I'm hoping for some information about their world. Maybe a History of the cube-finding peoples wouldn't be too much to ask? Memoribillia would be good, and we're all after puzzles, but background information is what makes their world seem real, and we never know when we might need it.
They might also bother telling us what the cube actually DOES, If I happen to find it, I want to know if I'll get sucked into a hell dimension by touching it

i'd love to get a package full of back story, cipher like the abby way stuff would make it fun, but i really like RP aspects of lots of backstory.

Oooh, how about some puzzles from the puzzle cafe chain or something, that'd be fun Especially if there were a few red herring unsolvable ones in there somewhere which we'd get convinced had clues in!
Yeah!
OK. No then.

"Probably" eh? I praise you all knowing Djrazz
Meh, you're probably right... I doubt it's going to be a multi part puzzle... There might be a personalised code so we can access a particular area of some website (333 people is a lot) but it will only be for one small clue if they were to do that, so as to not disenchant those outside the 333...
Post room's open soon, I might pop down (it's 5:45am here )

Argh! I actually *dreamt* of Sente's parcel! It came in the post today and contained a pullover with perplex city academy logo and a number of puzzle on the reverse! I think I should quit for a while and start doing something constructive!

Arrgh! Why does the post have to be so slow in this lousy country? I have to go soon and the post still hasn't arrived

Posty normally comes around mid-day for me. I asked my girlfriend to text me if anything comes as I'm at work. However, I'm pretty sure we won't see any today, maybe Tuesday or Wednesday at best I think.

I so hope the mailing is a multi-part puzzle that - finally - gives us a collective authentication key so we can access the Perplex City world without having to resort to a filtered version of the Sentinel and the fluffy outpourings of Sente's teenage daughter. I am dying for this game to finally get properly interactive.

my postman brought me an advert for sky + and the NTL bill....hopefully the parcel needs the special van to deliver it and he'll be on his way now....if not i may go on a killing spree in the post office and blame it all on the perplexed voices in my head

Sente imitated my gran's handwriting and sent me a clue disguised as a birthday card with a cheque for £10 in it...
Hmmm.. how did he get her chequebook though? These guys are GOOD!

Dreams I dreamt of the parcel too. But it wasnt a sweater in my dream. It was loads of really complicated diagrams, bar codes, snippets of info, like a random catalouge of confusion. And a post it note saying "Oh, sort this out if you think you're so clever. Cheers. Sente".
Prophetic??
