    Invitation to SIMAKOS beta test!

    We are excited to announce the launch of SIMAKOS, a revolutionary way of making sure that you will always be able to find other players with whom you can accomplish your goals. This site was built by gamers like yourselves, who saw a need for a more efficient manner of finding others to game with.

    When Simakos goes live you will be able to fill out a survey and see a list of people that are most compatible with you. This is a unique algorithm that is being built from the ground up to focus on the needs of gamers.

    You can sign up for the beta on our site for free and we would love to have your feedback! Join us for the launch of Simakos, and never game alone!

    (Mods, if there is a better place for this post, please let us know!)

    Who are we? Perhaps I am a bit paranoid but come sign up to fill in a survey sounds a bit dodgy to me. Also should this count as spam and an advert? How is this related to Primal as a Single Player game?

    Heh, sorry, let us offer some clarification! The "We" is the guy who has been working on getting this thing up and running and me, the girl who is helping get the word out. I can understand the paranoia completely and will be happy to answer any questions you have.

    As far as the Simakos surveys go, the only use to which our information is put is to support your account (Like user name and email address) and then to match you with other individuals who share your preferences for gaming. Some information (like age) can be input to help us match you, but is not required.

    As for relating to Farcry, we want to pair everyone who would like to have a partner in the gaming world, even if we find them in the forum of a single player game. Many of our users enjoy having someone to chat with while they play single player games, so we want to reach out in places like this as well.

    so yeah, it's not paranoia when you're right, this stuff is spam and does not belong, the mods aren't always on top of removing this stuff, but in the future just ignore it and replay to other threads to bury this type of garbage...
