Doritos and Guests

I was just wondering if anyone had any theories as to why the Triangle Mystery (Doritos Viral Campaign) is attracting so many Guest posters. It seems to have more than any other topic I have seen.

The mystery is being advertised on Dorito bags, isn't it? If so, then the game's likely to get all sorts of players from every which corner of the globe, many of which find Unfiction through a Google search and want to join in, but don't want to create an account.

On top of which a number of users were logging in as guests to yank our (and particularly Necromancer518's) chains. Flagrant trolling. Of course I can't prove that, but ....

We're trying to raise awareness about all the many suffering ARG'ers whose lives have become absorbed in trying to save fictional people. It's a serious illness. Wink

As the official unFiction Dietitian, I have to remind folks that Doritos are non-nutritional (very little vitamins/minerals) sources of high fat calories.

Enjoy! Wink

I expect that many of the people learning of the Doritos game are rather baked themselves, and thus far less capable of the rational act of joining uF before posting.
