Uh, that is big news. “Fallen Saint” is “The Spirit Father”, and Hare is über evil (but we kinda knew that already.) Good old HU is having second thoughts, but still believes in “the good fight”.
To me it looks like the orange sticker on the left says: “If you can stay calm, if all around you is chaos…then you probably haven’t completely understood the situation.”
Been working on it, but I’m not great at anagrams. Anybody?

F.Y.E.O. is of course “for your eyes only”. But the page is titled “fyoe”. Clue or typo?

FM, how about “Stay Thy Hand”, to prevent aggression?
Ghosted by Guise @ 12/15/2007 8:06 AM EST
Oh, and at the top of the letter are three pictographic characters…the last two are Anglo-Saxon O.T. or Q.T. The first is not, so whether it could be “On the QT?”

The little orange sticker on the side of te page reads:
“If you can stay calm, while all around you is chaos… then you probably haven’t completely understood the situation”

Remind me to look up before posting… sorry Anders O.
Ghosted by Fungusmungus @ 12/15/2007 8:42 AM EST
wow, new page, sweet, didnt see hare coming
and the letter
fyeo, havent read the posts but “for your eyes only”
dont know why the title is fyoe
any ideas with the @V!s!0N
seems kinda like spam mail thing, but its written
me again, looked up the sticker quote, and one thing popped up that caught my eye
“Top 52 Sayings you’d like to see on office inspirational posters” http://www.well.com/user/argv/funny/inspiration

I wonder if the “@V!S!ON” is a clue that bunnies might interchange exclamation points with the letter “I”. The “fuselage” anagram anybody??

Just want to throw out:
Dio, Ann and Kitty…you three, without a doubt ROCK. I’m am absolutely enthralled with the art!
And Dio, I ‘aww-ed’ at the Hssxxlllo and Kuse one. Which is a rather scary thing for me to do!

Is the font of the number different for 12/14?
Ghosted by Jeremy @ 12/15/2007 1:05 PM EST
Yeah, the font is a little different every day on the calendar. Had to look for a few seconds to see it.

you know.. judging from how Cher was checking out the 15th’s box, i think we might be getting yet another Mare clone.. and Waiterbot might be getting a hand blast

Hey all
So I got an idea in my head last night and this is what came of it. http://youtube.com/watch?v=J2f0rqYUUos
I figure I’m not much good at anagrams and I’m not an artist but at least I can (hopefully) provide some cheap entertainment. Thanks to Ann for the inspiration.
Awrighty, I’m back. To everybody that has made Advent 2007 art in any form, you guys \m/ my socks.
Since I’m back home now, the YouTube videos are taking for-freaking-ever. From what I have seen, the video on /thing/ has Ann’s poster. So when are you going to make a wallpaper out of that, Ann?
I’ve been watching the VG Cats video several times today and was thinking of the calendar. Especially the bit “We do what we must, because we can”. You did a grand version!
Ghosted by Guise @ 12/15/2007 4:34 PM EST
Thanks Guise! I’ve been wathing it myself. That song gets stuck in your head so dang easy it’s scary!
Becuz I am a crazy Advent-urer and fangurl, I shall do what has not been attempted before:
I’m making a a Mare costume.
To quote one of you guys: HELL TO THE YES.
And, now you all may return to your regularly scheduled Advent-ureing. lol
Ghosted by Dio and Lex @ 12/15/2007 5:24 PM EST
I did send this to Hssxxlllo and Hare, by the way.
Wow Ben that was frightfully entertaining. Kinda creepy to see them moving on the screen.
And thanks for all the compliments guys, it means a lot!
Ghosted by Dan H @ 12/15/2007 5:34 PM EST
Ben, that was niftily freaky, I wonder how Hare will take it?!
Dio, HELL TO THE YES indeed!
Ghosted by Guise @ 12/15/2007 5:46 PM EST
I’m really loving all this Advent Calendar fan-stuff! The drawings and videos and everything are really, really cool! I wish I didn’t have such a slow connection right now though (I’m at my sister’s house, which has sloooow internet). I can’t get that elfyourself thing that Ben posted. Oh, and Dio and Lex – you have to post pictures when you finish it! Haha, I wonder if you can convince some of your friends to dress up and Knacks and Kuse? And Mista Snowman and Waiterbot!
Looks like I missed all the new bunny stuff, but that’s nothing new. I’d stick around more, but I really have to study French, and this connection is slow enough to make it kind of annoying.
I know this is old news, but I still can’t get over HARE WINNINGHAM. Fuck yes.
Ghosted by Frakkyfire @ 12/15/2007 6:01 PM EST
My friends think I’m insane already, so I ask my bf if he’d be my Kuse. XD
Ok, those symbols on the new letter reminded me of something, but to explain myself, I had to draw it out: http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g30/RandomLunacy/XEAC006.jpg
Hope you can read my handwriting. Two of those symbols jumped out at me because they looked like codes for ground-air emergencies. The F one looks like a combo of require doctor for serious injury and require ammunition and firearms, while the arrow means “am proceeding in this direction”.
Also, some futhark runes. The arrow means T.
Just some food for thot.
Ghosted by Dio and Lex @ 12/15/2007 6:08 PM EST
wow all those videos are hilarious. I will play around with making those posters into desktop wallpapers later on tonight.
And if you liked the “still alive” song i suggest you check out his other stuff esp. “re: your brains” at http://www.jonathancoulton.com/primer/listen . I’m going to see him in concert in march, just bought my tix.
Okay, that circle with the three things in it some type of a Wiccan symbol. I remember it being featured heavily on the show Charmed to represent the “power of three.”
Hey, I just got the elf thing to work! That is freakin’ hilarious! And if you look closely … Jacob is a woman!! LOLOLOL.
Ghosted by Frakkyfire @ 12/15/2007 6:44 PM EST
Ann, that’s cool about the concert. Have to say, some of his stuff has that ability to just make a day brighter and inspire to surreal degrees.
Ghosted by Guise @ 12/15/2007 6:46 PM EST
I’ve switched to my laptop, and now I can see some of the stuff I couldn’t before – namely the new stuff on /thing/. I’m alarmed – is that BLOOD on the F.Y.E.O. letter?
…I hope Hxxsslllo is okay.
Ghosted by Frakkyfire @ 12/15/2007 6:50 PM EST
D’oh. Yeah Tres, the triquetra. Now you say it, I can see it.
Ghosted by Guise @ 12/15/2007 6:55 PM EST
Sorry for the double post, but I have to say I’m blown away by all the fanart, and videos this is producing. Dan H, excellent video, and thanks Ann for even more fanairt, and introducing us all to that song.
By the way, does anyone play the video game it came from?
