Retrieval page goes poof too

The memory retrieval page is now 404, so it looks like that page was just overlooked when the others were taken down.

It looks like both Bruce and Dr. Kendra are trying to track AGP down, but have never heard of it and there's no listing for it anywhere. I don't think we had any contact info off the site except for the email address (anyone have a backup copy of any of it to confirm that?)

The whois listing on the domain has the following:
Organization:
AGP, Inc.
Desire Hunter
Upper Mill Road
Burlington County, NJ 08088
US
Phone: 201-555-6754
Email: webmasterSPLATashgrovepark.com

I'm noticing that the phone number is a fake ("555") and that "Desire Hunter," while interesting, is probably not helpful. But we have an address. I wonder if Bruce or Dr. Kendra could check out that address?

Copy of email from AGP

I don't know if this will help, but here is a copy of an email I received from them. If anyone thinks the info from the header will help, let me know. Also, here's the thread showing some more email from there.

Can't all of these prove something? And what happened to Brent Bowers? He was the webmaster. Anyone try to track him down?

Hello from Ash Grove Park!
Thanks for your query about our hours. Currently Ash Grove Park is only open on
weekends from 10AM to 9PM with the exception of select Holidays or special
events, like our recent Valentine's Day Cupid Celebration on Feb. 14th and the
upcoming St. Patty's Day Leprechaun Fest on March 17th. Hope you can make it to
that because it will be truly magical. The Leprechaun Fest on March 17th will
go from 10AM to 7PM.

Thanks again for e-mailing Ash Grove Park!

** Ride the Magic Carousel at Ash Grove Park! **

Danman was in Mexico - is he back?


I'm still in mexico (thank god for internet cafes... only 40 pesos for 40 minutes!) I've been able to get some limited access, but not much. Apparently the ISP server I'm on was banned from chat-solutions, so i havent been able to drop by there. I can access CD's chat, but there hasn't been much activity there. Anyway, mostly wanted to say hello. I'll be back late friday night or sometime saturday. I'll also most likely be on tomorrow evening around 9 EST, so if anyone wants to draft an e-mail for me to send and e-mail it to me at saturn5rocketSPLAThotmail.com, i'd be happy to send it as soon as i get a chance. Hasta la vista!

I know where AGP is on a map, I tried to find it to figure out if it was a real, OOG place before. Smile It's not. Sad

webmaster

I emailed the webmaster at Ash Grove Park to ask about the website and when/if it will be back up. I also threw in a request for "Digitalis" contact info saying I wanted to see if I could hire him for a party. Smile

My guess, is that someone (maybe the wish) has screwed with the website in order to keep people from viewing the video of Meaghan.

I do miss that jewel game though.

Not only the website but the idea that there is such a location. It seems no in game character knows about the place. As if its been wiped from thier memory. The wish knows it messed up and wants to correct the mistakes that have taken place.

Then again this could be like the movie Beautiful Mind and our charcter is just crazy

Dale's email

In the e-mail Dale sent out today he said he may have to get people and drive them out there in order to prove the place exists.

I suddenly foresee this caravan driving out there, only to find ... nothing.

Which will be bad in that it will look like Dale is crazy, but good in that Dale will have to rely more on us than the other in-game characters to help him, since we will still believe him and they will probably conclude that he has some sort of post-traumatic stress disorder.

Ash Grove Park...Unparked and moved on...

I don't care if the park is there or not... in game or not, I'd have to say "I visited the site... I've been on it. TO THIS DAY if I visit the memories page, the server still asks for the username and password and ONLY after I've entered it does it give me an error."

To me, in game or not, the link is still in my browser... if suddenly I didn't remember it... I'd still wonder what that link was for, and why the server wants me to log in....

Logically, no one can say that at least the WEBSITE wasn't there...

And to extrapolate, why would someone build a website for a park that didn't exist???

Spuds

P.S. I noticed, however, that the park wasn't on Sam's map. Smile

I went to check out the memory retrieval page, and instead of a 404 page, i get a user name and password entry page....

AGP archive available

in fact, i have the whole agp site archived, including videos of meaghan, so if they want to claim it never existed, we can quite easily point them to the archive.

of course, this brings us to the real question, which is, if we start showing in-game characters archives that pretty much are self-evidently a game, what happens?

anyway my archives are at http://mopi.org/ctw/

Mopi... he's no dopey...

You are the MASTER archivist.

I've been looking over your stuff as I catch up and get a feel for the PMs of this game. I want to personally thank you for your exhaustive contribution to the game... Smile
