CollaboZOT

I found this on the maczot page
http://www.maczot.com/

It is going to startup in 3h 12min and 33sec
It is now 5/21/06 11:55pm eastern.

sign up now if you want to play.

They mentioned everyone that plays is going to get some sort of prize.

This looks like it can be some fun.

CollaboZOT has not quite begun.

To prepare for this Collaborative Mac Community effort, you can do the
following:

1. Make a list of blogs and news sites you frequent.
2. Notify them in a very short note that something is happening at
MacZOT.com
3. Get ready to communicate with your friends who use a Mac this week
because the more people we get involved, the more value the bundle will have.

This address is for CAN-SPAM COMPLIANCE ONLY


7559 Hansom Dr., Oakland, CA 94605, USA

3am update

Get the MyzteryMegaZOT bundle of great Mac Applications

We're trying something different this time at MacZOT

We're going to run this CollaboZOT promotion for a week. Along with the ability for everybody to purchase the MyzteryZOT bundle, we'll be playing games where people can win prizes.



Rules:

1. Follow the clues we announce

2. If you have a complaint, put it on your own blog

3. All serials to the bundle will be delivered AFTER this week

4. Team play for the CollaboZOT requires a team of 1 - 5 players

5. Each day, we'll reveal a piece of the MyzteryZOT bundle if we get at least 100 people to finish the CollaboZOT scavenger hunt

6. Have fun and don't take this too seriously - our main goal is to provide value to the Mac community.



they also listed a rss feed
http://maczot.com/discuss/?feed=rss2

this was along with some mystery package ?

I might be missing something here, but it just seems like a campaign to sell discount Mac software. The clues seem to be hints for what the mystery software is.

Suggest this be renamed to something other than [trailhead], and possibly moved to timewasters since TINAARG.

Absolutely reeks of cheap advertising, this one. I know that's in essence what ARG's are intended for, but... yeah, TINAARG.

CollaboZOT Clue:

AppZapper launched 1.5 today - announcing ZapGenie&rade;

It was posted on Digg.com

Once the Digg count rises above 55, we'll announce an embedded clue.

Cheers, have fun playing.

Until the team page gets finished, just play on your own. Team play will be for races and prizes and there will be plenty.

ZOT!

Clarification:

CollaboZOT is the scavenger hunts and the team play.

MysteryMegaZOT is the massive software bundle.

You can buy the bundle without playing. You can play without buying.

There's something for everybody, and again, just have fun with it.

ALL SERIALS WILL BE DELIVERED AFTER THE WEEK OF FUN. (i.e. if you buy now, you'll wait until it's over - else it would ruin the myztery)

ZOT!




FIRST CLUE

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Go to flkr and look for maczot widget

At the end of the show is where its located.[/quote]

Update!

Slight delay on the Team Registration page. We've been working hard to make sure we have some extra-good prizes for those participating in the scavenger hunts — CollaboZOT.

Stay tuned here. We will have those pages up soon.

Cheers,

ZOT!
