The Couberteam

Starting on May 16, several players received emails from a "Pierre de Coubertine", aka 'Couberteam' (thecouberteam@gmail.com).
The term "Couberteam" appears to refer to Pierre de Coubertin (1863-1937), well known as the founder of the International Olympic Committee and allegedly the person to whom The Lost Rings were dedicated.

The Couberteam was a playermade group initiated by Monica that tried to uncover Theo members, by pretending to have important information (Monica's postcards. Which then has been stolen by her housemaid, which has beeen suspected to be a Theo member. The couberteam was a secret organisation which led to some confusion (see unfiction thread. Now it seems that this part of the story has no relevance anymore
