(p.s. did someone ask about arg-swag t-shirts?
I asked James around the time the chat started. He said we'd find out during the chat. A little while later, all was lost. By "all", I mean the connection. And by "lost", I mean not working.

Lots of technical issues.
According to Jamesi, there will be a mp3 posted soon, and there was also a video made during the chat.
The PM team will also set up a means for those unable to participate to ask followup questions.

Whoops! Forgot to ask about the T-Shirts, but I'll ask at the cocktail party tonight.
Good chat, lots (too many!) of technical glitches, including ALL OF TALKSHOE going down. The internet in this hotel sucks balls.
That being said, here is a link to the unedited version of the discussion. I mention 'unedited' because the volume may be low in some places, due to where the microphone (on the computer) was located.

I thought that hotels were supposed to have good, complimentary WiFi. I've been proven wrong.
But nonetheless, in two hours, I'll be in a screening of "The Dark Knight".

T-shirts Just received an email a little bit ago. It looks like the follow-up discussion is next week - the one for the free t-shirts. 45-60 minutes.

Here is what was in the email, but I'm cutting out the contact info as you needed to indicate to them when you filled out the original form that you wished to give further feedback and this is invite-only.

Hi—
My name is XXXXX and I'm an independent market researcher. You recently completed a survey about an alternate reality game in which you agreed to participate in a follow-up discussion. I'd like to invite you to a conference call to discuss the game and your feelings about it. The discussion will last 45-60 minutes, and as a thank-you, you'll receive a Holomove t-shirt.
The call will take place on Monday, July 21, from 3-4pm Pacific Daylight Time (USA).
Please reply to this message if you can join me. I hope to speak with you soon!

Well they didn't even bother to contact me, even after all they put me through (or attempted to put me through, at least).

I finally got a chance to sit down and listen to the PM chat, thanks for posting the audio. It sounded like a great chat, sorry I missed it, but was unable to dial in. Can't wait to see the video, so I can put faces to the voices.

Ditto. I'm sure I was one of the first 50(I think that was the cut off), so I'm wondering why I haven't gotten one either. I was dedicated to the game, I think it's only fair to wonder why I didn't.

Ok, I am 100% sure that I didn't get that email either. Even after the game is over, it still disappoints!

OK, just received a followup email:

Hi again—
I realize the time today may not be ideal for everyone and I'm happy to schedule additional times, because I'm very interested in speaking with you. Please let me know if there's a better time this week to speak.
Thanks!
I know that today was not good for me, especially coming right near the end of the work day. If others are in the same boat, lets see if we can suggest a better day/time for everyone. That is, if anyone else actually received the email. Anyone?

Mr. Toasty, I think you may be the only member here to get an invite to that chat. I'm curious as to who the others are. I didn't think there were many people outside of unFiction playing.
