[arg_discuss] More Introductions

[David Fono]

Hi everyone! This seems like a good time to stop lurking (thanks Tony).

I'm a big fan of ARGs and I have been for a while. I've been keeping  
track of the medium since ILB, but I've seriously started to play  
within the last year. I'm interested in ARGs because they represent  
an intersection of a variety of topics that are close to my heart:  
game design, immersive storytelling, online cooperation and community  
building. ARGs are like a dream nexus of everything that is wonderful.

Recently I was the founder and creator of Torgame, which was an  
enormously huge team effort to apply ARGish principles to meatspace  
in support of urban exploration. It practically killed me and now I'm  
volunteering at a telecentre in rural Nigeria to chill out and take a  
break. However, I am a sucker for punishment, and new projects are in  
the works.

I've enjoyed the discussions on this list so far, and I look forward  
to participating in future ones!

Cheers,
David Fono
