New tweet from the magister:

4 coloured circles - Blue, Red, Yellow and Green

Could be tarot meanings....

Blue: Look to the sky for the meanings of Blue - open spaces, freedom, imagination, expansiveness, inspiration, and sensitivity.

Red: Think fire and blood - Red rushes to us with messages of passion, primal urges, action, pleasure, vibrance, radiance, and love.

Yellow: Worshipped in the form of the sun - Yellow is all about radiating creativity, protection, intellect, positivity and clarity.

Green: The fresh start of spring brings oceans of Green and with it comes attributes of youth, sentimentality, nature, adventure, growth and health.

Yeah, I got the 'try again' reply too.

If it has something to do with the quote that appears after sending the application, then I'm stumped. I don't even understand what that means Laughing Language barrier Rolling Eyes


It's a Marcus Aurelius quote
Quote:
"Be like a rocky promontory against which the restless surf continually pounds; it stands fast while the churning sea is lulled to sleep at its feet. I hear you say, "How unlucky that this should happen to me!" Not at all! Say instead, "How lucky that I am not broken by what has happened and am not afraid of what is about to happen. The same blow might have struck anyone, but not many would have absorbed it without capitulation or complaint." (IV. 49, trans. Hicks)

This site might be useful on the colour tweet:

http://tarotofcolor.com/color-system-chart/

Have tried the initials of the suits, the numbers of the card and tried altering the numbers into letters (bpad) nowt so far.

I think it's a hint to use Google to get past the Application:

But I love your analysis, Russell!

So I'm not sure if I did it right but after getting a bunch of "try agains" I finally got a response that says -

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Seek and you shall find. Sit quietly with your mind.


Now, is that a hint to what I'm actually supposed to write/an indication that I'm on the right path or does that mean my application is accepted? I'm assuming it's a hint but I'm not certain Dunno has anyone gotten anything else back?

my second try yielded this response:

Quote:
You are getting warmer, but I'm looking for something specific. You'll know it when you find it.


"Seek and you shall find" makes me think of the google clue and "Sit quietly with your mind" makes me think of Meditations- the name of the book that quote is in. I am thinking you're on the right path and would be told affirmatively when acceptance is met, since that info was included in my last submission and it received the above reply. I could be wrong though, I usually am. Waiting on a reply to my third attempt, which was made after Googling 'Meditations'. I am concerned though, because the harder you look, the more leaves there are to see.

You are both so very close and I can't not give another nudge as this is ultimately cooperative Smile

Think to previous puzzles.

Heyas! Had been discussing war/Tolstoy with Magister. This was my final reply from him when I realized the "something specific" answer was staring me in my face. HTH <3

The Magister wrote:
Nice catch. Your patience means everything.

Those who seek meditation(s) will find the answer they're looking for.

Now I have to go back to my library.

Thanks R, and we both know how frustrating it can be to be told you are close yet just not see it. This is more Observation than Meta: Was fortunate to play this PM's first ARG and many since so I'm 100% certain they'll not leave any player stranded who's looking for the answer. G'Luck.

I finally got it. Painful that I didn't realize - I assumed we were supposed to do something else entirely. Laughing

"When someone shows you who they are believe them; the first time."~ Maya Angelou

Those words usually steer me right. In the first two lines on The Pergamum Project Home Page the Magister (shows) tells us who he is. Y'all should just believe him.

And Congrats, Christmas.
