[META] Thank you!!!

(I posted this on FB, but only some of the team would see it. And frankly, I would post this everyplace if I could!)

Thank you. All of you. I have not been this EXCITED! This invested, in a game... In a character... In a long time.

Thank you doesn't even cut the mustard my friends!

I don't know who I was actually chatting with, but thank you for letting me do my strength when playing - interaction.

Many of us hope for a good old fashion post game PM team chat!!!
Thank you Steve Peters and Alison Norrington!!!!
Thank you also Blair Erikson, Brian Clark, Jan Libby, and Michael Monello!!!!

Standing ovation.
My only problem is that I always get sucked into the ones that set the bar so high, it makes it hard for the next one to live up to my expectations.

Bar raised, again.
Thank you!!!

Agreed... Well done by the PMs, and it was a great ride. Really a fantastic experience, and I'd look forward to anything on this scale in the future.

Rarely do we see such a condensed, but well-thought-through situation from beginning to end. Just well done all around. So glad to have been a part of it.

And I second the old-fashioned "behind the curtain" talks afterwards. Smile

Thanks so much for this whole week. Its been a wild ride. My college work has been totally neglected, so a behind the curtain talk to make up for it would only be fair! Twisted Evil

Man, this was one hell of a ride. Thanks Alison and Steve and all who contributed... this is a creative form that I wish one day will be as common as books or movies. The story, the photography, the writing, the interaction... it was all amazing. Please make more Smile

The photography was so good. I loved it. It sparked a lot of inspiration for me.

Thanks PM team! This was the first game I've invested a great deal of time into in a decade, and I enjoyed it very much. Was unfortunate that I couldn't be around during the endgame, but that's Halloween for ya.

Looking forward to the next endeavour from Project Alibi!

Thank you team! This was my first ARG and I loved it! I hope I didn't get out of character too much or break any other rules. I kind of just got dropped into the game not knowing what it was. You have my support for anything you do in the future!

It was a great ride, can't wait for the next one! Thanks to everyone who made it possible, both the contributors and the team.

And by the way, I don't know if it was a decision by the PMs, but thanks for not stretching it out until midnight west coast time. It would have made for a very late night for those of us further east!

This was awesome. It is the day after and I'm still processing everything. Thank you for reigniting my love of transmedia with Dark Detour.

Bravo.

That's how it goes! This was definitely more "interactive fiction" rather than straight up arg (not so much in the puzzling area) but still an AWESOME intro to the genre!

Loved it!

Adding my thanks to everyone, on all sides of the curtain, for making this fantastic experience!

Knowing who was behind it was a big attraction for me. You've all presented the thought provoking story, the wonderful characters, the creepy thrills, and that rush that happens at endgame... each so reminiscent of early ARGs that I fondly recall.

I'll never listen to "Hotel California" in quite the same way again.

Thank you!

I echo the comments above. This was a lovely Halloween treat and brought back fond memories of longer and even more elaborate games. Sorry for posting all over the place. But I'm not sorry for the cats.
