 		Seems Vlad isn't able to speak about much due to outside forces.

Quote:
James

Any particular reason that 'Timon' picture was mirriored?

Mirrored, rather

Just curious about it.
6:24pmVladimir

Yes.
6:24pmJames

Are you trying to say that the current events mirror those in Timon of Athens, or, something totally different?
6:24pmVladimir

Yes.

'trying to say'? I have said. It is you who are trying to here.
6:29pmJames

Well. Are you not trying to convey a thought to people? If the people are trying grasp it, then you haven't done anything - you're trying to do so.

You've only done it once people understand it.

My take on the matter any way.
6:31pmVladimir

At what stage must the educator inform the pupil of how to hold the pen? Must this continue into adulthood? It may be that the educator is also bound by limits at the time of writing... Perhaps later would be a better time for discussion.
6:33pmJames

Do you have company or are busy with something? If so - I can wait for another time. I'm just trying to gather as much as I can at the moment - and questions - even ones that may be irrelevant - help me with that.
6:34pmVladimir

1 not 2.
6:34pmJames

I see. Well, again, I'll leave you be until you have some time. I have to get dinner started any way.
6:35pmVladimir

please excuse me : Matthew 27:36
6:36pmVladimir is offline.


Matthew 27:36 is basically saying he's being watched.

Quote:
And sitting down they watched him there;


Edit::

Quote:
Ask Todd to help you out - she has a sense of ethics at least...


Uhm. So. Who's Todd?

 		I am going out to reconnect with friends toknight as it is the first knight of my Christmas vacation and I have been antisocial for far too long...but I will have my iPhone with me, and I may well sneak in some checking of Facebook and the board for updates. I hate to have my sense of chivalry unavailable for your use right at the beginning of the next "chaoter," but I should be able to participate more fully tomorrow. I'll keep my eyes peeled.

 		New updated with Vlad.
This part, you guys may want to read closely. If anyone has any idea of what the hell he's talking about, let me know.

Quote:
Vladimir

I have 10 minutes. Ask what you like.

There are phases of opportunity that I can seize - will explain another time. Needless to say, 1.11 has not been chosen at random...

Hence discussion with references to certain books.
7:08pmJames

I have two major questions at the moment. One - Who's watching? Second - HOW can you sense V.
7:08pmVladimir

1 - peopl I used to work for - as I said, will explain that later.

people* apologies - fingers are cold.
7:09pmJames

It's fine.

As for 2?
7:09pmVladimir

2 - Ever been on a bus? Train? Felt someone watching you i the carriage?

in*
7:10pmJames

Yes, a few times.
7:10pmVladimir

How are they doing it? How are you sensing it?

Now extrapolate that further to the whole train, not just the carriage.

Now the train line.

Now the train network.
7:11pmJames

Starting to sound like Astral Projection or something.
7:12pmVladimir

If you want to think of it in that way, fair enough. But nothing leaves any body, more the reverse. The 'senser' is more aware of their environment and continues it.

Like a shark in water with blood.

Has anyone worked out the maths yet?


He then sends me this as a private message :

Quote:
Chat problems. My server is being interfered with.
Delays possible. 1.11 may change.
The french one with AIWS will help you to knight. I must protect my connections.
I will right when I can.


AIWS is Alice in Wonderland Syndrome :

No idea. I note that he said "she can help".

Logged on to Facebook and immediately got a chat message from Vlad. I'll post/edit when I can make some sense of it.

Edit:

GD my keyboard sucks. I've been trying to type for 5 mins and nothing happened. Ugh.

Anyway, this is my conversation with him in its entirety:

Quote:
Vladimir

Dawn.

Dawn.

Dawn...

8:13pmDawn

Vladamir

Are you okay?
8:14pmVladimir

Please check my photos.

There should be something only visible by you and one other. Is this true?


8:16pmVladimir

The wall briefly shone with the image too. Hopefully only you and one other saw it.

I must leave. United we stand 111

God save the King.


For those that can't see it, there's a photo gallery called "Queens alone", meaning I guess that only the Queens can see it.

James and Jim have received password protected emails. In the Queen's album is this quote:

Quote:
Eliot talks of her:

If you shut me here,
I will move the very woods and rocks to pity.

Her name frees the king to move.


Of course, it's from Timon. We tried the name Philomelia as the password with nothing. Then we tried my real name and it didn't work. S

Maybe John Todd?

But, Vlad said "she", so idk.

 		Vladimir did put a comment on one of my pictures (close-up of my eye looking up, with the caption explaining that I actually wear glasses) saying something like, "Not AIWS, I hope?" Don't know if that's relevant.

 		Knights Alone Gallery:

A purple flower labelled "David: ii [Buddleia]"

A lake with a sailboat labelled "Sit back and listen"

That and the Queen one are the only new galleries I can see. Bishop, Rook, Pawn likely have their own galleries.

Maybe try something to do with TS Eliot's "The Waste Land"? http://www.bartleby.com/201/1.html In The Waste Land, her name is spelled "Philomel" - try that?

I was literally just looking at T.S. Eliot poems, lol. I was re-reading "Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock" because it's my favorite. I got side-tracked, lol.

Hee. Well, since he says "Eliot talks of her" and Waste Land has a lot of themes from the Philomela story, it seems a logical place to start.

Also, went on facebook, and got a brief exchange from Vlad:

Quote:
Vladimir

Have you helped your king?

God save the King.
8:57pmBeka

God save him. I'm trying. I have to wait until he's here to help, though.
8:59pmVladimir

"Look through the looking glass then Alice at the other side"

Philomel is the password.

 		For the moment, I think king and queen business should stay to them.
With that being said - I won't be posting the contents of the .doc file here yet.

Jim - if you read this, I urge you not to either. Not yet.
