[OOG] 500Rads Gamejack / Fan Fiction Since so many people seem to want to discuss it, wouldn't it be nice to have a separate thread for it? (If only so the rest of us don't have to listen to the /Spec)
NOTE: Veteran users are fairly certain that the following has nothing to do with any official JJ Abrams sites/news. So, until further notice, it would be helpful if you only pursued this line of inquiry in this thread and not in any of the other official threads.

Sure, thanks, I can come here. I was trying to keep anything I find on those two blogs over on the threads on the Cloverfield archive. But, if it's better to do it here on the (remote) chance that it's somehow connected to something, I can do that, too.
Of course, I could also stop bringing it up, I suppose.

This is going to be as hard to shake as Ethan Haas was. Maybe Ethan Haas is ACTUALLY INVOLVED IN THIS ONE THIS TIME. No no, it's obviously the blog with the super cheesy "SDAR005" header.
Please let this thing die now before people start using it as part of the game.

Amen.
I really was contemplating adding a "please don't look at 500 Rads for game info" to my sticky post. I was even looking at supporting facts such as why would an IG site (that is supposed to follow the rules of their universe) would even refer to a "Cloverfield" when this was not even part of the main cannon.
Alas, I tend to have faith on the collective intelligence. And I truly believe that our players are smarter than looking at someone's somewhat pathetic efforts for attention to get their information from.
Please don't prove me wrong.

Well, I find the idea of this [OOG]-thread pretty cool. So all themes related to this fan fiction could be posted here, instead in the main threads, where they don't belong.
I mean, better here, than there.

Yes, we'll have a plenty of these. We'll perhaps even have a new Aladygma or so.

I'll see your Aladygma and raise you a Bold Futura and a minotaur.

And the Lion will come,
And his voice will be huge and alive,
And he will say: "Ethan Haas was right!"

Monsters on Trail would be cool!
It is actually! lol
And yes, after the ARG definition is every ARG project an ARG, whether related to another project or not.
I'll keep an eye on your blog btw. We need every hint we get.
