Game News and Topics of Discussion
- As we reported earlier this week, Perplex City gets more VC funding. Also, is the ARG portion of Season One over? As well, will a new writer (Mathilde Madden) bring a different view point to the Mind Candy team?
- AV and Cassie Is Watching move forward with new content. How can players of CiW keep track of what is and what isn't in-game?
- Win a copy of Cathy's Book! Listen to the netcast to find out how!
- Konamouse at the unforums pitches in with a helpful Story So Far thread related to Sammeeees.
- The 4400 fan-created ARG goes thud, according to the puppetmaster. Why do games go under, sometimes needlessly?
Puzzle of the Week
- Perplex City card #256 - Billion to One. See billion2one.org for more information.
Listener Mail
- A Nonymous doesn't like the length of episode one, and thinks we need to be more expertish. Also, wants us to "Bring. It."
- QBKooky liked hearing about new ARG content delivery methods.
- Lou appreciated our rundown of the What's Hot list.
Happy Halloween!
- Sean dresses up and dances! Caution: addictive animated .gif awaits!

Actually, the Juggernaught of the X-man movies is much different from the Juggernaught of the comics. In the comics Juggernaught is Professor X's stepbrother, and his powers are not caused by a mutation such as those of the other characters, they are casued by a mysterious red crystal that he discovered while both he and Professor X were soldiers in Korea during the Korean war. As well, he recently had a change of heart and joined Professor X as one of the X-men. Good times. :)
Oh, and, that was a SHAWEEET podcast! Thanks guys and girls!
