I love you...goodbye.

[CoffeeJedi]

i agree that it is very sad that the ILB experience is over, but....
What made the experience truly magical was not the puzzles, or the audio drama, or the Sleeping Princess, although they were all compelling.
At my job, I sit in a cubicle all day, writing web pages, answering user calls, working on server projects, but essentially, I do it alone. I'm not a big fan of my job, its boring, i can't connect with any of the other people who work here personally or idealogically. So I would fire up the Haunted Apiary in a firefox tab every morning and keep it open all day (now you know why my post count is disgustly embarrassingly high). Reading what you all had to say, giving my insight, laughing at the jokes, wracking my brain at the puzzles. It was as if my physical body was here in my cube, but my mind was in big living room, sitting around with my friends. The best part of that, is that unfiction/argn will still be here for a long long time. And new alternate reality games will be created for us to enjoy. I can't wait to see what's next.

So come on Trynian, don't go anywhere just yet!

I agree...I came here a fan of Halo. Now that ilovebees.com is over, not only am I a Halo FANATIC...but I'm now a newly crowned ARG fan. I definitely want to stick around to see what else is in store for the future.

My name.

I'm always surprised to see my name.


I've met a fantastic group of people here at unfiction, and I will be remaining. I am not certain which ARG I will participate in next, certainly many will pale in comparison to those run by the creators of The Beast and The Hive (the name at the top of the credits on the ILB DVD).

But, regardless, I sincerely hope to remain in contact with you all. Some may drift away, but I'm sure that those who remain interested in ARGs and those who are interested in Halo/Halo2 and Xbox Live will have many hours ahead of them (and me) to get to know you (and me) better.

I look forward to the fun.

I second the motion, Mazian. Though ILB has set the expectation bar rather high...

-- Steve'd like to thank Bobeo for the kind sentiments, too... this has been an E-ticket ride, and the other riders in the car were as much fun as the event itself.

[Phaedra]

I'll miss you, too

I've often wondered, when this is over, what will I do with myself. I've spent every day browsing the forums, trying to help the cause, making a post every now and then, always fearful of the trout. I've listened to every wav file. And have listened to them all in one sitting now. *Phew* Talk about an endurance test.

I have emailed Dana to see if she could send me a DVD, and for that, I desperately hope I get one, to have something to remember this whole experience by. This was my first delving into the ARG experience, it will certainly not be my last.

To the PMs: You guys were amazing. I was wondering some days ago that you guys deserve an award of some kind. I hope this whole thing doesn't sink into obscurity because this was an amazing experience, something that transcends the ordinary boundaries of "entertainment" or "advertising". I have spent more time on this ARG than any video game.

Of course I'll stick around the forums until the endgame fervor dies down, and we get the PM Q+A. After that, who knows...

So long and thanks for all the bees...

I've said this before in the IRC chat, but I honestly think this is one of the best online communities I have ever come across. Such a tightly-knit web of thoughtful, friendly people - it's like nothing I've ever really seen before.

I loved ILB, but I think I loved it even more because of this forum. All of you are wonderful. I can fully believe that Kristen Rutherford honestly appreciates and loves us all all for her interactions with us. I can say I've had a great time doing everything I can to be a part of the proceedings.

Salutations to everyone here. Red balloons all around!

I wrote this as a final message sent to the princess/melissa upon her announcement that she was leaving, and I'll write it to you guys now,

This is what I do when I don't want to say goodbye: :...<

[Thoth]

I and a few others are trying to organize a 'thank you and goodbye' project to send to the PMs and voice actors from ILB in this thread:

http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7925

Most of the posts here would be a perfect fit for this project, and I would love it if any or all of you would like to contribute.

[AlexofMaceidon]

I do wonder what the next arg will bee (i'm going to make those jokes for months to come) I think I'll check those other arg's linked at the unfiction page!


its just crazy enough to work!

[maskdmirag]

in response to that first thread, I have to say, after meeting kristin at the san francisco event, how she reacted to meeting the players she talked to voer the phone, everything about her. It wasn't acting, she truly meant it when she said she loves us.

I also love the way she signed my dvd, "All your bees are belong to op" Kristin rocks!

[HitsHerMark]

Awww, now you're going to make me cry again!
