@distilled That's what I meant when I said nickname.

Anyways I got a reply about the rabbit that seems to say that the picture is not of much importance, but there will be more in the future. I'm assuming it was just the PM testing something(s).

@mildmay Good to have you here. I'm a bit of a lurker myself. Smile
I also thought about page number when I saw 131, and since I got the hint because I called him Shelley, I did a google search for 131 Mary Shelley.

The first hit was this
http://www.knowledgerush.com/paginated/frank10/frank10_s14_p1_pages.html
Page 131 of Frankenstein, and Chapter 11(more 1's!).

I don't think it would be that simple, but either way I have no clue what the Frankenstein passage could mean.

Jumping onto this one, already followed the twitter. Fun fact, though I think you guys must already know it: Percy and Mary Shelley were also friends of Lord Bryon, and a nightmare Mary had while staying at his estate is what inspired Frankenstein. Perhaps FFEY-T is still alive though body experimentation?

YT's latest tweet is a reference in a reference in a reference.

WhiteRabbitYT wrote:

All are confused to my Watery end. Well, I wasn't playing chess at the time, despite its telescopic aspects being in outer space [1990]...

I was puzzled, until I tried to work out the connection between the Hubble and chess. And that's when I found this page:

http://www.stephen-stratford.co.uk/yeo_thomas.htm

The section about his chess set will, I think, prove revelatory, but just in case:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

George = Probably his George Cross medal
Chess = FFEYT owned a chess set
Telescope = That chess set was given to him by Desmond Hubble


These three things together are kept in the Imperial War Museum, across the street from St. George's, near the part of London known as Waterloo.

I'm not sure if this is what he means by 'Waters run in the Street'. However, 'Waterloo' is not really a WHEN, unless it refers to the great battle thereof. The Imperial War Museum is also not a when.

I let all this rattle around in my head for a bit and then I went a little more literal. 'Waters run in the Street'. I tried looking for some marathons, but there aren't any in that general area, though the London Marathon is on 17th April. He's been pretty clear that the when is 26 Feb, but I'm still not clear how this connects to the Imperial War Museum, or how waters will run in the street on that day.

WAIT. WAIT. I got it.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):


'When the Waters run in the Street'
FFEYT died in his Paris apartment on Rue de Eaux. Rue de Eaux = Street of Water.


This doesn't really add anything to our knowledge, but it makes me feel better.

high praise

Ofiuco got a "WELL DONE" Tweet. Not to spoil the fun, but clearly the Rabbit reads red well.

I also made a post about water @YT, so that might be it.

Nice one man! That must be it - he died on the 26th on the Rue de Eaux.

Myself and Otter got a tweet last night:

Quote:
@Distilledwill @AidenOtter May I join you both in informed conversation - one knows the time, the other the names involved...


So - one of us knows the time, the other the people? I've replied with:

Quote:
@WhiteRabbitYT join away. I hear Paris is beautiful this time of year; if a little wet.


Just so he knows we've got his little reference.

Got on twitter and started stalking (That was unintentional actually) talking to Shelley. I inquired as to his Location being "London - for now..."

The reply:
Quote:
@DarkenendDL it is good people look beyoNd the basics - yes, I intend to move Away froM london in the futurE. foR now though, the capital...


Using his previous methods of communication, the uppercase letters spell out NAMER. ???

He also reached out to someone called Karomie, and gave a link to a place called Shelley Chiropractic.

Edit: More!!! I got a direct message from Shelley later last night that said
Quote:
To go forwards, sometimes you have to go SDRAWKCAB...


So that would be REMAN. ???

This could mean, he wants @Distilledwill and @AidenOtter to converse with each other, or he wants to converse with them (a threesome). Just saying...

ddl,

just hopping on this during a quiet lunchtime and i noticed your earlier post with the solve to 'REMAN'. this would actually be 'REMAIN' if you include the capital 'I' from his sentence...

also, as a point of maybe some interest, from memory winston churchill has some connection to bricklaying. think it was a hobby of his. and presumably fighting the darkness would = NAZI germany?

mycroft

Suggesting that something you might have dismissed as a mistake was actually intentional - in your previous tweet you talked about how he missed the M out - what was that in reference to?

I believe the M left out of the url of the tweet was intentional, as in we should be looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P instead of .../P.M.
I noticed the Passy Metro Station was where FFEYT was betrayed in 1944, so I sent a tweet to see if that has anything to do with P.M. (although I'm not sure how one would follow orders from a metro station...).
