So we're deciding & maybe asking Winter to do some 'splaining Laughing

ETA: Maybe worth a mention that this CKeepers Wiki page gives a lil insight into the Keeper mission

Not going to guess why the G.A.T.E & Cardkeepers updates weren't posted Laughing

incl. Winter's rqst that those who "would like to remain a keeper" email her to reaffirm.

Reckon it will get SO boring here if we don't post our choice. My personal choice to remain a Keeper was based on a nbr of factors incl. fernandocarulli's astute post above and also somewhat on the adage "If one stands for nothing they'll fall for anything." Laughing

I'll stay with the Keepers but it was a hard choice not to switch to the dark side Wink

I also stay as a Keeper Smile

Wonder if G.A.T.E. has any consultants? Laughing

It IS a tough choice. I originally thought to say on as a Keeper, but since everybody seems to be staying, I feel like we need to balance the scales. I think I am going to join the "dark side".

Hi everyone, I've been lurking a lot in other games, but I really want to hop in on this one! Embarassed

I've just caught up all 81 pages (phew!), and I see we are at a crossroads in the game.

As I'm pretty new, wondering if you vets have a preference as to whether a newbie should hop into GATE or the Keepers? As I currently have no attachment to either XD;

Hi raydance. Welcome to uF whatever you decide. Most of the active players chose Keepers so it's logical they'll have more free time to help you there if you get stuck. It does depend a lil on your skillz and your ARG experience..

gosh! I'm new in the sense that I've never actually gotten down and dirty in a game, so we will see if I actually have any skillz!! Laughing

I re-read the emails from previously and saw that GATE is hiring only from Keepers, so for the moment I will email Winter (and include my story as requested in her latest post) and see if there's still room for another Keeper.

thanks for the welcome, amandel and Angela! For some fun and OOG trivia, I am currently writing my thesis on ARGs and am studying a game where the two of you played significant roles Wink

Winter tweeted "more Keepers are always welcome" so that's definitely no worries. Forgot to mention that Winter is very approachable & the best mentor/teacher. Embarassed

I should point out that there are also players that have joined G.A.T.E who are more than capable of helping you out also.

Perhaps not expert password crackers but capable none the less.
