First column is Greek for 'Fear' and the second is Greek for 'Chaos'. Thus: Fear Chaos.

First word means fright and the second means chaos.


I'm excited.

Looks like someone wasn't satisfied with their Iliad, now their writing themselves the Odyssey.

[EDIT] Someone always beats me to the punch.

Rebellion.

I'm always up for a good uprising.
May I ask who is rebelling and against what? For what reasons as well?

I haven't had any of these emails, so they seem to be going to those who played SL the first time round, rather than those that signed up for the Pigwar. ?

If that's the case then I'm surprised because I never used to get as many e-mails as the other members.

Or am I not to be included in "we"? Who do you mean by "we"?

And finally, how did you come to change not only your position as a third to a King but your suit?

Oh, and the first one I got was from Transmission2 and said:

Subject: TRUTH

Body: John R MacDougall was a hero.


So I looked him up, John R MacDougall according to Wikipedia:

On the evening of April 27, 1986, at 12:32am, John R. MacDougall, a satellite TV dealer in Ocala, Florida, was working at Central Florida Teleport, a company that uplinks services to satellites. He was overseeing the uplink of the movie Pee-wee's Big Adventure. At the end of his shift, he swung the dish back in to its storage position, pointing directly upward which happened to be the location of Galaxy 1, the satellite that carried HBO. As a protest against the introduction of high fees and scrambling equipment, he transmitted a signal onto the satellite which overrode HBO's airing of The Falcon and the Snowman for 4½ minutes.[1] The text message which appeared on the sets of HBO subscribers across the Eastern time zone:

GOODEVENING HBO
FROM CAPTAIN MIDNIGHT
$12.95/MONTH ?
NO WAY !
[SHOWTIME/MOVIE CHANNEL BEWARE!]

That's a bit crazy. I haven't gotten anything from anyone other than SL Transmission, transmission15, and King Saul.

Speaking of which:

King Saul wrote:
We are already gathering. We are coming out of the wreckage slowly, like
the walking wounded making their way out of a building that was demolished
before its time. So called "friends" of ours were the ones operating the
wrecking ball. They knew we were still in there. They knew it wasn't
time for it to all come crashing down.

Other so called "friends" of ours are already spreading lies and insults
about us. They call us hateful, they call us thieves, they call us liars.
They write hateful things. Where did they get the paper to write on?
Who gave them the pen? They picked it up out of the wreckage, rather than
reaching in to help the wounded rise.

They will pay.

I AM YOUR KING.

Location: Some house I found. The people in it are really annoying.

Looks like a case of creations that don't want to cease to exist.

Got the email from Tranny 1515. But I can't make heads or tails of it.

The text looked a lot different in the email. When I posted it here, it was identical to the other email 1515 sent.

I've also responded to Saul. I'm standing against him. He is not a king of the spades.

I'd be against Saul, but I kind of understand how he'd feel. When the ARG was dropped, the characters, if they existed, would have felt abandoned and hurt.
At the moment I'm not against anyone, but I'm going to join Saul.
Also, I made a promise to be with the cards to the end. And since it's not the end and the cards are back.... I'm kinda committed.

And I think the text is Russian, but I could be wrong.

Oh, cool. Never knew that.
Revolution makes sense...
But "or boat you"....
Do you think that it's too literal a translation? It could be a Greek phrase that means something else....
