[UPDATE] Scarlett's Blog (April 19)
Quote:
So, I've received a huge pile of emails (can you have a pile of emails? A flurry, maybe? ) asking about keys. This is another one of those questions that's tough to answer... to find parallels that'll make sense to you. I'm talking to a couple of people at the Academy, Von and my sister's friend Kurt, and they're going to come up with some useful analogies for me. Watch this space!
Meanwhile... Another ambigram has arrived! This one's just for me and my blog . A guy called Bruce has sent it over and I love it. Thank you!
Plus more ambigrams...anyone else having Angels and Demons deja vu?

Why is the middle bit red? Maybe it contains another word, or maybe I'm completely paranoid (I even DREAMT about this puzzle last night, which was frankly worrying). The only other thing I can see there though is "the Kite", which doesn't seem too illuminating.
Feel free to write me off as insane though; I pretty much have.

I think its just that the word scarlett is in scarlett... the whole ambigram says the scarlett kite, thus where the and kite come from

I don't follow your logic here... just because Scarlett got another ambigram from someone called Bruce doesn't mean that the first one wasn't sent to her by Brett. But yes, it does prove he is out of game, there's no reason to think that everyone who sends something to Scarlett is in game.

Actually, more delay-dodge. I'm betting the Friday event will give us info about keys in some way so as to make anything Scarlett would tell us moot.

No, my reasoning was that it confused us because in one of Brett's emails he said he didn't know of Scarlett's blog, in which case how did he send it to her? But Scarlett clears that up here by admitting that the other one wasn't just for her and her blog?

so when do we meet aiko, anna, caine, garnet, and tippy?
Are they other Academy research students/Sente's coterie? Does Violet have a role in all this?

Yup, you're right. I'm an eejit. I guess all we can do, unless someone has an insight into the Futures, is sit tight and hope we don't miss whatever's going to happen on Friday.

I think by "just for me and my blog" she is referring to the fact that it's an ambigram of her blog's title, whereas the last one was just the name of the city in which she lives (so less personal). As for Brett not sending the first one directly to Scarlett, my best reasoning in game would be that Sente or the Academy staff gave it to her after recieving it through one of the other email addresses.

Yeah, something along those lines I'm sure, tbh my theory is that he's a friend of the PMs who was asked to make one / made one because he knew about the game, and the PMs put it on the blog.
But that's just my 2 cents / 1.1 pence...

That's a possible out of game reason, that or he sent it to one of the other accounts and the PMs thought it was so good that they had to put it somewhere. But there should be an in game reason too.
