Revision as of 19:47, 26 June 2020
Hello all! I first experienced The Gamers on Youtube at 240p in the mid-2000s. Now, I'm super into Hands of Fate and Countermay.
I cleaned up the R9E Wikia/Fandom.com wiki (the one created to add a mythic history to Romance of the Nine Empires in 2013) with lots of sources and stuff in 2019 and was pointed here from the ZOE Discord (I'm random-allium-table there) by User:Moritz.schubert.pb. My wiki passion is in citations and internal hyperlinks. Hope to talk to you soon!

Bread Crumbs: Deep Dive on Elbeth
There is no mention of Elbeth in official ZOE releases as far as I know, so I went looking for where she came from. If she's a fan creation whole cloth, there's reason to delete her page. However, there is another mention of Elbeth I could find on the internet: a Fantasy AGE homebrew item credited to Ajay Pollarine. The R9E Wikia page on Elbeth was created by shadesofkin (likely also Ajay) and Utherseth73 (likely this ZOE fan). Also, the Wikia article content was mostly added in June 2013, before any public HoF screenings. Were they jumping in on the online promotional campaign (which started in Jan. 2013) as fans or were they brought in as part of the promotional team officially?
This got me going...
More Digging
Doing some digging I should have done a long time ago, it looks like most of the original Wikia was created in June 2013 by a small number of accounts:
- https://r9e.fandom.com/wiki/User:Roborangutang (created the wikia)
- https://r9e.fandom.com/wiki/User:Utherseth73
- https://r9e.fandom.com/wiki/User:Otteriffic
activity didn't pick up again until Oct. 2013, after HoF was already released (I've been using ZOE's old Kickstarter campaign as a reference). This is reason to believe that content posted to the Wikia in June 2013 might come from a promotional team, rather than fans of the movie.
Then I found this bombshell conversation. Roborangutang was in familiar contact with AEG, and Utherseth73 had access to an early copy of the R9E card game manual!
