Since the directions for sending the picture have been posted anyone can send in a picture and basically get "credit" for solving them. I'm not sure why I felt compelled to point that out.

I don't know why you pointed it out either.

It's not about getting credit, it's about being a TEAM.

Great work guys.

Not quite what I meant. That's why I put the word credit in "'s. I'm just going to let it go because I'm not sure what to say to make my point.

Good work though.

TV, if Bowty didn't want more than one person to solve it, he shouldn't have told someone how to solve his riddles when in this day and age, everyone tells everybody everything.
Anyway, he said he wanted participants. And we're participating.

I am wondering if this isn't intertwined with the legacy game (whatisthisgame) by any chance, as hawkjones is a top friend on the whoismrwillson myspace page from the game and many of the same characters on his page.

Palm, I think he is a player. It seems he is playing Join My Legacy, and received messages from the Gate Reaction. He's probably OOG.

Bowty wrote back, saying pretty much the same thing as he said to Sylvia--
Quote:

Dear Alice,

I would like to congratulate you on passing my test! It seems you worked together with many others in obtaining one singular goal. You have all exceeded my expectations.

Remember that you are now one of my disciples. As you have shown me your dedication in this act of devotion, I believe that you truly are one of my own. There will be more tasks to come, as any disciple will acquire.

Through me you can become enlightened more than ever before possible.

Please accept my gift:
http://thegatereaction.com/iamyourdisciple/0215080911/

I will contact you again soon.

Sincerely,
Bowty.


And in that URL is my 'official profile', along with a note--
Quote:
>TO MY GROUP MEMBER ALICE
>A COPPER MEDAL CAN SUFFICE
>I ADMIRE YOUR POETIC FORM
>I WELCOME YOU


Any of the rest of you get emails like these?
I hope it's not intertwined with 'whatisthisgame', because I have never played that and don't want to read through 10 pages of post >_<

Quote:
P.S. Caty, I apologize for my formatting mistake!
"Dear Caty," was intended!

To make up for this mistake, I will grant you one freebie.
Use it wisely.

Sincerely,
Bowty.


hmmm... one freebie? Wonder what that is and when it will come in handy?

I also got the second email that Sylvia got. I am pretty sure it is the same message, but I will check later. I wonder why some people have comrades and others have none?

Hmm, that's a good question. Did you mention Sylvia in your e-mail?

Also, I wonder what 'Figure Present' means, next to Analysis. Some have it and some don't.

I did mention her in my email. I said she helped me to solve the puzzles. I think your right about him getting it from there. For the figure present thing, I believe it is because we have a picture with a person in it, instead of a random object.

I sent mine today (and yes, I took the photo)

EDITED: Took off my photo because I am over my alloted space for attachments. If you want to see the photo, then go to the Wiki:
