The wordsearch is definitely not a wordsearch.

Found words (29):

asel
ass
asses
ce
cer
cor
de
ec
er
eres
ern
erns
ert
esc
et
eyer
ge
ger
ier
keppel
laer
le
ler
pe
se
sle
ster
te
tes

So, that's a bust.

The IRC chat is at http://www.unfiction.com/chat/, or on IRC, server irc.chat-solutions.org, channel #intimation.

Yes, each color anagrams to one of the two words that lead to the next clue (solved by MrToasty above).

Heh. So I guess we should keep trying to solve strange-stars and i-am-blind. I'm uploading a copy of i-am-blind with only the four unidentified constellations left. Help, anyone?

Actually it is, sorta.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Most of the letters are from PRICKLY PEAR (in fact, you can find the string PRICKLYPEAR exactly once, going up diagonally from the P in the second column, third letter from the bottom.) There are also a bunch of Ns, Ss, and Ts. There are only two Gs, however -- which happen to be next to one another -- and just one D and one U -- which happen to lie on the same diagonal line. If you look around those nearly-unique letters, you'll notice that they're part of two longer words, SUICIDE and TRIGGER. Leading to http://thewaytheirworldended.com/suicide-trigger

OK, for the stars, I have DANGEROUS for the first word, letters SPIE for the second with just that K shaped one left.

First set: Gemini, Draco, Orion, Ursa Minor, Eridanus, Reticulum, Scorpius, Norma, and Aquila.
Second set, Pisces, Indus, Equuleus, and Sagittarius.

Bingo! I suspected as much: there is no constellation that begins with the letter K, so S simply made a K for us. Mr. Green

Edit: And thanks for correcting my error in mis-identifying Equuleus as Cephus.

Here we go again. Back up and running. New log posted, though it seems to be blank (The image is missing)... Odd. Have DM'ed such to Intimation, in case it's an OOC slip-up.

[edit]It's up now[/edit]

[edit=2]Interesting reference to the game we played last week there, too. Are the two parts connected, or is it an important game to Essy?[/edit]

speaking of slip ups: the top of the latest note has the ID from the last note on it.

error, or essy?

the image was there when i checked after the last session, maybe just a glitch.
