 		Well, I guess I'm going to miss out on my 1st degree. I wonder what it entails. We need someone on the ground to help us!

 		possible hidden letter in new order of umbra logo
could this be a clue?
[img]http://s1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc458/lov3lyorchid/?action=view&current=hiddenE.png[/img]

I've never uploaded a pic before i hope this works. If not hopefully someone out there can help me.

Anyways I came across this when looking closer at the new logo.
There also appears to be a 2 on the bottom right in the filigree, but i could be reaching on that one.

Has anyone else noticed this E? are there more letters or is this just a coincidence?

Also has anyone noticed that the image is kind of a mirror for itself... the things there are two of are in opposite colors black or yellow and then there is the angel at the top and demon at the bottom. This is something I just noticed- It probably doesn't mean anything.

Also what's up with ORDO... it is an anagram for Door but i don't get anything else out of it.[/img]

You're welcome, but just doing my ARG duty. Wink

Speaking of updates, tsitluccoeht tweeted the following...

I mentioned this ARG to celina, who is heading to SDCC now. She knows to look out for LAGP stuff, but probably has not seen the Umbra logo nor the mystery "A" symbol. This will be interesting, to watch how this unfolds for the "mundanes" out there.


The countdown timer on Order of Umbra, will expire tomorrow July 22 at 1:00pm PDT. The coordinates of 32.70951, -117.164297 appear to be at the Martin Luther King Promenade. I'm attaching a screen cap of the location, the green arrow marks the coordinates.

I believe ORDO is Latin for Order.

 		I wonder if it's going to be a booth for the show, too.

Edit--Etatsopaeht wants us to get deep inside the Umbra Ordo, before we make a stand (obviously).

I'm not really sure we should necessarily be helping her. I don't know WHO to trust right now. The Order is intimidating, but their Grand Summoner DID give me that spell that helped Lukas... for a little bit, anyway. I mean, he tried to help Lukas, and the comments on Etatsopaeht's Twitter imply she was trying to kill the guy. Or at least she didn't think the Order could stop the Umbra.

Either way, Etatsopaeht gives me the willies. I'm all for keeping Carol safe and infiltrating the Order, but I'm not really up for doing her dirty work until we know more about the story.

I know what you mean. I mean the only reason I joined the Order was to help infiltrate it in the first place , but I'm not hanging on her every word any time soon. I don't think she was actively trying to kill Lukas but she obviously didn't care about him at all to think he deserved to die, she is overall very impersonal to our own causes. The story could take either turn here.

Oh, and Carol is already trying to join the Order in hopes that Tsitluccoeht will protect her.

 		New email:

Quote:
Greetings Potential Initiates,

Tomorrow in the bustling city of San Diego, a challenge awaits those
willing to look beneath the surface of reality. The Order of Umbra
seeks new Initiates willing to learn the mysteries of the living
shadows that haunt this reality. Visit http://orderofumbra.com to
receive the first task at Noon.

Those who have already applied for membership and will not be
physically present may guide those in San Diego while seeking their
own answers to the challenge.

Applicants who strive to understand the mysteries presented over the
next days will receive instructions and ritual items needed to
complete their Initiation.

The path is arduous and only the worthy will become Initiates to the
Order of Umbra. I await the results.

Tsiluccoeht

Balls. Well, we need to help whoever is on the ground then! I have an exam at 2pm EST, so I won't be available for 12pm PST exactly.

Technically that should read 12noon PDT but their countdown zero points to 13:00 here -- maybe The Order doesn't follow Daylight Saving Time hours?

I don't know if celina will know about this particular task, but she does know how to track a few of us down online if she needs to contact us. (Are we still borrowing an old chatroom on IRC to discuss things in real time?)

 		A link to that chatroom might help. Also, looking at the countdown, it will be at 4pm EST, which is good for me. I'll be here and ready.

The countdown is going to hit zero at 4pm EDT and 1pm PDT -- but the email said noon? East coast might want to prepare for 3:00 this afternoon just in case. Here's a link for chat:
http://www.chat-solutions.org/chat/unfiction.html
It's our common java chat applet which runs in a web browser window. If you have your own chat client, point it to irc.chat-solutions.org
Then type "/join #stfeline" because we never made a dedicated channel. (If Comic Con drives too much traffic there, i'll create #LAGP or something this weekend)

 		Okay. I usually wouldn't ask this, but the electricity in my house went off. So i'm now using one of the school's computers (my mom's workplace) to actually use the web. It would seem that I can't use any IRC chat at all. So if somone could keep me updated via the thread. I don't need anything fancy just a quick rundown of what's happening since I can't get connected via IRC, and won't know the second to second of what's happening. Thanks!

 		I'll keep you updated as much as I can. Right now nothing much is happening, we're just waiting for the countdown to reach zero in about 30 minutes.

You didn't say which method you were using. You might also try this link:
http://www.unfiction.com/chat/
It is another Java applet -- perhaps you need to upgrade that plugin? I forget which version of Java they currently are using. Another possible problem is that your firewall is blocking you (such as being at work where chat ports are not allowed).
