the above chatlog translation:

Mr Boddy: I regret to inform you that the PM's of this game haven't gotten their storyline and plot all the way complete and have prematurely launched the game, so you will have to wait a little longer for an update.


Hey, not neccessarily. There could be any number of reasons why they're having a wait. To be honest, a delay of a few days is nothing, really, compared with what has been around before in other games.

More on the meta side - for some reason I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens on May 11. Maybe because it's got the promise of being a short-term diversion and I know that I won't have to make the investment of several weeks to get involved? Maybe because the universe is already fairly clearly defined, between the board game and the movie? Maybe because the contact has been unobtrusive, initially somewhat intriguing, and with a care for appearance? And all this for a game which so far has no web sites, even. Interesting phenomenon, at least in my own psyche.

The further the ARG world progresses, the more I wish there were rewarding casual play opportunities. I will be very impressed if this scratches that itch.

I'm not really getting this vibe you seem to be getting of a short game...but I suppose as opposed to games like The Lost Ring and The Dark Knight, yeah, this does feel shorter Razz

I do concurr that this is really interesting how we have had no websites, but the universe, based on existing properties, is allready clearly defined. I like Wadsworth too. Whoever is playing Wadsworth is an excellent text-actor, giving us a real feeling of class, with a bit of ironic humor.
I'm excited to see what happens next.

I sent Wadsworth an email earlier this week, got back a message saying that I am not in the group but my name is on the list for future parties. I ended up emailing him asking him to update his records as I had just had my name legally changed to John Doe. Did this once I realized that roleplaying was going to be part of this, I wanted to set up a character. I'm essentially copying a character from one of my favourite books, but it's not super well known and it offers up a LOT of opporunities for sillyness and excellent roleplaying, so, hey, I'm going to run with it.

 		Wow Enaxor, great character. I love how she has so many tattoos EXCEPT a tramp stamp. The one place you would expect her to have one. I think it's fun that they are giving us our own e-mail and MySpace pages. I can't wait to get my character bio!!

Dr. Sanguinez is haughty, to say the least. A retired, self declared, renaissance man, he now spends his days laying on his deck with a glass of wine, a book, and a hired young lady to apply suntan lotion and bring him popsicles. He enjoys quiet, both in his surroundings and inside of his head.

How'd they know?

 		DAMN YOU PANCITO! YOU KILLED MY PET RAT!

and now the explanation:

Quote:
Mr. Duke is 21 years of age and resides in Nowheresville, Ohio. You already have your character so I only need to add your knowledge of others. Your character has come in contact with all of the other guests at some point or another. You being an affluent, schizophrenic, drug doing, partying, under age girl chasing, man means you have been everywhere and done everything. The problem is that your mind is so hazy, the past changes rapidly inside of your head. At times you recognize people you have met before and moments later you forget them and introduce yourself again. There is one thing you know for certain, however, the man you will meet again as Mr. Sanguinez is a face you will never forget; he killed your pet rat.


haha I'm Hunter S Thompsons alter ego!

edit: www.myspace.com/theDukeOfRaoul anybody like my myspace url?

 		Should anyone like to MySpace friend Ms. Janice, you may -

http://www.myspace.com/ms_janice08

Quote:
Ms. Janice is 35 and the marketing master mind for the largest record company in the United States. She resides in Texas, but spends much of her time traveling the world to hang out with the best of the best in musicians. She managed, somehow, to stay healthy in this line of work, and spends much of her free time running and kick boxing; she is most certainly a force to be reckoned with.


I'll keep the other stuff close to the vest for now. Wink

Keep on rockin' in the free world.

 		I just noticed that my gmail addy (DrSanguinez) in the profile email has a mailto: of my arch nemesis. Is that true for others as well?

 		Wups, I needed to change my profile picture since Mr. Boddy forgot to upload mine. Janis is still there; she's just hiding.

 		Just got my "bio". I'm just putting bits and pieces here:

Quote:
Mr. Relish is 30 years old. He resides in West Virginia, but not by choice. You now live in a trailer park with your wife. You work at a gas station and drink your pain away. You have been paying blackmail to an unknown PO Box for years now. It doesn't seem like you have much to lose, so why pay the blackmail?


Email addy is: MrRelishSPLATgmail.com and the myspace is www.myspace.com/mr_relish
