according to rfc 2616 (See here)

10.5.1 500 Internal Server Error
The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request.

The entire 50x class means some sort of server error..

Plus its BrianEnigmas personal website, not in game.. so..

Nothing to see here, move along.. ;)

100% with you on this one Bri... I know my company is wary of announcing a product until the VERY last minute. I mean, we've just released something new this month after over six months of speculation and guessing... and the spec and guesses were coming from US, the people expected to sell this thing! Rolling Eyes

Very curious that on a public website they say "Heres the name of something we're working on. It's coming along well, thank you very much. That's all we have to share with you at this time."... Confused

Labyrinth also sounds likes an internal code name for the project and not the name they'd go with once they are trying to sell the thing. I mean, you'd think they'd find a way to brand the product in accordance with the "meta-" naming convention.

MetaGamex
MetaVRX
MetaOffice
MetaDex

I also think that the marketing department would need to be fired if they named a product "Labyrinth". Companies tend to shy away from product names that have negative connotations.

Well, what about this Metacafe? Is this an ingame site? Someone wanna take this? I'm like barely computer literate, but I know people here will know if this site is ingame or not.

I just tried something because of the "gift certificate" to the employee of the month to the Metacortex cafe. It says "coming soon" though. So...

Large corporations have large cafeterias to feed their employees. The big tech companies I've worked for have had really good gourmet type food. The catch is, the employees have to pay for it and it costs a lot more than Micky D's. A gift certificate for the company cafe is exactly the kind of thing you'd expect as a reward at a crappy company. Smile

I don't think Metacortex would have a domain for their employee cafe. Very Happy

No, it has to be in game because Kat Cunningham got a $50 gift certificate for being named employee of the month. Maybe when this is all over, we can all pick up some Metacortechs keychains and stuffed Laika dolls.

She got a gift certificate to the "MetaCortex Cafe", not the "MetaCafe".

I would say not in game at the moment. The domain registration info doesn't match correctly, and the hosting is a completely different company.
