I just got my second mailing, and I’m pretty thrilled. Huge maps, lots of things to translate and explore. I’m hoping this all pays off and future wxperi need are as excellent.

I'm all over the place on this, anyone started work on the translations and want to talk about it?

My understanding is that Rise of the Cult and Search for the Forgotten Tomb are the last MPC Experiences by the old creative team. Everything from 2018 onward will be by an entirely new team.

I didn't know it was possible to be even more depressed about all this. >.<

Since so many things have been hit or miss, this might be a good thing, or it might be a worse thing.

I just completed the triangulations for this second mailing - this was quite fun! I'm a little confused about a bit of the handwritten text - seems hieratic, but it's been hard to find a decent primer.

I’m starting to try to translate the page of hieratic text- please let me know if you get anywhere in this. And PM me if you need any help with these puzzles.

Alright, since a couple people have asked, I'll put my nudge here. The long scraps of paper are related to: the back of the last page of the journal - do you see any drawings and notes there that might answer the question of how the knucklebone die and the long sheets might be related? Take a close look at the square sheets of 9x9 paper with a familiar hieroglyph in the center. Once you have figured out what to do with the long sheets, You'll have 12 strange symbols. do you recognize them from somewhere? Take a look at a circled symbol at the bottom of the large map. You are looking for a diagram on the back of the last page of the journal - Horus has the answer. Let me know via PM if you need a stronger nudge!

The map has some hieroglyphics on the right side. I’ve translated a few of them - but some are outstanding. 1,2,4,5,8,9 are recognizable Gods and Goddesses. 3 is a word of phrase, as is 10. Has anyone gotten further? I’ll post as I learn more. I’ve actually started learning to read Hieroglyphs just to translate these documents.

Just got my second mailing today. Definitely enjoying the puzzles in this one. Spent some time with a friend decoding the 12 things. That was thoroughly enjoyable. It was fun spreading things out and realizing how it all for together and what is was going to do. Next up is putting everything on the map. Taking a break for dinner, though. Stupid fleshy body and its needs.
