it does say "glue both two", if you didn't glue them together then they'd be two seperate words.

Four corners framed in all that's blue
At tentacles' ends, do glue both two

Just received this earlier. I have tried this despite already getting to the end of round 1 but I cannot get the answer. I think it is Circle as shown in my graphic?[img][/img]

Aye Mates,

Notice on the Island Map. As we progress with the hunt, the tracking is encircling the island. The way I figure it, we will be ending up at the MANMADE HOLE. ALso notice as we are circling the island on this map, we are actually circling the world. If we end up at the manmade hole, we will be NNE of our original starting point--hhhmmm

So, after entering the 4 blue corners code word into the solution card
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
roundcircle


I get the World Map, with the comment that we are to "Use this solution on the Corresponding Location somewhere in the Seven Seas."

It also asks if we remember the last location we visited... Pulau Jong was the last place we visit prior to this E-mail. Perhaps the opportunity to solve this puzzle comes after the 21st....

Such a great game so far!

Driven....

if you are having problems with the tentacles then keep your mouse clicked on the card when you have the card positioned where it should be, then it will make sense. On my browser the tentacles will not 'do their thing' unless I keep the mouse clicked. hope that helps

Re: Section I Hints

Here are some successive hints to the various puzzles so far; each hint should be a little more specific than the one previous to it. Far be it from me to tell you how to use these clues, [...]


If you're writing up an official walkthrough, I'd recommend adding in the email clues and game hints. You've mentioned some, but not the detail of how to figure them out.


Port Royal
Email Clue:
Roll the dice until they're twelve
Our destiny reveals itself
Method:
roll both dice until they each show 6 on the face
outlined word is answer
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
SEA


Tropic of Cancer 20°42'N 28°40'W
Hint:
Follow the stream from shore to source
The Skull reveals the secret course
Method:
Skull card reveals hidden letters on The Hunt map
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
COLLECT


Saint Helena 15°55'S 05°42'W
Email clue:
The key ring round the biggest rock
Point west and catch the port we dock
Method:
place key ring over Costa's Rock on The Hunt map
pointing west, the word is inside the key
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
COUNT


Isle the Saint Mary 17°06'S 49°48'E
Hint:
Four corners framed in all that's blue
At tentacles' ends, do glue both two
Method:
rotate the Davy Jones card 90 degrees and place each corner at the word "blue" on The Hunt map
(Blue Mountain, Blue Bay, Blue Tree, Point Blue)
tentacle beard points to answer
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ROUNDCIRCLE


Sadly, I just now received email #4 with the Saint Mary clue in it:
Code:

edit:typos in hints
edit:XML says "roundcircle" instead of "circle"
