 Where is Oscar Thompson?
Possible '65 Days Of Static' ARG

So it looks as if the rock band '65 days of static' are up to something. Fans got an email from their mailing list from a girl in the Ukraine claiming to be a girlfriend / lover of Oscar Thompson, someone in their management who's been handling their mailing list for a few years now. She claims he's gone missing.

Since then many myspace pages have appeared and various flash games and codes to solve.

Not sure if it qualifies as a full blown ARG but it certainly has its own original and enjoyable elements. It's not even clear what it's promoting if anything, but the band are about to tour with The Cure, so maybe it's tying in with that somehow !?

Read more about it here:

Some times this place sucks for ARG's and the like.
I would have tried to follow this if it hadn't of started three months ago.
But I had to find out about it on another message board because this probably got pushed off the front page here in a matter of hours.

Why is it that most of what I'm really interested in the world of CF gets ignored in favor of the hyped or easily accessible.

I'm starting to wonder if it isn't time for an alternative ARG board strictly for the little guys so they don't get lost in the mess that is the latest JJ Abrams ARG masterpiece.
