 		New to the ARG experience...
Howdy guys and gals! I was drawn to the ARGN site while searching up things on Eon8 (Didn't expect it to end that way!), and I found my way here. To be honest, I've never played an ARG before, and after reading up on this a little, it seems to be a good one. However, I was looking around on these forums trying to piece together what has happened so far, and I really dont know what has been going on, let alone where a good starting point would now be. Could someone please give me a little help on this subject? Or should get my little newbie butt moving and try to figure this all out? Embarassed

 		howdy, welcome!!!

well, for starters, halfway down the screen was a post where to start:
http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=15310but that really only links to a page with all the in-game links.

beyond that really you just need to kinda read the forums. Hopefully someone will start up the wiki for ctw2 soon {i just don't have the know-how} and that can get newer players all caught up easier, but for now, just read read read. LOL.

And for some background you might try this http://www.chasingthewish.net/

Next you should read this:

And This:

Next you should take a look at this http://www.thewishcomic.com/journal/ There is a puzzle in this and when you give up you can follow the story here http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=15080
Have a poke around on this site http://aglauranj.org/index.php

You'll find many links to websites from the above. Below is few that might not be so easily found.

 		I've read alot of the sites listed, and It all seems very interesting, though there's alot of questions I need answered, though I'll try to figure it out myself first. Judging from what you've said, you're about as lost as I am. I take it i didn't jump in to late? Thank you for all the help you've given me, by the way! I appreciate it! Very Happy

don't judge too quick, neither sylvia nor i are lost in the least - not sure why you made the assumption. I stand by what i said, reading the forums is just about the best way to get caught up at the moment, and far too much has been going on to go over it all again. You are not jumping in too late in the least, between the forums and the chat, you should be caught up in no time! and welcome again!!! This PM leader is in my opinion the best, and ALWAYS puts together great teams with great games!
