Loli! Awesome finds! It sounds like those card roles really have potential, would you be up for helping me interpret a bit of raw data to figure out if that's correct? I have a bit of a summary of what each card has said so far as well as post times (which likely are not TOO relevant) but I need someone else to help me so I know I'm not just getting delusional.

If the cards have been shuffled like we were told, sounds like the Ace of Spades is coming...

I emailed a rare and antique card dealer in the UK asking if he knew what deck of cards the image on 2 of diamonds ms page was from. The one with the words at the bottom of the card.

This is his response:

It's from a pack known as 'The horrid popish plot' which was published in 1679 by Robert Walton in London. The cards are printed from copper plate engravings. These early engraved packs are now very rare.

may be another irrelevant tangent, but throwing it out there anyway.

Loli, awesome discovery! :3

Metabolic, awesome discovery, as well. I have a friend here that says that something from 1679 with that title would be associated with the Church of England during the English civil war...or slightly afterwards...like you said, Metabolic, it might be a tangent, but it doesn't hurt to know.

I also have a theory about A.L.I.C.(E.)...could each respective thing (art, chaos, etc.) be synonymous with the Tarot?

Like, cups = love, and on and on...

Hmm.. the english civil war was quite a while before 1679 i think.
Other events happened before it, such as the dutch invasion of England.

the things I learnt in history today. ;D

New e-mail from 2C

Quote:
Pink,

Please let the others know that they can contact me here. In fact, this
email address is preferable to MySpace, as it is easier to access, and
less open to Korporation tampering.

People also need to know that there is not a lot being put out there right
now that is of much help. Some of it is, but most of it is just a
precursor to what will come on 11/11 and in the days after. The point of
this period is to get the word out about what is about to happen, so that
there will be as many people as possible together to help each other when
the rabbit hole opens.

Much Respect.

2C


So, feel free to e-mail him at the e-mail address twoofclubsSPLATsilverladder.com.

Are we maybe puzzling too much about things, when we should just be focused solely on finding more people?

Emails from 2h and 2c

From the Two of Clubs

Quote:
M (or Jane, if you prefer),

I will call you sometime soon, perhaps tonight. Did you mean you want
me
to tell you what happened to Silverladder on the message, or in email?
And by "what happened," do you mean with The Korp or something else?

Much Respect,
2C

the truth is that a lot of people are worrying about things that don't

matter right now. the truth is that a lot of people are trying to
answer
questions that haven't even been asked yet. the truth is that now is
just
preparation for the opening of the rabbit hole. what comes on the 11th
and after the 11th is what really matters. people are too worried
about
details that aren't important. what is important? unifying. bringing
others in who can help.

organize. centralize. get your pens and pencils ready, because when
the
rabbit hole opens, *then* you can worry about details.

It's funny, it looks like they know my real name even though I've stubbornly refused to give it out. They are very clever.

Yes, I got a few emails today as well. I will post them all, but one said to not worry so much and bring people in.

we're not entirely sure who they are. they seem like an organized crime

cult-like thing at the same time. why did they do this? its apparent
that they're all about power and dominating whoever they can. they're
against the positivity that we're trying to share. it threatens their
control.

athena is fine. she is maintaining (most of) her

Where should we be focusing our attention?

i can tell you *exactly* where to be focusing your
attention right now:
recruiting. the more people you have working together
on this once the
rabbit hole opens, the more you will succeed and the
more that all of you
will get out of it individually. where you shouldn't be
focusing your
attention right now? worrying. trying to figure out
every little detail.
what's being thrown out there right now is an effort
to make sure
everyone is on the train before it leaves the station.
what's out there
now is not necessarily crucial to the whole plain or
the main message.
you need to know that. others need to know that too.
the aces respect
and appreciate everyone's effort to solve, but what
needs to happen now is
an expansion. solving will come down the road.

So from what we've gathered so far is that we need to be focusing on getting more people into the fold. Should we recruit them to myspace? Have them email clubs? email transmission? How will they know that we are gathering a bunch of people?

And are we being tested to see if we will be going down the right path once the rabbit hole opens? That's very witty of them Twisted Evil

Just got around to checking out that website.
Man oh man, THAT site must have taken some serious work to put together. I am impressed, and can't wait for the rabbithole to open!

Things are normal for now, but it's wise to keep an eye out for The

What worries me more than The Korp is the potential of troublemakers
coming from within. Spies. Wolves in sheep's clothing. Or even
wolves
in wolves' clothing, for that matter.

Much Respect.

then?
