He means of other places people are actively discussing this, right now.

Shadowspawn, I don't think there are any other places as active as unfiction and teamxbox. I went to x-scene, but they're pretty quite there, and most are new comers, asking the same questions over and over again.

I still see attempts to unite, and still I see no unification. What will it take to unify us all?

I think the only thing that will unite everyone is a good web-based chatroom. Know any?

Well, if you have an active chatroom, then you can use the forums, or places like this: http://home.comcast.net/~jilee86/ourcolony/challenge.htm to host up to date info about the progress. It is much easier to update a page with snippets every now and then, then skimming through a 300 pages long thread.

while i agree that one place would be better than many - but wouldnt it seem more sense to put our energy in trying to solve this god damm riddle than eventually, probably, create a new forum!!!!

By web-based, I mean dummy-proof, so that any 16 years old boy/girl will find it easy enough to join in, and chat. It doesn't have to be HTML. It can be in Java, or PHP, just as long as it's easy to use, and dummy-safe.

We're overthinking this. Assuming Kubla Kahn is the right direction, each picture has served a very clear purpose.

(1) STC - Giving us the name of the poet
(2) Poppies - Confirming that we're talking about Coleridge
(3) KK - Giving us the name of the poem (kubla kahn)
(4) Beware! - Confirming that its kubla kahn we're to studying
(5) Lat/Lon coordinates - ???
(6) 4+3 - ???

We're being vectored in. The last two pieces (coordinates and 4+3) probably tell us where in the poem to look.

That's my theory. Everything else is just too random or clearly OOG
