    Man

    What happened to like all the free Lovecraft books? I thought they were all still in the public domain?

    I always thought The Shadow Over Innsmouth was better than At the Mountains of Madness.
    Same here. But I've always been more creeped out by things that are nearly-but-not-quite-human rather than totally-crazy-monsters, so that one's right up my alley.

    Whatever happened to good ol' steorn

    I remember when they were supposed to demonstrate it and then backed out at the last minute, and when they were going to put it on display but then backed out again.

    How exactly did they manage to steal all the investor money? Did the corporation dissolve and the CEO disappear off to the cayman islands or something? I never heard what the conclusion to that debacle was.

    Apparently the company was never even related to any kind of engineering, mechanical or otherwise. They were a dot-com marketing company, and the entire hoax and such was their way of demonstrating the kind of publicity they could generate in newspapers and over the internet, without actually having any 'product' to work with.

    Wow

    that's much, much cooler than some dudes ripping off investors like these things usually are

    also a pretty effective demonstration, I would assume

    kudos to those guys

    also laughin at the image of all the despondent faces of idiot nerds who had their dreams crushed by the callous reality of marketing. Remember when that shit first came out how all the toolbag morons started coming out of the woodwork on PA?

    In D&D the steorn thread was moving as fast as a Seattle thread

    As cool as the Mythos is, yeah, it would suck if it were real.

    Although most of us would likely be blisfully unaware of it's presence.

    Nah. He didn't mention rape and premature ejaculation.

    Doesn't mean they aren't a part of the mythos
