way to go reggie! let me know if you find anything when you reach 53. meanwhile, i am more stumped than ever! hahaha
 
  • #1,213
Well, I came back after a much too short weekend and saw the new hint in 44, which immediately solved it for me. :-p Now I'm working on 45. With any luck won't take me long.
 
  • #1,214
good, get it going so you can't help me on #53
 
  • #1,215
Hmm. Maybe I'm taking the wrong tack here on 45. Info follows.

<The immediate things that jumped out at me were the words "Everything is the key," and of course the picture "yellowiswhatwillsaveyou" Thinking back to the previous relic rooms, both had something to do with the something was typed in the address bar. Noting the answer from 44 that was of course still in the address bar, I went back to riddle 31 (20 past 11!) to look for any clues there, but failed to find anything yellow there, nor anything that got me any closer... [/color]>

Am I completely off the mark here?
 
  • #1,216
you are doing the right thing. remember when we had to figure out what the colors meant. At least for me that's how i got it.
 
  • #1,217

  • #1,219

  • #1,220
@53

any ideas? :rolleyes:
 
  • #1,221
Still on 45...

<I pretty much dead-ended looking at riddle 31 for clues. So I decided to focus on the other clue, "yellow is what will save you." Taking the most obvious route, I opened up each individual page from riddles 1-45. Turns out the only one with yellow in it is #38, Aljiba Woods; the first letter of the word Fury.[/color]>

I'm not exactly sure how to work this into the equation, and I feel like the answer should be so simple too... any hints here?

  • #1,227
Thanks for the help speedy. 46 was another really easy one. onto 47!
 
  • #1,228
47 wasn't too tough either. 48 now!
 
  • #1,229
Greg: what's your idea on 53? I'm completely stumped and about to call it a day.
 
  • #1,230
