Myst Online: Uru Live as a MMARG

This section's header says to "Discuss our emerging genre as a whole: Ideas, Concerns, Questions, etc.". I wanted to point you to a discussion thread on another forum, where a player has made a connection between Myst Online: Uru Live and the ARG genre. His post references the Wikipedia definition of ARGs, and he uses it to describe the gameplay in MO:UL as it stands today as well as what it is expected to become. On page two of that thread, another player mentions Jane McG by name and a presentation she gave. I thought our community would like to see this glimpse of how her work is received outside of unfiction. Enjoy!

Nifty to see this discussion make its merry way over here. At least one person is veheminatly opposed to the idea of saying ARG anywhere near Uru, but the seeds of ARG-ness are already planted, in the Gas Station Stan event from the first attempt at Uru Live. I predict that as things get bigger, there will be more things that take place on 'the surface', that impace what happens in D'ni.
