Am beginning to wish that PMs would find a more creative way to launch a game than a cryptic IM conversation.. Its gotten kinda jaded.

I sitll like our last effort, Missing flyers sent out all over the place Smile

I do like the one that almost everything has been via AIM. It's a nice break from all the really puzzle-based ARGs, and have some interaction instead (WI is like that too, I think).

True, but the launching format is gotten a tad over used. just like the camera trick used on Matrix 1.

There's not many options if you have little to no budget. ILB was able to send packages and stuff because of Microsoft. It's a bit hard for a few PMs to do that if they have maybe $200 to spend on this. I found the MetaCortechs launch fairly unique when I read the book.

I definetly like the Aim approach but all these arg's are getting each me confused, they all starting at the same time and what not. I love em, but it's alot to take in so quickly.

Maybe some poor PM with a thing for the letters HKDL is challenging himself. You know, make three ARGs at once...
Or its a prank... you'd know about that, wouldn't you HKDL?

Why is:
a) the references to mother
and
b) the use of "Hich"

Making me think of "Psycho"?

Why does "Hich" imply psycho?
