wheeeeeee! I think I love setting these as much as I love having a go at answering them. Ok, what card am I ? Can you see me? We sneer at the Devil, the three wands and I Death is behind me. Allison

Thinking..I was thinking hanged man..but no...Hmmm...maybe the sun..but still...ugh i am not good at this game.

allibee	06 May 2003
Have faith Redwood, only another 75 to have a go, at forget what you just wrote and start over....... Allison

So i was thinking..yeah i have my moments... so I am trying to picture the sneering etc.. i came up with the Knight of Swords.. one..this is someone who would be a bit cocky..I am better then you..(not all the time..depending on spread etc etc) So this guy is cocky and smart. He is always on the move..the 3 of wands to me..is sometimes a journey card..you are taking a journey..So this Knight is moving.. while Death is always behind him. waiting to strike. Or letting that Knight know he is there. Far off?

For a first attempt: Judgement? :) Macavity

Nope, nope, and nope, in that order, me thinks you're finding it difficult to focus, so here's another clue: My first is in aircraft, but not in bird ..... Allison

Dark Eyes	06 May 2003
It has to be an Ace, but which one? Possibly the ace of wands? I don't know why really, it's to do with first in Aircraft ? Long shot. :)

allibee	06 May 2003
... my second is in freedom, but not in a herd, my third is in possibilities, but never in fear My last is in world, whose call I hear ...... Well, I must go to bed now so I can get a fresh start of the frivolity tomorrow :O) Allison

RedWood	06 May 2003

Yaayyy, Kazz got it ... The Fool Quote: Originally posted by allibee Can you see me? We sneer at the Devil, the three wands and I Death is behind me. The Devil has no faith and only offers oppression to the Fool who has no need for emotional baggage, and the 3 of Wands is a reinforcing card for the Fool as they both set off into unchartered territory, and beyond Death there is a new beginning, a fresh start. I can see where some got your initial guesses from. I thought the only really cryptic clue was in 'can you see me' In some decks the Fool is 0 = Nothing = you can't see 'nothing' My replies to you all were laced with clues too: Have faith ........ only another 75 to have a go,(journeying through the deck) ..........start over.......finding it difficult to focus.........freedom........possibilities......never in fear.......world, whose call I hear .........fresh start ........frivolity Oh, I'm sad if you didn't enjoy this puzzle, but I wanted to use the opportunity for us to spend time with the Fool who gets typecast far too easily :O) Over to you Kazz......

Allibee: I thought the clues you gave were brilliant! I am no good with cryptic stuff, so I think you're a genius for creating such amazing clues there! Kiama
