I'm almost certain that the final book will not be called The Vicious Victory because he has already used the VV combination for The Vile Village.

In the VFD meeting transcript in the Autobio, someone mentions an old VFD headquarters with two round towers. That building, or a building disguised as it--you never know--is shown in a photo after the transcript. I speculate that in book 12 the VFDers will return to those towers, which will burn and/or tumble.

It's on page 44 of the autobiography. "J" is talking about past headquarters, and he speaks of the "building with the two round towers, in a neighborhood so foggy that all of our sunflowers died and we had to discontinue that particular experiment." I have to wonder why VFD was experimenting on sunflowers. Crows eat sunflower seeds, I guess.

There were probably using the sunflowers as a roosting place for the carrier crows. <shrug>

Did Judge Justice grow sunflowers in her pot plants? R the towers those of Count Olaf's in the back yard?

I donno about the 12th book yet, let me examine the 11th first, okay. But if u look at the back page (Brett's illustation) of every book, u'll find a clue, hidden in the picture, relating to the next book. Like, if u look at the illustration at the back of TSS, u'll see mushrooms, with has a relation to TGG, or in TCC, at the back is a picture of the caravan, and a booklet titled 'Snow Scouts' am I just paranoid, or is there a relation? Wait and see the illustration at the back of TGG and then I might give out a few clues...

Yes I know about the illustrations. In the 1st one there's a snake for the rr. In trr there's someone with a shirt saying Lachrymose leeches, in tww there's a glasses shape on an arch and so on.

I think you guys should give him a break he is obviously still a bit new to 667 Dark Avenue. Hey! I have an idea why don't we have a board where we establish all the rules so that everyone knows what to do? What do you say? When Dong comes back we can turn Glaring Globals to something like Constant Conduct or something like that.
