Would LOVE to know why this got trashed. Angry mapmaker? Angry dev? The rumors I heard were that the mapmakers put the secret in and it wasn't found for a LONG time, then once found and popularized within the next patch it was trashed, because a developer found out and was angry and demanded it (??) which sounded dumb compared to walling it off, or alternately that all the mapmakers were fired for some reason, or at least the one who made the secret, hence the smeared up board portrayed. OTOH I was afraid the same would happen to the little secret in Faultline, too.

I actually remembered reading a blog post by the guy who crafted Grandville (forget his name) saying that he put it in there because the working hours and deadlines under Cryptic were pretty crazy. Have you noticed that The Hellforge looks like the old Cryptic logo, and The Hellforge is owned by the maniacal and back-breaking Cage Consortium? The connections make themselves.

Here's my friend, herding the Freakshow in Creys:
Like really, really herding them:
How many Freakshow you ask? All of them, I think:
Take note, by the way, that's my perma-Elude MA/SR scrapper, with fortitude not going anywhere near that dogpile. 120 Freakshow all attacking me at the same time would have vaporized me right through Elude.
That's not a guess.
