This whole thing is going to end like Star Trek the Motion Picture with Chris Roberts and Derek Smart making out and Solar Plebian is going to fly out of the resulting explosion. It's the best possible outcome and I'm predicting it now.

Palisader posted:Some time around 2005, I found this ARG that was set up in a neat way. I really wish i could remember the name. There were a series of puzzles all set up in circles. Solve enough on one circle and you could go on to the next one. The puzzles were very esoteric and required a lot of google (which wasn't as sophisticated then) and often actual go-to-the-library research. If you made it to the inner circle, you had to solve all 4 puzzles to get coordinates to a place where the prize was buried. I never even came close, but I hear that those who did finally had to work together to solve all 4. It was a whole lot of fun. Apropos of nothing, does this sound familiar to anyone else? It's really bugging me that I can't remember the name.

ELE jpegs, a mere $300 considering they will certainly triple in price once the extinction level event is released to kickstarter backers.

Once there, copy paste the massive wall of gibberish text that was posted a while ago. That will get you to the right section of the library. Then go to Wall 4, Shelf 3, Volume 11, Page 203. Tada!

Ag Bengip posted:Hey, Derek! The information brought to light in the hidden message did leave me completely astounded and disgusted, but I think I can say without leaking any incriminating or otherwise sensitive information that I still had a lot of unanswered questions after it all sunk in. Can we expect any more details about this soon? Yes, this is just a part of a bigger reveal. Hence the code message in this first one.

I collected a fair amount of the cards and would have one in my office each week with mini prizes for people who could solve them. It was a lot of fun. Still have a huge stack of cards somewhere. I hope they make another season at some point. I am thousands of posts behind, but I assume the coded message was absolutely nothing? Probably only fun to figure out if you like puzzles? Contrary to past evidence, I doubt even the D would be stupid enough to spill anything of value whatsoever and give hints to crack it. Anyone who thought otherwise is silly. I am sure he'll claim it's totally still happening though. Just you wait guys. [Some phrase run in to the ground]

Sperglord posted:Derek said that EightAce has revised his opinion of CIG's cash reserves. I tend to agree with Derek here, as EightAce first stood ed saying CIG was low on cash and, later, said Derek was entirely right. Derek hypothesized that CIG was feeding employees misleading information about cash levels.
