sorry novachild,
'tis i...
shall i unfollow XD?

edit:
so i just remembered that i received an email a while back from ts saying something like "while i enjoy the darkness, your blog is black text on black background which will MAKE IT HARD FOR OTHER FELLOW VILLAINS TO FOLLOW" or something like that..
which means that i guess he wants us to follow each others blogs as well..
which explains me trying to add everybody's blogs, sorry about that XD

No, no, you're fine, haha. I just wasn't sure. I would rather bring it up to everyone just in case down the road it ended up being something in-game.

Judging from previous pictures, the number 5 is the far right bottom and the copyright is far left bottom. So we're looking for at least 9 blogs. And at least 9 masked villains.


I think you're absolutely right. And one thing I noticed that you left out, I believe the white space at the bottom of the middle piece is intentional. If this is going like the past picture's he's released, it will look like a comic book page, with the bottom 3 pieces being a seperate panel. I have a full-sized version of this, but I don't wanna flood the board with pictures.

Sevens

Is it my imagination, or are the sevens dimmer than the other numbers? In the enhanced image above it seems like they might be. Sevens remind me of the seven deadly sins, and a connection to Thanatos' Sin.

Aillen, I can't honestly say that the 7s appear to be any lighter or darker than any of the other numbers, at least to me.

I've tried everything else, though. I've tried to work it through as a cypher with both the words "marinate" and "combinations" as the solution, I've added up each of the circles.

Then, I realized it's only our second challenge so it probably isn't as hard as we're making it. So, I tried a different approach. What if the circles were a dial to a combination lock? T.S. did say that we should be looking to solve a code and find a combination. I have been working on it off and on, but to no avail. I'll work on it again soon (just...not now. It's 4am) and I appreciate any input anyone else has to offer.

Actually, Thanatos (and Thanatos backward, Sotanaht) has 8 letters. Am I the only one who doesn't think the 7s look dimmer?

oh whoops hahhaha i guess i shouldn't have posted that right after i got up from sleeping..

anyways,
i don't think it looks dimmer,
i just looks like how it would shine. look at the other numbers as well,
you'll see that each number's "sparkle" is unique to their own number.

I thought of the combination/lock idea as well. The name "Connect Combinations" and the comment about "cracking codes and combinations" makes me think the circles need to be rotated in some way to connect the proper numbers, like in a safe's combination lock. I tried rotating the circles to make numbers match on either side of the connection, but there is no way to do that with all the top circles, and too many ways to do it on the bottom.
