and I still feel that what they did was not use the Mirdek enciphering at all. They used the setup table, which defines the alphabetic meanings for each card, but never proceeded thru the steps to encode a message. Plus the fact that they weren't even using the black/red assignments as defined by Mirdek, I cannot see how any of this applied to the clues as given. "Do the mirdek" to me means to build a randomized card deck and then count offsets into the deck. I mostly feel let down by not invoking the full elegance of a Solitaire cipher, although I do understand that it would have been over the reach of most of their target audience. Perhaps for the next ARG?

New press release:

Quote:

LEADERSHIP TURN-OVER AT CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATION
Misappropriation of Funds Cited as Reason for Organization's Make-Over

Holly Macon, a representative of the Citizens of Virtue (C.O.V.), a Christian organization, announced today that the organization would be undergoing a reorganization of assets. She listed some reasons for this including the recently vacated Board of Directors' seats, the revelation of inappropriate spending by outgoing board members and the disappearance of the organization's leader, Pastor Bryson Grace.

"It's like biting into a ripe, red apple," said Holly Macon at an impromptu press conference held at the Citizens of Virtue international headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri, "and finding a squirming, slimy worm inside—bitten in half. To those of us left holding the bag, it's now crystal clear that the previous board members did not have the best interests of their good Christian members at heart. You can't imagine our shock and horror."

"I'm just one of the members who believed in Pastor Grace," said Macon. "I'm nobody and I'm devastated. But when Bryson disappeared, it was a big wake-up call. Its God's Will that we pick up the broken pieces of this church, rediscover its purpose, and rebuild it in God's Name for His people. I promise that we will salvage whatever we can from this mess. I can't believe we were so blind for so long. My personal thanks go out to all those who worked so hard to expose the worm in the apple."

Bryson Grace, missing President of the Citizens of Virtue (C.O.V.), did not report to work one morning and efforts to contact him have failed. "If anyone has seen Pastor Grace or heard from him in recent days the police would very much appreciate any information on his whereabouts," said Holly Macon. "We're very concerned."
