Have to say, such a sucky finale to an ARG...

I want to know a few things. One being what is Black Helix going to be used for, or on whom it may be used on?

And Where is that labratory/building located?

My understanding is that the "Black Helix" is a mind-control serum. Therefore, it could be used to control people to do whatever you would want them to do. Also, in terms of interrogating a subject, it would be better than a truth serum.

I assume that the Pharmucom lab was based in Northern Ireland, considering as that's where the ARG was created.

To be honest, although it was a time-killer for better things to come, the whole ARG reeks of a "student project" - especially, the "giggly-ness" of the ZT helpers in the live feed.

Nice find!

My speculation about the other 3 achievements, something like:
achicon9 = Successfully Infiltrated Armucom
achicon12 = Retrieved Deaddrop (geocache event)
achicon13 = Submitted Project Application (Pharmucom)

Has anyone tried poking the in-game sites, emails? If there's no activity then I guess that's it.

I'm still letting the finale vid sink in. So Jess is with the Black Helix group all along, yet they're pointing a gun at her?

The wrap-up is supposed to be the 'trans-media' story they've promised to write after the conclusion of the ARG.

I'm thinking they might create groups of characters in their story organized by in-game Achievements accomplished and identified by the aliases of the registered players.

Perhaps they'll also harvest supporting details and even some subplots from our discussions here on the unforum!

Kind of agree Bryan..

i wontder on achicon12 if the placement of the icon on the globe has any significance.

If we are meant to get them in order it would appear we are meant to get the armystar one after the live interrogation but before regaining control of ZT.

i was disappointed that though we were given a mobile number to help the live final we werent really given any opportunity to do anything.

This was my first ARG and was generally a great introduction i think!
