I went back and played with the contrast- It does look like a Rx. I don't see the beads either.

Well, what is laying on the feathers? I know I see something. *rubs eye's* Yup. Still there.

Didnt we hear at one time, that we had not seen the last of Ravenhurst?

(I wish I could make out the picture of the 12-game gift)

I was just playing with it and I think we are going back to Ravenhurst. I can make out the stairs and a big house in the back

Yes, that's correct, prpldva.

The letter R... Ravenhurst?

The picture looks like the Home page of the MCF site.

Do we have a pharmacy in the Pond? I think my nerves are shot ... my flippers won't stop twitching ... I think, no, I know ... I need drugs! Or, maybe chocolate ... ok, I'll try chocolate and if that doesn't work... then, drugs. Ok, I think that's my plan.
..
.............** lumbers off muttering chocolate. need chocolate **

Hey Cesse, chocolate cures all ills. At least in my book, lol.

You fishies have been busy.....off to look at that picture again. I'm sold on Ravenhearst and Madame Fate for sure. Need to decide about the 1st 2 MCF games.....I did like them, they just aren't as good as the 2nd 2.

Now is that painting in the Bettmann Archive?

OMG's. Yes, I believe it is. Let me go online search to confirm that.

Was just going to ask that! Now this could be a clue about the game coming out in time for Thanksgiving OR a clue about how the game is going to be themed OR both?

Just found something that said, "The First Thanksgiving at Plymouth" by Jennie A. Brownscombe is actually in the Pilgrim Hall Museum, so that's a dead end as far as what they have in common, at least that aspect, as the painting is not in the Bettmann Archive.

The Archive, the more I read, is primarily photographic and historical in nature. Brownscombe was known for painting historic scenes. Curioser and curioser...

I have purchased 3 of the games recently as i am a fridge magnet collector. If I were to purchased a total of 6 games or more by the end of October, of which i may be eligible to get the BFG Mug, can i opt not to get the Mug but instead get the fridge magnet?

The best games where you can choose from I owe already.
And as a came club member I don't see any discounts for me here.

What I understand is that the Brownscombe painting is on loan to the Pilgrim Museum in Plymouth from the Bettman Archives.

I started replaying Ravenhearst last night and am looking at the game from a different viewpoint... clues to MCF5.

the Bettmann archive is primarily photographs and it does include one of this painting according to the search engine provided by the site.

Do you have to buy your games all at the same time with this promotion or do they just add up what you've bought from the list during the month for the coffee cup, etc? I own a lot of the games on the list but can always find more! Just can't buy 6 in one fell swoop

Diann

DIann, you can buy them throughout the month of October.

Reddevil -- not according to what I read in the info ... you will automatically be sent the item that corresponds to the total of purchases you made from the Octoberfest offerings. So, if you want the magnet, you must buy at least 3 but not more than 5.

I started replaying Ravenhearst last night and am looking at the game from a different viewpoint... clues to MCF5.

Smallhaven, I'll be calling on you as my "go to" woman for Ravenhearst questions if there are ties to the new game. PS--love the door puzzles in this one!!

I dug out my notes on this game and am replaying it very attentively now. I think before, I just played the game for the HO factor never considering that it may be the lead-in to another MCF.

Love the door puzzles, too! Some of the most challenging puzzles I've done in a game.

"This is not my home..."

Hope this is not going to give me fin slaps...if so I appologize...When i Googled MCF this is what was listed.

"Mystery Case Files: Huntsville Crime spree baffles Huntsville police! ... Get ready for an all new Mystery Case Files adventure coming in mid-November. ..."

Are you sure that's not an old article referring to the release of Huntsville?

It's very possible this was referring to an old article. Went back and Googled again and came up with the same info. Just wondering... if the is dangling more bait to the fishies is this wonderful pond Oooooh, just morphed to a Seahorse
