[HELP REQUESTS] Miscellaneous Requests

Sad I can't get my flash media player to work, once I type in sea in the solution card a man speaks, then it goes no where. Please help me with this if anybody knows how.

EDIT: Split from stickied "Quick Reference" thread, since it didn't really fit there, and given its own thread; please post similar requests for technical help here. --Phaedra

THREE threads for the same question? And another copy of same in the rules discussion thread? I vote merge, lock.

"guesty" you can't make anyone do anything. And pestering just makes it worse. And learn to spell. Jeez.

Agreed, Aliendial.

"Guesty," if people want to answer your question, they will. If they don't, all posting multiple topics does is annoy the heck out of the moderators. And you wouldn't want to do that, now would you?

Did I miss a Step?

Started the game over the weekend and worked hard to catch up... and now that I have, I was looking over past posts and I came upon some mention of a clue whose answer was COLLECT. I never got this clue, nor did I ever encounter a point where the game asked me for this clue.

When I first registered for the game, I got an email regarding the dice rolling twelve thing... which I figured out... this took me to locating Burmuda, which I did and then caught the wine bottle, and then onto the Island where I had to dig up the wine bottle which then took me to Madiera where I went through the wine cellar... (I thought pirates were more about rum than wine...)...and so forth.

So far, I've received 3 clue emails:
One with the dice rolling to twelve (Intro, rec'd 6/1Cool
One about the tentacles (#4 rec'd in 6/19)
One with the wind and the needle...(#5 rec'd 6/21)

And it didn't seem I needed to answer the tentacles riddle to enter the levels with the trees (Ile St. Marie?)... because I went right into the level without having to enter that answer either... am I doing something wrong? Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

treasure map questions

can anyone explain how the following is used to find the clue word = bats?

clue:

where equally the winds collide
the needle is our only guide

i understand the second line AND how to get the compass to point to the word BATS...it's the first line that's got me wondering.

any help would be appreciated. thanks

EDIT - merged new topic to pre-existing Questions topic to reduce forum clutter. - SG

Well, if you're at the center of a smallish island and two winds from opposite sides, rushing toward you at the same time and speed, will hit you equally... in the center of said island. Yeah, sure. That's it. That's that ticket...

So far, we have not had to email anything back to Volvo (the email I've seen so far explicitly stated not to reply to it). As such, I think you are okay. If you are at Mas a Tierras, you're in good shape.

It sounds like there is a problem with ur plugins!

Best thing to do is to download the newest version Flash player and Shockwave player from the Macromedia website!

That should solve it!

I don't honestly think we need to e-mail ne thing!

I think there was a problem with the wording when reading the rules! And so i think it was meant to mean that the solutions to each riddle should be entered on the solution card!

Finally we will propably have to e-mail in the answer at the end!
