Well THIS is interesting! The final clue was posted on the guild board, I'm guessing, but not on the yahoo board, yet Rue (and I and some others) saw it because it was posted to the council board (I'm assuming by mistake! Billy must have picked the wrong address to send to!)
So I was waiting for the last clue to be posted to yahoo before putting it here and seeing what I could work out, but now I see Billy's already posted the answer and exlanation on the guild board and considered it all done?
Here's the final clue:
billy
after you solve this, email me at billydakid@neomail.com do NOT I
repeat do NOT post the answer on the board. Solving correctly is not
neccesary, but I would like everyone to have a chance to figure it out.
You already have all the info you need
final clue
19-2-3-10-12-1-6-8-11-18-7-3-17-5-9-12-14-15
good luck
and here's billy's post which I'm going to put in WHITE for those who don't want the thing spoiled just yet!

03/15/2007 " here is it, laid out, may take several posts "
the rules were, to give you the rules of the game, to amuse, and to give the first of the clues to you. Rule #8 was the first hint being *The missing word is always best*
clue #1 given
On some council members accounts (links are here) are neohomes. It is most important to note that home is where the heart shaped window is.
the two homes were mine and fawn's
the next few clues until number 7 allowed you to eliminate a few accounts, albeit not many. Except the crest clue, which was just for fun
clue #7 told you to find the number of his name. His name was the name of the account, which was of course, all numbers
clue #8 told you how to find it, by taking the 2 addresses you had (mine and fawns) and multipliying them together. 69291 x 59449 which comes up with 4119280659. This is the secret account. No other information was given, but many of you thought you found something on the pet page It was simply a test I was doing on changing font sizes and colors and seeing if I could hide it in massive text. Then the final clue was
the number order of the words on the pet description. The missing number in the sequence was 16, which of course is the word best. I hope this clears it up and that you all had fun with it
