[MAIL] Birthday Card This morning I recieved a birthday card in the post. Now, considering the fact that it's not my birthday till July, I found this suspicious - until I noticed that it was postmarked Bristol, and had a picture of a cow on the front.
On the back of the envelope, they've written "We love you Jonathan". The inside of the card is blank, apart from one code in the corner... "E2".
I'm attaching pictures. I'll be taking it with me to the event, seeing as it's Eva's birthday, not mine - but not sure what to do with the clue at the moment. I have a feeling it ties in with the cow plushie that Thunderwolf got with the code Wak8 inside it.

Did you notice it is an inverse cow. (black with white spots - not white with black spots.)
Like our inverse questions/answers from the SRI exam.
Another note, the company has an email address (salesSPLAT maxandsid.co.uk) Although, I don't see the point in using it for anything because they are very obviously Out Of Game.
One last thing; do you think the E2 has anything to do with the letters and numbers we got on the envelopes from Eva sending the cat posters?

The cat posters were solved a bit ago as a Bacon Cipher.
The letters and the like from the Cow and Birthday card are most likely going to be somethng similar.

Yep, agreed - these new numbers will be seperate from those Eva posted out - however if its the same sort of code - wak8 suggests there are minimum 8 sections to get - so are we still waiting on 6 more items to be sent to people in the post?
Which would be surprising, given how long ago the plushie cow was recieved...
This is probably me being stupid - however - i thought Pat+Dave were seperate from the Meigeist situation...and these items are clearly associated with welovebeef - so therefore if thats the case, where did Pat+Dave get your address' from?
As far as im aware the only places you are likley to have given your addy are to SRI and enter-geist.com - Therefore to have access to this Pat+Dave must be involved in the whole meigeist thing..which suggests we cant trust them...they must be involved in whats happening to Eva...so anyone going tomorrow should be carefull!!!!
And i thought they seemed suchdelightful chaps.

Methinks it was infact Gronsfeld. Keir's site was the one with the Bacon.

Sorry to deflate your brainstorming bubble amigo, but imo I think you may be getting IG and meta mixed up. True, we have never explicitly given postal addresses to Pat & Dave. But sign-up and contact detail collection seemed to be kinda the point of having the meta sign-up page. (After all it wouldn't be particularly fun having to repeatedly give all of your contact details to every single character in the game ! ) -So I really shouldn't read too much into it.
ps. Looking forward to tomorrow!
EDIT: Soz for going off-topic!

I got one too, mine has "S4" written in it as well as "we (heart) you" on the envelope. Also the stamp is at an odd angle and has been scribbled on (that could have been the post office though because the frank does not go over the stamp.

I received the same card (with rocking Beatles stamp). On the inside it says, "Go Girl X" and the letter/number combo, "Wb7"
