 		And I'm not sure if mine is a letter or a piece of The Duodecad (I mentioned letter as it seemed to be a standard letter-sized envelope from the photo I've seen). I won't be able to confirm either way for another five hours or so unfortunately.

 		Got a letter containing what I think I can safely assume is my piece of the Duodecad. There's nothing in/on the envelope other than the address, and doesn't seem to be anything on the back of the letter either. I haven't had a chance to look into the code yet - wanted to show you all as soon as possible - and I'm pretty sure we'll need all the pieces to solve this, but I'll look into it now anyway.
First time I've received anything physical from an arg, I'm loving this Very Happy

 		Ooh, exciting times. I think I've got something from your piece, wastedtime.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Read the letters in a clockwise direction, starting at the top left to spell out: 'Evil rises on a sequence'

 		I just came back to post exactly that Billy, can't wait to see what everyone else has been sent to see how this fits in with the other messages - seems like it's going to be part of a bigger message, like the story from mailing numbers.

 		I did have an immediate thought when taking your piece at face value (details below) but having thought it through a little more I think it's probably not relevant.

I'm sure you're right about all the pieces fitting or working together in some way so I'll try and stop getting over-excited and wait until we see what else we have to play with.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Seeing the word 'sequence' made me think immediately of Fibonacci. I wondered if maybe it's saying the date on which the evil will rise can be found within the Fibonacci sequence: 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, etc.

However, the only obvious date to take from that sequence would be 5/8/13 (either 5th August 2013 or 8th May 2013 depending on the way you choose to read the date), which is obviously in the past. So unless we're looking way into the future (8/13/21) I'm probably way off the mark.

 		This is very exciting. Just out of curiosity, will we be keeping an official wiki as well? Or someplace (besides the forum) to exist as a repository of all pieces of information gathered? I know of this one so far: http://masteroftwelve.wikia.com/wiki/Master_of_Twelve_Wiki

Also, I am curious to know, out of the individuals selected with cards, where is everybody from? That is, are a majority of us from the UK or the US or elsewhere?

Yeah, your first time getting a real world prop is pretty exciting! How cool for you!

So only some of us will be getting pieces? I have a hunch that it'll prolly be the people who responded soonest to his request for info earlier... it makes sense because they would get it fastest and thus the game could move faster.

Which means it is less likely I will get one. Of course thats just a theory...

The indication is that 7 pieces have been sent out this time. The Servant has indicated that he is hoping to send something to everybody but that it might take longer for some than others, from which I take it people who didn't get anything this time are more likely to receive something in the next 'round'.

 		Wow, this is getting better and better! I just want to go home and open mine now.

There's an easy to read version of the map here (although I can't check it closely now to see if there have been any changes made to 'our' version):

 		Congrats on the wonderful swag!

A guess so far: With

sequence
spiral
L I N E S
geometry

Billy Brown may be headed down the right path...
