Re: Game Hint #2
While talking to one of my mentors today (jerry) i had this crazy idea that makes allot of sense to me....

evergreen - earth (name)
minnetonka - water (lake)
paramount - air (airport at the end of it)
pheonix - fire (located on the upper edge of the Sonoran Desert)

Elemental?.... but what does it all mean.... i was counting on the forums to figure that out before my brain has a system failure and crashes.... (ill reboot and be better by morning) -- this seems like a real big coincidence to me...

Re: Game Hint #2
You know, this thread proves that the GDC is pure evil! Everyone has a different interpretation or crazy idea to solve it, yet it'll make perfect sense once the game is revealed.

Once again, the GDC is pure evil. (Dave, Aidan, and Bill get the "pure evil genius" rating which is slightly worse.)

I like this a lot.

Take your machine out of the shop - air
stop by and get connected - fire
drive by and make a pickup - water
then head to the field - earth

And consider we have a fish for game hint 1...that could have something to do with water.

And also consider what we call things that are on the field: game elements. We could be using 4 game elements are are completely different.

I so hope we have Captain Planet references in this new game...so we all can photoshop Dean to look like Captain Planet.
