I think it means street address. And if you email that, then they'll have both addresses.

Yeah, I don't think I'll be doing that just yet. I would hate for the PMs to show up on my doorstep wanting me to do something crazy. That would definitely freak me(not to mention my family) out. Laughing


BTW, has there ever been an ARG where they actually do something like that? The PMs coming to someone's house, I mean. I would imagine that would break some kind of unspoken rule about not freaking your players out, or something, right?

I ask this because if there is going to be swag, I'd love to get it, but I don't know if I'm totally comfortable giving out my address. Wink

I sent them my street address. It just means they can send things via USPS, which is what they're aiming to do. They have a bunch of clues, they send them out, we get cool stuff in the mail, and we share it here to put together the final clue.

It goes back to Cloudmakers and ILoveBees. People get stuff in the mail all the time. I don't know of any PM's that showed up on doorsteps.

The work on this new project continues.

I remain hopeful in spite of the many hurdles we've had to jump. Many have… affectionally… nicknamed it the "chill pill." Perhaps they don't fully grasp how great it would be to eliminate agression in certain individuals.


Key 1 - Done!

OK, sounds good, I'll do it. I just like to be cautious when it comes to personal info, you know? It's just who I am... Wink

 		And I'm getting clue number 5! Heee, this is exciting; this is the first ARG I have played where I will actually get something tangible to keep. Pretty cool... Wink
