Excellent find, @mike. Otis had a friend of his set up his Facebook just recently. Perhaps Dorthy (Dorothy?) had the same, thus the new-ness and the (possibly wrong) birthday?

Things to remember: Not getting an email doesn’t mean you are forgotten or shamed. I didn’t get a press release, but did get this message from Macy.

The company’s figurehead and leader recently came down with a horrible case of psychosis-inducing diabetes, cut ’em a little slack.

@maenicole – This one?

Shameless plug: If you ever fall behind, I keep a weekly recap thread at the subreddit that links to things like that

@lexthewolf – She responds sometimes, and doesn’t other times. She’s a person and I imagine that getting your email bombarded with our requests means that she only has the ability or energy to respond to a portion of them.

What did yours say?

I honestly really thought the shadow thing was a red herring for a while, something to keep us busy. But all this talking of the thing that can’t copy Noah… that’s exciting.

My interpretation of what @coryphella said echoes my own wishes. I personally don’t think that having The Powers That Be come forward to deal with this particular issue was a bad thing. I think that this case needed their intervention.

However, I get the feeling that some are feeling like more reassurances and more creator interaction would be a…[Read more]

I strongly support the idea of satellite meetings to cheer others on.

Hell, I have a satellite meeting every time there’s an event.

In my living room.

Alone.

Normally crying.

@superstar – The easiest way to deal with things like this speaks to the Never Silent motto. If you get a call, come to the forums. Talk about it. The Creators are on higher alert and so am I. If someone starts talking about something that isn’t In Game, that’s gonna get shut down so fast that you’ll get diabetes-based-paranoia

I want to clarify a little, been thinking on @mike‘s point and I didn’t really say this as clearly as I should have.

This verification thing isn’t a cheat code. If you call me asking if the janitor at the event is really in game or not, that’s not the type of thing I’m going to be able to answer. This verification service is only going to be done…[Read more]

@mike absolutely a good point. I will be very much trying to limit how much hand holding I give to people, and also remember that I am not the creators so won’t have the full story. I very much encourage and will be pressing for people to use that service as rarely as possible but if someone needs to have some reassurance that the geotag that they…[Read more]

No problem, @larry. Sorry, I may have come off a little too harsh there, too. But trust in @the-creators needs to be maintained for any of this to work

Let’s be very clear about something. @the-creators have NEVER been in-game. They are the word of God. If they wanted some message like that, they would have used one of the other accounts. @the-creators has ALWAYS been out of game, full stop, end of message. They NEED to be because the moment that account gets used in game, they lose the ability…[Read more]

Making some puzzles as a tribute and a fan creation, making it known what it is? You’re cool.

Attempting to pass off your puzzles as the Creators’, and causing people to waste time and effort on your lie? You’re a dick.

@wanda102 brings up a good point. We should probably cool it with the Hug of Death. I’ve been guilty of targeting the headache thing, I’ll stop going forward
