Whatever happened to the LivingLegend NPC?

I remember a few months back a playing named LivingLegend died in a coma. They were going to memorialize him in game by naming one of the seed NPCs after him, but I've never come across the name. I was just wondering whatever happened to that idea.

    I've heard he didn't actually die, so maybe that is what happened...

    Tribute NPC was based on condition he didn't fake his death. Which he did. And was found out within 2 days.

    There are easier ways to retire from MPQ.

    Wait...what?

    All of that was fake? The out pouring of condolences for him, including from devs (p2), and updates from family...the X-men family re-named themselves for a memorial...

    Somebody faked their death to get into a mobile match 3 game?

    I...need to digest this...

    Wow that's despicable. I assumed it was legit.

    What's the basis of y'all saying he faked it?

    This can't be real, right?
    I mean.....this would be horrible enough for someone who was just a lurker on the forum or something, but he was a known and respected poster, wasn't he? If the fakery is true that's some major league ****.

    It was faked.
    Combination of FB, searching local news outlet and i believe the account being used again later.


    End thread because no-one wants to give any further time to this.

    Yeah, I thought this was just another dropped idea from the To Do list.

    I would like to see some outside proof either way before I change my assumption that LL passed on.

    He faked his death. Yes we have proof. No I won't show it to you. It's better left alone. It's a complicated issue. Locking this thread.
