"Is it real or is it a game?" (WIBS and LCP)

http://jscms.jrn.columbia.edu/cns/2006-04-04/marshall-altreality

After the author asked for help here, a number of people responded (including myself) answering questions and the such. Noticably are the quotes from Chris "Lovek" Love, and Jackie "Scarpegrosse" Kerr, as well as pictures from Dee "Addlepated" Cook, and quotes from Dave Szulborski.

I personally think this is a good article. It's almost more of an interview with background info though Smile

I, on the other hand, am working on an ARG that *becomes* an avian flu epidemic. Then we'll see who starts talking about ARGs! (I'm looking at you, Wolf Blitzer!)

Well I'm working on a post-apocalypse ARG about the survivors of an ARG that *becomes* an avian flu epidemic. Wink

Oh, and an ARG about the rebuilding of the society that devlopes out of the post-apocalypse ARG about the survivors of an ARG that *becomes* an avian flu epidemic - before someone steals that idea too!

Post-apocalyptic ARGs are so yesterday's news.

Hurray! Finally an ARG that realizes that there is more to the state of New York than just New York City. Very Happy
