Oh my god, yessssssss! Rock On
Also, wow, I had no idea we had so many people playing!

Although I am a little sad that apparently the Trials no longer matter since I spent some time translating the Tam Lin ballad into modern English so it would be easier for us to analyze for hidden symbolism... but I guess that just fits with my role ^^;

I don't mind being a sacrifice. That just means that I don't have to worry so much about blowing my cover. I can just be straight forward with the Unholy Court and save the others. And if the opportunity comes we can attack from the inside.

I was meaning the one with all the roles. I checked my email and spam folder and nothing. Starting to worry I may have put my email in wrong, but I have spoken with them so... meh who knows.

I got the email. I'm quite happy with my role.
I specifically metioned double meanings in my app, so I'm curious about what the people who are sacrifices might have said to have been given that role.
Also I made this list cause it gets a bit confusing for me to keep track of all these flowers sometime lol.

We have:

Double Agents:
Orange Lily - Njberry
Crocus - RAD24
Columbine - Mehetabel
Aconitum - Tenshi Akui

Sacrifices:
Chrysanthemum Leucanthemum - (?)
Nightshade - Draghkar
Azalea - Elethamei
Gladiolus - LOBO247
Silybum - Blaqueice
Iris - Nashman88
Plumeria - Nighthawk1

Mediators:
Bells of Ireland - Grimangel53
Wisteria - Bluesylvia
Anemone - Necropolitan

Royal Guard:
Black Rose - Mrshomersimpson

Weird, considering you're the most special one! I wonder if it's a problem with Hushmail or a PM error.

And thanks for the list, Necropolitan! I wonder if Chrysanthemum might be that one player who someone mentioned a while back that's playing on Twitter but isn't on the forums?

I'm honestly a little curious how they picked the various jobs.

Wonder if my application came off rather... sneaky or something LOL

I got the email too, and that's what I'm thinking. I mentioned choosing Crocus because it has to do with foresight, which certainly comes in handy with perception, action, and even simple conversation (my favorite part about ARGs, actually). Needless to say I'm very pleased with my placement Smile

bluesylvia (you participated in Rabbit Black, did you not? I seem to remember you from there, and that has been my favorite ARG thus far), that's some great work so far with the poem, and I don't think we should abandon it just yet. Even if we're only looking for clues as to how this wwill all play out, it seems it might come in handy at various points.

Yep, that's me! I still dream about that ARG and how wonderful it was... Oh, TEDO, how I miss you~ *nostalgic sigh*
Don't worry, I'm holding on to it in case we need it somewhere in the future Wink
I think it'll be especially useful for any future Tam Lin references since they name-dropped Mile's Cross earlier.
