Yeah, maybe they realized that was in pretty poor taste. I almost feel bad for whatever this thing ends up advertising, if anything.

ARG within the ARG

As I was saying earlier, I think the supposed meta people have been talking about may in fact be IG, at least part of it, especially after reading this, which I just noticed was added to the wiki.


That is a really good point although "an ARG within an ARG" is almost too postmodern for me to contemplate on a Monday. Very Happy

However, if we are increasingly recognizing that this is an ARG where PMs have put themselves and many real things IG, I guess we cannot really expect as a player to be immune from the same immersion? If you aggressively try to exploit the basic mechanisms of the game like servers, logs, personal info, you might also have to accept the same. Laughing

You either play ball or sit on the sidelines, I guess? Be a hero if you want the celebrity. Let's just not break any laws. Shocked


This has been done in every ARG or viral game ever. Things posted on this forum are not supposed to be in game. That's the point of the forums. I dunno how long you've been here. :\

And for the record I think this game is stupid and so are the PMs. Not that anyone cares, I just wanted it to be known.


Well based on my post count and the fact that I said I was new here and have never participated in an ARG I think it is a fair assessment that I haven't been hear long. In any case that's why I asked if what I suggested was plausible. I guess I didn't realize the ARG within and ARG thing and the blurring of IG and OOG was so common, but that's why I asked.

AGREE TO DISAGREE?

Have to agree with the "all's fair in love and war" philosophy.

You "veterans" sure carry around a lot of entitlement assuming that just because someone creates an interactive online game it has to adhere to your community's definitions of an ARG. I mean, how presumptuous is that.

Does unfiction own all games and set their rules in eternity? Very Happy Of course not. Rules and conventions have evolved as the medium innovates and finds new potentials.

If you don't like this experience that is fine. Go leave, just spare us the whining. If you want to play nice, play nice. If you want to be antagonistic IG go ahead, just don't cry so much.

Can we get back to some clue analysis. PLEASE!

Well, the fact I reported them to Facebook admins might have something to do with it...

Hey, they wanted this to be real; they asked for it.

Very Happy Oh hey someone with the same philosophy.

And as for reporting to the facebook admins, they wouldn't give a damn since that infomation is posted publically by your profile and is searchable.

It's like crying to google because of something you uploaded and your mommie found.

Razz No fun. I found this out 2 days ago but wasn't a member on here, felt like posting it since a quick search revealed I only mentioned it.

Some of those from the video feed sound like they might have distorted voices. Anyone try analyzing?
