Well, if he really solved the puzzle and made the call, it will be no problem for him to give us hints or the (spoilered) solution. In this case, my congratulations to Lenny.
Or, if he haven't actually solved shit, he will not tell us anything, and we'll know he's either a troll, or a weird kind of sociopath misteriously landed on this forum.

is the game still on? I've gotta say I'm not so sure about this winning streak.
The terms and conditions state 4. The first participant to solve the final puzzle will win the prize.
I think (trout me if wrong) that this is the first time we've seen the full t's & c's, so I think this is the final puzzle.

That's a nasty thing to do Lenny!
I nominate you for the golden trout award!
I don't think many forum members will appreciate your little "joke".

Well on to more pressing matters.
I was wondering if anyone has been reading through the works of JW Goethe to see if any of it yields any clues?
I'm trawling through Faust at the minute and I'll tell you it's pretty slow going, however I did also stumble upon a play by Goethe entitled "Stella" (slight co-incidence?) has anyone managed to find a transcript of this to see if it also has any clues in it?

lenny, i knew it from the first post you made.
i didn't diss you. i just called you a liar, which is what you have admitted to being.
lets try and keep this forum more constructive, shall we?

that is far too much of a coincidence for my liking...surely there must be something in that play! i'm trying to trawl up a copy now, see what i find.
------------------------------
btw... lenny you are a muppet. not a very constructive comment i know, but neither was your pitiful subterfuge. also, how exactly did you think that would put us off? i for one know that even if/when someone else comes up with a solution i'm goin to want to know about it and probably even try it myself, just for the sense of satisfaction!

I've only managed to find a transcript in German so far.
I could not find anything of interest with my little knowledge of German... A good thing in German is the capitalisation of nouns - which should have made it easier to stop tridents and black dogs and butterflies if they had appeared in the text. I really don't think they did at all.
Anyone with better knowledge of German welcome to give it a go!

A quick question: Do I really have to re-take the soul-worth test (and submit 3 friends) each and every time I want to try and solve the puzzle?
