So its still buging me, and i havent foudn ti anywhere (unless its roman numerals for 8), has anyone worked out what it is, or what meaning it could have, I cant see mata just choseing any old sign for no reason..

Im still not sure if the second I and the X join as one or not either..
whats everyones thoughs

I think it's a wiccan symbol but I really don't know.

Coyote Max, an occasional visitor here, uses a very similar symbol for their avatar and his/her linked website is very much a wiccan site.
JimiJimi
I always thought roman numeral 8 was VIII and that that symbol was roman numeral twelve XII.

I don't know - but this is a case for only one man... Mr Mata!

But first we need to wait for him to come to this thread. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

12 is indeed XII, but IIX is 8, in teh same way that XI is 11 but IX is 9, a low roman numeral before a highone indicates that you take the low away from the high.
MrTeapot
Not to be really picky but you can only take one value away from the higher one (ie IX not IIX).

So 8 is VIII.

Edit: However the symbol is a part of a piece of artwork, which is never going to be all straight lines and 90 degree angles. So perhaps there is a reason, but no one will ever know...
Mata
You're mostly way off the mark at the moment.



I know what it means, but then again I would do considering I made it up. It does have a meaning, and 'no' I'm not going to explain it yet, it would give away too much (although the things that it would give away are pretty obvious I think).
CommieBastard
I am guessing this is not it but it looks kind of like the Dead Kennedys logo.
depressed lonely crazy person
if you spin it looks like a sign of some kind.....look out for stuff falling on picnic tables maybe???
Mata
DLCP has got it right with my alternative reading of the symbol. It either means what I think it does _or_ it's a picnic table on its side. Or maybe it's the symbol of a secret cult that really hates picnics?
Novander
Well, its not a very secret cult anymore, is it. If I were you, I'd watch my back, because we're they're probably coming to get you now.
MrTeapot
Agenda for next week: All Cult members are invited to the bring and share picnic next thursday. Please Maureen, no more Chilli Rice this time.

Ive got it!
It meens mata is an evil poohead tongue.gif
Don'tMakeMeBiteYou
Hmm... This might be the twelve years of Catholic school education talking, but if you glance at that symbol, it looks like a Ichthus (Jesus fish) with the head chopped off.

Although it may also mean that Mata is an evil poohead.
candice
It looks like a rune to me...though not one I can find.

Hmmmmmmmm...

From waht ive been taught that is only a matter of preferance, orignaly VIII was preferd but IIX was acceptable, Inm pritty sure ive seen IIX in some orignal bits hear and there..

now, i too shall start a new sig.cult.. BEHOLD!!
Mata
Behold! A cult with a sig that's far too long! Chop it down a bit could you please? And hosting the image on your own server would be nice too smile.gif

Don'tMakeMeBiteYou is definitely heading in the right direction...
Hobbes
I'm guessing, because I don't really know for sure, but...

The flat-headed-fish part of the symbol also appears in a symbol representing the devil ("The Sigil of Lucifer"). So my assumption is that it represents Satan ? It isn't quite the same symbol, as the 'Sigil of Lucifer' has an extra bit on it. But the connection is there.

To me, Mata's symbol says, "I Lucifer".
Mata
Interesting theory, but why would Lucifer be trying to kill Sarah?
Hobbes
I don't know; it's your twisted mind! biggrin.gif
Feyliya
All I'd like to say is thank you Mata for not cheesing out and using a pentagram.
Mata
No chance of that happening. I've got plans for where this is all going and I needed a symbol that represented precisely what I wanted it to, and the pentagram has its own meaning which is inappropriate for my needs.
saucy_tara
It looks a bit like a side on view of a dissected eyeball... Or maybe I'm just odd smile.gif
Mata
Ooo, I suppose it does. Maybe I'm odd too smile.gif
CheeseMoose
I see it as well and I'm extreamly odd if that helps

So, picnic table + fish + eyball = picnic table for fish eye eaters only?
El Nino
I reckon it's a countdown. I'm not sure what it's counting down to though.
Sir Psycho Sexy
...Christian cultists?
Mata
What do we need a countdown to them for? They're already here! biggrin.gif

::turns head sideways and squints:: Wait... Now it looks like a squished teepee that's levitating about six inches off of the ground! Encased in a globe!

Who said that Lucifer was the one using it? It seems to me (and I'll admit that I could be off my rocker) that the symbol could be used, and might even be more likely used, to call or summon him. And bearing in mind Sarah's relation to him, it would seem reasonable that the symbol (which in this instance may be modified, as indicated by Hobbes) could also be used as a tool for summoning her.

just a thought...
Mata
We've seen that it can work that way, but that doesn't really tell us what it means smile.gif

What i want to know is how i can summon my own lgg right in the comfort of my own home,a nd when you will be selling said kits?
zivane
It definitely looks like a Jesus fish that's run into something and is bouncing backwards from it, like a cartoon... but that's just me. No feet, so it's not a Darwin fish!

Just place some eyeliner under a net, and when lgg skips over to it, pull the net down onto her head.
