So we can think of the discussion as happening in an alternate reality where
you did? LOL How fitting for this group! If there had just been some ROT
code in your initial message, this would have been the first-ever SIGARG ;)

Although I've enjoyed the resulting conversation very much, I want to clear
up that I didn't mean the www.badviralmarketing.com site should be put up by
the ARG community and advertised as such. I just meant 'we' in a casual
sense. :)

Doesn't that seem a little out-of-scope for the ARG community?

I think Christy is right-on with the counter campaign site idea. it
could function as both a check-list of current viral marketing
campaigns ("hmmm, this video has some pretty high-quality post
production for something a group of 12 year-olds supposedly put
together. I better check with www.badviralmarketing.com and see who is
behind it.") and also as a "hall of fame" for the worst of the worst.

it seems like once people figure out they have been tricked, they are
usually pretty fired up and willing to vote, describe, complain and so
on. all we need is a central clearinghouse for that disgust.
