Trailheads

So, as a player of ARGs that doesn't plan on going anywhere, and will likely continue to play them until the day he dies, I have to ask a few questions. While I understand that some trailhead posts are PMs getting their trailheads out there, still others are actual players that stumbled upon something via Google, Youtube, or whatever. My first question is definitely how does one stumble upon stuff like that? What keywords are good search terms to use for stuff and what sites are good to check for trailheads?

Secondly, other times players receive the trailhead via an email, IM, phone call, etc.. Is there any way for a player to encourage trailhead delivery? Seriously, I'd love getting trailheads, so if there's some way to encourage delivery of them, I'd be interested in hearing about it.

Most trailheads are not FOUND by searching for them.....cause you don't know what to search for until you have a clue.

Play the games. Make sure when there is an opportunity for a PM to have contact information, you share it (if you TRUST the PM).

It finds you when you least expect it. Smile

Thanks Kona and Mikey. I posted in the thread you linked, Mikey, so hopefully I'll start getting weird mails more often. And I already watch my spam closely, so nothing new there. Laughing
