 		Yeah, I think most of us were involved in Deus City. It was a bit odd when I checked the mail and found a trailhead, since I haven't been on here in a while, lol.

I clicked the link and followed the ones on here, but I noticed something--nobody's responded to the actual trailhead. No comments on that page or anything. The guy might be a bit insane, but might know something. I might leave a comment on his blog or send him an email. Most likely the latter.

Anyway, nice seeing all the DC folks and UF again! Have to check here more often.

I too have received an e-mail and was involved in Deus City and its subsequent madness.

I'm not sure if I am going to be involved but I'm just chiming in to say, Hey, been a long time Deus City.

 		Speaking of the iknowwhathappened blog, [uel=http://iknowwhathappened.wordpress.com/2010/04/04/who-are-you/]new post[/quote]...

Quote:
who are you?

I said you have to follow me. You have to listen to me. It was all about me, until recently. And those fuckers from marigold sistems found out about it. Did she really have to talk about it? I know what the truth is. Not her. But, I respect it. Those non-believers have to be stoped.


(yes, complete with typos and all)

Now in the email source I had noticed marigoldsystems.com but thought nothing of it, assuming it was an OOG piece of info. Apparently not.

ETA: Someone apparently forgot to change some template text from here. Lawl.

 		It looks like standard web design dummy text, and it might be, but here is what an online translation service says about the Latin that is on the Marigold Systems website:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
(Using www.stars21.com/translator/latin_to_english.html)

Consequently malesuada , if not but price concern , spotless spotless fellowship spotless , but crime skirmish itself not mauris. When fellowship natoque penatibus and magnis rich parturient Mons nascetur facetious mouse. Consequently unseemly lorem , conveyance when rutrum he is amet laoreet according to reason unseemly. But not imperdiet mauris. Eneus life bed itself. Tomorrow lamentation annoyance nibh this lobortis. Phasellus to extreme poverty laughter but ligula anyone magna pregnant nibh various malesuada life and lion. Consequently malesuada , if not but price concern , spotless spotless fellowship spotless , but crime skirmish itself not mauris. When fellowship natoque penatibus and magnis rich pa mauris. When fellowship natoque penatibus and magnis rich parturient.


I could make some sense from this when given time, I suppose. I will get on that and then post what I come up with. From what I can put together right now, it has something to do with a pure companion entering into a partnership, something about a chosen one and terrible calamaties, and so on. So it is probably intended to be a prophetic statement.

 		The text you pulled,

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Ut quis magna gravida nibh varius malesuada vitae ac leo.
Proin malesuada, nisi at pretium sollicitudin, purus purus sodales purus, sed scelerisque velit ipsum non mauris. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. Proin turpis lorem, vehicula ut rutrum sit amet, laoreet consequat turpis. Sed non imperdiet mauris. Aenean vitae lectus ipsum. Cras luctus molestie nibh id lobortis. Phasellus egestas risus at ligula quis magna gravida nibh varius malesuada vitae ac leo. Proin malesuada, nisi at pretium sollicitudin, purus purus sodales purus, sed scelerisque velit ipsum non mauris. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis pa mauris. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient...


Shows up in standard Lorem Ipsum generated stuff, so right now its just blurbage...

What interests me is the service interruption on 3-21-2010 that the site talks about...

Anybody got a rough timeline of events so far?

I think it is template text, lol. Take a look: http://www.getfreewebdesigns.com/preview/?template=771

Either way though, marigold seems to be a new website. So that makes 3 in total so far. Any links besides the insane alien person?

 		Okay, so I also received the email... looks like I'm up to the same point as you.

Only thing is... I have not been involved with "Deus City".
The only ARGs I've been involved with are "The Junsui Project" and Cloverfeild.


So I find it strange that I've received this email.

Please tell me it's not the Rogue Junsui PM that seemed to destroy the lovely game it was to begin with...!

 		Little update...

Lorem ipsum mumbo jumbo is gone, replaced by some proper marketing lines.

And note the company news about the security breach! o.O

Oh, and apparently there is a login system for employees (http://www.marigoldsystems.com/employees.php), which is down at the moment, courtesy of the security breach. But hey, something to lookout for in the future!

Unusual, in that I had nothing to do with either of those games. Ah well *shrug*

Oh, and btw, in the TV series Flashforward, April 29th, 2010 is a significant date where everyone saw visions of themselves on that day. Dunno whether they're related at all, just a thought Smile


Oh, I hope not. Nothing will make me drop this ARG quicker than a tie-in to Flash Forward....

I had no involvement with Deus City at all.

But I have been in some high-profile ARGs around here.

Same here, due to it's stuff up... the Junsui ARG had a lot of attention.

The Junsui also used to contact me, I was one of only a few...


Seems like we need to get into that box myself.



Personally though, this whole ARG seems pretty low budget and as if it wont travel very far into the things that keep me playing ARGs.

 		I also received this email, and was involved with Deus City. I'm also following the Tron viral, and I originally thought this email was tied to that promotion, but the language on the IKWH blogspot quickly convinced me that was wrong - Disney rarely drops the F-bomb.

I'll be following and helping where I can! Smile

 		Hey this is my first real arg. I made some posts, don't think I'm a character.
