[edit] Please revalute
I feared that something like this would happen.
I would like to make it perfectly clear that this is a 100% serious project and that the team (changed from being called company to team, as it's a more correct term.) is infact real. This is not a hoax of anykind.
It might seem like it at a first glance, I agree with that. But if you look again at Lobstergotchi and Lobsters & Horses Incorporated now, you will see quite clearly that it's not.
I've updated Lobstergotchi with new and more solid information and even provided two external links. The reason for not including those two links in the first place is because that the site is heavily under construction. But seeing as this is vital for proving that this infact is not a hoax, I had to provide them.
I've also updated Lobsters & Horses Incorporated with more solid information. I'll also like to clearly state that we have yet to buy a domain for the team, so I hope you will trust the information and links I have provided sofar as enough proof that this indeed is not a hoax.
Please notice the Future game tag added at Lobstergotchi ("This article or section contains information about a computer or video game(s) in production."). I think this clearly makes the article not infringing any policys and therefore shall not be deleted. --Yadonashi 02:08, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
- I don't aggree with Soltak that it is a hoak or that it is an awful idea, just that at this time the game does not exist and so it is unknown whether the game will be a success or a failure. Maybe you could move the content of the articles to your user page until the game is completed and more well known. --Tim Pope 17:03, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

I'm convinced that this isn't a hoax, however, I won't be changing my vote to delete. There are a number of criteria for deletion, manufactured information being only one of them. This game is not well established, is being made by a company (or team) that it not well established and falls squarely under the heading of "non-notable." This article may well have merit in the future, however, it should not be written until such a time as the game and/or company has been well established and a fair number of players are in existence -Soltak 16:43, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

This should be postponed until the game has been produced. You often see free-time based programming projects getting delayed and often canceled due to other intrerests, normally ones that involve money. --83.73.64.63 16:11, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
