Wow, Nothing yet? I know I personally got blindsided by midterms, but, nobody's come up with anything more concrete yet?

Yeah, really. People have dropped $35-50 on this thing and then let it slide? Is it really boring, or difficult, or what?

I was/am curious about this one, but I'm also looking at that limpotrade thing now.

 ARG - ARGH!

Okay - Im new to these args, and Im coming up empty on lots of these.

All I can figure out is to go down the rabbit hole you need a name and a drink?

The clue in the bulletin board about finding the horse leads me to this....

The quote "take a peak" - leads me to think that we're talking about a mountain... everest?

Looking at the picture of the horse, makes me think of a chess knight. Knight?

Doesn't the cross in the "learn to unlearn" look like a knight of malta symbol?

Also beneath the face of the man in the picture of the horse is the world Antigua. Antigua is an island - but not in the south china sea - in the carribean(spelling?)

Beneath that word is the quote "in a holy city, a man stands alone"

A holy city could be "St John" in Antigua. But Im not sure where to go from here.

Also have no idea what the numbers 7,8,9,38,51 mean.

I feel Im slowly slipping into the madness the book's title talks about.

Whoever this Gary Garner guy is, he sure hangs out with some pretty interesting people.

Reaching

I know this is far reaching, but is anyone still working on this? I've started to look into it again after a year or so but haven't found anything new online.
Has anyone else found The Secret Way? I've figured out one of the codes but haven't gotten much further.

 Hoping for Adventure

I'm so excited! Gary Garner is back in action, doing a Vagabond Virtues art show next month and actively promoting his book again! Maybe that will get more people interested in the puzzle again.
I've told myself several times that I'm going to start posting on here (as long as no one minds) with the things I know or think. A few of the forums I've been too are so secretive. Gary pretty much states in the book that teamwork will probably get you farther. So, I guess here is what I've got so far. (Not sure if I should use spoilers, so I will to be on the safe side)

Here's what I know:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
-The code on the first inside page is based on two numbers for one letter
-The code in the prologue with the boat has to do with counting letters
-Part of the code has to do with errors (ie. Spelling, word usage, random capitals, etc) as evidenced by his myspace -> http://www.myspace.com/gdgarner/photos/4076670
-The Mind Pickle clue has to do with one of the pictures in the book
-I haven't figured out the ladies clue yet, but I think it's just a matter of finding the right picture


And here is what I think might be the case:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
-I think the clues about the horse (THE HORSE AND HIS HABIT WILL LEAD YOU TO THE RABBIT and The horse will speak her name as he launches this collosal game.) are talking about the horse picture towards the end, on the pink/red page starting with Lady Liberty holds a key
-I think the clues on the website (H3 1-1 Madman's dream) refers to the gates in the website, probably the top box. I don't know what you need for the bottom box though
-Someone said they figured out the rabbit hole using the statue of liberty, one of the reasons I think the horse picture referring to her has to do with something. You aren't supposed to need the book for the rabbit hole, however.


I'm working on making an excel sheet with all the information I have so far, ie. the website H pictures, guestbook posts, book codes, etc.

This thing launched over 4 years ago? I found a poem on the website which states, "Every third year / Adds a new peer / Time released code / Controls method and mode," whatever that means. I hadn't looked at this in a while, but i did have it on a long-term wish list to buy the book one day. Thank you for reminding me it still exists.

Are there any spelling gurus with the book out there? One of the codes that he shows on his myspace page has to deal with misspellings, wrong capitalization, double words, missing words, and incorrect use. I'm rereading through the whole thing again before I start trying to find mistakes, although with planning my wedding in July I don't have too much time to work on it.
After reading through the webpage again and making notes, he mentions that there are visual and mathematical secret codes. He says there is a real code and a real lost secret, along with physical clues on each of the seven continents. There are multiple layers (rabbit hole, gates) along with the virtual componts of the website (text, artwork, etc.). He also mentions that the website is a place "where readers can collaborate to decipher clues, unlock new chapters and extend the book beyond it's pages once read."
The bulletin board has gone down recently and hasn't come back up, and I'm not sure what's going on with that. I'm not sure the bulletin board is what he's talking about when he mentions the place. I think there might be some sort of actual forum where people can collaborate once you get the rabbit hole clue, although I'm not 100% sure since I don't know of anyone who's cracked it that I can talk to.
I don't know what mathematical code is in the book, although there are some numbers with zeros beside them that might have something to do with it. I also think the page with all the cards talking about Gigi's game is a math code. I'm not sure what to think of all the dates he has in the book. I don't know if they're just there to be part of the journals or if they have some other meaning.
