[TRAILHEAD] inFamous Paper Trail 42 Entertainment I don't usually post about videogame virals but the domain registration for some of the sites is Kevin Burkhardt of 42 Entertainment.
This is for the game inFamous: Second Son.
The website enjoyyourpower.com was found in the most recent trailer for the game. There are more sites to explore and you can even submit your mailing address.
infamouspapertrail.com appears to be the main login page and keeps track of your activities.

IGN got a package regarding Paper Trail.

great! i'll have to look into this. i just caught the commercial on tv. however, i think a quick primer on the game content will be needed for those who wish to participate. most likely it leads to some dlc.

When I finished the quiz it asks me to log in, and I get this message, "Testing Kits are no longer available for your country. Check back for an Online Sensory Test—Coming soon."
And I can get my karma.

There's also http://bioframediagnostics.com as mentioned by IGN in the video via the brochure in the package.
I guess the question is - will a story be unraveling in the Infamous universe here, or are these sites to just extend the game's world and provide a platform to increase gameplay stats? =/

And no one mentioned http://conduitrightsleague.com/ yet.
Four websites so far (and an OutOfGame twitter for the producers)

There's also one more site that's currently inactive but has the same 42E domain registration.
And now that I've rechecked the domain data turns out it's been privatized.

I'm "in" on this one. Been awhile since my last "full participation"...the Tron ARG (also by 42).
Not sure this will be as robust as Tron (release date for I:SS is the 21st)..but we'll see.
There is now a quiz up at http://conduitrightsleague.com which will get you even more karma added to your papertrail account. Here are the answers:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
1) They all carry the conduit gene
2) Activated and Conduit-Positive
3) Unknown
4) Sensory Testing
5) Unknown
6) Activated Conduits are immortal
7) Some conduits can manipulate synthetic elements
8 ) Behave normally
9) The majority of the people with the Conduit gene died, but some survived.
10) Communication, research, acceptance
Waiting on the next thing to pop.
In the papertrail account...there are 6 achievies listed. The quiz unlocks number 3, so there are 3 left...one of which is listed as ""Conduit + Sensory test" and two of which are listed as "locked".
The 6th one, though, has an asterisk under it that would seem to indicate it "goes live" on the day I:SS releases (March 21).

Not sure if it's directly related to the ARG but there's a phone number found in this Press Kit Unboxing vid.
1-844-HELP-DUP @3:23

Called the number when it was "outed" on the IGN unboxing.
It's interesting context...but (at that point, at least, a few days ago) it didn't seem to lead to any further progress on the trail.
It was a recording...not a live drop.

I had a similar problem. I had to change browsers to get it to work (though they may have fixed the bug on Tuesday), using Chrome rather than my "normal" Mozilla.

The Collectors Edition has an insert that reveals more about what Paper Trail is all about.

Looks like some people are getting their Home Kits. I haven't gotten one yet, or if I will, but if you did, log in and go take the new test.
enjoyyourpower.com/test
There's two tests, one for the home testing kit, and an online one.
Here are my results for the online one:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
You have a 88% probability of conduitism. Type : MASONRY. Although we can't determine the precise composition of your genetic makeup without the benefit of a full medical screening, your test results have yielded some fascinating results.
Masonry Conduits can absorb and manipulate bricks and mortar. They can quickly erect barriers or small brick structures from debris, and sculpt existing brick structures into impressive shapes. This ability is useful for developing cheap, durable housing in underdeveloped areas.
