 		Been lurky-lurking too much lately. This might be just what I need to light a fire under my ass and get me actively ARGing Smile

 		Been wanting to actually try an ARG for awhile (though I've been researching them like crazy). Just signed up for Must Love Socks.

 		According to ARGNet this is going to be the mother of all transmedia experiences.

 		They sure are taking a while to update anything about it... I wonder what was so special about 6/19/10?

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. [SNIP] Also, remember, this appears to be pregame.


also, since it is obvious you already read the ARGN article, Jim did say that the "narrative isn't a continuation of the narrative from MLR" which to me says we aren't waiting for an update so much as the trailhead itself. Like Nighthawk said - this is just a signup page, a way to gather info in prep for a possibly unrelated game. So be patient, for cheese sake... LOL

Not at all!
Right now is a great time to sign up since the game hasn't started yet. Very Happy

Must Love Socks sign up

(SPEC: It is possible that one or two of the people who signed up before June 19th might get a postcard in the mail, or a mobile phone sock, or maybe even an email containing instructions to fold an origami sock. No one knows for sure yet. Smile)

It means that 90% of the population will faint in amazement when seeing the trailhead, while 8% will grumble and talk about starting their own competing ARG, and while the last 2% will complain about it not having a front facing sock conferencing camera. Wink

 		You forgot the subset of people that just think it's an oversized finger warmer. Wink

 		I have to admit that I wasn't part of Must Love Robots in any way, but I definitely plan on participating in Must Love Socks!

Consider me all signed up!

 		[META] Put yo' cheddar where yo' socks is.
Meta spoilers ahead.

Here there be minor name, plot, and/or game mechanic spoilers. Also, possibly dragons.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Socks, Inc. (!) has a Kickstarter page. The page has a spoilerish meta video describing the project and also a couple of other interesting links.

How much do you love robots and socks now?! I myself have loved them at least a few dozen times, and that's just today. Don't you think that sort of devotion is worth a little donation? Jim's only given us until August 6th to put a ring on it.



This post contains no actual dragons. Sad

 		I'm a sucker for good producers! And since we're not starting until August, I'm going to have the time to really get involved!

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I'm signed up as an Executive Producer Smile
