scratch my last post, because once hare gets the mare of the knights (a queen, or possibly a male mare who would be the king), then iit would be 2 mares on 2
That circle symbol is a symbol used by Led Zeppelin, too. Taken from wikipedia: “symbol is a single circle intersecting 3 vesica pisces (a triquetra). Taken from a book of runes, it symbolises a person with confidence and competence”

Anyone out there on Livejournal? Would you be interested in an LJ commm for advent users?
Okay, just checked the XE facebook group, figured out why LJ would remind you of your initials.
Never got into Xanga though.

Ok, the 15th…Ohhhkay…actually, this all makes so much sense now.
Ghosted by Guise @ 12/16/2007 1:53 PM EST
There’s about 300 less new post here than I thought there would be.
Ghosted by dohopoki @ 12/16/2007 1:56 PM EST
Wow another bigger Mare! Let me guess, “Blaire Winningham”?
Where is everyone?
Ghosted by DrummerJay @ 12/16/2007 1:59 PM EST
Doho, I think it might be down to very little for us to actually solve now, we are left to merely watch the events unfold for the moment. So, it’s likely to stay a bit muted until we’re given more to work on, or if we go back over things.

I’m still a bit confused by the skeleton… Do we know who that is? Or who that was?
Blaire Winningham, eh? She looks pretty evil – red eyes and everything.
Any of the batrib/ dino/ pages updated? Nothing I noticed
Ghosted by Nizz @ 12/16/2007 2:14 PM EST
Nizz, going by the references it was Mare II. Jacob says about Knacks returning from looking for the ‘dead girl’ and then Hare says that she never said ‘dead’ and we see the skeleton.

Folks, check mail…I just got something through.
Ghosted by Guise @ 12/16/2007 2:29 PM EST
Kinda sad, it used to be when I got up in the morning there were a ton of new posts about the latest Advent entry, now that things have slowed down like Guise said there’s not a whole lot to discuss. Makes me miss “the good old days”
I’m drawing blanks on the anagrams… (Assuming ABOARD FENDS MOW is an anagram).
Hey Matt: I think the Advent-urers are ready for Box #23 Discussion Thread, Part IV
Ghosted by Nizz @ 12/16/2007 3:23 PM EST
Don’t worry, I’m still here! I got that picture too. The chant Hssxxlllo said in the 15th was similar to the thing in the picture, except the one in the picture is a bit different. The last couple lines look like “WE FIGHT 4 U” to me.
Could there be any significance in the fact that these e-mails from Hssxxlllo are sent under business-sounding titles? Like, he’s trying to hide his own business… :O
Nizz, I’m sure I’ll be corrected if wrong, but isn’t the zombie skeleton the remains of the Mare that Knacks dated last year; I swear I read that somewhere.
And is that a tiny picture of a face -Matt’s even- in the skeleton eye camera??
Maybe I’m just crazy….

I got “Now a bad ed forms” from “Aboard Fends Mow”
Ghosted by DocDragon @ 12/16/2007 7:36 PM EST
Also “A bad snowed form”
Ghosted by DocDragon @ 12/16/2007 7:43 PM EST
Sorry for the triple post, but I got “We trade a pest catch” from “Attached Pace Wrest”
Ghosted by DocDragon @ 12/16/2007 7:49 PM EST
ABOARD FENDS MOW = made bad for snow
Ghosted by Rhino @ 12/16/2007 8:25 PM EST
wow, ive been working on the anagrams for like an hour, and im betting guise will soon post the answers to them and i’ll be like “why didnt i think of that”
my head hurts from all this puzzling
do you think that cher isnt a true mare and that the new one is the mare from the calendar
For AttachedPaceWrest, It could be “death accepts water” which seems like it could go with made bad for snow
Ghosted by Rob @ 12/17/2007 12:11 AM EST
So, when is Matt making the new thread?
Ghosted by DocDragon @ 12/17/2007 12:16 AM EST
Graham, I’m not sure about Cher not being a Mare, but one thing is certain: the giant Mare means business, and she is a shrewd businesswoman.
Rob, maybe water has something to do with the Wiccan rituals? You know, with all those ingredients and thames and circles and candles and Goth music… (Sorry if anybody here listens to Goth music. =P)
DocDragon, it never hurts to ask, eh? I’m pretty sure Matt reads over these threads, so if enough people are saying “This thread is getting too long!” a new one should be popping up soon…
Yes, when will we be getting a new thread, this one is getting difficult to navigate.
Ghosted by Tresjolie9 @ 12/17/2007 12:46 AM EST
I dunno, but this is getting crazy! I really miss the times when I would spend my day here instead of studying for my finals with 300+ posts every couple days. =P
HOLY SHIT!!! I WAS RIGHT!! I can’t believe this! I just got a chance to read the entry for the 14th, and I am stunned. This is the best Christmas present EVER! I LOVE BEING RIGHT!!!
I gotta go read the 15th. Thanks for the congrats, guys. Much appreciated!

Trudy is just straigh-up creepy
Ghosted by Nizz @ 12/17/2007 3:37 PM EST
Matt, would it be okay, if I made an advent calendar wikki? Would anyone be interested in reading it? In helping me with it? I’m getting tempted to make one to keep up with things which happen year to year.
I hate how I read the blog post backwards. Why are we boning Nacny Drew in College for Christmas? I’m so lost.

I’m not getting the Nancy drew comments. Thoroughly enjoyed the 16th Advent tho
Ghosted by Nizz @ 12/17/2007 3:45 PM EST
Nizz, she’s one of those ‘real life’ European Queens, all about gorging your inbred-self silly, paid for doing nothing and having someone whose job it is to wipe you clean. She is, however, very tall. I say tell her that there is a huge cake in the basement and push her down some stairs (the cake is a lie).
Though, with her powers, why the hell is Cher still in a cage? Rotten hag! Tres, I’d be more than happy to lend a hand if you need it.
Ghosted by Guise @ 12/17/2007 3:45 PM EST
Doho, we do what we must, because we can.
Or, more to the point, how are we going to get our mystery fix after the advent?
Ghosted by Guise @ 12/17/2007 3:47 PM EST
aww, Hssxxllo is a conflicted. Yes he is! Who’s a conflicted bunny?
