 		[META/Flame]About this game.....
Anyone find that this game still has almost no puzzles to solve? I've been following it from the beginning but it feels like it'll never pick up...sorry I'm just getting super frustrated that they're solving everything for us or making it super easy....

 		Yeah, it did just start, but some (hopefully) major game events are supposed to happen today (I assume) so maybe we shall have ourselves a puzzle or two soonish.

 		You also might want to keep in mind, this is also for PM training, so it might have a hick-up or 2 that others might not. Everyone has to learn somehow.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of puzzles for puzzles sake. I don't know how many times I've wondered "just why is this puzzle here" during ARGs. I would much rather have a few social engineering problems then a ton of subsitution/vigenere/enigma ciphers to solve. I liked the fact that we had to find TEP from the phonecalls and SAIpets from TEP.

The game is less than 2 weeks old (with a holiday weekend in the middle of it). Give it a little time. Even ILB, H3ist and LCP didn't have massive puzzles their first few weeks.

Do you have something particular in mind?

This is the first ARG for me that has a load of pages out there. It might take a while, but I'm sure there will be puzzles which are integrated into the storyline as the one from SAI Pets.
