Welcome to r/ARG

Discord: http://discord.gg/6M9J2R9

Our goal is to bring you the latest news and reviews on ARGs (Alternate Reality Games). Along with great links to ARG stories, articles and the odd meme. Join us as as we try to stay on top of the most popular ongoing ventures into alternate realities*!*

Please feel free to message the mods if you have any questions or if there is anything else you would like to see on the subreddit.

Spoilers:

If you post a spoiler please use the following tag in order to hide the font from those that don't want to see it.

Rules

r/ARG has an official discord link that can be seen in the sidebar. Please do not post links to other ARG solving communities.

Do not post personal information. If you find a name/address or any other personal information, please inform the owner of the personal information immediately. If it is part of a game, be wary of posting it. Posting personal information that is not obviously part of a game will result in a swift and permanent ban. We have a 0 tolerance policy to Doxing.

Do not make threats or call other Redditors names. If any of this makes it's way into a post or comment, the offending parties will be banned without question.

No spam/reposting. If there is already a post related to a specific ARG on the sub that's less than one day old, then do not make a new post about it. Add new info as comments/edits to the latest post to keep information in one place.

Post titles must be in plain English - no codes.

No gamejacking and no advertising your own ARG in posts about other ARGs.

Meme posts must be tagged with the "Meme" flair (Go to me.reddit.com/r/ARG to view the sub without meme posts)

If your post is about a website or social media account (twitter, instagram, youtube, etc) posting only a picture of it or its name is not allowed. You must include a clickable link in your post.

Posts that are deemed low quality may be removed without notice, for instance if they include any of the following examples:

A vague and non-descriptive post title

A post title written in capital letters

A picture with no context or explanation

A post that consists mostly of code

A video which is just a static photo or is very short

1st Ban = 1 Week; 2nd Ban = Permanent.

Please remember that if you link your own ARG, people dig. They dig deep, and if there is any chance of finding personal information, they will. We, the mods, have no way of knowing if it is part of a game or not. Please be sure that when you start a trailhead you have checked all aspects of your game for any information that may lead to your personal information. i.e. DNS settings, Website WhoIS, Admin Contact emails, etc.
