(Gonna dp, since last post was yesterday.)

I don't know if we all got the same clues to the pw protected post of the prequel challenge (I hope you're all in it?) but here are mine:

Quote:
"What's gone and what's past help should be past grief."
"There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so."
"To mourn a mischief that is past and gone is the next way to draw new mischief on."

I really wanted it to be "regret", but alas.

Ideas?

Edit: for reference, quotes are from the following works of Shakespeare:
The Winters' Tale, act 3 scene 2 (Paulina)
Hamlet, act 2 scene 2 (prince Hamlet)
Othello, act 1 scene 3 (The Duke)

yep got the same one, I figured 'death' but that doesn't work either.

However the first part is a quote from The Winter's Tale by Shakespeare

ETA: that was a quick edit.

Yeah, I was wondering if we're suppose to do something now? Is there a hint in the text or something? Or do we just wait now?

My guess is that we'll get occasional hints to occasionals posts which contain information about our characters, rather than a game per se.

New pw-protected submission, Maria. Do we have any clues...?

Edit: Is it "a variety of triangles and lines"?

Winter Sylvana on the Cardkeepers blog wrote:
Dearest Keepers, it's time to play Blackjack. You were recently given a card and told to keep it face down. Flip your cards over and begin. You may play as a team. Once a card is played it will count toward the total, so be strategic.


Am holding a 9. That's high so reckon I shd start off or just pass for now. Will, of course, hold until y'all provide your ideas. fwiw: Am clueless re the Maria PW. TGIF! Smile

Mine too is a nine.
How yall figure this game is to be played? I've only ever played the casino version, and there you don't really have a hand to play from. Is there another way?

Just get 21 or close to it, mine's a 4 of Cups so 17 would be nice for me.
