tower: not even sure how to begin this one.

off-site. Not the usual resource, though.

HTH.

game two? do you mean game three? Or puzzle two?

In a perfect game world everything would be either a clue or a red herring. Sometimes my world looks alot like that one (usually doesn’t last long though).

Am I correct that it is not the usual resource, but yet familiar?

Well I guess I’m not familiar with it all…

I’m starting to feel pretty humbled. I led so much of the way in game 2 but nothing is obvious to me in game 3…

Are you saying that there is a clue in the video?

I’ve tried several times to hit the link for google video, but for some reason IE is failing. Is that where the information is?

No it isn’t. Go back and read comment #12. Read it aloud. Two words in that sentence are important. Think webpage.

Check puzzle 2 source code (that’s the dig deep clue). Once you find what’s there look at info circled in red. It should help point you in the right direction. It still requires some work but it gives you most of what you need to get started. There is also a clue in the intro video to Game 3 but it isn’t really needed. More of a visual aid to make sure you’re in the right spot.

Computer literacy helps alot in Cluechaser games.

To view source code (in Internet Explorer anyway, I don’t know how to do it in any other software), when you are on the page click on View and choose Source Code. It opens up Notepad and shows you the source code (the html part of it anyway).

What about this?

I originally tried to identify the images in the intro video. Some of them are obvious while I couldn’t identify others. They may confirm some we need here.

I don’t know about all this talk about puzzle 2 but I was looking through the source for puzzle 4 and it suggests a way of mapping the answer.

I’m out of time for now but maybe that will spark some ideas.

Mrsmathteacher are you still out there?

Is this puzzle at all solvable without a PhD in computer science?

Append file names to the end of the url in your address line, one at a time.

Finally got Jack. Oh wait, that’s not the word, is it?

Simon Durry was the only tour guide I really needed. I just needed to follow in his footsteps.

I’m very happy that you guys (and gals) are sticking it out. Finishing the game will be important if you want to understand game 4. I plan to make knowlege of E’s story a requirement for solving the puzzles.

It seems like you’re already doing so, but I suggest you all work together. Two have finished all the puzzles, Southwest and plumbum/klaatu. Indiedezz is on puzzle 5 but stuck. The rest of you are on this puzzle or #3. You’re the type of puzzle solver this game was designed for so it would be a real shame if you didn’t finish it.

I put a lot of hints out recently to get some of you moving but I don’t want to keep doing that. I would like to drop out and just watch the fun unfold. I think you have enough info to proceed.

Seems puzzle 3 is always the hardest.

Good luck. A lot more interesting puzzles and more storyline await you……

I’m stuck for inexplicable reasons. I am at the point where I can see the street lantern, is a password nearby or do I continue on. And, in continuing, I don’t have enough steps in the right compass directions to follow the trail. Any ideas?

I had some luck removing e from the street name.

Try moving a step back or forward. That intersection is kind of tricky.

nope. I can tell you that you don’t have to go off the path to find the items. You just may have a little trouble finding some of them.

go in the direction of the landmark.

Past the lantern on map (3rd landmark) to the rental sign (4th) but haven’t seen a school board.

I think I’m bad at following directions in a new city because I’m tempted to cut down the alley when I know I should probably just keep on to the busy intersection.

I feel like a peeping tom looking for an open window.

Whoo hooo. Finally one I didn’t need any help with..

dante1 - just the name itself

look around……closely

Glad to see that there is at least one person back here with me. I haven’t been able to work on this since Sunday, but I’d like to try to catch up a little.

On my treasure quest, I’m wondering how good the doctor’s sense of scale was?

I’ve made it to the rental sign, but I can’t find a window to look out of. I’ve tried both turning the corner at the sign (which seems what the map indicates) and going passed it.

I haven’t seen the school board sign, but I thought perhaps I should map my route and then look for the remaining answers.

The turns do actually match the landmarks.
The trick is to find the same ‘perspective’.

Some ‘clues’ need to be looked at ‘closely’ to reaveal an answer.

Maybe I had the wrong cartoon after all, maybe it was more like Blue’s Clues?

dante1, I went by the image you need because I hurried early on and went right by it.

I’ve finally answered all of the questions, but I’m still puzzled by the footsteps. Going from the lantern to the “For Lease” sign takes you in a direction that is very different from the direction implied by the footsteps.

If you find the window go straight past it. There is an answer on the right between the window and the grafitti landmarks.

There is also one again on the right before you get to the Lease sign.

you may have to look ‘closely’ for both of these.

The last one is tricky if you don’t look ‘around’
