OK, guess I lied. Here's what the hint leads to (attached). Use this then like a combination lock (left to first symbol, right to second, etc.)

The symbols should be read left to right, not top/left to bottom/right, so start with the symbol 4rth down on the first column.

I'm not even sure where to start on 3.


anyone have a clue on what to do on number 3? i'm still lost. I get that you need to find some of the symbols and work the crank handle like a locker room lock. but this is pissing me off.

Going from left to right in the image I posted, turn the crank until you get to the first red symbol, turn the other way to the next, and on until you light all 6.

Yes, deviants. Going down each column, you have pairs of tiles. Played 'which one of these is not like the others' to see which didn't fit the pattern in each column.

Oh DUH. The most infuriating thing about that is how clear it is post hoc! Thanks for the explanation!!

No problem - the more that get caught up, the more eyes we have looking at the next one.
