How do I find an ARG?

Hello, all you awesome people! Very Happy

Now, truthfully I'm a HUGE noob at ARGs, and I was wondering....
How do you guys find them, and do you have any tips on how it's done?

A bit simple, but I have a feeling that finding a trailhead would be part of the fun. Smile

I'm not sure that there is a definitive way to find them. You could allow them to find you by posting contact details in this thread, but there's no guarantee that you'll get any trailhead action from it. If PMs want a truly intriguing beginning then sending e-mails to everyone on that list probably isn't going to be it.

I think it's really a case of keeping your ARG antennae peeled as you wonder around the world - and actually reading your spam.

Sorry not to be more help. Smile

ARGers* have to be some of the only people that will look twice at spam.


*or wait, are we CFers now? CFer doesn't really have the same ring to it..

Thanks a lot, guys. I personally didn't know that reading your spam could lead to a rabbit hole. I did figure the find was usually based on luck or tips to the admins, but your added advice has helped pretty immensely. Smile

Thanks again Very Happy

P.S. Thank you also, Mikeyj, for the interaction thread link. I didn't even think to find anything like it. Smile
