I e-mailed Violet the solution (I hope it's correct!), and got this response:

Violet Kiteway is not answering her keymail right now. There's a small possibility she's travelled through a hole in the spacetime continuum to a new world, but it's more likely she's just asleep.

If you can't wait that long to hear her voice or read her words, go to http://www.violetunderground.com/ for a quick fix.

Hope I got it right. Here's a key to the plans if you need a hint:

So is e-mailing Violet the only way to submit the answer? I tried a minute ago and got the same reply.

What a labyrinth of pipes! Personally I think the plumber should be fired! But I like this puzzle...

Anyway, am I correct in deducing Violet's flat is:

lizziec, I plugged through this one with pen and paper, and I got the same answer as you. I have no idea how to verify if it's correct, but I think we're right.

The weird thing is that I live in an apartment building with a layout nearly identical to Violet's! We have 14 apartments -- 2 in the basement and 4 on each of the three floors above it. Our numbering scheme is slightly different, though... and I hope our plumbing isn't nearly as convoluted!

Gah, how do we always end up with two threads? Anywho, the other thread in General/Updates

Whoops. We are quite skilled at the whole 'two threads about the same thing' aren't we? It has been a while to be fair. Maybe next time it happens we should jump on it straight away and point to the puzzle thread, directing all puzzle discussion to there. We do have this section for puzzles so best to keep it clean and tidy I guess.

I agree. I think the threads about this sort of thing should be in the puzzles section. It's where I first thought of looking for the discussion about this!

Tbh it always happens, even when we direct people to a puzzle forum thread one or two people will still post puzzle answers in the general section. I will just whip up a post in the general section saying that puzzles will be here, see if it helps.
