just making sure in case you get the answer...:smile: :smile:
 
yea i think for this one we all need 2 brainstorm
 
Maybe the small grid is a pattern trying to show us the method to apply on the large grid (the path to follow). But... what are those capital letters in the source? :confused:

Just thinking out loud... I'm sure you have already thought about that.

the captial W and I since yesterday are small letters now.. or am I just weird

Are you saying that the capital letters in the source have been changed after you started this level? :confused: The "w" from "what", and the "i" from the first "is"?

Forget about it. It won't be of any help :smile:

lol. Hmm. So I guess I should just try and find a windy spot then. Red Herrings FTW

Maybe you're right, but the map didn't help me at all on that level.
 
((The map that Ffhut and Zarii let me borrow really helped me.. without those two, I'd still be mucking around lost in transylvania!))

*spreads her wings and yawns and finds a whole group of folks bent over, moving pieces of the puzzle on the floor...

Iggy is mumbling about threatning to find that elephant gun again...

Omi is turning around the smaller grid...

Zarii is pushing letters all over the place...

Speedy is.. massaging Iggy's shoulders?!

She puts a hand to her eyes and rubs them*

Maan.. the things you wake up to...

*crawls over next to Omi and Zarii*

Soo.. what've we got?
 
this riddle needs a fresh mind to start with so i better be off. I am too exhausted to think well now. i need some decent sleep. :zzz:
 
For 59,

<I've looked into the locations we've passed so far. Of those, the Town of Alba, Laruba Mansion, and Aljiba Cemetery have mention of wind, but not of the 'biting' variety.

I'm assuming one of these is where I need to go, and I'm looking at the map now. Of those, Laruba Mansion and Aljiba Cemetery don't appear to have a path east of them, so I'm assuming I need to poke around the Town of Alba.[/color]>

That being said, unless I'm off in that assumption, I just need to figure out how to take the east path from there.

Edit: Wait. Looking at the map... ,the mansion we have left to go to is the Brahm mansion... so where do I go east from to get closer to that? hmm...[/color]>

*giggles*

Talk about not messing with the Ferryman, let's not mess with The Riddler either!

*meeps*

Got it, on 60! :D

Well done! I solved it somehow different, using that "wind bites" clue. That is why I told you that you don't need the map. I didn't want to confuse you :smile:
 
yea..i memorize this game so the wind bites was what gave it away..i still remember a few things that might come in handy that ppl may have forgot

Thats what I'm not getting. There isn't any reference to wind in that area, after all. Unless I'm missing it big time.
 
*stares at #60*

*gradually tilts head sideways*

hmm. well, I could try all 2500 possible combinations of letters until I got one that worked... Theres a trick to this. I'll get it.
 
*uses her wings and flies up to the ceiling and sits on the rafters, swinging her legs and staring at everyone and the puzzle*

This is a toughy...
 
Ffut... chances are, we'll be here *grins and waves through the broken window*
 
I've still got nothing on 61.. how's it going for everybody else?
 
Someone come pants this old man so I can get by him while he's distracted!
 
Nu uh! He'll recognize me as soon as I come near!

I already nearly skewered him with a stake *glares at Omi* and kicked him in the shins. I'll be Ferryman food if I get anywhere near him!

*whimper*



So.. eight letter word to get us in...

@Zarii - or someone else - can you please answer my question? Thanks :smile:

what now?

... :rolleyes:
 
Yep, it used to be that W and I (the first letters of the sentences) were also capitalized (grammar and all, he probably just didn't realize it)... so they were made into the lower case letters, and that's the change.
