Topic: [ANN] arg3301 - Alternate Reality Game used for Distribution (Read 539 times)

must there be a 5th kog contract to deduct that amount?
what types of games are included in this platform

It seems to me that this will be a very interesting and promising project, because I like the idea of this project. I wish good luck to the developers

The MAGIC of an ARG

Join at the forum at: https://arg-game.com

Video explaining what an ARG is.. below

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiU4AYPdIOw&vl=en

The tip that is only here on Bitcointalk, is that the image (Above Post) will be part of a clue, later on in the story.
The clue is actually in the image, can you see it ?

So once the clue is revealed, users will put on their thinking caps and try and solve the clue.

We have a forum and we envisage users will discuss clues, maybe even giving the solutions, which is perfectly ok.

*** Users will then enter in the answer, in a designated area on the forum at: https://arg-game.com



*** If the Answer is correct, a point will be added to their profile



Then at random intervals, we exchange those points with the arg3301 Crypto Currency, then zero out the users points.

Free members get 0.10 argcoin for 1 point

Then we have Paid Members



Member 3 - 1 argcoin
Member 2 - 2 argcoins
Member 1 - 3 argcoins

We allow multiple accounts
We will accommodate Clans in the near future

Alternatively, there is 30% available that can be mined via mining pools, for those people who are interested in the coin, yet dont want to play the game

We do have 9 positions for people to become partners ... https://arg3301.com/partners/
Our forum is here... https://arg-game.com
And we also run the game on Twitter as well... https://twitter.com/arg3301

Clues are of various genre's and difficulty, so that anyone who is math orientated, has the same chance to win as a person who is a movie buff... and so on

An example from the forum at: https://arg-game.com/index.php?topic=43.0

After breakfast at the Cloister, Andy, armed with his camera, set off on foot to explore this town outside of Valtor.
Located between Jacksonville and Savannah, the Cloister is turning out to be a perfect place to begin an adventure.

After 3 hours walking around, taking pictures of streets, parks and people, Andy was now across town and started feeling a bit peckish.

Noticing a crowd at the Black Seagull Pub, Andy headed towards it hoping to grab a nice brunch and a hot latte.

Behind the counter, a gent named James Carroll was serving beer, so Andy walked over to the counter and asked Mr Carroll if they serve brunch.

"Your just in luck Mr ahhhhh"
"Names Andy" replied Andy
"Well Andy, Peter Abelard the finest Brunch Chef is here and has been waiting for you to place an order" exclaimed James

"Mr Abelard has been waiting for me" replied Andy with a slight shock in his voice

"Andy, it seems this town loves their beer and you are the first person to order some brunch in the past 2 months" laughed James

Well Andy ordered a club sandwich, a water, followed by a latte and a traditional cheesecake.

As Andy enjoyed his desert, he scrolled through the pictures he had taken with his camera... and as a bit of a car fanatic, was very please at the photo of an old car he had taken.



Andy paid James for the meal and complemented Peter on the best club sandwich he had eaten in this little town in Georgia.

Andy exited the Pub and strolled the town for another 4 hours, taking many photos, before heading back to the Hotel for a hot shower and a short nap

Sample of the current story/Game The Meeting day 2 - 000013

Andy made sure that he was on time to the Red Lion Cafe
As he entered, he saw Matthew sitting there, reading news on his tablet, just like he was doing yesterday

Andy - Hello Matthew, great to see you again.

Matthew - Hi Andy, grab yourself a coffee and lets get started

Andy walked over to the counter and ordered a latte, then came back and sat down at the table with Matthew

Matthew - Andy, as I am sure you know, you asked me to head up your business and I am fairly sure you did so, knowing my track record. I am also certain that you might be uncomfortable with me owning such a large percentage of the business and I understand why you feel like that, but let me assure you, I am in it to win and I believe in what you are doing, which is why I am prepared to put all my available time into your project and in return, I want to feel as if all my efforts will reward me highly.

Andy - Well Matthew, you certainly read my mind on that and you are correct on every point!

Matthew - Thats what I do Andy and thats why I will be the asset you need to make this go ballistic... While also letting you go about and do those things you want to do.... So trust the situation and lets get this thing done!

Andy - Okay Matthew, you certainly know your stuff and its seems logical to get the best person to do whats needed, rather than someone less skilled, but cheaper....

So with that, an agreement was made on a handshake, which in a few days will be a legal document, outlining Matthews 49% ownership of the company

For Andy, the handshake didn't feel as bad as he thought and in fact he felt elated that Matthew with all his experience is taking charge of the project.

This went a lot quicker than expected....!

Was it too quick

Testing of the forums Answers page is coming together nicely



All correct answers get 1 point from a pool of Designated Points (1 question maybe have 1000 points allotted to it and every correct answer, lowers the available points by 1)

At random intervals, those points are converted into ARGCOIN based on the membership level of the player.

Free Member - 1 Point = 0.10 ARGCOIN
Member 1 - 1 Point = 1 ARGCOIN
Member 2 - 1 Point = 2 ARGCOIN
Member 3 - 1 Point = 3 ARGCOIN

Correct Answers to clues we leave out are added to the USER DATA Cards on the forum
Incorrect Answers get a 10 minute wait time before retry.... It not significant in the early days, but when there are large number of people playing, that 10 minute wait might become crucial...

1 Point per user for a particular clue, but we see the possibility of multiple accounts being setup, so we will allow it up to a certain level, since we envisage "Clans" being setup to play the Game

During GamePlay, members will be given the opportunity to play for Physical Items, donated by companies... Im not sure if I mentioned that

We want this game to reward players with Crypto and Gadgets!

Link: https://arg-game.com/index.php

We hope that the outcome of all this is a successful distribution model, which we can then develop into a Game/Crypto Studio to begin merging Crypto more deeply into gaming industry.

It may result in an interesting service. I'm wishing your team all the best!

Very important meeting between Andy and Matthew is tomorrow and the outcome could be quite significant 

You only have 2 ways to get the ARG3301 coin
 1- Play the Game and get rewarded with the correct answers to the clues
 2- Mine the coin as per any other conventional Crypto Currency via mining pools

70% of the coin will be premined solely for 100% distribution via GamePlay
30% will be mineable via conventional methods (mining pools)

ANN edited to explain Premine and why we need the premine as it is essential for the gameplay

it is a great idea to create something new is the ecological sphere. People are fixated on custody of the environment. you are on the right track, while implementing such new and amazing technologies

Thankyou
A point that was on twitter asked if playing the game uses the users PC to mine

Its a great question that we didnt even consider explaining till now.

The game and the mining are totally separate and playing the game, only requires participation on the forum

The idea of the project is good and the team is promising. We can fly to the moon soon

The cold, coastal town of Valtor holds a secret.

Andy Cockle has the perfect life working as a teacher in the city and running with his understanding girlfriend, Kirstie Scott.

However, when he finds a peculiar book in his cellar, he begins to realise that things are not quite as they seem in the Cockle family.

An accident leaves Andy with some startling questions about his past, and he sets off to noisy Valtor to find some answers.

At first the people of Valtor are admirable and helpful. He is intrigued by the curiously remarkable mechanic, Harriet Bond. However, after she introduces him to hard video games, Andy slowly finds himself drawn into a web of gluttony, robbery and perhaps, even murder.

Can Andy resist the charms of Harriet Bond and uncover the secret of the peculiar book before it's too late, or will his demise become yet another Valtor legend?

Points system is being built to allow users the ability to enter in answers to a clue and get immediately rewarded

The points system works on:

• Correct Answers
• Number of winners
• Automatically closes once "set amount" of winning slots are filled

We will update this software to later automatically calculate the user status and calculate how many points are converted to coin and credited to users wallet.

Example:
Free members get 10% of points converted to coin
Paid Members get 3 coins for every point

ANN was edited to make it simpler to understand
We hope this has not caused any inconvenience

We are not asking for anything
We are offering all 100% of the premine (70%) as rewards for solving clues during the gameplay
We also offer mining for the remainder (30%) for those who want the coin and do not want to participate in the game.
