The Burning Man and The Serpent Mother fight for the crown
Enigma

I've been too worked up on this progressthroughtrial thing and I was staring at my ceiling when I had a thought: Does an ARG get some of its following from its name? Not permenatly, but is that was draws people in? So then I decided we needed a contest! The rules are simple: Come up with an enigmatic title or phrase and then an explanation of what it means. If you feel like it you can even drop your opinion after it. But its all in good fun.

So, me first. I admit I sort of cheated on this one. The Burning Man and The Serpent Mother are both huge flaming demonstrations that hundreds of people come miles to attend. TBM came first but I always thought the idea of a moving automated flaming snake bigger than a tractor trailer truck was the single coolest thing on earth. Thus I like the idea of them duking it out for supremecy. Preferably in the middle of Tokyo while people gasp in shock and awe at it.

Complimentary Condensed Cereals Capers

Here's an example that could take the average player a moment or two to decipher, 'The Complimentary Condensed Cereals Caper'.

A title somewhat more befitting could be 'The Free Beer Game'.

Which one would attract more interest?
