Abandoned?

It appears that everyone has giving up on the Maddy puzzles. Especially in light of all the new puzzles in LG15. It has seemed we have come to a stand still. I know I have given up.

It just sux because I really wanted to know the answers damnit!!!

Oh well I guess we will never know.

I think the problem is that we don't know where to look for the clues we need to solve the puzzles. Jeromy said we had enough info to solve them already, so obviously the clues are there, but no one can find them. At this point, I think if we want to solve them, we'll need some kind of PM nudge towards one of the necessary clues. Not a big neon sign, but just a little "wink wink, nudge nudge" type of thing.

I am tired of hitting my head against the wall. There is no good way to check your answers if you get them. "That could be it, but how do I know for sure." We need the answers yes but hopefully when Zipp rears his head again things may be more clear.

I am still going to work on them even though I do not post.

This is a good observation Gid, and largely why I haven't gotten invovled in this ARG. You can speculate until you're blue in the face, but there is no way to check your work. It would be nice if there was a way to converse with Mr. Zipp (or someone who can converse with him) to receive confirmation on puzzle solves.

For puzzles that were supposed to be so easy.... its pretty bad that some of the best puzzle solvers just cant get it. Sure a puzzle is easy for the creator of it AND the person whos knows his way of thinking.
I just think at this point everyone is frustrated and feels like beating a dead horse here.

SOmetimes when a painter knows his/her painting is missing something but just can't figure out what it is, they have to step away and come back at a later time. If the painting doesnt "speak" to the artist, it may never be finished.

I'll end by saying that I think you all have been amazing with trying to solve this. I wish I were #1, in the US and #2, a more intelligent person so i could be more productive.

Good Job and Good Luck!

Jeromy - love your game. You have created very engaging characters, puzzles and storyline, but how do we confirm our solves?

I agree, I don't like to post too much unless I feel like I'm contributing. However, it is difficult to know if we are on the right track or not. These puzzles can be interpreted in a million different ways so it's tricky finding when we are on the right track.
