While quite popular from 2000 to mid-2005 (the actual dates are arguable), such games have become less common. While the early games were hosted by dedicated persons, later on, anyone was able to host. As a result, games like this immediately dropped in popularity. Nowadays, these games have phased out and are not as popular. FORMAT These online versions of reality TV shows work in the same format as their source show would, with minor adaptations to suffice for the lack of physical presence in the game. Seeing as most Reality TV shows involve some sort of challenge or physical competition, ORGs usually have puzzles or tasks that can be completed online and do not require one person or team to finish before someone else, but rather finish with a higher scoring than someone else. Examples of such a competition include online versions of an arcade game and trivia-based knowledge games. Players in the game usually use some form of instant messaging to maintain contact during the game, making alliances and manipulating relationships, parallel to the methods used in Reality TV Shows. In some instances, ORGs are held privately on websites where only the players have access, so that written episodes can be formulated afterwards, making the experience of the game even more parallell to the actual shows.
