 		Hey, ILB vet here. I'm working on catching up on reading, but what colony should I join? And how do I get a password for them?

 		You've got to find someone from that colony and they'll give you the team number.

 		from what I've read, ARGolonists looks like the one I'd like to join. Would someone be so generous as to send me the key?

 		ILB fan here too. I'd love to register, but the site seems to be dieing. Is the forum part of the site more stable?

 		looks like the press coverage recently has caught their bandwidth off guard.

edit: just got through! ARGologists ho! All registered and set. Still getting errors on the forums though.

I think that might be partly due to the fact that there are just SOOO many players now. Some teams think that they get points for every post they put in the colony forums or their team forum. They may be running scripts or something to facilitate that. Some messages that I've read indicate that there may be folks trying to "brute force" puzzles (which seems kind of a waste of resources to me). One of the biggest problems that I've found with Ourcolony is that it is a bit buggy.

If you want to join a colony, join ARGolonists. It was originally set up to be a unification of the folks at unfiction and immersion unlimited. I personally, am still hopefull of that dream. Although it is true that ARGolonists would get 10 points per member, there are better ways of gaining points.

Come join the ARGolonists and unite the minds that read between the lines and can see the truth though the lies!

 		the fact that the whole site is done in ASP just confirms for me that its Microsoft. I don't think I've seen a large scale site done in ASP in ages...

P.S. I'd appreciate a rundown of how the game works. When do new puzzles pop up? Things like that. PM me if you don't want to hog the board like I've been doing...
