GAH! Gone for one weekend and I'm made a scribe! Time to play catch-up!

Edit: O.k. so after reading EVERYTHING from 37-42, I'm mostly caught up. I'm kinda concerned that I'm #13. I'm the 13th of 13, in a game all about 13s. I'm either very lucky, or very unlucky. I'm mostly Italian so I'll go with lucky. Smile

Double Edit: O.k. I'm confused. Why does 13 come up on my page when Toby is named the 13th scribe?

Triple Edit: Could it be that it's an anachronism. That 13 is appearing in the list (On my page) before it should? Am I reading too much into this?

Most of us scribes had the number 13 in one form or another on their scribe pages or in their scribe movies... Most likely a refrence to Triskabiblios itself, or the books. I simply look at it as an indentifying marker. (But there may be more to it, if so we'll find out when the time is right.)

Personally, I've got a theory on the order of the scribes on the scribe directory, because some of us are out of order as far as the discovery of our scribeship goes. We're also not listed in alphabetical order, which makes me think there is something else to it. (But then again, I've been wrong many times before, but for speculation's sake let's consider this:)

Orkid...She is our Alice, so it makes sense that she would be first. Toby being the 13th (last) also makes sense, because he'll probably be the one to have to tie everything together. (Not to mention the fact that he's been officially named the 13th scribe.) The rest of us are in between. If indeed we have been listed in some kind of order, it's possible that Triscal has particular tasks/books/puzzles assigned to each of us that need to be completed in a timeline. If that's the case, then Jackalope, you're the midpoint. Smile

Don't take my word on that. Like I've said before, it's a theory and I don't know how relevant it is, if in fact, it's valid at all. (But in the spirit of possibility, it's something to consider.)

The middle, or the end, or the begining. It doesn't really matter, all that matters is the journey. Plus, I'm anachronistic. So maybe I'm not in the right place at all.

Hi I'm new to this whole ARG thing so I may need you guys to help prod me in the right direction. I haven't had a chance to read all the posts yet so tell me if this has already been covered but did anyone go to www.xorandor.com i don't actually know binary so I was wondering if it meant anything to anyone.

I also think Iv worked out that map in islingtons notebook. On the right hand side is aldgate so the blurred part at the bottom in the middle is probably london bridge/ new london bridge. I used this site to help me work it out

thanks for the work on xorandor im not sure its relevant as it doesn't quite make sense.

I do have a question for the other scribes out there. Why is there a blank space between Graeme and Six Sided Square on the scribe page. There is no other seperation on the page only that one. That places Orkid, Duckie, and Graeme at the top, and the rest of us below.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not upset about it. I was just wondering if anyone thought it was significant?

I did a search and i don't think this has been mentioned yet...
The image on Duckie's scribe page comes form Colgate University's website:

I looked at the campus map here and compared it to the place where the "X marks the spot" and it appears to me to be Persson Hall.

That page also has some good info on good old 'Gate and our love of 13. I think you might be misaking a parking lot for our lake, though-- Perrson Hall is, in fact, near the top of the hill, where the red X seems to be near the bridge. I'll go on a photo recon now, so back with that later.

I've been lurking for a while (I used to ARG a long time ago but I stopped for a while) and I've noticed this on the "6.5 Testing the Hermite: Three Stars on a Circle"
