On the forum for this "Game" a lostgunslinger2 has posted a rather peculiar image: a question mark. I'm no expert at examining a photo though. Is this a clue...or a red herring?

Also, the bad punctuation, spelling, etcetera is bothering me as well. I'll take note of all of them to see if they might be a clue. I doubt it.

Edit: Oh, if it is a clue I noticed he said 'what is AOD' and not 'Who is AOD'. Just a thought.

Edit the Second: I tried counting them all...and ended up with a head ache. By the way PM, we mean no disrespect by pointing out your countless errors, and your arrogant demeanour. Um...maybe not the best way to say that.

Well, I dont know about anyone else, but this is something I noticed and am not too thrilled about.
In the second email I received, the PM has made everyone's email address public... Not such a smooth move. This, and the crusty punctuation hint that maybe he's a bit... Well, shall we say our PM didn't listen very carefully in class.

Thoughts?

EDIT: And doesn't a week seem like a long time? I can't say I'm feeling the pressure just yet.

Well, I've been googling for half the day, and do you know what I got? Nada. Been trying to find if anyone has been blogging about doing ARG's, looking for phrases like "We failed mission 2" and "we all got terminated" and all sorts of stuff in between. Zip, zilch, zero. Haqven't had a chance to check up on any other gaming forums yet though.
Crying or Very sad

(ps. am also not too enamoured about having my e-mail advertised, but i suspect that for most of those are our game emails, no? Maybe we should group e-mail back to see if anyone hasn't heard from the guy since they failed mission 2?)

Also not doing the happy dance at the open email chain letter. Yet I noticed a name I'm not familiar with: dflor71. Big sorry if it's a regular but I checked with no success the nicks here and googled also.

Sorry... What?

Yes, "dflor71" is me... Sheesh.

Now what is this all about? An ARG... about ARGs?!? And I don't think they've lived up to the "AR" part of it yet...

Anyway, beats me on this one.

I signed up for this, but didn't get the email, so I'm going in a huff and ignoring it ... now where's the big baby emoticon?

Sorry for the late response here but i'm 99% sure the game was The Captive Jackpot. The thread for it is here: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=21593

WARNING!! The blog for The Captive Jackpot has been taken over and is now very, very NSFW! The link there doesn't even warrant clicking...just...yeah...trust me and leave it well alone :p

ALSO! The PM is VERY strict about 1 answer only. From one person to represent us all. Two people sending the same answer in = curtains for us. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL WE DESIGNATE A PERSON TO RESPOND!

That one ended ages ago though. Didn't he say they failed their 2nd mission, and that he had conducted the game a couple of weeks before our mission zero?

Yeah, which is why I'm not sure.

It's just the one answer per group only thing which is exactly the same game mechanic and the fact it ended on the second mission. Also, it gives a person as an answer.

I've read the posts and yes, I agree, it has a very similar feel. I am curious about something on that thread though, after the last answer was mailed, no-one posted again. Not even to say "Has anyone heard anything?" I find that really odd...
