[arg_discuss] ARG stats update

When I said 'outsiders' I was referring to Film & TV industry awards.
Although these awards are fantastic and do acknowledge great projects (eg:
ReGenesis ERGs), I think that an internal ARG community award system would
be wonderful. If there are ones already I don't know about -- tell me! :)

Thanks Bryan! Sure, blog away.

As for the order according to size. I originally had the list in order of
size (I presume you mean player numbers), but that lead to sometimes false
interpretations about the quality of the ARGs and also I don't have enough
stats on all of them to order them correctly.

Personally, another list that I would find interesting is one in which the
ARGs are discussed according to their impact -- both in terms of player
numbers AND innovation in design AND community satisfaction etc. I think the
latter though can really only be garnered through some sort of ARG community
awards. Since outsiders really don't know the qualities of ARGs that have
been innovative and well-designed, the ARG community needs to get these
awards happening. Unfiction, ARGNet, Deaddrop, Immersion Unlimited....?

That's very, very useful to have, Christy.

On reflection, a list ordered by size would be useful to show, too.

Mind if I blog it?

And thanks for the work!

Hello All,



Just letting you know that I'm in the process of updating my ARG stats post
and writing it up (as requested) for the ARG Media Kit. If you're a PM or
simply have some stats (including detail about awards) that you can pass
onto me that would be great. The original post is here:

tats/



If you could forward me any info either through this list or direct to my
email by mid October that would be fab.



Regards,

Christy
