Wow, I used something I learned in Ethics class! I think that's twice now. :D

Oh, and the enjoy part? Hey, go do something else for a little while. ENJOY the time between now and the time for which we are preparing.
Ole' Voldy's quote on the other thread RE: OpAphid's newest profile kinda hits the nail on the head, no?

Seems to have found purity, we must have a clear mind... *blinks* I think I may be on to something there


edit: that made more sense in my head here for clarity

after having found purity, we must have a clear mind...?

Going back to the calendar of Egyptian holidays, did anybody else notice that our Oct. 12 is the day the land is divided between Horus and Set? A house divided...

that's interesting....

I"m starting to wonder if OpAphid is quite a scholarly person... or just lucky that things are unfolding well for her.
Hey... I GOT IT! Oh... wait... never mind.

uh, have you read her replies? of course she's scholarly. she references everyone and everything.
this is all planned, i don't think any of this happened by chance.
i hate that i like her so much, but i love it all at the same time.

I should have been clearer.

This "10-12-06" thing was HUGE... Cassie seemed to have spun her entire web around it and then nothing happened... I don't remember where I saw it, but she had specifically mentioned the 12th of October... that was her downfall.

The creators, I'm sure, knew about the Egyptian calendar before doing all of this and planned this (maybe?) around then...

Unless OpAphid is somehow connected to the creators, she either researched the Egyptian calendar herself extensively or she avoided what happened to Cassie by shrewdly not posting a specific date and merely mentioning the ceremony itself.

Therefore either she was lucky or she researched this extensively.

I forget that people won't read things the way I mean them to... it makes sense in my head lol

What Cassie predicted (on Oct. 1, as I recall) was that her fate would come "eleven days" (Oct. 12). One thing that was being discussed casually in the IRC chat (and apologies to those of you who aren't on that, we aren't being as rigorous as we could be with updating the forum on chat stuff) was that Cassie's "fate" might actually have come to pass--she was passed over and "killed" when everyone decided her game was dead and went to play with OpAphid.

Cassie's most recent clue (the anagram poem) remains unsolved, and given that Cassie has historically been very reticent about giving new clues until the old ones are solved, we actually have no way to tell if she's really gone for good or not.

That's right -- Cassies last poem was never solved, at least not publicly.

Is anyone still working on that? I need to go look it up in the Wiki. It'll be my pet project until I get to leave work.
