You might want to elaborate a little bit. I'm not sure exactly what you're asking/looking for.

Also moving this to the Player Tutorial section since I'm not quite sure what you're looking for except for maybe a little knowledge about rabbitholes.

 		My guess is He/she/it was looking for what I'm looking for.
Logic dictates that a beginner is looking for a beginner's rabbithole.

Hence: What hole do I crawl into get me started.... easy... well not to hard.... some hints even I would get without having to check a waltkthrough every 5 minutes.

** what? you don't believe in walkthroughs? Neither do I....**

 		But a rabbithole for what? A puzzle trail? An ARG?

There are tons of puzzle trails over in the Timewasters forum. Pick one that looks interesting and have fun.

If you're looking for an ARG, I don't know exactly what I can tell you. ARGs are meant to be played collectively, so that what is hard for one person might be a piece of cake for someone else. Plus, they are also meant to be played in real time. Even if you happen to find all of the puzzles to be quite easy, you may still have to check a guide constantly to make sure you aren't missing part of the story that is no longer available.

I really don't know of any beginner ARGs that can be solved by anyone at anytime. It kinda goes against the whole point of what makes them unique. But you can definitly brush up on your puzzling skills by going through a puzzle trail or two.

 		Actually, there is one ARG/timewaster that is easy and can be solved at any time. This is Jamie Kane from the BBC. This is a great introduction to ARGs. I would strongly reccommend it to any new players. try it at www.bbc.co.uk/jamiekane .

 		Sorry for pulling your quote out of context and order but I think this is it.

See, I knew there was a piece of info I had missed before. I knew they could be played realtime... never imagined they should be played realtime.

Thanks, will save me from asking some stupid questions in future. Wink
