Any way those of us stuck at work (blocked from IRC and can only spend so much time on the net) could get explanations on all of these solves, new webpages, information, etc?

DontWorryBeHappy posted on -the hateful-'s (sarah's) blog under the post "worried". Checking his profile information leads you to his blog page: http://dntwrybehpy.blogspot.com/ where there was one picture at the time. In it there are pixies in the background (password), a gypsy in the upper right telling us to go to gypsysoft.com, a rose in the lower left giving us the directory, a quote from alice in wonderland (alice is the username) and a missing word from the quote giving us the name of the picture (night). Same thing with the second picture. Butter background, a ferret bottom right, trout top left, and a quote from Huxley missing the word wheels.

Weephun, the method of solving this series of puzzles mirrors the method that we used in creating the "Paintover" puzzles during Metacortechs; the pattern being that the elements of the picture always revealed four things: site, directory, username and password. Except, of course, for the infamous (and unsolvable) Oct. 1 picture, which was just a picture of one of Krystyn's little friends and wasn't MEANT to have a solution, the fact of which drove poor Omnie completely over the edge, and which is probably why the second pic on Worry's blog is dated Oct. 1 rather than July 15.

Ah, I see. So there's a lot of past experience going into solving these (that seem to be obviously mimicking past puzzles). And a lot of people are recognizing the solves w/out needing explanations posted. Guess my status as a newcomer is really showing Embarassed

regarding a grievous misinterpretation of the Oct.1 image!!!

WAIT! It did have a solution! And they solved it, but then they thought there was something more to it! And there wasn't! It was just the quote!

Yeah!!

Like a couple of others, I too sent an email to Steve yesterday asking how he was, but got the same reply from his assistant, that Steve was on holiday.

This morning I received this from Steve:

Quote:
<time transposition wafer accepted>


Oh my oh my!! I couldn't believe my assistant when he told me someone was
actually asking about me! Oh this is so wonderful, oh joy.


Nobody has asked about me in a very long time, let alone three people on
the same day. I am so happy, oh I could cry from joy. Thank you for asking
about me! Oh my, it's so wonderful to be alive today! I'm glad I came back
from my holiday just to answer your question..


Oh yes, how am I you asked?


I'm supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, thanks for asking!


My Love
Steve Cybexters
