Angry Guests

[r.m]

Most people go to movies to be entertained. The story is played out on a screen before us, which we watch. There is no real interaction with the characters or storyline. It requires nothing more from us than our attention and the price of a ticket. Normally no one questions why we do this.

Most people engage in ARGs to be entertained. The story is played out in the real and cyber worlds. There is actual interaction with the characters and the storyline. It requires our attention, curiosity, speculation, investigation and collaboration to keep the storyline moving and hopefully come to a satisfying resolution. And it's free. What's wrong with a little critical thinking?

Either you get it or you don't.

IMO – it beats sodoku, crossword puzzles and golf.

So Chainsaw;

Are you suggesting Dr. Guest is perhaps afflicted "Truna Gandung?"


And Gramma;

Nah, don't think it's JJ, I've actually heard he's quite the nice fellow. It just surprises me (though the longer I've been involved with this ARG, I see this type drop in, distract, madden, and strike up an attitude) when you try and offer some help. They want the easy answer without having to do the research. I mean this forum could be better, but the fact that it has SO many threads on numerous subjects and access to a search engine could have easily have answered our dear Guest's questions if he/she/it had just taken the time to look!

If you want it clearer than the game summary, maybe try wikibruce super8 http://super8.wikibruce.com/Home Much more manageable

PS. A little patience on the site reveals the chat after the "IP address not recognized" flashes up.

P.P.S. OOG - A little Axelrod perhaps? (skip to "Problems") http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tit_for_tat

Hey all... Been in read only mode myself since getting crazy busy at work for the past month or so. Regardless, it seems to me that "Guest" has no real interest in participating, and can't even take the time to read about ten minutes of game summary. Trying to water down the complexities of the story achieves basically nothing, and now that he's successfully gotten in his self-aggrandizing intellectual one-upmanship glory moment (albeit regarding his lack of time to read for ten minutes (which gets funnier considering the amount of effort doubtlessly put into his multiple posts about how little time he has for this)), I think we should probably stop engaging somebody who clearly has no interest in contributing. And since he clearly doesn't "get" the game, no worries.

WTF?
