Not much response so far to appleTRON's exciting find??

Electric splash? A search doesn't really produce anything useful and it doesn't appear to be an anagram of any kind but then again why would they encode a message already hidden?

BB? Maybe another player in the Cube theft?

21 to 24? Gatehouse numbers?

4? Gatehouse number?

C? My money is still on Sarah Covington (and all that talk of "shoes" still bugs me)
V? We know this one is " a true believer" and pretty nasty
K? The Advisor
Q? Bernardo Holyoake

Just thinking out loud��.electric splash��electric splash�.

Maybe it'll be the name of an upcomming card

For what it's worth--either my copies of this card do not have the UV ink or the incandescent "blacklight" replacement bulbs for standard screw-in light sockets suck. I'm betting on the latter and that I need to find a fluorescent-tube style blacklight.

I sort of assumed that 'electric splash' perhaps referred to how they conducted the theft, ie, using some low-level, highly-specific EMP device or Marx generator-esque machine to disrupt communication/security.

Or maybe it's just the new dance craze and the message merely lists the steps Wink

Though the card does seem to indicate that there are 5 players, not four. Madame Bianca? Brother..something or other? (Though, naturally, BB could stand for a nickname or other secret identity.)

This may be nothing but I noticed there is writing around the seal at the top of the letter. Does anybody have a magnifying glass to read what it says?

The writing around the logo is just part of the logo, with the names of the founders of the academy (or something along those lines anyway - search through the old forum posts)
