We are sorry about the application mix-up This is the operator of LetsBeFriends speaking. The information on the Google+ page was outdated. The application had changed and I had neglected to change it on Google+. As a result everyone here filled out the wrong application. The error has been fixed though so anyone after this should be fine. However I ask the people who filled out an application before to fill out a new one. If you were affected, you have received an email pointing it out.

Launch Date Hey, does anyone know if the ARG hasn't started yet or something? There's only the intro on the Google+ page, but nothing on the Youtube site. The ARG sounds pretty cool by the intro. If anyone knows when the official launch date is, or if I'm too late on this one, could you post it? Thanks.

Well the above breach of the t&c didn't help and from what I found on reddit this is not so much an ARG but a puzzle trail. I think the pm either closed ranks or abandoned it as I got an initial email but nothing since then.

My email said they were starting as soon as they have enough players. Maybe they're still just waiting for enuogh?

We have not uploaded any videos yet because I(the one who does the videos on in the group) have ran distorted the audio to make my personal voice unrecognizable. I lost the settings used an I now have to find the settings again. As for the Twitter account our answer is a bit more complicated. We accidentally leaked most of the operator's full name onto the Twitter account. After the operator suffered amnesia from a unrelated accident, we have decide it would be best to not post anything on Twitter until we announce the website, which we are working full time on right now.

I can't answer that question. But the answer should be clear within the next few days.

We are sorry about the lack of anything happening. This was due to an incident that was my(the Operator's) fault, the power cord for this computer was damaged in a power surge a few months back but continued to work until recently if prompted. I had to wait to get a new one. Fortunately we had backups of everything needed for administration and were able to keep registration open. How ever many things were delayed such as the website, the new registration system, the Youtube channel, and setting up the challenges. I am deeply sorry about this, it was completely due to my negligence, as I had foreseen the cable going out but did not replace it until after it went out. Therefore I have decided it would a good idea to regularly back-up the data needed.

Yeah, this one is really giving off a bad vibe to me. Maybe it's because I've been reading a lot of r/nosleep recently, but this is the first ARG I've seen where something feels... "off" about it. Like, I'm not getting the whole "Oh, it's just a game" vibe from it that most ARGs give me, so I'm not signing up because I'm legitimately sort of worried about what they'd do with the info.

There's something which doesn't really sit right about this either. This might just be me being paranoid, but it feels like some sort of information harvesting attempt at present.
