well, if we're supposed to "BEGIN IN THIS ORDER", as our little hint says, then we need to find our first and fourth. They have to be members of the forum (well, I assume so. they wouldn't use forum PMs if they couldn't contact all 4 of us in the same way), and i would assume they would be people involved with the game. munki schwinn, and paperbound have already confirmed they have no emails, E.Y.E. Spy has posted here with nothing about an email, so that doesn't leave a lot.. Wulf, syn, burrito?

So.. Now what. Are we the only two? There has to be more..

If someone would be so kind, I could really use a compilation of which sites are still being updated in game and which are defunct, with links. Very Happy

So we have the 3 now what? It almost seams like they are giving directions. Classical 60 cubits (in), Syn take the perimeter, Tempest in 150 Cubits...
Maybe directions on how to guide Port around Brightman, when we are trying to liberate the Oracle?

I cant find any relation with the emails and Watership Down, other than the name Rich Adams. As far as I can tell "cubits" are not used in WD. The numbers don't align to any pages. At least in my copy they don't.

I really think you're on to something with this one. The only part that doesn't fit for me - is involving people that haven't been around much, AND, how exactly, once their turn comes up - what are they supposed to do with the measurements?

Maybe I am supposed to bribe the guards with my 10 yuan note. I dont think a $1.47 is going to get us far. Laughing

Definitely makes sense, Schwinn. Since we did hunt down Hatch in the hopes of obtaining a map of sorts.

But there's gotta be a fourth somewhere. ;/ And maybe that'll bring some sort of clarity to it all. We have absolutely no idea how the Brightman is even laid out, so those 'directions' could lead someone anywhere.

Since Syn was the first with 'perimeter' as a guide word - maybe the second and third are the measurements of said perimeter?

I bet your right about that, PB. Maybe length X width? How big is a cubit again?
Did we actually ask Hatch for a map?

Perimeter is usually notated by just one number (i.e. 60' perimeter) since it's merely the sum of all sides, but... maybe...

88 x 220 feet (60 x 150 cubits) is a very skinny building. About half the width and two-thirds the length of a football field. Not very large for something like an institute, but then again, we have no way of knowing. Could be comparable to that of a small apartment building, though... maybe it's a specific room/hall of the Brightman? I dunno. D:

we have a very clever PM. he or she has been trying to pull me back into the fold for awhile (see email i posted a few pages back). by involving me in a clue he or she is essentially forcing my hand.

i would assume the 4th is or was a fairly predominant player at some point who the PM is also trying to either lock in or pull back into the fold.

If there is a fourth, my ten yuan is on burrito. However, I've emailed him a couple of times since he disappeared way back when due to illness and he hasn't responded to anything. Worrisome. \:

Maybe its the courtyard that the Oracle spends her time in. Maybe that how we get her out. Port needs to get her into the courtyard and one of the Watchers will be on the perimeter and somehow get her out. I would love to see this map Hatch supposedly has.
