 		I doubt he is talking about H2H. I only say that because it is still continuing even if we did already "fail."

Yeah, he makes it fairly clear that he "Terminates" players who fail. So I'm guessing whatever game it was is well and truly dead. Where is Fish when you need him(?) ?

Remember this Is an ARG


Where's the Alternate Reality? I guess the 'termination' part?

AOD could also mean Angel of Death, maybe? Goes along with the whole termination vibe...

The termination thing could be only this time around... What kind of 'game' could he be talking about? I can't help thinking ARG here, but is there anything else that gets "conducted" (makes me think of PM's)?

And how is he/she measuring our individual performances? Our contributions here?

OK I am here. The game I played by this PM was more than 2 weeks ago and did not contain any missions or failures. I do not think it is what AOD is talking about.

 		Hmm, makes me think of the TV show "The Apprentice" where people get fired or terminated for doing badly at various tasks?

Unfortunately, I don't follow the Apprentice TV show UK or US version, was there a game type task that had to be performed in the show?

 		he does say he conducted "this game." maybe he means that we are the second lot of people to play this particular game. The first lot of people were IG so to speak, not any of us here.

 		Well, Final State terminated in the right time frame and Musiclover posted in it, but since Leyton has posted here a few times I guess not. Who else got the trailhead... Fish, Nighthawk, Callista, Leyton, shylilembrace ... anyone else? Were you all invovled in something?

List edited for accuracy

@ Jabba...maybe.

 		I didn't get the trail head, noone ever sends them to me. Crying or Very sad I involved myself in the game as soon as i saw the initial post. And the last thing i was involved in, before my recent reappearance was Triskabiblios. and this is most definitely NOT Toby's style.

Maybe he/she is not referring to an actual game, but part of an alternate reality or even an actual instance where "this" game that we are in now was previously played? I have no idea about how we would get info about this, but i figured i'd throw out this idea spontaneously.

I actually didn't notice the errors, one of my weak points, i suppose...

 		Previous game
Mission 1
I've been reading along but not playing. I've been looking through some of the older ARGs that have ended in order to determine if the PM is referring to one of them. 2 old ARGs fit into the timeframe, but not into the concept of players being terminated, Shroud 3 and Drak-Tech. I PMed Will 2.0 asking him to take a look at this and see if Shroud 3 fit into what the PM was describing, no dice. As for Drak-Tech, I don't know any of the people who played it but it appears to have had a lot of gramatical errors in the text of the game? If you care to read about Drak-Tech it can be found here.
