Seems like this is just a means to gather user information (I admit I'm no stranger to signup pages), possibly in anticipation of a new game that's completely unrelated.

When I first saw the title of this post, I immediately started to panic! My first thought was "Oh NO.... the sock triplets are back!!"
I'm sssoooo glad there are no ferrets involved here.

Hey, I wear socks too! I'm going to sign up right now.
Hoping this will exlain the inter-dimensional portal in my dryer where single socks vanish too. Somewhere in an alternate universe there are a whole bunch of unmatched socks...

Huh I just got a response. I didn't play the previous game so i didn't really know what to say in an email. So i just said "Your ideas are ridiculous" He responded with, "Yeah?
Well, what's your super great idea?
~Tim"
Now what?

Just out of curiosity, what do they want your address for?
Sorry for being so cautious, I'm new to ARG's.

as far as wanting our addresses - it could be for a kloo in the mail, or a bit of swag. considering they want it by a specific date, they are prob mailing whatever it is to whomever they choose by or around that date.
As for comminucating with the chars - last game they were VERY good with communicating, and most of it had nothing at all to do with the game. Just fluff to flesh them out. They are awesome like that. However, emailing a char an insult doesn't exactly say to me "hey let's be friends"
Also, remember, this appears to be pregame.

I started into Must Love Robots .. but felt that it limited it's audience a bit in the interactions. But knowing the reviews that it got from those who were allowed to play .. I'll give it another shot.
*crosses fingers for fun*

Wow, why does this offend me?
#1 grassroots game, there were *4* people PMing/BTS...
#2 if you didn't get a personal response from a char, well, i'm sorry but get over it. Other than impersonal form emails, there isn't a single game i've played where every single person playing gets to char interact.
#3 if you didn't get to participate in the live meets in NYC or ARGFest - read my response for #2
#4 you have been playing args long enough to know this stuff... come on now.
allowed to play...
ETA - Kona's point about the videos is quite valid, but I did not get the impression from the post by Insane24Seven that it was about youtube.

*I* couldn't play because *I* was in Iraq at the time (couldn't watch the videos). However, I enjoyed reading about it in uF.
And I'm back in the states this time, so looking forward to meeting these guys.
