Darn! In the words of Elfquest, "Too many targets, not enough arrows." Too many interesting ARGs I can't play them all! Consider me passively following this if not an active player yet. Maybe I'll join later...

The character setup has a very "Lost Ring" feel... hope there's not too many story arcs to keep track of, or too little actual story to follow. Confused

But we'll see! Good reason to hope for the best =)

THE PLOT THICKENS! (or starts, really...) Huaynaputina is supposed to be a dormant volcano, but there's actual activity there on the mountain. Noxious gases being emitted, enough to kill small animals in the area.

I think Tom and Magda are a couple. Not to be presumptuous, maybe they're just really great pals, but signs point to yes.

Also, Aaron is a very dry reader.

I do wish I knew some Spanish.

I'm sorry to keep replying to my own comments here ... but ... these are some really chatty people! And they are discussing what amounts to saving the world. This is perhaps one of the most produced games I've seen in a while that noone seems to be really interacting with very much. I kinda wonder why it's not getting much traffic, but probably it's because there's very little "call to action," other than that ominous notion of something bad happening somewhere. Thoughts? Anyone? Where do you think this is going?

How do people get these envolopes and emails? I really like to get strated on ARGs, but I dont know how to put my name out there so I get sent these things...

Back on topic, I think its not a climate change related thing, but some kind of Lost-like expiriment were the people running "ready for the big chill" will put the people playingthrough a series of tests.

Or Im just put my ass. Whichever comes first

Just a little tiny stretch of truth I told, here. Magda and Fibriyani asked fFor some help and encouragement, so I have done this a day or two ago:

So there I was, explaining to a coworker about the volcano thing, when the phone rings and I am suddenly shouting about earthquakes and tsunamis in japan. Coworkers thought I was pretty insane. This is not a game.

So, uh, I wonder if Big Chill will go on hold, or take this opportunity to unveil a greater cause of the game.

Q: will "Ready fFor the big Chill" go on hold after an actual global catastrophe?
A: No.

Three eruptions have begun. Kaboom! Tom has gone to Peru to be with Magda. Towns and villages are evacuating. The U.N. is concerned.

Are you ready...?

THE END!

Three Months later, Magda looks non-specifically at peace. With, you know, things. And isn't it great how she's gotten to know us all! Thank you in a very general way!

... I'm thinking this was maybe supposed to happen after 3 actual months. And then the actual catastrophe happened, maybe, and they decided to pull the plug early, maybe.
