 		(Spec) 5 Gum
I got a weird feeling about something. I was looking at the 5 senses on wikipedia and I realize something fishy. Idk though. It's just a guess, But what if Wrigley wants to evolve? Like The Icefly thing seems cooler. But about the 5 gum, I'm just guessing by the way. What if they make Glow in the dark Gum? Weird right? The gum already has some of those senses. It would be kool if it glows in the dark. If they reward us, If it is true. I hope everyone gets free gum, lol.

An ARG of this caliber certainly seems appropriate for a gum release that substantial. Interesting thought! Though glow-in-the-dark gum would likely be pretty toxic, and only last for a few seconds to a minute or so until all of the luminous substance has been chewed away...well, anywho.

In any case, they're promising to take our senses on a pretty wild ride. So far their comparisons haven't been entirely accurate (Rain definitely does not feel like lying on a giant subwoofer covered by ball bearings), but I'm willing to bet they'll have some pretty neat ground tests for us. /fingerscrossed

 		Very true. I hope it's worth it. 42 Ent, Just won't let it be for 5 gum. That would be too easy to figure out. These guys aren't that way. It may be related or entirely different? It's gotta be big, Well I hope it is. It's pretty exciting that's for sure. 4 more days will lead to more clues. 5 Gum and the Icefly are the big sources to this ARG, With everything that might lead us in between. Whatever it is. I hope we are rewarded in someway. Even a discovery of something amazing will do. Very Happy

While I'm still secretly hoping that this is a cross promotion, I recently went through their history of past ARGs. It actually looks like they are exactly "that way." For example, ilovebees had trailheads after a Halo 2 trailer. Flynn Lives also had a related trailhead where movie-related websites reported receiving Flynn's Arcade tokens and a flash drive that led to flynnlives.com. Unless 42e makes this a serious break out project, I don't think the chances of a cross promotion look very good...

 		I am totally enjoying this. Even if its not a cross promotion. Most innovative and interesting "commercial" for gum.

Yes, I'm always surprised when people are disappointed that these are marketing promotions. It is important to think about the funding for these, as they are not cheap to put on. Very rarely are these a pure art form funded by a grant and nobody is selling tickets. They are much more likely to be part of a marketing campaign meant to attract attention. If it is a fun promotion it shouldn't matter if it is for a new game, movie, or gum. When you compare it to print ads and commercials, this is far more entertaining. I know 5 gum will be my gum of choice from now on because I like to support those companies that entertain me in this space, and I'm really enjoying this one.

 		By this time before, we had known that there was going to be a drop, or at least something happening in real life. Since our new countdown and profiles show nothing of the sort, should we assume that the only revelations will be online?

I think we can assume it'll be online until we're given notice otherwise. All we can do at the moment is watch the timer and see if anything on any of our sites change.

On the subject though, does anyone know of anything big happening IRL about the time the countdown ends? I couldn't find anything of note.
