>>109464187>time gating vs event gatingthey are technically different things, yes, but they basically have the exact same effect and can basically be viewed as the same thing. progress is being prevented/restricted in both cases which in effect ruins the ARG experience.
>I never said that timegating didn't happenyou're entire argument in every post has been about how the ARG isn't timegated.
>I agreed that the stream part was timegated, yes. I also said the the stream part was red herring. The real ARG was always the Minecraft server and Win95 computer.no, the post you were responding to (
>>109168614) pointed out the MC server and finding "it" had been timegated (
>>109168415 ). you went back on this once people in the thread started criticizing it. and it doesn't matter if the videos we're red herrings or not, they're still apart of the ARG albeit in a basically useless way.
>Inwas saying that it was meant to work as soon as we found it but that we found it in the wrong order. If we had found IT, then this would gave likely told us how to find the palace with the link to the win95site. Maybe the blackfile site wasn't finished yet, or perhaps they just wanted us to find IT so they tried to convince us to go back. When we didn't do this, then they gave us that clue. But we never found it because of the invasion.firstly, there's no evidence of this at all, you're just blowing something out of proportion and making stuff up just for the sake of defending the ARG. secondly, this is still a timegate, as (according to your explanation above) the website wouldn't have worked until a specific set date, regardless of when we found it. Thirdly, not only would it be a time gate, but also an event gate, as you're saying we needed to accomplish other parts of the ARG first before moving onto this section. So by your explanation, it's both timegated and event-gated. Lastly, disregarding the retarded analysis you gave, we still know for a fact it was timegated, since we couldn't access it before a certain date. We were deliberately being prevented to make progress on it.
>the ARG here was coolno it wasn't. it was shit the moment it wasn't advertised, when we had to sit through multi day long livestreams, run around for weeks in a mc server with nothing to find in it, find a site that we couldn't access for days due to a timegate and then when it was accessible there ended up leading us to another gated piece of trash that we still know nothing about, go weeks without finding anything new at all and, and then have a bunch of retards run circles because nothing is being released/updated, and they refuse to accept that the ARG is timegated.
>If a Timegate was to be placed, it would be at the absolute end.you're retarded. they can be placed anywhere.
>No, this is just speculation and we will never know if tou were correct because we didn't find IT or crack the password.we literally know for a fact it is now since the convo file was released. "internal leaks" "someone could be feeding the public info" they are literally talking about holding back information/restricting progress about the site.
