Okay I guess I'm crazy, I can't get it on the others, but if you lay the pieces over top of each other (one inside the other), matching panel 01 and 10, on the 03 and 11 panels it definitely looks like a 3 and an 8. Freaked me out when it occured to me to hold it up to a light and I saw it.

IDK, I'm a bit panicky over this since I'm supposed to leave the house shortly. MAYBE there's something in this?

the idea of a clear die seems to work. with the symbols overlaid but with one on the underside of the other rather than simply on top. Again i cant do anything with it whilst at work.[/i][/sup]

Here's what happens in the folding, as a test, panels 08 and 01 line up with the same symbol when you fold them over (I labeled them A). But these seem to be the only repeating symbol.

On the "binary front... It Could be binary reading through the middle of each glyph (But it's not). It could be 8-bit binary reading clockwise around the perimeter of the outer ring. (But again, It's not.) Let's not have a repeat of the last puzzle by overthinking things.

Damn, I have to go. My last tip:
Someone should place the letters wherever their configuration fits. This way when we mount the dice, they should form a pattern and give us the answer. Give that some thought, I'm in a hurry, but I'm pretty sure the solution is in where to place each letter in a tridimensional object.

Here are links to the papercraft images.
The #12 half is on the right with the #2 half on the left.
The first single dot shown is the #9 from the #2 half on the left with the #6 from the #12 half on the right.

What if all it takes is to have enough people line up the shapes in the right pattern?

Going by the last few lines of this that is: http://www.flynnlives.com/images/forums/useruploads/book.jpg

A couple of things I want to throw out.

1. The centre piece of both point in either an up or down direction (not necessarily important...however...)
2. All the surrounding pieces point in the opposite direction.

Going with that I tried moving just the dots from where they are to the blank centre piece. Unfortunately, I'm at work and don't have time to determine if that shows anything (didn't notice anything, but I'm so busy I can't dive in right now.) Can anyone else take a look? I'll try to post an image in a bit of what I mean.



There we go

I've been following you guys from the get go, but unfortunately I can't work on it 'cause I'm stuck here at work. *Arrghh* So, frustrating.

If I think of anything I'll post it, sorry I can't help more...

I defer to the very capable hands here. But is it a coincidence how much this looks like a 3 and 8? (Couldn't get a photo with it overlaid, maybe that isn't important anyway)
