You're so kind! Thank you, Patrick, for getting back to me so quickly, and
for letting me know you've found it useful already. :)

I still welcome ideas for development too!

Christy - that's fantastic. I showed it to the team here, and everyone found
it very interesting and thought-provoking. The format was clear, and the
shots of Dark Knight were particularly useful for us as European players who
were prohibited early on from taking part... getting players to actively
encourage others to join in order to remove pixels is a superb idea.

Hey everyone,



The following is a resource I've been working on myself, but am thinking
I'll add it in some way to the ARG Design section of ARGology. In it I draw
on existing game design patterns for social interaction, and see how they
apply to ARGs. The listing I have is just a quick draft.

I'd love to hear you thoughts on examples to add, anything you don't agree
with, and also how I should present the information. I don't find the manner
I have presented it at the moment user-friendly. Should I move it to the
ARGology wiki for instance?



I would appreciate any thoughts you have.and I hope you find this resource
interesting and/or helpful.and feel compelling to contribute to it. :-)



Regards,

Christy
