It looks like several folks are getting behind on yarns already. Don't get discouraged; it's ok to lower your standards and keep putting something out there on a regular schedule. I know I will appreciate reading whatever you have to get some flavor from the other nations.

Also, I'm really missing the maps and graphs from recent turns. It feels like a media blackout.

Keep up the good work folks! Make it fun, not like it's work.

You raise a good point Sillhouette. Tauren, can we get maps for turns 12 and 15? I'll grab the score graphs from turn 15 and have them posted later this evening.

P.S. Thanks for reading.

Hey PashaDawg,

Welcome back. I wrote part of my latest yarn just for you... the story is called "How Aetonyx Lost His Tail". Enjoy!

Turn 18

PS. I should also add that, in a deeper, more fundamental way, the yarn is really for Pythium.

Sounds like I have some good reading coming up!

Ugh! And, I better get off my duff and do some writing, too!

Sedna · #**305** July 22nd, 2005, 04:34 PM

Well, a day late, but not a dollar short. Here are the score graphs from turn 15.

Hopefully maps will come soon.

Sedna · #**306** July 24th, 2005, 01:05 AM

Courtesy of our fine host Tauren, there are now maps posted for turns 12 and 15. See the latest map here. Wonder no more who adjoins the provinces of your foe!

It's been 5.5 days now since the last turn. At some point we probably need to start hosting the turns even if one or two people stale (unless, of course, they've asked for a delay of game)

I'll send a shiny astral pearl to whoever can correctly guess the identities of the Archbishops.

Well, I finally had time to think about this...my guess is (rot13 so those who wish can work it out themselves):

Znev unf nfgeny zntvp (unq gb or gung be svrel zntvp), Nibpn vf sver (fgnaqf arne gur sver...), Fcver vf nve; gur rneguyl zntvpf: Nzveqba vf rnegu (gnhtug Rfpynir ("fynir"?) rnegu zntvp), Ryxynaq = j (zbirf dhvpxyl), Sberfg vf boivbhfyl angher; gur vasreanyf: Jvp pyrneyl vf n arpebznapre, naq guhf Cbytenir vf oybbq.

I will return the pearl if you will tell me (public or private) what Aftial is.

Thanks for playing. I feel bad not declaring you the winner. Your logic is quite reasonable, and it's only my twisted reasoning that prevents you from being completely correct. I guess I can say no more without ruining it for anyone else who might take a guess.

I never meant to make Aftial's physical form the object of suspense. After all, there is only one pretender form which the Church could possibly recognize as a servant of God.

Turn 12: "Myself, I was not sure about the Angel"

Turn 18: "I reached out to the angel, to Aftial"

Where by "angel", of course I mean the Virtue.

The deeper question of "what" she really is... well...

I can think of another configuration for the Three Above that makes sense. Is that where my errors were?
