Key
Type
- Official - Affiliated with source material, game studio or related organisation.
- Independent - Not affiliated with any source material or a specific organisation. Often an entirely original story.
- Community - As 'Independent', but created by one or more GD community members/for the community. Often, trailhead and clues appear primarily on community resources.
- Investigation - No ARG or puzzle has been confirmed. In the majority of cases, clues have been discovered. This may be used temporarily before such a time that confirmation has been made, or may be a permanent status. Sometimes investigations will reveal a simple marketing gimmick or similar.
Status
- Active - Known to be ongoing. Clues are still appearing, or attempts to resolve existing ones are still underway.
- Gone Cold - Attempts to advance have become fruitless and no progress is being made. Clues have potentially stopped appearing. May return to 'Active' if a new lead is uncovered or a clue has been solved. This may also be used in cases where the puppetmaster has seemingly put the project 'on hold'.
- Unknown - The community has disengaged with this investigation and its status is currently not known.
- Closed - The investigation has completed to its logical conclusion (it has been solved), the puppetmaster is confirmed to have permanently ceased progress or a fixed time limit has been exceeded (as with an ARG running alongside a sale, etc.).
Started
The date that the ARG or puzzle is known to have begun or the trailhead first appeared.
Discovered
The date that the investigation began.
Concluded
The date that the investigation was closed or the trail went cold (if known).
