Nice job fifthframe! I tried something very similar but I guess I just didn't hit the magic words on this one...

SPEC: This will be some kind of codename, probably Latin?

dishboy- sounds like a good approach. i'm trying to feed it the complete cast of characters, but no luck yet. at least it doesn't appear to be Ron. Very Happy

i'm going to have to agree with dish here. it doesn't ask for the members name, it asks for it's "Seventh Sons Name"

some brotherhood give "code names " {like dish suggested above, and has been discussed in the chat room} like "Brother Running Bear" or something like that. in the case od 7th sons, if you look at the page with the birth orders {shown here} the "witnesses" all have latin like names. i doubt these are birth name, but rather brotherhood names.

Maybe if we take someone whose name we know and "Latinize" the name? According to those clippings, the girl who went missing was Beatrice, and one of the birth mothers was Beatrix. I have no idea if it's a Latin-based conversion, but might be food for thought?

But they aren't Seventh Sons.

who aren't seventh sons? i was giving an example of names that were latinized by the cult known as the 7th sons. therefore i think the cult of the 7th sons has codenames, latinized, and one of them {not ness the names on that page} is a log in

I'm thinking in all actuality we may not get the name for the login until we talk to ron or ed tonight on the aim chat, but that's just spec of course.

Just tried Conlucco, based on this image. A title (as in a rank, or a new name?) given to 'Richard'.

Edit: Just tried Conluceo as well, since it looked like a possible spelling. Didn't work.

I was trying to find the link to the phone call to DreamProjector, but I can't seem to find it. Anyone else?

So you did. I think the request is for the code name of the member, because "Sons'" is posessive plural.

if this whole process is some sort of pledging-a-fraternity type of deal, how would we know our own Official Name? this doesn't look like the sort of site that existing members would hit up once they're already inducted...i'm thinking that the solution will be "the Latin word for (something)"
