The 19th of May, 2007 - Security Issues

On the 15th of May, we decided to give a special sneak peek of the completed Run Rincewind Run! to the Troll Bridge sponsors as a thankyou for their long running support.  The provision being – that they were only allowed to use the link we gave them for their own use.

It has come to our attention, however, that the link has since been posted on the front page of a prominent Discworld fan site.  While we’re thrilled that people are excited and would like to spread the word... we are also obviously disappointed that the spirit of the sneak peek has been destroyed.

So until the official release of Run Rincewind Run! descends upon us next Tuesday, we’ve decided to password that section of the site.  The sponsors have their own login and password to access the information and film.  We apologise for the security inconvenience and to those wishing to access that part of the site legitimately.  All will be restored on Tuesday.
