I didn't see anyone else mention it so forgive the trout if it has already been said.
perhaps the 'maze' is not really a maze at all. As Odin suggested it is percieveable that the letters 's e n' are incorperated into the maze. I personally don't see them, but it got me thinking of other forms of hidden text.
I believe it was the Freemasons who had a secret language that was based on letter squares. an example can be found
here

While this is not directly applicable to the maze format, perhaps some related sceme is.

Alternativly, as the maze is in a grid arrangement, perhaps reading the lines/space across or down will translate to binary (wild speculation)
I'm just wondering if the maze is in fact a message writen in a graphical manner. anyway, that's my two cents.

not lucky enough to have a card in my possession yet, but ill be in 4 international airports next weekend soo ill look and i thought of the freemasons also but just brefily, probably because of The Da Vinci Code by dan brown, great book just like an arg, except with a book

Focault's Pendulum is a truly great book -- i wanted to make an arg based on that --- where a story sucks you into reality

thanks for the book, i think the 'maze' was hand drawn, look at the corners (lines overlap) and the lines (way to not stright for a stamp). but the 'PCPS' in the center looks like a stamp because of how it fades, now i also see that the entire thing is faded, it looks like the maze thing was drawn with a pen running out of ink, you know what i mean?
this is entirely too much thinking in the week before finals....

I'm just wondering...if the maze is hand drawn, then can we have someone verify that the maze thing appears/doesnt appear on all of the postcard, and see if there are any differences...or was the maze hand drawnt the first time, but then scanned and printed onto all of the cards.

The one on my card is the same as the one scanned in.

The whole card is printed in reality none of it is handwritten, however the text from Sente, the blacked out address and the maze are in a red/black ink and so look like they are meant to appear to be added afterwards to the 'blank' postcard

I can confirm that there is a line all the way around the PCPS it just gets faint in the top right corner thats all

The drawing of the maze in the first post in this thread is correct
(apart from one minor thing the short line 'floating' near the bottom left of the maze actually joins the bottom wall rather than having the gap there)

I can see that this has been pretty well talked about - and is probably pretty much over.

I was just wondering however, is it possible that it could almost be a representation of some type of map? (unlikely though)
