the Mystery

The mystery was a strange internet experiment propagated by the Smashing Pumpkins with their final album before breaking up, Machina. The greater part of what most fans refer to as the mystery occured in the Meaning of Symbols Forum.

Admins for the site gave clues and fans worked with those clues to discover user names and passcodes to open locked sites. Each site almost invariably led to another. There was supposed to be a cartoon featuring the Ghost Children, the otherworldly fans of Glass and the Machines of God, the fictional alter-ego band of the Smashing Pumpkins. However, only about 20 minutes of the cartoon was ever released, in its unfinished form, before the project was dropped.

The whole mystery seemed to just fizzle out with the band, especially once Billy Corgan became preoccupied with Zwan, another musical project. It is a very difficult and convuluted thing to explain. The mystery was something that needs to be experienced to be understood.

jp

Shortened form of "Japanese". Used in the FFXI gaming environment to refer to Japanese players.

Preferred to other shortened forms like "Jap", which is considered disrepectful.
JP only, ((sorry, I don't understand English)).

My JP friend gave me these balance rings, I'm so lucky to be a linkshell with JP players.

It's hard to play with JP players because of translation issues, but they really rock in combat.
