[META] Paradigm shift Probably not a big thing here, but I was looking at all the titles to the four different discussion themes:
MetaCortechs: General/Updates
MetaCortechs: Quick Reference
MetaCortechs: Interaction
MetaCortechs: Puzzles
All of the titles begin with MetaCortechs. I understand that the Metacortechs site was the first up in this game and that is where the naming convention comes in. But it may be skewing focus somewhat by refering to the game as the "MetaCortechs" game - which would suggest that Metacortechs is the central theme of the game. Perhaps it is - I do not know. But perhaps it is not - which might be a good reason to change the titles in order to shift the paradigm.
Just a thought...

That's a very good point, but change it to what?
MetaCortechs was the "trailhead", meaning the first site to kick off the game.. I don't think we have enough information to figure out what this game is called, and I wouldn't want to just call it "The Matrix ARG" ..
So I say keep it for now.. suggestions?

I figured that question might come up. I didn't suggest anything because I have no clue what to suggest...

You need some sort of internal name so that these forums are different then the, say Acheron forums. Metacortechs makes sence, since it is the trailhead.

I agree, keep it like this. Imho it's too late to change it anyway, it was named the MetaCortechs ARG and there's no way back!
(Although mainro's suggestion for the puzzle section sounds very tempting)

I agree with all of the above, don't change the original name! But surely the Oct 1st Pic does deserve it's own special little place!
