[TRAILHEAD] Loki Will Rule
Loki Takes the World - Trailhead for the Avengers Movie?

A couple of days ago, I stumbled across Loki's twitter (https://twitter.com/#!/godofbadassery) and was linked to this site: http://lokitakestheworld.com/

I subscribed, and just got an email describing it all as an "international cyber scavenger hunt", and talking about games and points. It says the game is scheduled to begin on April 23rd, and that open registration will begin on February 6th (because I subscribed, I'm able to register early). Anyone else got any information on this?

If you want. The best way to think of it, if you're unsure whether or not to post it, use the spoiler tags.

Also, that Wikkibird was from the source code, yeah? I had a quick lookaround, and there's a wikkibird twitter where she's talking about it - https://twitter.com/#!/wikkibird

Honestly though, after reading that email, I thinks it's fan based. I may release my address to an unknown, but not my real name.

I registered, why the hell not, right? xD

if they ask, I'll probably supply. If it is fan-based and they send spammail, I know of a way to dissuade them from doing such.

But as of right now, it looks pretty official to me, but I dunno.

From looking at the designer's "Designs by Wikki" website, I'm 99.9% sure this is not official...
