 		First ARG for a while.
I *think* I'm in...but I'm not registered to vote, and I can't access Ning from school Razz
When I get home I'll take a look at the ning site and see if I can't fake my registry, at least for this site.

Edit--
Don't think I'm trouting, but there's a message in green letters on the site under About the Campaign:
Quote:

The Man of the People is the only presidential candidate com*m*itted to you. His interests are l*o*cal, his loyalties are few, and his highest prio*r*ity is that your governmental needs are met.

When you step in*t*o the voting booth this November, you won't find *h*is name on the b*a*llot. That's because he wants it to be very clear that he is not like the others. I*n* order to vote for the Man of the People, you'll have to write him in.

Needless to say, the challenges of electing a write-in candidate are numerous. Bringing about the kind of change the *M*an seeks is never *e*asy.

W*e*'re confident that through our Campaign Network, word-of-mouth, and by recruiting the best and brightest supporters, our Campaign will put the Man of the People into the White House. We'll pu*t* America on a cour*s*e for lasting prosperity and peace.

The Six-Week Plan
Our plan is simple. In six-weeks, we'll achieve support levels high enough to win the Presiden*t*ial Election. The Man isn't running to gat*h*er attention for a particular cause, lik*e* some third-party candidates would. He's running for nothing less than the Presidency, and with our plan, we're confident that he will get just that.
The plan calls for an active support base consisting of th*e* best and brightest politically active citizens in the country. Each week, our supporters will engage in sociall*y* and intellectually stimulating challenges that will build a community, broaden political understanding, and, most importantly, g*e*t the word out.
Our supporters will share their own personal and local platforms. We want to know what you need to have done in your area. We want to know how the federal government can help your city, state, and other local governments. Most of all, we want to know you and your family. We want to know your interests. We want to know your dreams.
Join us. Help us refocus Washington's attention on the People of America.


The message reads 'more than meets the eye'.

 		I called the call-in number for the radio show. It is by BlogTalkRadio not the individual stations so there is nothing there right now except a message saying there are no shows scheduled in the next 24 hrs.

Just a thought here: if that site is in-game, could it have to do with My Name Is Earl? Just saying...

 		@Salsaman1991

Considering the fact that They finally stabilized The Social Network software they are using for The Office game, I doubt they would host a MNIE game on someone else's network.

 		I think this is a little more than an ARG, at least I'm hoping so.

I think this is a proper write-in for one man, who is truly the man of the people.

I was wondering if James Thomas was a player or a character. Thanks for clearing that up. P.E Dant (who from his profile appears IG) just wrote on my wall:

 		While I am disappointed at the PM's lack of knowledge of the BCC field when sending their e-mail, I'll hop on board cause I don't have much else going on. This could definitely be interesting.
