No descripton keys. Just simple letter substitution. Try small words first and go from there. Look back through this thread and there is a URL for a website that might help you. I used it. Made it rather easily with trial and error.

 		you gotta guess words the 1 letter words are not "i" they are always "a" so there is a big clue the 3 letter words are either the or and just guess if it comes out in jubberish then switch words out and try again it should make sense

 		Xmas To About 3 Hours Ago...
Good Puzzle i guess... if thats the hardest thing in the world then i guess i should work for the cia or something i give it a 7/10 the 200 price tag is a little to pricy if u have a brain, On the other hand if your a pleastly retarded pot smoker im conviced this will last you atleast 2 months.

Once i figure out how to host picks i will... Are the Sharper Image Isis easier than the ones from the uk?

pic maybe attached?

 		No picture there, mate. The US Isis and the UK Isis are the same puzzle, the only difference being TSI's puzzles are stamped 'THE SHARPER IMAGE' on the bottom while the UK version is stamped 'SONICWARP'

 		nearly there but stuck!
hello, I've reached the halfway stage as instructed by the clues. However after I get all of the bearings to stop rolling around and go silent the ball will still not unscrew. I cannot move the placentas a fraction of an inch. And im positive i still have ball 3 in play, and in place. Any tips would be greatly appreciated as this little orb is starting to drive me absolutely insane. HotmanautSPLATaol.com is where you can get me if you don't want to post megaspoilers

I've just finished an FAQ in the Timewasters forum. Why don't you check that out and see if it helps!

 		Moving balls
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
when you are at the halfway stage with the 3rd ball stuck do the other 2 ball bearings move around as mine seem to b stuck but you can hear them while you shake the isis

Cheers

 		Donz: Remember to let up some pressure on the plunger when you're trying to place the last two balls, and don't be afraid to swing it around when you rotate it.

I think the Sharper Image ones are harder. There are no markings on the solid non rotating surfaces. No placentas engraved on the ball, just on the rings. That makes it harder for sure. I just keep pushing the plunger, rotating, spinning, turning, beating on it and listening and I'm still only with the three balls being heard and I can silence them. From there, I'm brain dead. PM me if you want to assist me with the next clue or movement.

 		OK< so i know for sure i have 2 ball bearings but i am not sure if i have 3 or not....i can't tell......also how do you know how ot position you rings is there a word you must make or is it random or what....PLEASE HELP!!!

ALSO, i don't understand what the halfway stage is is that how you know your rings are in the right place...i mean in the clues it say to listen until the rings get quite but they are never completely quite when rotating

HHEEEELLLPPP!!!!!
