For those of you that don't know, Project EVA is an ARG (Alternate Reality Game) played out in SL as well as IRL. It's fairly immersive and fun so far. We are at a place in the game where we need a meetup with all current and interested EVA Researchers. We have made substantial progress in the past 24 hours and there are some tests at the EVA Nodes that need to be run with 5 or 6 persons present.

To catch up with what's been going on, you can read my posts at:
http://blackmylar.com/serendipity/index.php?/categories/12-Project-EVA
Or go to the Flickr set at http://www.flickr.com/photos/blackmylar/sets/

If possible we can meet up as soon as Tuesday, or Wednesday. We should plan this when the most persons possible can be ISL. I'll document the proceedings as best as I can and throw them up on the web for those absent to get caught up.
It's starting to get exciting folks, and they'res plenty of room for more players.

Sorry for being dumb.

Read every 3rd letter on the webpage, not including every 5th word, and on Sunday only read words with lengths that are a multiple of two. On the 12th and 21st reverse all the letters, and read every 8th word from right to left.... scour the web... twist a lime... and shake!!!

Ok so maybe that's a bad ARG joke. I'm sure the Eva guys could help you out better, but you can start with the Wiki entry for Alternative Reality Game

Oh yea, it's an ARG. It's also the first I've ever played, so I can't tell you how particularly good or bad it is in relation to some of the others out there, but I'm pretty entertained by it.:)

There will be some of the team members in SL tomorrow night. Add me as a friend, or join the Project EVA group and we'll tp you to wherever we are. You'll probably start off behind, but that's ok. More brains working on solving the puzzles is pretty good. It will be fun.

I've been getting into this "game" a lot lately, the two main references I've been using are :

Leon's blog of course: :D

And

Immersion Unlimited Forums

I've started to post some of my finds, research into the project and "her" on Immersion Unlimited. The ability to hide/collapse spoilers makes it good for this sort of thing, where some people will want to surprise themselves with certain steps.
