Feedback on my arg

I am currently working on an arg. It starts with this page:

It seems good, but the first thing that made me almost not want to read all of it was the spelling errors. I guess they could be clues, some ARGs do that, but if this guy worked in a lab for so long, he should be able to spell, punctuate and capitalize correctly. The story seems original, but I'm not sure how you'd pull it off, so that's really enticing. The codes should have a purpose, like, is he hiding secrets with them or what? [I haven't tried to crack them, I'm just giving you first looks] A lot of ARGs sometimes use codes for the sake of codes, you know? It could be that that code has taken over the English language, or it could be binary so it's used more than English because the world is so high-tech or something? Maybe a bit more info on the framing device, it seems a bit shaky. I'd say, at this point, just get someone to proofread for you and work out the rest later. I like it!
Happy PMing! Very Happy

Thank you

Thank you for the feed back. Actually there is a reason why everything is in code (he is trying to hide himself from the organization), but you are right about everything else. I also have my question of how I will pull it off but I am going with a sort of a detective story (trying to discover what happened and why). Anyway thanks again!

I would say I am very impressed with all the puzzle style work put into this, and I think my team could help you take this to a whole new level. None of the smaller issues critiqued would be a problem any longer. Id like you to come with us into The AlterNET.

I sent you a PM
