I think the server is just lagged out. It stuck at "Communicating..." for a long time this morning.

Yeh, I was having problems all morning in both IE and FF with it just sitting there saying communicating...
Finally managed to log in about 15 mins ago.
I was 206th through Chapter 1.
[edit] - I didn't get told either. (Hotmail address added on the 10th May.)

I played through puzzles 1-3 before it timed out and wouldn't let me back in until 15 mins before that post.

My sister is having the same issue... Did you get it figured out, Jub?
I played through the first part with no problem, but now I can't login or sucessfully reset my password either. I sent a reply back to the temp password email address explaining the problem and asking for help. I'll let you know if I get a reply.

Same thing happened to me, i just created a new account tonight. It looks like they fixed the problem with the emails. they just took that entire part of the registration process out. made my life a lot easier. yeah i had to solve the puzzles again but no black blank screen this time around at least.

rankings So here is a question.....when Chapter 2 launches do we all start back at 0 in rankings at a level playing field? Are the rankings for each chapter just bragging rights?

What?
I don't think that the current rankings are cumulative.
It's just that the first person through the first puzzle has a better chance at solving the second puzzle first than the 500th person who logs in 2 days later...

Doritos Quest chips aquiring same Just spoke with the Doritos route driver about the chips and he said he only had 5 bags for his whole route. In random bins on the truck... so it looks to me like we night want to hang onto the bags and chuck the chips after a few tasted.
] Why would they be rationing the bags of chips?

CRAP...i had the strip and the Gotham bag but tossed them after we figured out those codes. Now i have go back out and buy 3 more bags. You are probably right we are probably going to need the bags later in the game if they are rationing them out.

Haven't been home for a bit, but wanted to add:
I too was mysteriously not told.
Puzzle 1- 15th
Puzzle 2- 10th
Puzzle 3- 10th
Puzzle 4- 13th
Puzzle 5- 8th
Although I can't take any credit for the PASCAL puzzle. I totally bit off on the Pascal's triangle route.
And finally having to complete the two Rubik's circles puzzle four times before it completed is totally UNSAT.

2 cirlce puzzle solution step by step ok so out of sympathy for everyone stuck on the 2 circle puzzle (puzzle 4) see below:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
right toggle:
move up 3 times
left toggle:
move up 3 times
Right toggle:
Down 2 times
left toggle:
up 3 times
Right toggle:
down 1 time
left toggle:
up 3 times
right toggle:
up 1 time
left toggle:
up 3 times
then move the red section into the middle then move the left toggle back and forth once (for some reason it only locks into place for a COMPLETED when you move the black section)
