Is the EPOCH emu a hoax?

Is it bollocks a hoax? We have seen video proof of wipeout running. Why is option 3 not are we a bunch of paranoid twats :)

None of us mere mortals could possibly know what is going on without a post from the author.  He had testers working with him, not sure who they are but maybe they could shed light on the project.  A website was also set up so testers could relay any bug findings etc, I used to browse and check on progress from time to time.  It was all there for everyone to see if they so wished.   So it's highly unlikely to be a hoax unless the testers are also in on it, in fact I'd be extremely impressed if it is all a hoax.

Is it still there, if so what's the link?

The thing is, by doubting KC (I don't know him/her/it, but still), you could just be scaring them away from the scene, so best to just sit tight and if it comes out great, if not DONK, but never mind. At the end of the day, none of us could do it so don't moan about someone elses effort lol

Not sure on the bug tracker one, i did have it in my history but can't find it. The 2nd site with the rom listings is here - http://epochfme.webs.com/

NQ is / was a tester

Yeah the other link is a much better one, although when I last saw it the tracker hadn't really been updated, but gave a nice idea of how things were progressing. Here's hoping NQ might be able to shed some light.

Actually the tester webpage doesn't seem to be online anymore.  I guess it's not needed any longer if the release is imminentish.

Either way I'd like to know since we'd been promised an announcement before Xmas.  I can live without an epoch emulator, that's not a problem.  What pisses me off is when people say they'll do something then don't.  Its just fucking bad manners.
