Anyone want to ‘play’ ourcolony.net with me?
This is one of those strange marketing game type hype website things – believed by many to be linked to the new Microsoft Xbox. Anyway, once you get in, you need to assemble a group of six (five others) to play, and none of my friends are, um, dorky enough to play with me.
Want to join my colony, or do you have one I can join?
So how does this work?
I’m I gonna get screwed like in “Diplomacy”?
I have no idea, they just say I need to assemble a team before i can go any further. Sent you an email.
Sure, why not?
I’ll play.
I think that is enough people - my friend from ‘real life’ is playing too. I sent you both an email, see where it goes from here!
Eh, what the hell, why not? sadpunk gmail com
::sniff:: Fine, fine. Don’t mind me. I’ll just be over here wondering what I’m missing out on…
Who knows, we may need more later, I have no idea where this thing is going.
Okay, I’m on the registration page, and it keeps telling me “You need to go back and type the correct number” I’ve tried using the code number on the page, and the code number from your email, and neither works. Anyone have any ideas?
Did you input “play” first? It then takes you to the page where you need to type in the number.
Yes, I’m at the page where you enter your “tag”, password, etc., and then has a 6-digit number on the bottom with a box that says "you know the drill. enter the code "
Sorry, no idea then.
The code is 8 digits long.
Well, I’m getting a bit curious myself. I’ve set up a colony, SDMBColony, team code 54416165. Let’s see where this goes. 
Might be an issue of browser. I use Firefox for (almost) everything, but when I could get in (and couldn’t get in, and couldn’t get in…), I started a session of IE. Worked well enough, except now we still need three more players to start this thing.
Anyone sign on recently? There is a riddle to solve.
Can anyone figure it out? Google search is useless.
Looks like one of you got it… sorry about the slow response, I went away for the weekend. I’m much better at this kind of thing when I am at work
So who solved it and how? Do we just have to wait for the next challange, or is it this thing at the bottom:
Oh, I want to play! Pick me! Pick me! Unless it’s too late to join. That would be sad. 
Seriously, can somebody send me a code or something so I could possibly set up a colony?
Nevermind, I just figured out the ‘play’ in Flippy’s post. I figured it out.
