No, only found out when it launched. Spent most of today talking to folks and piecing together information. :(

I think something like about:mrrobot would have been more reasonable (at first glance) The mistake (I think) was mostly that people who could think through how it would be perceived weren't in the loop early on.

One thing I can't sort out is why a normal website with some user agent sniffing wouldn't have been just as good an experience and marketing campaign from the perspective of the vast majority of users? Why was this mechanism chosen in the first place?

For ARG players, the more a game is able to manifest in the real world, the better. By using an add-on, the experience could manifest outside of the game's domains, furthering immersion. As a former ARG player, this type of thing would be truly fantastic, so long as it's opt-in.

The website could have helped the user install the add-on :) I've also played ARG games and get it.
-
Apparently that's the plan going forward, if I'm reading this email right.

Great! I hope the leadership of MoCo thinks hard about what processes could have helped avoid this. The answer is not "we'll think harder next time." It's "we'll involve more people next time" :)
