 		Yeah I chose 'Spiritual Training and Deity Relations' too, seemed only logical considering my job. I can point them in the direction of binaural beats to get them in touch with their inner god Wink

 		Spiritual Training All The Way!
I took Spiritual Training and Deity relations too, seeing as I'm the school's Religion Instructor.

Felt like the obvious choice!

 		There's a new post on the blog with a greek 'key':

Quote:
ΗΟΣΝΥΝΟΡΧΕΣΤΟΝΠΑΝΤΟΝΑΤΑΛΟΤΑΤΑΠΑΙΖΕΙΤΟΤΟΔΕΚΛΜΙΝ


Using Google Translate I get the following:

Quote:
IOS NYN ORCHESTON PANTON ATALOTATA PAIZEI TOTO DE KLM IN


Quote:
IOS now ORCHESTON everywhere ATALOTATA TOTO NOT PLAYING IN KLM


Not a lot of help I know.

 		THX! That does help, Seadevil, b/c your "orchestra" reminded me that our key is the famous Dipylon inscription. For what it will be used as a key Dunno Am excited!

 		New email from administration titled "Venez M'aider", which translates roughly to "come help me".

Quote:
1.Of the seven, only one remains.
2.If a pin were to drop, where would it fall?If a pin were to push, where would it prick?
3.If a drop of blood were to appear,Of what thickness would it be?

 		TY for posting that, HP! Since the Moorpond Site has been revamped & I needed to email to be re-added to the mailing list, took a stab Laughing at Phoebe's questions, too

In a hasty email I wrote:
Re your "Venez M'aider" email:

Hello Phoebe,

Since I didn't receive the email I'm uncertain if you need answers to your 3 questions. Anyway, the only one remaining of the seven wonders is the Great Pyramid of Giza. In my mind, your other questions reference the play, Macbeth. Namely the witch's speech: "By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes.". And finally Lady Macbeth saying "make thick my blood".

Truly thought a reply was necessary since the origin of your email's title can be understood as a Mayday call. Can I assist you and the girls?

And, Yikes Shocked , in an unexpected reply someone wrote:
1. The Great Pyramid of Giza

2.

3.

Phoebe and the girls are not here.

 		E-mail
I too got the e-mail this morning.

I also got to
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the Great Pyramid of Gaza
and
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Macbeth
.

Just found
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~maggieoh/Macbeth/chain1.html

It seems to reference both - might be nothing, but it might be a link between all 3.

What do people think?

EDIT: Forgot to mention, it also speaks of dancing a bit.

 		New blog post up today. Which is cool.

Also, I sent in

Quote:
1. The Great Pyramid at Giza.
2. Down and In.
3.Thicker than water.


Got a reply titled '2/3'

Quote:
1. The Great Pyramid at Giza.
2.
3.Thicker than water.


I have a feeling that the person/people behind the new website is testing us with riddles before they give us access.

 		Puzzle number 2
I sent an e-mail with the solution to number 2 as 'the ear' ('you could hear a pin drop', and piercing for an ear-ring).

Sadly, received the same response.

I'm getting nowhere with the middle puzzle!

 		I've been racking my brain trying to figure out this second riddle... So far I've sent in 'down and in', 'floor board', and 'the page.' All of which were wrong.

The only thing in the riddle that really sticks out to me is that they use the word 'pin' for both questions, not 'pen.' As such, I'm just gunna leave these various definitions here to help stimulate any ideas...

We're so close and this stasis is driving me crazy!

Quote:
(n) a piece of jewelry that is pinned onto the wearer's garment
(n) when a wrestler's shoulders are forced to the mat
(n) small markers inserted into a surface to mark scores or define locations etc.
(n) a number you choose and use to gain access to various accounts
(n) informal terms for the leg
(n) axis consisting of a short shaft that supports something that turns
(n) cylindrical tumblers consisting of two parts that are held in place by springs; when they are aligned with a key the bolt can be thrown
(n) flagpole used to mark the position of the hole on a golf green
(n) a small slender (often pointed) piece of wood or metal used to support or fasten or attach things
(n) a holder attached to the gunwale of a boat that holds the oar in place and acts as a fulcrum for rowing
(n) a club-shaped wooden object used in bowling; set up in triangular groups of ten as the target
(v) to hold fast or prevent from moving
(v) attach or fasten with pins or as if with pins
(v) pierce with a pin
(v) immobilize a piece

 		hi wilh1206,

I suggest you try "map",

as it comes up when i google "drop pin" and "pushpin".

or try "location", or "waypoint", or"destination"

good luck.

 		Coffee Re that ever-elusive riddle #2. Each time I've sent in my incorrect guesses (mat-hematics & short-cut) I've closed with a little question and...

Someone at Moorpond in reply wrote:
Have we met before? maybe...
and
The girls have gone home. Phoebe is looking for the pin.

 		Just read through, caught up... On the outside... If a pin were to drop... It would fall into... Silence?

So quiet you can hear a pin drop...

If the pin were to push, it would prick...

Yeah, that's all I got for now.
