Hahahaha. You know, it's funny; I'm also this guy.

And thanks. I guess you're right. I should be doing homework right now at 5:46am instead of worrying about this anyway.

SE is relentless, and ultimately they'll destroy themselves.

As the old moral goes, "Greed will imprison us all." ... okay, I got that from Rush Hour but it's a good lesson.

In other words, you think that they'll try and find someone to go after? Sorry, I'm unfamiliar with SE history and bad at deciphering stuff.

Hey, I just posted a final update / apology to reddit which you may direct Square Enix to if the CC does contact them. Any thoughts or changes I should make?

(Sorry, it would be a bit unnecessary effort to convert the Markdown to BBCode, so I'll leave it as is.)

##Final Edit:

I've removed my mirrors of the files. I am not, in fact, the original leak; I'm merely a publicist (not unlike [MTV](http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2011/01/18/chrono-trigger-fanmade-sequel-keeps-franchise-alive/) and [Joystiq](http://www.joystiq.com/2011/01/18/fan-made-chrono-trigger-sequel-finds-release/)).

[This Megaupload link] was anonymously sent to me last week; I can't say where it originated from, but it must have been floating around for a bit.

I am not associated with the project. I have nothing to do with either *Crimson Echoes* or *Flames of Eternity*.

Furthermore, the original developer team and the Chrono Compendium are not associated with this leak with which I took it upon myself to go sensationalist about.

My goal was to get the word out, because I think a project this awesome deserves some attention. Now that I've done that, the rest of you can find the game yourself. I hereby wash my hands of the matter.

**P.S.** Square Enix, Chrono Compendium, Kajar Labs: I hope this post doesn't cause any trouble for any of you.

Despite the positive response from fans / news outlets and the renewed interest in the franchise, it wasn't my place to open this old wound. If any of you want to contact me for any reason, just shoot me a quick private message (the account creation process is very short).

I honestly didn't think this would get nearly as big as it did, or even go anywhere beyond reddit. I sincerely hope that the existence of this game doesn't cause any damages, or even that it may help boost sales of the DS version of the game I linked to below.

Again, I know acted recklessly, I didn't take the consequences into account beforehand, and I'm sorry.

By the way, if a canon addition to the *Chrono* series is ever released, I for one will be among the first in line to purchase it, as will I'm sure all those 270 redditors who upvoted this post (not to mention the many non-redditors who were linked to this post).

And maybe here isn't the best place to suggest that Square Enix offer employment to Kajar Labs (or simply claim ownership, polish *Crimson Echoes* up a bit, and rerelease it on the DS), but who says we can't have a happy ending for everyone here?

basically, whoever that user was on Reddit is going to get the CC in dire trouble. Why they might shut down this place. But, I don't see a reason because Capcom for example approves of fan works whereas SE has to be greedy. What's  hilarious is how they're leading themselves to their downfall with the recent expectations and sales of FFXIII and FFXIV.

That would be me... Maybe SE will be cool about it since I told people to buy their product...? :/

Do you really think the CC is in danger at all? It's not like this site was related to me finding that file and making sure everyone got a hold of it. Ah, fuck Maine, you know that feeling you get in your stomach when you realise you may inadvertently set in motion some negative things?

It says there it is supported by the Compendium... is it true?

No, that was my bad. I didn't actually say that, but implied it; someone else had mentioned that CEMemorial's Youtube channel linked to my reddit post, and I responded that I'd contacted the Chrono Compendium (true: messaged its reddit account) and that I had some legitimate support (mistakenly believing that CEMemorial was connected to CC, when in reality CEMemorial was my only "official" support).

Anyway, I find it slightly amusing that CC won't even report on this, when it seems every other gaming site and forum is eating it up .
