Yes, lots of proof. But I think we're past that.

This makes absolutely no sense. Why would a PM willingly ASK players to further complicate his own game?

Someone else had a crazy idea: what if this is an effort by the PMs to make the game end itself? If the players continue to drag the game in to the abyss, the PM can call "plausible deniability" and be clear of any liability with his customers. He can lay the blame on the players and truly walk away.

I have no bunnies. I do have brownies. Brownie

Or a horse. Pony?!

That's like a bunny. It's an animal, at least. Brownies are not animals. Nor are they fuzzy. Well, they're not supposed to be. If your brownies are fuzzy DO NOT EAT THEM!

exposing of personal in real life information? hacking attempt?

i am having difficulties trying to set this apart; this could be something real and dangerous. this can also be a coordinated plan and effort.

even though so, for all the confusement, alfa-tsentr.ru and shineisei.jp has the same IP, although registering domain names are very expensive ($60 a year). this really made me feel that this whole thing's just a game.

if they really are trying to market something, why are they restricting the playerbase? i think this is some reverse psychology.


all this drama is diluting our minds from the real puzzle. let's just solve the puzzle.

That's just the thing... right now, there is no puzzle to solve.

They have done nothing to advance the game. If anything, it's about to take several steps back due to player misinformation at their request.

According to this: http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/6182/1250940990221.png, the whole thing is merely Patrick's PR action as he tries to make himself a name. But I guess he made it only worse.

This has been like watching a truckload of Puppies smash into a busload of Super Models while side-swiping and flipping a carful of Nuns who were on their way to the Orphanage the next block down, which has just caught on fire... And now the Fire Dept. can't get to the Orphanage because of the all the wreckage.

I want to tear my eyes away... but just can't... and I hate myself for it. Not because of time invested... but because up till now there has really only been conventional weapons used... and I think this is about to go nuclear... I'm putting away the popcorn and bringin' out the marshmallows...

Edit: Just as an aside... who would you save first in the situation above??

I guess you are a Junko's captain.

Now thats funny... because I have been thinking the same about you my Russian friend... Smile

Which is exactly why this is only going to get out of hand very soon. (If its not too late already)

I say we all go find a new game that will drop soon and work together on something fun... and watch from the sidelines as this JJ shit all goes up in a mushroom cloud...

EDIT: @ Paperbackwriter9 Fair enough! LoL!

Oh, sorry guy. I haven't read your post closely and thought you just have written some strange random words. Sorry again. I believe this whole game is a fail now.

If any captains are spreading disinformation already, they're doing it wrong. Junko told them to wait to be told when to begin. They have not been instructed to as of yet. The log file I've seen is incomplete. Take that as you will:

A) Captains are here, but not following instructions.
B) They are not captains.

@ Nomad No worries my Friend.

I have been really impressed at how you guys over in the Big Red have tackled this game and I look forward to adventures in the future.
