What time does the ceremony start?
The others (during the weekday) came between 8:30 and 9:00...

Oh my gosh! It took me like two minutes to find today's clue! Hooray! And my guess for the title is still in the running.
Side note: when emailing the title, do we just do the title or do we have show the indiv. letters, as well?

You just email the book title and your username.

Yeah, my guess seems to be correct as well, though one more infrequently used letter would confirm it for sure... I fully expect that to be the letter that comes up on the last day though.

Or you can replace the image by some ascii art
What better place to hide a letter than in some old book upload? Of course, we don't want it to be so easy as extracting all images an and checking them only, so it better be done with SVG or just CSS... or put it in an image-based PDF, or... DRM it

Gaaah! Think I'm skipping this one Threads are too long to search from start to finish and I have no idea what constitutes a 'not usual' thread.

I don't even have a clue where to look... I can think of several fora which will fit the clue...

I only meant I was cosidering "ø" and "ö" the same letter, and "ë" and "è", etc.

Found it. One question: Are the letters supposed to be case sensitive?
