SWEET.

Man, I've always said I'd love to create a Lemony Snicket ARG. This might just be a web story thinger, but how fun!

It's a self-contained game, like you'd see on any other site about a game or movie, but there is some (minor) reality blurrage. Methinks we should make up a name for these kinds of games as well. It's not bad, kinda fun actually, but hardly a full-fledged ARG.

Factoid: Lemony Snickett is a character himself. He was created and played by an anonymous author.

The anonymous author in question is one Daniel Handler (I believe)

Anyway, I got the same email, and now I shall investigate!

Whatever it is, it looks like it'll be fun. I've already done the two puzzles that are available right now. Looks like we won't have another until the 31st

I can't use the screensaver on my Linux box for obvious reasons, if that's important :/

EDIT: Does anyone have the wav of the audio clip? The RealPlayer plugin for Firefox hates me >_<

Even though I installed the Real plugin for Firefox and re-started the application (and then my cpu), it still won't work.

A pox upon Real and all its descendants.

I saw Daniel Handler do a Lemony reading about 4 years ago. He's so totally awesome. He is my Sekrit Boyfriend.
