But by the Mare Winningham calendar, a few short days could mean billions upon thousands of lifetimes away.

Jen, thank you…thank you not least because you pointed out favorite and I had for ages resisted believing it was two words, one of which was ‘it’ and the other began with an F…though I blame how alike R and K look.

Rob, well…I suggested elsewhere a german male, Herr Winningham.

Chestnuts roasted by Guise @ 11/20/2008 3:48 PM


Guise – You’re welcome! I was convinced it was ‘for it’ until I realised there was an ‘e’ on the end, and that what I thought was a lowercase ‘r’ was a ‘v’. And I just realised that I used ‘favourite’ instead of ‘favorite’ in my last comment, curse this instinctive urge to put extra vowels in everything…

What about ‘Dare Winningham’, the flamboyant Victorian adventurer dad?

Chestnuts roasted by Jen @ 11/20/2008 3:52 PM


Brer Winningham.

That way it can be male and still make reference to rabbits.

Jen, I share the pain of our precious ‘u’ going missing…I’m always wanting to add them back in when I’m typing the stuff up. Oh well, not our fault that the linguistic diet of other nations gives them loose vowels.

*shoots Guise and looks to the crowd* You’re welcome.

Chestnuts roasted by Morfnblorsh @ 11/20/2008 4:09 PM


Okay I take it back, that joke was brilliant, and I am still chortling over it.

Chestnuts roasted by Morfnblorsh @ 11/20/2008 4:21 PM


ok for all those who thought we might meet grandma winingham this year

http://www.x-entertainment.com/adventcalendar/2006/december6/

thats right if any of the elderly clues were right and we meet grandma, then this will be the year of TWILIGHT ANUS

Chestnuts roasted by Rob @ 11/20/2008 5:32 PM


We’d better hope it’s Twilight Anus….and not Ostrich Anus.

Curse my lack of home internet!! I hate being so far behind in all the Advent happenings!!! Hopefully I’ll be back soon and can help to unravel some of the mysteries surrounding the latest Advent calendar.

Chestnuts roasted by Dan @ 11/20/2008 7:37 PM


see Guise, that’s why I’m gonna drop in from time to time. I love doodling wrong, wicked things.

Althought that Miami Vice Knacks and Kuse was awesome…

sigh.

Holy crap, how did I miss this blog post for 5 days? NEXT YEAR… I will not be going through finals at advent calender time…hopefully, and I will spend literally hours trying to figure this stuff out.

Just wanted to interrupt all the decoding and puzzling and photoshopping and wish everyone (well, everyone in the US ;D) A happy Thanksgiving weekend! :)

just doing some random linking up here…

The line “you mess with spirit world…” led us to the articls by the same name. That featured Ele-Man.

The video Comedyvine had a bit about “You think YOU’VE seen elephants?” at 00:47 (and again at 1:05)

Also, there’s a bit in the letter at:
http://www.x-entertainment.com/updates/pics/mega5/TastefulHoller.jpg

about NOT being able to draw an elephant.

“Drawing” could be about drawing it from the spirit world..some demon eleman/elephant coming to us via the evil playmobil circus perhaps?

Chestnuts roasted by divechaz @ 11/21/2008 5:56 AM


ohhhhhh crap. I just found a BIG clue. Really big.

http://www.x-entertainment.com/xmassy/pics/23.jpg

I found this after diggin through the 2002 calendar since the Arcano drawing was dated to match. What does it mean, I wonder?

Chestnuts roasted by Das @ 11/21/2008 11:11 AM


Normally I brush off the loopy conspiracy theories of others. But I really like your theories divechaz. There’s a really nice continuity and tightness to it. I think you may be on to something. Maybe not dead-on, but I definitely think you’ve touched on something important.

Maybe to defeat giant enemy crabs we will need an Elephant God’s help. And maybe after we figure out that Barnum is a friend, he will help us summon it.

*stands over by divechaz*

Chestnuts roasted by Morfnblorsh @ 11/21/2008 11:11 AM


Das-

I think the meaning is pretty clear.

Arcano is coming to Christmas… *scary music*

Chestnuts roasted by Morfnblorsh @ 11/21/2008 11:15 AM


Interesting thing about the elephant. I think it is safe to say that we will be seeing stuff from one of the circus related advent calendars this year.

In addition, pirates have always been around in the background, they may have a more prominent role. However we still won’t know for another week.

Chestnuts roasted by Tresjolie9 @ 11/21/2008 11:17 AM


Additionally about the hidden 23.jpg.

At least now the date we were given on the Arcano drawing makes sense. That was the 23 from 2002 we were looking for I suspect.

Excellent find Das! Congratulations!

Chestnuts roasted by Morfnblorsh @ 11/21/2008 11:19 AM


Yes, good find, Das, so does this mean we will be seeing some characters from the 2002 calendar, that we never got to know too well?

Chestnuts roasted by Tresjolie9 @ 11/21/2008 11:31 AM


There was a lot of undisclosed information at the end of 2002. There’s no telling what could have happened! I’m sure Matt has something really good cooked up.

One thing’s for sure….

There’s a-doin’s transpirin’!

Chestnuts roasted by Morfnblorsh @ 11/21/2008 11:56 AM


Just in case, I researched what the box for the 23rd from the 2002 Advent Calendar was. As you can see from the link below, it’s Santa’s bag. Probably not significant.
