Funnel Productions upcoming ARG
Several of us just finished playing Funnel Production's Transition Village 2 and at the end of the ARG we were given a URL to www.puritytowers.com. As of right now there is a timer (20 days until it goes live) and an e-mail address for joining the mailing list. Figured I would get the thread going and ready so that when it goes live we can hit the ground running.

I received the following automated response upon signing up for the mailing list:

Quote:
Welcome to the Purity Towers mailing list. Answering the high volume
of email we receive takes time, so please bear with us. To ensure a
timely response, alert your spam filters. Common email programs and
hosting sites will generally work with our messages, but watch your
junk mail folder to be safe. Hearing back from Party members is
important to us, so please feel free to email us with any ideas,
concerns, or hopes for Purity Towers and all Party properties.

Over the years, the Party has worked hard to provide an excellent way
of life. Under the supervision of our leaders, all Party members live
in security and peacefulness. Thank you again for your interest.

Sincerely,

Melvin Smith
Communications Coordinator - Properties Division




UPDATE: (Thanks Pinkcloud!)

The story so far:
There are two sides, the Grotians, an underground movement, and the Proscript Party, which is a political party with a strong affinity to security, order and prosperity. Their newest project is the Purity Towers, which is the new "Zone" to live for the party members. Players have been contacted by Melvin Smith, the coordinator of PP, as well as Selvin Myth who works for the Grotians cause.

Melvin and Selvin turn out to be the same person who asks us to help the Grotian movement in different ways and channel our strengths in teams (communication, sabotage, recon). On our ning site you can join those. The communication team had to provide us with a secret code which we'll have to use with PP members who secretly want to work for the Grotians. The code (a mix of Al Bhed and ROT) will be announced every week on uF.

To start as new player, you'd have to send e-mails to both Melvin and Selvin so 'both' get your e-mail address (Melvin stays in his role as a party communicator and has asked us to address him as such), and then join
one of our teams on ning. There are players who've been turning to the PP side, so beware as players can play for either side and you never know who you can trust!

It was revealed via a YouTube Message that Randy and Earl of Sticky Itchers fame have made a business deal with Purity Towers to provide their famous shower scrub to the towers.

UPDATE (08/13/09):
Melvin sent out an update detailing the party's effort to capture L. Waltershield, the Grotian Underground leader, and reassured players they could contact him with info on said leader with anonymity. It was also indicated that a few units in Purity Towers would be made available to players in the near future on the Proscript Party webpage as well as a new message from the party. In a second e-mail Melvin slipped up and asked to RECALL the e-mail, "Deputies:" immediately...

UPDATE (08/14/09):
With Melvin on the run the party president, Garfield Jameson, took it upon himself to contact party members and update them. The Purity Towers website is now functional and Garfield announced that the owner of the tower is Phil Thomas.

E-mail addresses:

Garfield Jameson: yourproscriptpartySPLATgmail.com
Melvin Smith: puritytowersSPLATgmail.com
Selvin Myth: grotiangatewaySPLATgmail.com
Melissa Alsford (Possible Grotian sympathizer within the Prospect Party): melissaalsfordSPLATgmail.com

 		Haven't played either Transition Village, but I sent an email to the address.

Do you think any TV knowledge will be needed to play this?

Nah, most of their games are done in such a way that new players can come in without missing a beat. If anything TV related does come up we can fill you in.

 		I'll see what this is about. I have some other things going on, so I may not be able to do more than lurk this one, but who knows what will happen in 20 days. Smile

 		Now that I seem to have solved my employment crisis (which made me have to quit TV2) I hopefully can be on board for this one. I miss my fellow ARG mates!
