 		[Regenesis] ARG starting August 29th
I received an email today from the PMs of the Regensis website announcing the beginning of their ARG. Regenesis is a killer Canadian TV show in the vein of CSI and 24, that focuses on biotechnology. I know that they won an award for their last rabbithole and urge anyone and everyone to become involved. The main website is http://www.regenesistv.com. While it is a promotional ARG it is intended to be a parallell story to the show. So canadians (who have the priviledge to actually see the show) and americans alike can partake in this adventure.

BTW I am not a shill for them...I am just a fan of the show who lives in America and caught some episodes while visiting last year and am truly disappointed that I can't watch it in America (I'm totally jealous of canadiens atm). I'm stuck with numb3rs. I just thought you would all like to know about an award winning ARG team starting a new rabbithole.

Here is the email I recieved:

ReGenesis Extended Reality game launches on Global Television!
The ReGenesis Extended Reality pulls viewers into a mystery that weaves in and out of the TV series, blurring the line between fiction and reality. Biotechnology surrounds us, and the 21st Century will not allow us to ignore it. This is not science fiction; it is science fact. At each moment, viewers will stop and think: "This could really be happening!" and it is, online.

Pieces of the puzzle can be anywhere. Starting with emails after each episode, you will soon enter A MAZE OF COMMUNICATIONS across multiple websites, discussion with other viewers, webcam video, classified documents, even telephone voicemail and a login to hack into the internal network of NorBAC.

Global Television brings you the exciting series premiere of ReGenesis this Monday, August 29th as a dangerous, unidentified virus makes its way towards downtown Toronto and NorBAC labs.

You have been sent this email from your registration at www.regenesistv.com

If you would like to experience the ReGenesis Extended Reality game from the beginning as it launches with Global this fall, please click the link below to confirm your registration details.

My email is #########, and I would like to participate in the first season of the ReGenesis Extended Reality game beginning August 29th. (Click to confirm)

If you would not like to receive any further contact from the ReGenesis Extended Reality, please ignore this message. By confirming your email address you have agreed to our Terms & Conditions posted here.

Only you know the whole story. Be a part of it.

 		Regenesis
This is me hoping that season 2 makes its way into the (this is the only way we can watch it)torrent(/cough) pipeline. I *love* this show.

 		It seems that they are going to do a repeat of this ARG to go along with the show which is just now being brought to broadcast TV in Canada. This is a great chance for those who weren't involved last time to try this time.

This was my first ARG/introduction to the ARG. I'm guessing it will also attract others because at the end of every episode, the following message shows:

"This is only part of the story,
Only you know the whole thing.
Visit www.regenesistv.com"

With this playing on a local channel (either global or CTV) I'm guessing we are going to get a LOT more ARGers from Canada.

 		Okay, because the other forums hanging about don't seem to have really got up and going yet, I will post for the enjoyment of all you fine people...Unfortunatly I had a couple small children hanging around while I was watching the show tonight, and it was only as I was sitting back down at the very end of the episode that I caught a flash of something. It was one of those memorium things ("In rememberence of" or "In loving memory"), but I didn't have a chance to catch the name. I was thinking that it might just have been someone who passed away or whatever, but then I think "Hold on...This is an ARG. Nothing is that simple". So, did anyone get the name? And google that bad boy?

By the way, (for those who havn't signed up) sciencesucks.com seems to have been hacked and the registration on norbac.ca is down as well.

 		I wonder if people who played before are welcome to come back, It looks like it will be the same story but I wouldn't ruin it for anyone Smile

 		I'm really excited to get into this one because I missed it the first time around. The only problem is that the registration seems to be down. Every time I try to submit, I get "Email unique test mysql call failed: Query was empty". Hopefully, this is remedied soon because I want in!

 		Sign-Up
The same thing happend to me until I put in my "broadcaster". I live in the US, so the show doesn't play in my area, which is why I was picking "none" as my broadcaster and the response was the same as yours was. Try signing up again but making sure that you have something entered or chosen in each section, even if it's not true.

So am I, but I played the first time. It is possible to play seperate from the shows and still follow along. I downloaded the series every week though so I could keep up Very Happy

 		It started earlier this week. It was really only half of the first episode though, so you haven't missed much. Very Happy
