Fragment 14: OBSCURIOTEMPUS FOUND

So Unowl sent a message to toad, then toad to mouse and mouse to cat. This is beginning to feel like Chinese whispers.

Random morning idea. We seem to have a fixed set of numbers do far, 3 4 5 6 8 9. Also they seem to form a repeating pattern with variations.

I think this is a rhyme scheme we are building. Just instead of AABCBC it’s 445656 etc.

The question is what poem is the rhyme scheme for?

Just reposting this as it looks like it might be needed again

A grieving air is what must be made.

Is there a dirge out there for this pattern. Or must we create it. Interesting. Of course I could be way off. First let’s get the last set.

It should be the numbers under “riddle round three” on that google doc, I think

Umm I just read the doc, is this all we need?

My thinking here is that maybe we only have a total of 32 updates to change things

I don’t know if we had been discussing sending something with the numbers. Or formatting them as a poem/rhyme.

We (probably?) have a couple hours left, but we should decide as soon as possible what we want to send. Is our resident poet @pandaboye available for a rhyme?

If no one else is available…maybe try this?

“The number order that you seek
Only needs a little tweak.
6, 9, 3, 4, you do have straight;
The next four, though, are 5, 8, 8, 8
Apologies if we misspake,
We hope you’ll pardon the mistake!
And if there’s only one more set
Don’t lose hope; we’ll finish yet!
Each piece is one more step we’ve took
To save our friends and free the Book.”
