[EMAIL] Response from smallfavors I send in two separate e-mails today, detailing the two favors I did. I've received a reply to both the first (cleaning a grave) and the second (Anagraming a curse). Here was the identical response from each:
Quote:
Subject: Thanks for doing me a small favor!
The living forget, but the dead remember. I will remember what you've done for me.
You'll be getting a little something from me, a mark of my appreciation for everyone to see.
Thanks again. It means a lot to me.
Lucky

For the anagram of a curse, did you use every single letter of the name to make the curse? Just asking because I leave in 20 minutes and want to make sure I can do this right.

that is an excellent question I wasn't sure it would be accepted - but it was vaguely insulting sounding and just about the only complete anagram I could come up with.

I would like to confirm that I got the same email for doing the "Victor's Blessing" favor as well.
I also do not yet have the mark.
I now have the mark, and am second only to you Thunderclap.

Here you can see the photos from the trip FourDSwissCheese and I took to Midlothian today, to the Bachelor's Grove location. I created two anagrams and decorated a grave, and got them all accepted a short while ago. Three small favors, woot woot.
We also completed the Bachelor's Grove hand, by walking the stones in the order Lucky prescribed. We discussed our path, and correlated it to a diagram we found of the cemetery, and guessed that we had just walked in the shape of a number 4 - a 4 drawn with a triangular closed top, anyhow.
I just received this in my Inbox:

You'll both be getting a little something from me to

you.
Keep up the good work-

Confirmation:
The person favors are not first come, first serve. I just recieved an email stating that I completed the kinkcoover task, confirming that more than 1 person can do the same favor as another (Thunderclap already did this favor yesterday).

Got confirmation for robertbrown, victorsimkoaldridge, and pacocisneros (clean, bless, and B&E) and am now fighting for my curse. Bitter larnel didn't go over well ... I'm hoping that Rat Rebel Lint will be better received.

Rebel Rat Lint scans a bit better, as the Rebel describes the Rat.
Ewwww, rebellious lint of the rodent! Whatta curse!

Did the trick ... though it was described as "mostly an A for effort"

Maybe a way to get the mark of the Joker even if you didn't pre-order? Or something new?
Fellowship of the Dead now has names, and it is showing on your profile now folks.

Anyone else not get a reply at all? I sent in my favor Sunday and haven't even gotten the first email back yet.

I got a response from the stuff I sent Sunday afternoon, but not from the pacocisneros task which I sent in later. Lucky's probably busy doing... er, dead stuff.
ETA: It occurs to me that I didn't include the responses I got. I had a couple of personalized things on top of the standard reply:
Quote:
Thanks again. It means a lot to me. And you're right, stargazers lilies smell like heaven.
