July

  • July 26, 2007 - At the San Diego Comic-Con, "Jokerized" $1 bills are found that lead to Whysoserious.com, a page advertising jobs as Joker henchmen. The page includes coordinates to a location near the convention and a countdown clock set to go off the next day.
  • July 27, 2007 - Hundreds gather at the time and place listed on Whysoserious. At 10 am, a phone number is written in the sky, launching the game. Collaborating with friends online, the assembled crowd (now wearing Joker face paint) is sent on a scavenger hunt throughout the city. After solving all the clues, a fan was selected to be abducted and killed in place of the Joker. The participants at San Diego were given clown masks as a reward, while online players were rewarded with the teaser trailer for The Dark Knight.
  • July 30, 2007 - Whysoserious is shut down and replaced with Rent-a-clown.com, a clown rental company whose "employees" are the fans from WSS. The page contains the message "made you look" in its source code.

October

  • October 17, 2007 - Whysoserious is reactivated, with a Halloween theme - a single pumpkin lit by a candle, with the mouth carved in the shape of a bat.
  • October 31, 2007 - After watching the pumpkin rot and the candle burn out over the course of a few weeks, at the stroke of midnight Whysoserious updates with a workbench linked with 49 locations.
  • November 1, 2007 - The community uploaded images of 49 different letters onto the Whysoserious website, spelling out the message "the only sensible way to live in this world is without rules". Clicking on the solution played a clip of the Joker saying "tonight you're going to break your one rule", followed by a new image of the Joker. Clicking on the image led to a new website, RorysDeathKiss.com, challenging participants to take photographs in clown make-up by major national landmarks in groups.

November

  • November 18, 2007 - Midnight, the end of the deadline for photo submissions, Rorysdeathkiss.com was updated with a new note indicating that all who had submitted a photo would receive something in the mail shortly after Thanksgiving.
