daffydil and uneasyjd can you tell us what the other answers you put were?

just in case one of the others is wrong.


I used the same answers as serendipity01, just changing the coroner's name.

There are just far too many iterations here Mad

Apparently I didn't make myself clear. When I wrote...

Terry Barelson and Juan Maldoza don't work either.
and...

I meant

(i.e. 2 separate attempts).

I know nothing with a capital N about the Cloudmaker ARG. I do know though that it has alink of some sort with AI Artificial Intelligence the movie. I have seen this film and I am wondering, if there a feared character in this film that wanted to shut off the boy?

As I said, know nothing about everything but it was a tought that wanted to be typed down.

Likewise. One of the unsolved puzzles mentioned on the cloudmaker site was called vulture. In fact there was some debate about whether it was a puzzle. The answer (to what was queried) was said to be cuckoo. I tried this as an alternative to Founder with no joy, because I thought it fitted with the hint. Question 3 is one of those maddening things which could be wrong if we don't use exactly the right words. I couldn't find any mention of who was the most frigthening coroner, though I did like how Coroner Sweborg was actually coroners.web.org. ROT 13 could also be one of those things where it matters exactly how you express your answer. I'm writing this mainly in the hope that if correct in spirit answers are being marked wrong, the requirements might be relaxed, as in close up.

Personally, I would find it equally hilarious and annoying, if the answer to question 7, the ROT-13 one, was ATBASH.
It is such a horrid but imaginable joke.

I'm not sure if this is relevant, but following what's been discussed already, I thought I'd look at cloudmakers.org. Following a link to http://www.coronersweb.org/ redirects to an eBay search page, the keyword for which is Startac.

Maybe nothing, but I thought I'd mention it!

Funny you should mention that! I was also on the cloudmakers website last night and when I clicked on a webpage link for the coronors web i was hot into a page on ebay for Startac (only they were mobile phones). I just assumed it was a broken link.

Maybe not! maybe the answer is Startac!

Well I tried it, using the aswers given elsewhere for the others, and it didn't work. Perhaps not surprising!

I did see the coronersweb mentioned elsewhere and it was pointed out that it and a number of other old gaming sites now redirect, so there may be nothing in it.

Guys, have any of you been in touch with PC Customer Service? I'm pretty sure they check these forums, but in case they are not aware of the problem it might be worth dropping them a note.

These are supposed to be puzzles with an answer, not a guessing game! So in my experience if you let them know you're close they may "relax" the answers a bit, or at least provide a pointer...

They did say that they were working on making cards with lots of questions on like this one tell you which parts you had right and wrong, so give them a bit of time and things should be sorted out.

Found the actual site for coronersweb, which is http://coronersweb.cloudmakers.org/ they gice all names already mentioned, so perhaps one of the other answers is wrong?

Could someone please advise me as to what the hell the 'Founder' puzzle is? All i can find is 'The Beautiful Land' puzzle which shows a map , but this has been solved according to the guide at cloudmakers.org, because they were gettting annoyed at people not solving it so they gave clues which lead to a word 'Founders' but that isnt the name of it.(The Puzzle)[/img]
