Well... That depends on whether you want to play or not! Razz
If you haven't already, best plan would be to catch up with the story at our wiki: http://www.meigeist.com/ and on these forums.

Regarding your contact details; it doesn't really work like that. They're used to respond to and instigate interaction during the progress of the story. -So don't expect your phone to suddenly start ringing off the hook just because you've given your number! Smile
So, yeh, like WolfHawk said, just jump right in, have a go at working things out, try to understand what's going on, join us in chat (#geist), check in on all the the different MeiGeist websites, send emails..etc. Just join in!

Thanks for your help! This is all totally new for me.
But I have started reading Eva's blog and Keir's page so am getting a background now. Catching up on the story so things are falling into place.
My first ARG -great!

Welcome on board guys. Good place to start is the first page of the wiki.

There's a (almost) full list of puzzles on there too, but be careful if you want to solve them yourself because the puzzles page is also loaded with spoilers (and the wiki has no spoiler code)

PM me any questions if you want, or hop onto the #meigeist IRC channel

 'nother newbie

Hi guys and gals. I'm a complete and utter virgin to ARG's and only came across the whole thing by chance. Have signed up to Geist and spent the last 6 days reading up on all the history. Jeez looks like we're in for an interesting ride. This is sooooooooo addictive. Can't believe I've never even heard of an ARG before now!! Embarassed

Anyway, just wanted to say hello to all the fellow players, and let you know I'll chip with anything I can (not sure how useful that'll be tho Confused ). I know there's no official newbie thread so I thought this would be a good a place as any to post.
