without the 3rd bb in the Isis, you will never get the plunger down only halfway.
the only thing that would work is that trick, and i dont know why it would work before and not now,
maybe just keep trying because it is your only hope of getting your Isis open.

TSI Gone!!

For all of us in the U.S. with the puzzles, The Sharper Image is out of business! They went bankrupt. I wonder what happens if you tried to register your Isis now; guess its too late to win any prizes. The site is still up though.

Re: Isis
Help!

Hi,

I just received an Isis for my Birthday but I have no idea where to start or about clues or anything. Please could you offer me some advice on where to start.

I don't have much time to play around with it as I work long hours but when I do spend some time on it I want it to be constructive.

I would appreciate any advice from you.

you should look through this thread, basically everything you need to know about the Isis is here, including the deciphered clues.

Please just look through the thread before you post your questions. Thanks

Once you open it and understand the internals of the puzzle, it's really easy to open and reset. I open and reset mine everyday, just for grins and to keep my hands in shape.

No, thats not why its magnetic
that whole "northwards" thing is a load of bullcrap.
it doesnt matter which way the plunger is facing. But the Isis needs to be plunger-side up in order to get to halfway.

DOes anybody have any ideas for the two March USA free ISIS lues? They are as follows:

"Seek out the Lakota tribe and discover god,
where the sheep graze in the meadow."

"They often go with cream, but not in this field,
the root of the problem is above your head."

Ideas anyone?

ISIS SOLVED
HOW TO SOLVE ISIS

Very Happy

Did it at last watch out for the spelling mistake on clue 6 it should read as follows:
Lkkb bokeeyiv qjk bcrivko riqyc yq uycc gicm fkbokee
ecyvjqcm, qjye uycc yifyphqk qjhq mgr jhtk
erppkeezrccm okhpjkf qjk jhczuhm eqhvk

try this web site to solve an encrypted puzzle with a substitution cipher.
took a few hours but easy peasy.

http://www.simonsingh.net/The_Black_Chamber/frequencypuzzle.htm

Follow all the clues and it is reasonably straitforward if you understand the clues......me I had to look through all the postings but there is a lot to help on here.

Oh just a quick note everybody talks about the 3rd ball bearing WHAT ABOUT THE 4TH WHAT DID THAT DO?????
