[arg_discuss] ARG´s main target profile

[Adrian Hon]

Some statistics:

The average age of a registered Perplex City player is 26; however,  
the age spread is very wide. According to (relatively unscientific)  
surveys, approximately half our players are female. Last time I  
looked, around half of our players were in the US and half were in  
the UK.

It's worth bearing in mind that these are the numbers for players  
registered on perplexcity.com - registration is required to solve  
puzzle cards, but not to play the ARG. There is an overlap, but we  
don't have good figures for solely the ARG players. This is one of  
the things we intend to change in Season 2.
