About a week ago I picked up Shadow Puppets. Today, after reading a bit in the first chapter, I headed over to the Acknowledgements section, just to see if there was a time line. Lo and behold, a website! With a clever name, and a time line, exactly what I needed! Upon heading to this website, while finding most links were down, there was talk of a script. An Ender's Game script. My heart leapt with joy, and I pursued the only (visibly) working link to a forum, where here I stand in awe of the discussions of this wonderful literary series.
My journey with Ender began naught but three months ago, after re-reading the Real Life webcomic archives, and finding there the mention of a book, which befuddled the main character upon reading the end. Of course, such a befuddling book must be read, and enjoyed. And enjoy it I did! One book after another, $8 at Borders, usually within the span of two or so weeks, and now, with Shadow Puppets in my hand, I find a website, with talk of a script, which I have been hoping for!
Huzzah to you, dear Mr. Card, and many thanks for the stories that kept me company between classes, riding home on the bus, and sometimes late at night.

welcome!
a lot of the links are down because the site and the board recently crashed and is being being rebuilt slowly bit by bit. there's more information about all that throughout milagre.
stick around, get to know the place. we're going through a bit of a transitional period, obviously, but things will settle down soon enough.
glad to have you join us!

you snooze, you lose
well I have snozzed and lost
I'm pushing through
I'll disregard the cost
I hear the bells
so fascinating and
I'll slug it out
I'm sick of waiting
and I can
hear the bells are
ringing joyful and triumphant

The Makeout Hobo is real, and does indeed travel around the country in his van and make out with ladies... If you meet him, it is customary to greet him with a shot of whiskey and a high five (if you are a dude) or passionate makeouts (if you are a lady).

Geez, sorry if the CA's response time is not within 24 minutes.No one's offered the limeade yet? Are we past limeade?
And I don't recall the CA ever restricting others from offering limeade to new people, or anyone at all. It's just not CA limeade. And it's customary for CA limeade to be offered to launchies... so non-CA limeade wouldn't take the place of it, or anything.
But I believe Vol or Noodle would be the authorities on this, if they would bother posting again.

Well, you've already been met with a sea of well-wishers, but I just thought I'd throw my welcome onto the pile. 
We're in a bit of a mourning period for the website and forum that crashed last month after 5 years, as Young Val explained so nicely, so everything is a bit up in the air right now. It's a lovely place though, I hope you'll stick around and join in the fun.

Well, I'm a college student, woefully unemployed, and the origin of my screen name comes from my boyfriend, who is blueantoid. Um, my birthday was... ten days ago, as of today, and... I like cookies? I'm not very good at telling people about myself.So Ms. Blue, tell us a little about yourself... Your occupation, the origin of your screen name and anything else that you would like to share.
