Choru

From MYSTlore

In early summer of 2002, Choru was the first test involving participants that weren't employees of Cyan. It began in March of 2002 with the five explorers (Rico, Blastercalm, Dr. Greer, IMForeman, and Rivenchan) who are listed as Premier Explorers in the Uru credits. It was a small group, but distributed across multiple continents. Throughout 2002 and 2003, additional testers were added. However, Choru remained relatively small. At the time of Uru's launch, there were only eighty-three participants on the Authorized Explorer forums. In the context of Uru's storyline, the Choru testers were referred to as Authorized Explorers.

The term Choru, alongside Ubiru, was coined by 75th Trombone in response to the then-impending Ubiru launch.

As of December 15, 2006, Choru's former website [1] still states:

Choru we'll miss you.

As of Janurary 17th, 2007, lonelyto25 has a detailed writeup of Choru's history which can be accesed on the Uru Obsession forum [2]
