I'm feeling zen this morning, so am able to express the opinion that the gradual build will lead to something sweeter in the end (or am I feeling Tantric? )

I think PPC is going to be something a lot longer term than AotH...although I'm sorely tempted to have a go at that one, have invested too much anticipation here!

I'll throw my hat over the fence, and say that i think PPC might be back by the Da Vinci Code movie comming out in 2006 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0382625/

there has been alot of refrencing back to the Da Vinci Code book in the update threads. In example the Phee Phi Pho Phum being change so that the constant "Phi" is there, the cache file names that were assembled from segments of e, the post card number being avagdro's * e, and no the firebox ad which states, "The Matrix meets Alice in Wonderland meets the Da Vinci Code."

and to all that say the firebox ad is to blatent and can therefore be disregarded remeber Da Vinci liked hidding things in plain sight ... and so did Dan Brown in the book The Da Vinci Code.

backers to game

Oh, I'm kinda wishing I hadn't looked at that. Obvious but unexpected at the same time. However, I'm not going to fully believe that until there's some concrete evidence. Move along.

Re: backers to game

[rach_hunt]

yeah, thats fair enough.

just thought it might help to stop some people worrying that the card sales are purely a means of raising revenue and so the game doesnt become just a big con really.

concrete evidence would be good too but thats what im going with until something proves otherwise.

[rach_hunt]

well, i cant really reveal my true sources as it could be grounds for someone being fired.

sorry. i work for an advertising agency and you get to know quite a few people who work for other ad agencies and pr firms. but saying that it could be a big wind up - although im inclined to say not. i just thought itd be worth bearing in mind as it would mean that they would have ample funds to be able to construct the game themselves, without having to rely on income from card sales.

i say, leave this conversation hidden in here and maybe people will see it, maybe they wont. doesnt need to be shouted about, i just found it quite interesting.

[Morning_Star]

So not exactly spec, but kind of...could be about that i suppose i wonder how they'll encorporate it...

Maybe we are really searching for

sorry rach, but i don't believe what you say about the backer... it's a good guess, and I reckon your contact probably just assumed this on the back of timing etc. which sort of links in with your suggested backer's ad campaign.

I may be wrong but I'd lay money on it being nothing to do with the backer you suggest

[James Lyon]

Beside that backer seems a bit funny considering

I've a fair few ideas on who the 'main' sponsor is, but I'll leave it for my mind alone until I can provide some concrete evidence.

Just wondering though.. in a thread which is entirely about who's backing it why are people using spoiler tags to cover up their spec?
