"Adresse insuffisante" is French, the other international language of post offices (along w/ English), so I suppose it could have made it to Sweden, but in my experience the swedish post office stamps are all in swedish. (Except maybe the occasional "par avion.") This complicates things when I get packages from there stamped "Vik Ej!" since my postman doesn't know that means Do Not Bend! Very Happy

So I guess I'm on the "went to the wrong country" bandwagon. Hope you didn't write Switzerland!

No, i think it went to the right country. The sticker that says Adresse insuffisante in bold also has the words "Ofullständig adress" underneath in nonbold.

I'll try reprinting/sending it again when i can. Right now my printer is broked.

argh!! Nothing at all?
How about the POLYGON thread. There is an URL, verkligheter.se. It means realities.
Maybe it is the PM, who gave us a too difficult puzzle to get started with, and want to help us?[/url]

Look at this...

There are some urban explorers in Sweden discussing this stuff... Can't make the connection, though.

The connection is that they stumbled upon some stickers and messages left behind by someone while exploring and became curious.

And that someone is trying to hype the game through that forum. That is all.

Also, see the photos that Zeitgeist was asking about in another thread. They have a definite connection to Urban Explo.

I guess it is just the case that ARG:ers and UE:ers cross paths in one way or another. Or maybe they are one and the same.

The One or The Other

The sticker said something like this, roughly translated:

"Entrances, ways down, exits
The city is twice as large as you think
Follow us down to darkness and freedom

s3 spacemail 011
renstiernasg. 28
11631 STHLM"

The Urban Explorers got curious and speculated who was behind this and why.
There was also some clues/letters left behind at some know UE-location that some people found.
But after some speculation they soon realised that it was a ARG.

Nice way the both groups paths cross one and other though. Cool

One of those Urban Explorers here. Found some...contact information, late at night, alone, in a dark place.

Wrote snail mail to that address, no answer still. Disappointed.

I can shed light upon this mystery, since I was a part in creating it...

This was an idea we came up with while spending to much time in dark, small cafées at Söder, which used to be the bohemia part of Stockholm. We discussed games in reality, much like ARGs but in Reality. However, a storyline was never discussed, we more or less liked the idea of a game with missions in reality. The project was named Scene, but I didn't put any more effort into it. It seems like someone in our little group decided to give birth to it! I'll se if I can find out whoever it is, and tell him/her not to post at Unfiction, because this is Stockholm only...at least I think it is...

I have some posters from Scene , should anyone be interested...


I stand corrected. Apparently, this is something entirely different from what me and my friends were into. Please disregard the text above, and start exploring Scene instead. My mistake!

To the responsible for Scene: I am truly sorry for this misunderstanding...
