You should see what it's like when the release of info isn't tied to the office (availability of support and monitoring) hours of the PMs and half of us don't have to either stealth-out or field the "What are you doing?" questions at work.

ARGing must be a blast at work, especially if someone catches a glimpse of some kind of pseudo-hacking metagame.

Not quite, there was the last event with the buildings in NY and Chicago being defaced by the Joker after CFB had lit up the bat signals on the side of each building earlier in the night at their mini-rallies. I believe the URL for KickingandScreening was found the same night, if I remember correctly, because I was watching a live stream of the event in Chicago when it all went down. Hope that's not the case with next Wednesday as I more than likely wont be a near a computer to nab a pass if I'm out in the field.

I'm assuming/hoping that Atlanta will be part of the event, and if it is, I will be on the ground and need some back up.


Essentially correct, except that this happened 72 hours after the initial lighting of the batsignal in Chicago and NYC, which was seen at the rallies. The website had the countdown timer going, and when it expired it showed the signals on their respective buildings getting defaced. At the same time, the majority of websites that were involved with the ARG were also defaced with puzzle pieces on them that led to kickingandscreening.

And, I just realized that I've been suckered into it again. When Why So Serious ended, there was major withdrawal. Now, history is about to repeat itself! Bang Head

Try using the 89 stickers as transdermal patches to help ween you off of the ARG? Very Happy

This. Smile Thankfully, my boss-person knows what I do outside work, and as long as I actually get work done, I have to try to give the impression of working to everyone else in the office Smile doesn't help when your desk is right by the lunchroom ARG

No if you're supposed to be working Wink
Also, not when you actually have work responsibilities that override ARG responsibilities... like, say, full-company meetings that cause you to miss an entire events Razz

Don't forget getting called-on in a phone meeting and you have to stifle the impulse to say, "Not now! I'm saving the Cheerleader!" and at least try to sound like you were listening to the call.

Out of some kind of desperation, I just tried calling my own phone from the operative phone (hadn't done this before since I thought credit was limited and had no way to tell how much credit was available) - it comes up with a message on the screen saying "connecting to server", then nothing, no dial tone or anything. So I lock the phone. Then I get a call on the operative phone that, when I pick up, then calls the number I was trying to dial originally (my own phone).

I've never seen or heard of that happening before, anyone else know what that's about? At least now I know the number of the operative phone, and that it's capable of making and receiving calls...


Toronto here, I get the same connect to server, but no call back. Initially my phone had a UK charger.... I'm figuring that our phones were inadvertently sent to the wrong cities. I can't get a peep out of mine.

As it's been stated many times so far they are looking for a major presence online and offline for this event. So I suppose if you actually have any interest in this event still then yes.

Yea I don't blame ya. As long as this one doesn't go the way of Pit Cell and we actually have chances to make it to the real locations in time this event should be loads of fun for all involved. Maybe some locations will even go live streaming online.
