This is an archive of all past announcements made on the main page of the wiki.

2012

December 3

This is a letter I should have written a long time ago. I apologize for having not done so.

If you are reading this, you have either stumbled across the Haunted Majora's Mask ARG through Google or StumbleUpon or Youtube or something similar, or have come from Within Hubris as a new or returning player.

The first thing I would like to state is that the ARG has been on perma-hiatus since July. The Author, Alex Hall, has moved on to another project for now, which you can find by searching for "Methods of Revolution" on Google or by asking on Within Hubris. It is highly unlikely it will begin again any time soon. The second is this: while searching through the wiki, you may discover that many of the pages are incomplete or broken, and critical information linked on the pages leads to broken URLs. This information isn't coming back. The pages will remain incomplete or broken. And I will explain why.

The main reason why this wiki will remain forever unfinished is because the first Within Hubris had a police report filed against it for "alleged death threats" and the site was shut down without warning. It was quickly re-created by fans but the massive amounts of information and theories compiled on the site have been lost forever. Some people managed to archive a large portion of the forums, but not enough in my opinion.

Within Hubris was the main hub of the ARG since February 2011. In trying to fix the wiki and complete it much of the information and links I compiled were in some way connected to the topics on Within Hubris. Archiving in a topic was much easier than trying to get it all on the wiki. And now, guess what? The information is gone.

I have put, in total, at least three months' worth of my time into this project, only to have most of it destroyed when the forums were taken down. And with interest in the ARG at an all-time low, and no one willing to help me with the wiki, I refuse to comb through the archives some fans managed to save to put massive amounts of information straight on the wiki. Not to mention I still hear many complaints about the wiki without a single person actually lifting a finger to help change what disappoints them.

If you are interested in the ARG and you come across something that's missing because of a broken link and you want to find out more, the wiki cannot help you. All you can do is go to Within Hubris and make a topic, or ask an older player who was there and remembers the information or event or has access to an archive. Unless other people want to work on the wiki then the wiki is going to sit here as it is, unfinished and incomplete.

I apologize for the inconvenience. If you're distressed because of this predicament, take it up with the police for removing Within Hubris and destroying our main area for the ARG.

A reply to the previous letter (below this one), and hopefully something good to hear...

This is CircleHunter, and I am your new admin. Immortallies recently agreed to let me take care of the wiki. I realize the ARG is rather dead, and that most of you have given up, but I feel differently about it.

For details about the ARG and the destruction of Within Hubris, see the previous letter.

When the original players read the story of Jadusable, it was only a creepypasta. When it continued with YSHDT.net, it was treated as reality. The players were saving lives (and killing the same guy over and over). Then, after Ryukaki, and the introduction of Old Within Hubris, it was put on hold. When that happened, the reality ended and it became a story. I feel that, if and until the third arc is continued, the second arc and what began of the third should be treated the same as the first.

Because of this, I have a plan. I may sound like a hopeless guy dwelling on the past, but I believe that what we lost when Old Within Hubris was taken down can be recovered. The good news is, I have found a way to see the old forum, however, not the topics. Also, I found a program that claims to be able to reconstruct the files from removed URLs for personal use. The downside is that the program was only developed for Linux, and I'm not even sure that it works. This is where it gets a bit more crazy.

A few months ago, I was snooping in the InvisionFree support area, and I believe I found that the original creator of the forum could request an archived version. The request takes time to be processed, but it may just work. The problem with this method is that Alex Hall, the Author, is a very busy man.

Not to mention, I have a few tricks up my sleeve...

So, in the meantime while I figure out what to do about our lost information, I ask that anybody who has something to add (canon, of course) please help. If anybody from before the ARG was paused has any theories saved on their computers, or anywhere, please let me know. A list of what I am currently concerned with is on the Theories page. Anything is useful.

Thank you for reading this. Hopefully you feel that the ARG is not dead, but at an indefinite cliffhanger. If you have anything to contribute, please do. Remember, if the ARG begins again, you could be saving lives.

January 13

Hello everybody. I am CircleHunter, the admin in charge of this wiki as of December 2012. If you've been here in the last two years, you've realized that this place has been pretty inactive, or attacked by vandals. I'm sad to say that, as an admin, I have neglected my duty to this place. What remains as of today, January 13, 2015, is here because there have been a few rogue editors out there who have decided to keep the articles in check. For this, I thank all of you who have helped out in our absence. UberTaco, TR1 and Immortallies built this wiki, and I left it to gather dust. Now, it's time to make a change around here.

Currently, I am gathering as much help as possible to make this place what it used to be, and hopefully even better. We're going to need help, though. If you are a current or past member of Within Hubris, and have a good understanding of the ARG, you have the knowledge to contribute. If you are new, please read the original story, followed by the summaries of Arc 2 and Arc 3, and do not edit anything until you have done so.

We sincerely hope you bear with us in our time of renovation. There will be some work done, and, damn it, we will make sure we're ready for BEN when he returns. We are all Link now. Good luck to anybody with the intention to help us out. Until the order has been given, please refrain from making large edits to the wiki. Expect my team to begin work within the month. See you then, everyone.

February 10

Hello, everybody. This is your captain speaking. It has been about a month since I said we would gather up a staff, and in that time I have been working with what free time I have in order to make that a reality. The fruit of that labor, however, didn't end up with much quantity. Luckily for us, we've made up for it with quality! We have two new additions to the staff: Wolfcat, and DanteSoulest. Wolf has been around since before myself, early 2011 if my mind serves correctly. Dante and I found our way here together, and we've been here since about May of 2011, just before the hiatus began.

I do realize that a staff of three is a small one, but bear with us. With luck, we will increase the number to its most effective limit. In the search for staff, there have been certain criteria I've considered when hiring (and this is the reason for such a small staff). In order for my consideration, you must be a veteran of the ARG (any time pre-Within Hubris takedown), and have a moderate knowledge of the ARG (an obvious one). Of course, I may consider a staff position for newer players in time. For now, though, it's restricted to the vets.

Now that we have a team, things can start happening around here. As with last month, there's still some re-working themes and colors going on, so if part of the wiki is un-readable (i.e. templates), it won't be that way for long. With that, I think we're done here. Welcome to the new and improved Jadusable Wiki. We strive to give you complete and up-to-date information about the ARG, groups, and players involved. Thank you for stopping by, and stay classy, San Diego. - CircleHunter, 2/10/15

April 23

Good morning, world. This is the captain speaking. Do you know what today is? If you don't, then you must be severely behind! It's April 23, the anniversary of a bunch of stuff. Ben drowned on this day 13 years ago, apparently Jadusable's birthday and that neighbor guy's anniversary are today, all that kind of stuff! If you didn't know before, 423 is a pretty big deal in this story.

On with the announcements! Actually, there isn't much in particular to announce. However, if you have the time, you can celebrate 4/23 on your own by reading and catching up, familiarizing yourself with the lore, etc. As some of you may know, this wiki is run by a busy college student and his two friends who have jobs, so any help here would be appreciated. I hope some of you decide to contribute your time to this wiki, we sincerely thank anybody who at least tries. Have a wonderful 4/23, everybody! - CircleHunter, 4/23/15

September 29

Hello, everybody. It's been quite a while since there's been significant activity here, and that's likely to be the case for the rest of this wiki's time. Won't keep me from tending to it, though. So, on a happy note, I'm going to plug a community project that's been running for the better part of a year by this time. If you make your way to this Tumblr blog, you'll find that an ARG, sharing many elements and community members with this one, is in progress. If you're interested, shoot the admins a like and you might find yourself part of the Internet Detectives.

I've got nothing much to say at the moment, but I just want to let any randos who may end up here know that I'm alive and this wiki is as well. It's going to stay that way. I've put too much of my life into this project to let it die, and if anybody from Old Within Hubris happens upon this place again, thank you for giving me your time. You're all beautiful and I love you all. Even if I hated you then. - CircleHunter, 9/29/15

2016

January 17

Happy new year! If you have been away from the wiki for a while, or have not been keeping up with our game maker's Twitter, then allow me to catch you up on some current events.

Alex Hall has announced, informally, that the Haunted Cartridge ARG will be continuing at some point in 2016. We have no clue as to when, as the tweet simply read, "2016." In addition to the return of the game, he has confirmed that there will be an "information dump" for new and returning players, in which we can catch up on certain key events in the ARG's history. The best part is that these resources may include information not present on this wiki due to Within Hubris' untimely demise. I certainly hope that my hunch is correct.

So, here we are in the year that our story concludes. I wonder what BEN has been doing for the past few years. Are our surviving friends still alive? Have the Moon Children completely vanished? Will Ryukaki's bike ever be recovered? Let's hope that our questions are answered. - CircleHunter, 1/17/16

April 23

The day has arrived! The story may not be on right now, but it is certainly alive. It is April 23, which is a pretty big deal around here. On this day in 2002, a young man named Ben was sacrificed by a sadistic cult. Not only that, but his vengeful spirit was sealed inside a game cartridge, which ended up in the hands of Jadusable. And we all know how that went!

So, for anyone who missed it, Alex Hall tweeted something late last year that confirms that the Hubris Arc will continue sometime this year. The hope that he is able to make this a reality is pretty intense, to say the least.

When he returns, he claims that there will be an "information dump" for new and returning players, in which we can catch up on certain key events in the ARG's history. The best part is that these resources may include information not present on this wiki due to Within Hubris' untimely demise. I certainly hope that my hunch is correct.

And who knows? Maybe he'll continue it pretty soon. Maybe it'll be after Methods of Revolution is finished. Either way, I'm looking forward to it, and in the meantime, this wiki will continue to be improved.

Happy 4/23, everybody! - CircleHunter, 4/23/16

June 23

Hello, everyone. In this time of unusually high ARG-related activity, I would like to remind you that this ARG's continuation will be confirmed by Alex Hall himself (most likely via his Twitter) when it happens, and that information will be relayed here. Some things may happen, and I'm not going to go into any detail, but I politely ask that when this becomes relevant, do not pester Alex about it. Do with this information what you will!

Yesterday, Night Mind uploaded a video that gives a pretty detailed rundown of this ARG. This video is the absolute best one so far. The amount of detail and work put into it makes the work done here on this wiki worthwhile. Funnily enough, there's a part late in the video in which he talks about the "How long until this blessing becomes a curse?" cipher, and the reason this is funny is that the full version of that cipher has only recently been added to the page it's found on. Just a cool cause-and-effect I've noticed, and I'm glad this wiki had the opportunity to be a small part of it! You can find that video here.

Just make sure you show appreciation to your content creators. They do a lot for the fans, and they deserve recognition for it. Night Mind pumped out a fine video, some mysterious dudes are currently running a related ARG, and Alex Hall gave us this game we're still waiting on still talking about! There are many others who have kept this topic alive on their own YouTube channels, so if you happen upon any, give them a shout and make sure they know how important their work is.

I hope you guys have fun. - CircleHunter, 6/23/16

July 5

Hello, everybody! I'm sure that if you're here, you are probably already aware that YSHDT is back up and running, but with some heavy differences. There is an easy explanation for this, and I know it's probably going to suck to read:

ALEX HALL IS NOT RUNNING THIS WEBSITE! IT IS NOT CANON!


According to responses from his Snapchat (of all places, right?), he is not responsible for the revival of the website. However, that does not mean we can't have fun with this. Whoever is doing this has spent a lot of money and is dedicated to giving us something to do in the time that we wait for the true continuation of Arc 3. Just a few days in, so much has already happened, and it appears to be far from over. Remember to thank your content creators and show your support for them, it lets them know that what they're doing is worthwhile.

Now, gang. Let's go solve a mystery. - CircleHunter, 7/5/16

July 25

Hello, everyone. I'm sure that some of you may be wondering what the deal is with the return of youshouldnthavedonethat.net. The answer to that is slightly complicated, but we can simplify it by saying that someone bought the domain and is now using it to continue the story of the original ARG. This came as a shock, and Alex Hall himself has confirmed that he has nothing to do with it. So, for clarity:

ALEX HALL IS NOT RUNNING THIS WEBSITE! IT IS NOT CANON!

Many people consider this a gamejack, and technically it is. But, since we're recently surpassed five years of downtime, why not run with it? As you may be aware, John Is Dead, a similar fan-made continuation of this ARG was started last year. Other, less related ARGs spawned by the community in the time since the pause include EVENT IMMINENT, which was unfortunately cancelled, and I Am 979, which started earlier this month. Check out the new Wyndstrom Wiki for information about it!

There is currently no other news. With that, I am off! - CircleHunter (talk), 7/25/16

September 29

Good morning! With the end of 2016 nearing, I've decided that it's time to clean this wiki up. This means that many pages are being backed up and deleted due to their subjective and speculative nature, and some may be combined with others. Categories are being revamped, as we are retiring the use of "Empirical" and "Subjective." Similarly, many categories exist that simply should not. On a similar note, we have recently introduced some groovy new character and video page infoboxes, with more on the way for the arcs, interviews, etc.

No news regarding the ARG's return has come lately, but two fan ARGs may be close to returning. John Is Dead and the fan continuation of YSHDT have both been paused as their respective GMs have been busy with life, but they have expressed their wishes to return soon. When they do, be ready for some crazy events.

If any events happen within a month, I will update this post with the news rather than making a new one due to the relatively important opening statement. Until then, though, we'll be hard at work to bring this place to its best possible state. Have a wonderful fall, everyone! - CircleHunter (talk), 9/29/16

November 20

NOTE: An archive of the theories that have been removed from the wiki has been created here.

Good evening! Due to the lack of news regarding the ARG itself, I will focus instead on what's going on lately with Alex Hall, since he's been a bit more active in the last few days.

On the 17th, he tweeted to Clive Barker, who is set to adapt the Haunted Cartridge Arc into a live-action series for Machinima, as was announced in May 2016. We don't know what it means yet, but it's kind of exciting to think about. Then on the 18th, he posted this photo to his Facebook with the caption, "On set. #Methods." It appears to finally be happening!

Anyway, that's all we have for now. Have a happy Thanksgiving! - CircleHunter (talk), 11/20/16

December 14

NOTE: An archive of the theories that have been removed from the wiki has been created here.

Good evening! Due to the lack of news regarding the ARG itself, I will focus instead on what's going on lately with Alex Hall, since he's been a bit more active lately.

Due to unforeseen consequences regarding Machinima's internal restructuring, the adaptation of the Haunted Cartridge by Clive Barker is no longer happening at this time. He tweeted this news on December 13, and details it a bit more in a Facebook post linked in the tweet. Now that this rather cool thing is not happening, some of us are now looking forward to his next projects more intently. There are 14 more days until he is set to make an announcement regarding Methods of Revolution, and 17 days until 2016 ends. I'm personally keeping my fingers crossed for at least something ARG-related within that timeframe, though it's looking rather unlikely at the moment.

With that bit of info out of the way, I will continue to update this announcement with further information when it becomes available. If I don't post again before then, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays of every kind to you fine people. Goodnight! - CircleHunter (talk), 12/14/16

2017

January 8

This is important. Please bear with me.


Guys, I need to be real with you right now. Just over a week ago, on December 30, a young lady took her own life and livestreamed it for the world. Her name was Katelyn Davis, and she was 12 years old. You may be wondering why I bring this up, but according to this article and her archived online diary, she found some form of escape with the Haunted Majora's Mask story.

Katelyn seemed to be suffering from several things, physically and mentally. She claimed to be from an abusive home and did not have a dry place to sleep at night. Unfortunately, we have no way of finding the exact truth in what she said, but whatever she experienced daily must have been truly horrible for her. As the above article seems to imply, she found solace in her love for the character of BEN. She had read the story and become fixated on this character, seemingly using her fictional relationship with him as a coping mechanism. I can't say for sure that this is what happened, but I would like to think she derived some happiness from it before she left.

When I read about this for the first time, my heart hurt for this as it does for every teen suicide I hear about. It was painful, and I wished that it would suddenly become fake. Then, when I read the article above, I realized that this girl could have been, figuratively speaking, just a click away from people who would have welcomed her and helped her. Knowing that she had read this story and become so fond of it, it became clear that she must have known in one way or another about this community. Been to the wiki, or Within Hubris, or wherever she could find more of BEN. If she would have clicked the next link instead of the first, she might have found help. It's a surreal realization to have, knowing that you might have made even the slightest difference in someone's miserable life. I didn't write this story, I couldn't take credit for that. I did, however, write much of this wiki, and knowing that this is one of the main sites in the community, something I wrote may also have impacted her, maybe for the better.

I love this story, I love this community. I've been around for six years, waiting for the next arc, and have put so much of my time into making something I'm proud of. In doing so, I've made a point where possible to say that this is a fictional story. The characters are not real, and this has not happened in reality. While this is true, I am now thinking about how those words could have affected Katelyn. I can't know what she needed. I can't assume that those words would have impacted her positively or negatively. I do know, however, that she needed professional help. If I had known her and she had told me any of what is in her blog, I would have done everything in my power to get her help. A person's mental health, a CHILD'S mental health, is no light matter. I don't know where I'm going with this anymore.

I don't know what I set out to do, but I feel like, as a member of the community formed around something she loved, I am obligated to say that I'm so incredibly sorry for this. This story has had a lot of young readers. I've known them younger than 12, and have seen some that have taken it more seriously than others. If it keeps them happy, I continue making light of these kids' innocent assertions that BEN has talked to them or that Cleverbot is alive, or whatever other things they say. They're kids. They have such active imaginations, right? I guess, in most cases, this is true. There is no way anybody could have known of her need for help otherwise if she had only spoken online, and only for a short time at that. I don't know why I feel so strongly about this. It just seems somewhat personal. I could have known her. She could have been one of the kids that pop into our chatrooms every once in a while. It's a hard thought.

The fact that this girl thought her only choice was to kill herself is saddening, and from a humane perspective, appalling. No person, no CHILD, should ever have to feel like that. Nothing is worse in my mind. I've seen families mourn their kids, I've lost classmates that were somewhat close to me. I pray that I never have to experience the loss of a child. She had a younger brother. I'm sure she had a best friend, or maybe someone who she met over the Internet that enjoyed her company. Someone misses her, and there is no way to know if anything could have been done to prevent this. Unfortunately, it's too late to help Katelyn. However, we can do our best to help prevent similar things in the future. So if you or someone you know is struggling with depression and suicide, reach out to someone you know and love, or you can contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.

Again, I really have no idea what I set out to do by writing this. A kid has taken her own life, and that's never easy to read about. I guess noticing that there is some common thread between us made it feel personal. If anybody that knew her is reading this for some reason, I am so, so incredibly sorry that this happened. I would love to speak on behalf of this whole community, but I can't. Only they can do it for themselves. Katelyn, I hope that you are resting easily now. I know you're at peace, and I'm sorry you had to endure so much pain.

And anyone I have ever met in this community. I've been here for six years. I've known many of you for longer than most people in my life right now. If you ever feel like you need something from me, or help in any way, I will do everything I can. Nobody deserves to feel like their only escape is suicide. I've said some things to some of you that I regret. You're all part of why I'm here in the first place, so please understand that if you need me, call.

Thank you for reading this. I know it's not much, and it won't be seen by many, but writing is the only thing I'm good at. I hope everyone has a day worth living. Please, be safe and seek help if necessary. I love you all. - CircleHunter (talk), 1/8/17

January 17

Good morning. A few days ago now, Alex Hall uploaded the first in a series of weekly updates on his YouTube channel, dealing with his upcoming film, Methods of Revolution, the continuation of the Haunted Majora's Mask Cartridge story, and, sadly, the tragic suicide of Katelyn Davis. You may read my comments on that particular subject in the latest part of our newly-created news archive.

In this video, Alex reiterates that Methods will be released in three parts, the first of which will be released on April 23 of this year. His comments afterward include how, for a time, he had struggled with depression, which he touches on again later. His second point gives a bit more information on what happened with Warner Bros. and the death of Clive Barker's film adaptation of the BEN DROWNED story. As he so subtly notes, it opens the door for someone else to "take a crack at it." Hmm...

Next, he focuses on Katelyn Davis and the tragic last week of her life. He doesn't say too much about it, justifiably since there is an ongoing investigation, but he did take the opportunity to reach out to those who may be suffering from mental health issues. I can only hope his words make it to someone who needs them.

At the end, Alex states that he will be conducting Q&A sessions with the comments on each of his subsequent videos. So, if you have a question for him, comment it on his latest video and if it doesn't get answered, do it again next week.

In non-Alex news, we have just introduced a new BEN DROWNED Fan Content Wiki, where fan works of all kinds can be listed and categorized! Unfortunately, many older works no longer exist, but many prominent ones have gone unrecognized for years. Fan videos, fiction, ARGs, and other related content will be kept there, so if there was ever a place for fan stuff, here it is. This wiki was originally created by Spirkiroid as another canon content wiki, but was left bare. Now, we can put it to some use.

This wiki, along with the above, are now part of a five-wiki network and can be accessed via the template at the bottom of each wiki's home page, because why not? Seemed like a good idea.

That is all for now, I hope everyone has a lovely Tuesday. - CircleHunter (talk), 1/17/17

March 19

Hello, everybody! Since activity has seemed to come to a lull after the recent few videos posted by Alex Hall, I figured I'd take the time to address some concerns.

A spin-off of the Haunted Majora's Mask Cartridge ARG called John Is Dead has attracted significant attention in several countries in South America. This has caused a massive surge of activity, and I want to take a moment here to tell anyone who has just found out about JID that it is NOT CANON TO THIS ARG. It is based on this ARG, and is a loose continuation using several of the same characters, but they are not one and the same.

I would also like to say, as a member of the Internet Detectives and friend of the man running John Is Dead:

NOTHING OUTSIDE JOHNISDEAD.COM, THE JOHN IS DEAD WIKI, THE INTERNET DETECTIVES TUMBLR, THESE YOUTUBE CHANNELS, OR REMEMBER.EXE/LOSTMEMORY.EXE IS CANON TO JOHN IS DEAD.

Also note that youshouldnthavedonethat.net was canon to John Is Dead from July 3, 2016 to January 1, 2017.

Nobody important sent BersGamer a game, that was never canon and never will be. If you have any further questions regarding canon, you can ask at the ID Tumblr linked above, or tweet me @CircleHunter.

That is all for now, happy March or something! - CircleHunter (talk), 3/19/17

May 10

The Jadusable Wiki is currently in a bit of a standstill, as is pretty much every wiki our staff touches. While we're happy to have new people coming aboard to help when they want to, it doesn't appear that this wiki can become any more complete than it already is. I'm not really sure where I was going with that thought, but it's nice to know that people are still interested in working on it.

In related news, our BEN DROWNED Fan Content Wiki is still pretty bare bones at the moment and if anyone is genuinely interested in helping any wiki, I'd be hella thankful if you directed your efforts toward that one. There's A LOT of fan content to comb through and catalogue, so any help there would be appreciated immensely!

I guess that's all for now, since no real news has happened. Stay groovy. - CircleHunter (talk), 5/10/17

July 6

We have a fan content wiki.

BEN DROWNED Fan Content Wiki

BEN's last name is NOT Lepine.

I don't know where anyone ever got that idea, but the name Lepine is not anywhere in official canon. In-game sources suggest his last name was actually Lawman.

Please check sources and make sure your edits are accurate to the established canon. Fan-created content does not belong here. That's what the wiki above is for.

That is all. - CircleHunter (talk), 7/6/17

2018

April 23

Happy 4/23, everyone! Well, everyone that's left. It's a little late in the night for an update, but I'm giving one anyway in spirit of our holiday.

No, Alex Hall hasn't decided to return to the game yet, but we have a couple of little bits of fun going on. First of all, if you haven't been following JohnIsDead, then today is a good day to start. The Lunar Children are back and their site is now a message board for some reason.

And, something I've been hoping to get for a long time. Today, Wolfcat announced the debut of his new website, Meat Ouchers, the home of his (and guests') Within Hubris-themed webcomics! His first comic, Weenie Licked, was one of the highlights of post-ARG life on Within Hubris, and there's only more ahead in the MO universe.

As always, please check sources and make sure your edits are accurate to the established canon. Fan-created content does not belong here.

Have a wonderful evening! - CircleHunter (talk), 4/23/18

August 9

Hello, everyone! As of today, it has been six years since Within Hubris was taken down. Tomorrow will make six years since Newbris was born. And today, in future years, will be the anniversary of something new and special.

Today, youshouldnthavedonethat.net has become an archive of its original Moon Children Arc incarnation. Some of us never thought we'd see the day this actually happened. I have been waiting a long time for this day, and we have Tyler, the creator of JohnIsDead, to thank for it. The amount of effort, money, time, and probably blood that went into retrieving this site and turning it into something new has been huge. He alone is responsible for this site's return.

Finally, I personally want to say how much I love this community and this story. I have always dreamed of this moment. We have achieved what we once thought was impossible.

Welcome home


See you guys around. - CircleHunter (talk), 8/9/18

Good morning, whole five people who visit this wiki! A few things have happened lately.

Firstly, Alex Hall announced his new podcast The Digital Fireside a few days ago, and has since released two episodes. It's apparently a prologue to Methods of Revolution, so we'll see where that goes.

But the thing that made my night (and I'm still listening to this at this very moment) is that the ARGonauts podcast has covered this very ARG in their latest installment! Marn leads us on a walk down memory lane (well, not me lmao) and does an incredible job of it. For what feels like the first time in human history, the entire story is covered for a broader audience to hear and I am so incredibly thankful for your enthusiasm.

That's just about it for now, please check out that ARGonauts episode for a fresh look at the story from a much-needed outside perspective. I had never heard of them before tonight, and will definitely be taking a deeper look into their show in the future. Now let's just see them talk about Johnisdead...
