Sorry to hear that Vecheeso.

Maybe something a little more subtle would get her into it.

My wife is into the ARG but I didn't spring it on her by saying "Hey let's drive 3 hours away"

I started by explaining the story to her and she thought it was genius, then she started to get into it.

She also loved following the Cloverfield Viral/ARG.

There are other ARG's out there that she might be into. Give it a try. You should check out some other stuff in Chaotic Fiction and see if there's anything that might interest her fancy.

Good luck.
Smile

Thanks

Its cool, she wasnt totally freaked, just worried about it and such. Thanks for the ideas. If not, its cool, its like being a secret agent, i get to live a life on the side, with all these 'cases' (arg's) and she will never know. It's kinda cool Razz

Just went to the Garcetti website, http://www.trustgarcetti.com/ and since im at work and we have inter-company email through Outlook, I clicked on the tab "volunteer" and it popped up the email address in outlook. it was volunteersSPLATtrustgarcetti.com
and i got a reply back
"Thank you for supporting the Garcetti campaign. By supporting me, you are choosing leadership and experience over rhetoric.

Our website has suggestions for ways you can further support my campaign.

some A-hole is selling the Portland bag on ebay?!!!??!?!

From what I've gathered it's a Radio Station.

This just breaks all the rules and takes the fun out of it.

Not to mention the ridiculous price they have on it.


I was just listening to their morning show. He announced that he was lowering the price to $15k. He said something about a scheduled text message or phone call that will be received tomorrow, and if by that time the stuff hasn't sold, he will break the phone with the bowling ball.

*eta He's just given out SHH forum name, and asked the radio audience to go there and post.

is there any way we can contact the guys who that station work for and complain? or even a radio station contact #? if all of us call and complain, it should have something done. but then again, maybe its just something we have to deal with as a possibility for such things, cant control the players and all...

Portlanders should be able to go complain in person, It's not like radio stations broadcast from secret underground bunkers. We should all be able to complain by phone; unfortunately I'm at work and can't call right now. Mad

I don't think dealing with asshats like these was part of 42E's plan, and someone at the station needs to intervene. The phones are given out as part of a game, and destroying one, a total asshat move, is an even harder kick to the crotch for those of us actually enjoying the game. Mad

On a separate note, i'm wondering if anyone might wonder how the stories tie-in. It seems that Garcetti is in the palm of Joker's hand, or maybe he is a corrupt politician who Joker likes because he doesnt get in the way. We have Gordon now on our backs making us work for him. It seems we were set up by the Joker, or the Joker was had by Gordon. And on the side, we have the people running for DA, 3 of them. Not to mention the smear campaign against Dent. I wonder when and how these will all tie in, and what the next step is, any ideas?

Welcome, no need to apologize. I think we all feel similarly about those guys.
