Still down, see time stamp for this post. Maybe Bukanator has signed back on as the Project Manager for the site  |

For my money, maybe the funniest thing to emerge from the discovery of the creators is Grant Steinfeld, aka, Bukanator.
It turns out that he actually was a Web-guy in San Francisco who was only marginally involved. He really is just an incompetent Web site administrator. And my guess is that he's actually let everyone else on the project down by doing such a terrible job with the Web site.
It's sort of disappointing really. The incompetence of their Web activity really undermined the series they were doing. All they needed was one moderately-talented tech guy, he could have set them up with some proxy servers, he could have told them that somebody is going to Whois the fan site -- don't register it too early, etc. Without those early errors, the mystery would have played out much differently, and probably played out the way the creators imagined. And, with good Web people, they could have a good site up by now.

Wow, so Grant Steinfeld is the LG saga's tragic figure. He really was awful, wasn't it. Wouldn't it be hilarious if he was the one that registered the site too early? Wow, his terribleness would be incalculable then. What's even sicker is... so he was tapped (and paid?) to be the web admin? I sure hope not because he constantly insisted he is far too busy with work to be a good admin from the beginning. That was just extraordinarily weird. If it really was his job then why did he pay absolutely no attention to it? Who knows...
