If it's the first, then to what extent should we get the people involved? I see the following tiers:
Just getting them on to the "Wicked witch is a good candidate" thing.
That, and linking them to her blog.
That, and linking them here.
That, and linking them to the ARG page.
Of course, starting from tier 2, the people can get to tier 4 by themselves, if they dig well enough. That means the main question is whether or not to link the people to the witch's blog.
If it's the second, we need to understand how to fake it. In the very least, we should know the witch's information sources.
Yes, what we need first and foremost is posters: the kind of campaign stuff we see coming out from other presidential candidates. but with links to Watch the Footage dot com and her blog. That means we need them to be designed and then gotten out there via whatever means is best suited. Namely, methods which will draw peoples attention without drawing the wrong KIND of attention from people we really don't want heckling us.

This is as good point. On that note, how exactly does one go about submitting articles to Cracked? Would we need contacts with their writers, or something? I'm not sure how that site actually works.

Not only can I contact the celebrities, but I can draw them to our side. I once sold ice to a couple of eskimos. They were incredibly grateful. Now as for celebrities, I happen to have Chuck Norris and John Wayne on my speed dial. They'd be sure to get us some supporters. If you would like I could call them up right now. If they say yes, there is nothing we can't do.
Yeah that's a persona alright.
I guess that makes your character the Muscle of this whole operation, as well as one of the brains. I like it.though. We're working with personalities she can understand and giving off the impression we can actually get stuff done. We can FAKE celebrities, no bother.
I'd like to be able to get back to the witch asap with our follow up ideas. Shall we inform her of our desires to contact these websites, and ask her about slogans?
And could one of us start up a topic thread concerning getting a designer involved...
), I have no idea how to make something viral. And also, I'm afraid to attract a large audience here, as we may be overwhelmed by muggles. And god forbid us to resort to 4chan or something. They can actually help us make her viral (just how many memes originated from 4chan, anyway?), but at the cost of attracting Anonymous to the ARG. You know it can't be good.
