yup, i'm sure that whichever side I decide on, there'll be great people to play with! (and uF is OOG at all times anyway, right? haha!)

First steps first, joining Keepers since it seems like I'd need a "recommendation" from Winter/Aiden to even consider if I want to hop over to GATE.

Not really decided either way yet, but we'll see how it pans out.

Hi Grimangel. Well, today am making some fun Easter preps always accompanied by popping lotsa little chocolate eggs in my mouth. Cool

Have also been anagramming "We are the disrupters" (the latest on the G.A.T. E. page) using tweets, twitter , updates etc. as a basis with zero, big goose-egg, success.

Well, 82 pages read up on, 9 separate websites to work through and I am all caught up on the story and ready to go Very Happy

I think I will come in on the side of the keepers for now, although I may change my mind in the future Razz

Working on my story now.

New post :

Quote:
We Begin (are you ready?)

Dearest Keepers,As of today I am assigning cards.For reasons that will become clear, they will be cards from the Minor Arcana.Each card will be assigned via blog post; when your card is posted please email me and I will give you a word. Keep it safe.You will eventually use these words to unlock your next challenge.It will be difficult.Love, Winter


Followed by:

Quote:
The Cards & Their Keepers

First, a list of the cards I have chosen and paired with a designated Keeper. I will also create individual blog posts for these with a picture and description

The Page of Wands = Bernd Post
The Queen of Swords = Amandel
The Queen of Cups = Pia
The Nine of Swords = Happy Phantom
The Five of Swords = Oneyearmuse
Page of Cups = Spencer
Knight of Wands = Spoonhead
The Seven of Cups = Nat Berry
Queen of Wands = Eletha Mei
Three of Pentacles = Wasted Time
Ten of Swords = David
Ace of Wands = Raydance


and then a new password to crack on Pergamum project:

Quote:
I am; you are


with a twitter clue of:
Quote:

The water is rising...


also I got an interesting email from Winter:

Quote:
Dearest Russell,

Thank you so much for your story. Your story about water is evoking something strong in me. Will you do me a huge favor and choose any card from the suite of cups? One that not been assigned from the current list of Keepers.

For now I am holding off on putting you on the blog and the Keeper list, but will as soon as I figure out what is bothering me about your water story (nothing bad about YOU, but it is, rather, calling up a connection I had not thought of in awhile).

Thank you!

Love, Winter


The caps would suggest a link to the pergamum password....

Final edit i promise =)

Just noticed that the G.A.T.E page has three new consultants (ex-keepers) so i guess they also have some updates.

Hi All,

I dont like to double post (or in this case triple post) but I had another email from Winter and am pulling a blank on the password so far so thought i would bump the thread and include my email:

Quote:
Dearest Russell,

No apologies are necessary. The connection was an important one and I'm glad I made it. The images of water you described in your story made me think of a recurring image I've been having of being underwater and not understanding why I was able to breathe. At first I thought I was having some sort of nightmare, but now I realize this might just be looking at a future event in which I have to dive for something!

And yes, I will tell you more soon. Right now I'm still trying to figure out the implications for our current mission, especially in conjunction with G.A.T.E.

The Nine of Cups is a very important card and will work perfectly for you.

Love, Winter


I also received my key word which she mentioned in her blog that we would each receive upon emailing her.

Armandel, what are your thoughts on the Nile or the Tigris which you tweeted?

Hi Russell & y'all. We had an Ancient Library of Alexandria connex early on so was just fishing which sure wasn't how Heracleion was discovered. Laughing Beaut article here

In reply to Russell's and my tweets about where the water is rising Pergamum Project wrote:
Everywhere.

EDIT: Just noticed that there's a Cardkeepers' blog update about Max and an interesting, pretty easy, new keepers task.

Yep i have already decided on my book which I am going to try. Fahrenheit 451. Tonight I will largely be setting fire to things =)

My art skills are quite limited but i know how it should look in my head =)

I also spoke further with Winter in regards to Max to find out where the postcards had been sent from (Both Paris) and whether it was normal for him to go out of contact for prolonged periods. Winter confirmed this was normal behaviour and that it was probably time she gave us some background on him.

We 3 Consultant trainees have a task emailed to us as well. It involves picking a local library and sending G.A.T.E. the info about the library...

...interesting. I assume this will be related to the books the Keepers choose.

I wonder if I need to dust off my old library card...

I'm happy to be Queen of Wands. I may design it later, because I haven't yet.
I also got my word already and just submitted my book cover design.

Have also submitted my book cover for Winter. Am still hitting a brick wall on the password having tried hundreds of different words and phrases. Anyone got any theories?

Whilst Amandel and I continue to prod Winter for clues on twitter, an email from her states that the book covers will be posted tonight and that more stories are incoming:

Quote:
Stories
It occurs to me that during our last chapter you learned much about Anna, her parents, and her sister Clara; but not very much about me. During this chapter you have learned very little about Penelepe and even less about Max, one of my closest friends.

It's time to tell you some stories.
