I don't think I'd mind if it was only 5. They're known for having weird, over the top commercials. I hope to see more of them in this, like all those years they were really connected to this underground facility where researchers were trying to preserve or enhance human perception. And the fruity React is my favorite gum.

It would be pretty subversive if it were just for gum, though. There's no overt, in your face images of anyone chewing gum; no connection to product except providing exclusive codes on the packs of gum. Maybe its an advertising experiment in which they get to measure interaction with both the ARG and perceive the impact on buying patterns - did sales change when the codes were "discovered", is purchase related to time spent "playing"?

I imagine the gum WE buy is less important than the amount of time we talk about this ARG with our friends. If you look at their website, they think in terms of enthusiastic participants (us), active (a bigger group that maybe doesn't do it on the first night a new puzzle comes out) and casual participants, those that have heard of this and think its cool, but may not play much. THAT's the group that is big enough to get Wrigley's attention. And it's us talking up the game that would fire up enough casuals to buy some gum so Wrigley's can hire 42e again and make another game for us...

Yeah, I see this ending one of two ways. Either 5 and 42E are working together to promote some completely new thing that'll be revealed at the end, or 5 has come up with the greatest commercial ever.

I can see it now: at the end, all the "data" they've gathered from us "test subjects" will be used to create some new chemical that'll restore/save humanity, and the vector for this chem will by 5's newest flavor: Salvation.

Or something. I dunno. I find it amusing.
