Puzzle 2, or Stage 2? If Puzzle 2, you use it during Puzzle 4.

 Stage 2 is clearly marked as being such, both in your browser's title bar and on the page itself.

Is there no one else who can/want solve the puzzles???


Ron wrote on Sun, 22 May 2011 07:07

I thought for sure there would be several that would be able to make it through.


Darnit, we don't have posting rights to reply to his bragging (well-deserved though it may be..)

Anyways, I got the famous word, but I have a few problems with parts of the clue that got me the answer !! meh.

I'll try the next part over the weekend..

I am surprised no one else is trying though.. or atleast griping about it (without giving away clues/answers).

 Hmm... while writing out the path I had taken last time, I managed to solve the next puzzle.
Pretty stupid that I wasn't able to solve that earlier.

I'm now on puzzle 6/#34.

I'll check it tmrw.

Btw, I've already answered puzzle 4 and puzzle 2, but I just had a different way of thinking about it, the 1st time around.

Nmid.

Can you tell us how many stages/puzzles are there.. if that doesn't reveal any clues/answers.
Atleast I'll know how much % have I completed Smile

ps - Anyone else trying it out?

 There are 3 stages, each stage is shorter than the last, and each was supposed to be harder than earlier ones.

 Is it really that hard, or is it that nobody cares about it?
