My Degree results came out on Friday (13th) in a spooky coincidence. As some of you will know, the number 13 featured heavily in the Project Ophiuchus ARG that I ran as my dissertation project. At the start, I slipped the number in wherever I could intentionally but towards the end of the game it kept popping up everywhere; my dissertation hand in date and the results date were two of the more coincidental occurings.
I’m not really supestitious, and that’s probably a good thing, since the number 13 has been quite the opposite to unlucky for me. I guess the months of hard work might’ve slightly lead to the obsession of the number, and more importantly the hard work seems to have paid off - I got a First Class Honours!
Thanks go to everybody involved with my dissertation. It wouldn’t have been possible without both the volume and participation of the players.
Expect to see some more ARGs soon! Oh and watch out for the number 13. It might be an important part of the seque!
