[QUESTION] A Few Questions

Hi all, please indulge me of these few questions as I am interested in participating in this game...

1) Is there anything to do right now? Are there any puzzles to be solved? It doesn't look that way... Are we just waiting for something to come from MC/Sente?

2) What's the point in this game when as soon as somebody works out a puzzle they post it here and everybody knows it? Or is this a team game where we all work together?

3) What do these cards have to do with the Cube? Seemingly nothing, except to pay for the reward...? And does anyone believe that there actually will be a reward?

4) How long will this game last do you think?

Thanks very much.

[EDIT: moved to Meta, tagged. yanka.]

Could a mod move this to qns?

answering them:

1) not really any puzzles to be solved as yet, just lots of speculation going on (and I love speculation Smile)

2) It's a team game to some extent, although things are posted, you can still work on solutions yourself. What I tend to do in reference to puzzles is post ideas that people can work on, i mean the notorious 24 digit number is a perfect example - was solved by a new user Spankit, having been worked on for months and months.

3) The cards are a useful, but not necessary, aid in finding the cube. They will provide backstory and clues.

4) No idea, my spec would be it will be over by the end of the year.

Also, from the BBC programme I got the impression that this was some kind of 3D interactive game, but I don't see any sign of that here... Can anyone explain what that was all about? Is that where the game is headed? Is that what they are selling? Are "keys" those GPS/memo pad things that were shown for tracking a real life players position in the online world? I'm so confused by that because it doesn't appear to have any relevance to this place...

The 3d game thing was totally different to this, based in nottingham, and not an ARG in the sense that this forum is about (ARG - alternate reality game)

They didn't explain that too well tbh
