Don't be so negative Kd...we're all lost on the last one and your team should have enough time to solve almost all the puzzles b4 the metapuzzle is cracked

If I were a Texan, rather than just living here, right about now I'd be yelling YEEEE-HAWWW!.

Good work, guys.

Great competition, CV.

Really messes with one's sleeping patterns, though...

Like a slow-witted, but determined dog, I have decided not to give up on these puzzles just because the competition is over. However, I think I need some help.


I have solved 5, and have some ideas for the other three. Anyone like to help out.

* I think I need to search the HomeStar Runner site for the missing words from the sentences in number 3, but I cannot access the site. Anyone like to give me a list of the words.

* For the 11.35, 6.35 etc. one, I have converted to Semaphore to give a list of A, I, M and N s, but cannot do anything with it. Any chance of a gentle nudge in the right direction.

* Finally, for the last one, I think I have ten asnwers that are all 9 letters long, which I have arranged in 3x3 grids, but cannot see anything further. A gentle nudge or indeed forceful slap in the right direction would be appreciated.

I would appreciate any help. Alternatively just shoot me and put me out of my misery!

Read the intro to the puzzle again, there's a big hint in there. (You're definitely on the right track, and doing better than me. I had K instead of I for a while!)

1. but (16)
2. spectacle (41)
3. end (39)
4. simulator (14)
5. repair (26)
6. twice (43)
7. ones (32)
8. Apshai (4)
9. name (9)
10. acoustic (49)
11. much (34)
12. England (22)
13.
14.
15. not (59)
16. hairs (30)
17.
18. understand (55)
19. extra-credit (64)
20.

Shouldn't be too hard from here...

Thanks for that Lepton and Eixdeuce, another one down.
Thanks Mith Will re-read the intro for the semaphore.
Any hints on the 3x3 grids for the last one.

"Marked difference" is a pretty important phrase here.
