I think (correct me if I'm wrong) he's suggesting the answer is:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Good name
and his examples show how that fits the statements. I don't see how this fits with the first line though, so it's at least as dubious and probably more dubious than

Right
Some day the leader board will be up and we'll have a way to test our solves

Oh, I agree. I was just acknowledging that not everyone feels it fits with Men rage if I be lost by theft .

to lose the right to something or if someone stole your right seems a very good reason to rage

There's something weird about this card, the ink doesn't reflect in the same way to all the others...
It looks the same to me. Compared it to a few other cards and didn't notice any difference. I'm gonna go stick all my cards under a UV light tomorrow so maybe that'll show something up but for now I just don't see what you mean.
EDIT: Nothing shows up when this card is put under UV or when it's frozen. More on possible ways to hide data here .

Strange as it may seem I've been figuring out what a turkey has to do with any of it.
Some of the pictures make sense but that bird or whatever on the top left just seems out of place to me. Not saying that there is a deeper meaning to it all. Just a comment really.

interesting
ok so what we got --clockwise from top - two statues one of which carries the scales of justice -- cain and able(birthright theft) - a crest of some sort -- another crest - set of scales at the bottom - something i cant make out in bottom left - and then up to bird that looks like a turkey
hmmmm -- if someone has the card they might let me know the bits i cant make out
but im stll sure the solution is
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
right

i think we can almost be sure that it is
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
right
but the second line seems a bit dodgy in relation to that answer.
Saying this, the top, third and bottom line seem to compare well with the answer.

Re: [Puzzle] #089 -Yellow- Forever Foe how about
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
innocence?
Forever foe to what is wrong,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
innocence is always good
Men rage it I be lost by theft;
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
when someone is robbed of their innocence through crime, people get pissed
I am what justice works to bring,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
justice works to restore innocence
All have you have when nothings left.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
when all of your culture and thoughts are gone, you are merely innocent
I know that it isn't the solution, but it fits them all.

It just has to be. Either that or the answer must be "Mornington Crescent".

Just going back a couple of pages - don´t know if everyone has this card now, but someone posted that the figure on it was the 8 of spades, when in fact it is the 8 of clubs. Probably not important as we don't know what the cards signify but just putting the record straight.

Just a note to anyone who has a signed copy of this card from Firebox and still hasn't submitted the pencilled number/letter to contribute to the code - could you please post the digit at the top of the card and your position/100 to this thread so that we can try to solve the sudoku puzzle that we think it forms. Also, please check that your digit is on the wiki page - even if you did post it it may have been missed.
We need as many digits as we can get to eliminate the many possible solutions we are faced with at the moment and get one unique solution. If you don't know what digit I'm talking about there's some photos in that thread.

Only just got this card today (hey, I'm a newbie...) but I've noticed that the spaces before and after the 'I' on line 2 are wider than the rest of the text. I know Seej has already tried uv and that didn't show anything, but it seems odd. The 'I' itself looks like it could be part of the word 'right' (as in, the right-hand part of the letter g and the left-hand side of the h, although these wouldn't quite match the others in the text). This would make the line read "Men rage if right be lost by theft", which seems to fit, although the word would be slightly higher than the rest of the line.
Anyone else think the r in rage looks slightly suspicious too?
Lordy, one day in and I'm getting paranoid...
