 		I would go with the email by princeofthesword (jmcdonald) because of the question "Do you think there's a way to rescue the Queen from what she's become?"

This might give us something to do instead of just something to think about.

I really like Dorkmaster's questions as insight into SP, but I think they could be answered in such a vague way that the answers would be useless to us. Although I guess all the questions could be answered like that. <sigh>

 		Notice the tags? It seems the SP is getting <STRONG>er.

ps - could we add a poll to this thread? It seems like we should decide and vote here first, then all agree to email votes for the same question.

Rock On

 		I voted and I also asked Dana what she would vote for.
I voted for Paul P's question...

Didn't give it a lot of thought, its the first question and I'd like to know "what tools she requires to get back".

But I also figure Dana may want to vote so I sent her this message:

"Hi Dana,

I've been keeping up with the bizarre situation with your aunt's website. I wasn't sure if you noticed the update to the 404 error page today. It looks to be from the entity known as the Sleeping Princess. I pasted the text below. She wants to answer some of our questions, so maybe you'd like to vote for the question you'd most like to be answered. But I'm sure you have questions of your own, perhaps you can send them to her at ladybee777SPLAThotmail.com or if you don't feel comfortable I can forward them on for you.

Please keep yourself safe. We're all hoping for a good outcome to this surreal backroom dream.

Aloha,

Jonathan J

<pasted text from 404 page>"

It would be cool if we could find out what Dana would want to know.

Probably a good idea to coordinate the vote, but I jumped the gun and voted already. Embarassed

 		Robots?
In the page source document, it says at the top "meta name=robots". The other pages on ILB that I looked at all said "meta name=description" instead. Is this robots reference just standard for any 404 page? I don't know enough about HTML to know whether it could be important or not. Dancing robots maybe? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
With regards,

Ian Whalen

I'm still thinking about it but there's 2 immediate options that leap out at me.

1) Bellebet (" Is there anything you need to brighten up your room?") is kind of a setup question. You're hoping she'll bite so you can reel her in with a bigger question.



SQUEEEE!!! She likes me! She really really likes me. Or at least my question.

Guess you can figureout I'm voting for myself.

Itty bitty filet o' trout for you. As previously explained here, it's a standard tag for 404 pages to advise search engines and other web crawlers to ignore the page.

In other words: no, they won't be dancing.

 		This is my first post here, so please don't kill me if this has already been found -- a quick glance at the first page of the forums didn't reveal anything... Has anyone read the text in the image yet?

Question:

So what happens on August 24?
If I have a question, I use this mark (?) at the end.


...and...

Answers:

I don't know what will happen.

Your revolution comes (?)

I'm really concerned about it.

I can't even begin to make a guess.

love,


Sounds like Melissa is playing footsy with her Odessian sailor maybe?

Editted for "Answers" and then "Question."

Thanks for being interested in helping solve these mysteries. You might want to check out http://bees.netninja.com to get caught up on what's been discovered so far. You might want to try the static wiki since the actual wiki seems to be slammed.

Thanks for playing!

Edit - malformed URL Smile

Yup. This was from the Phase 2 update, discussed here and here, among other places. It is believed to be the Sleeping Princess answering questions from e-mails sent to ladybee777SPLAThotmail.com, and the full list of 13 is also in the Wiki (when it's available Mr. Green ).
