Remember, remember the fifth of november?

Hmmmmm.

What could this be?

A riddle? Something new for ATS?

Anyone have any idea what the new message at the top of the forum pages could be?

Maybe a new game?

It seems to relate to Guy Fawkes Night and is a nursery rhyme of some sort. Not sure what it has to do with current events if anything, going to look into it a bit.

this was an interesting bit on Fawkes:

Guy Fawkes, notorious English traitor, is commemorated on this day for his failed attempt to blow up Parliament. From a Guy Fawkes website:

To carry out their plan, the conspirators got hold of 36 barrels of gunpowder - and stored it in a cellar, just under the House of Lords.

But as the group worked on the plot, it became clear that some innocent people would be hurt or killed in the attack. Some of the plotters started having second thoughts. One of the group members even sent an anonymous letter warning his friend, Lord Monteagle, to stay away from the Parliament on November 5th. Was the letter real?

The warning letter reached the King, and the King's forces made plans to stop the conspirators.

Guy Fawkes, who was in the cellar of the parliament with the 36 barrels of gunpowder when the authorities stormed it in the early hours of November 5th, was caught, tortured and executed.

Probably nothing to do with the ATS banner.

Uh oh, I feel another OCD attack coming on......
