 		[update] I HAVE A PARCEL!
Black Jiffy bag posted in SW London. Inside is a plastic folder with a load of stuff in.

a letter from sente which says about representives on earth called Mind Candy. This must be the MC. Letter confirms 100k reward for whoever finds the cube. Also confirms that the cards will be on sale

A badge with 333 written on it.

Toursit information flyer. Has a hour by hour account of how to spend time in Perplex City and see everything. Also has a subway guide on the back. Has the mention of www.perplexcitysentinel.com/tourguide

Postcards shown on the firebox advert are also included. on one side they seem to make a giant perplex city map. Will scan all sides of them all in asap. one has hieroglyphics on one side which i'll also translate asap.

also 4 stickers.

Postcards are numbered:
#219 - hieroglyphs and a part of a map
#170 - flags and part of a map
#074 - entry from a dictionary and part of map
#027 - "Bar None" working out violets phone number and a puzzle with a text sente
#138 - "geek antiques" old computers and part of map
# 041 - wordsearch and sente puzzle again

Postcards also have in the corner "solve the four cards in the black pixel set and win X amount of perplex points" "solve this card and win X amount of perplex points"

 		Hooray!

Having now become obsessed with the layout of the city, I can't wait to see the subway map!

You are a lucky dog Salkunh!

 		I received my parcel today.

Have decided that I do not have time to play along and it is unfair to keep it from someone who could really use it.

Any offers?

 		Me too. It would appear that all the cards theyve sent out are the same ones.

 		I'll give it a week and then will pop back, that gives time for royal mail to deliver any stragglers!
