minotaur etc etc.

I know this is going to sound really corny, but I found an alternative Labyrinth reference too... Remember the pre-Muppets Jim Henson movie with David Bowie and the girl who lets her brother get kidnapped by goblins?

(aww, c'mon, it was in the TV guide when I was eating breakfast... Wink

hmm did you click on his name... That send you to a page where there is all is comment about movie... also, it was write the 25 october 2002 so i don't think thats part of this ARG. Anyway, we can't relay on those comment because it can be anyone using a false name... or trying to get people confuse.

Oh, I know. My point was just that it was kind of freaky to see this Matrix/Metacortex reference. I strongly doubt it has anything to do with the game.

I'm sorry, but I just have to share this: what if the Muppets were agents?

Can you imagine Fozzie Bear doing the agent-dodging-bullets thing, or Beaker just cutting loose with some wall-running kung-fu?

Actually, looking at her behaviour, Miss Piggy could well BE an agent... Wink

I know, there's something seriously wrong with me. I'm going to go have myself checked out now... Laughing

Wokka-wokka-wokka...
