Whats so great about ARG's?

Hi everyone,

I'm currently writing my dissertation in the UK on the world of alternate reality games. I'm very interested in the motivation people have to help out in a ARG community, which can involve a large amount of time.

So my question to you is, what do you like about ARG's that keeps you interested in playing them? Do you mind that you have to rely on a community for the game to be completed? Do you not miss the individual control you had when playing video games?

Would you ever like more of a reward for the part you play in an ARG?

It would be great to hear from you all, keep me posted!

Dear Admins/Mods: this topic is duplicated here, with a fair amount of discussion too.

Can we get a Locky! here? thanks.

Oh, no! The dancing lockiness remains a great treasure; he just retired the plain, staticky, non-dancing lock. Smile
