I have learned from past experience that anything having to do with Dave S and cubes only leads to fustration, confusion, and a lot of crying.

The only thing to do is to walk away and let xnbomb solve it Very Happy

I've held this in for over a month now. For any who have ordered Dave's book "Through The Rabbit Hole", and haven't read it yet, I'm going to use a spoiler.

So logically there should be a "www.tryandfindme.com" message on this one.
Scratch the bottom and the top for the moment. They say that they are just that, lets make life easy and believe them.

number the rest: 1 2 3 4

www is on 3 and 4 ( multiple options) com is on 1. 'All' we need to do now is find a snake between them that makes sense.

Should be easy enough. If I didn't need sleep that is. Wink

I'm thinking its a name of some kind. See, you have
R O B - top W
R Y A N - bottom W
R I V E R A - top W

I even have printed it out and made a box. Still not helping much more

EDIT: I mean, www somecrazycrittersname com

Catherwood gets credit for this (thank goodness, cause I thought it was going to drive me insaner!).

See http://addlepated.net/argfest/box-solved2.jpg for details on how.

I am really excited. I wasn't around for CTW, but when i first heard of it, and checked out the archives, i was thrilled to see it took place in a fake town right next to my real town. it was neato. If this is going to be a CTW2, and not just a puzzle on the old site {ie: the fake coords from ILB for the argfest game} then i'm too excited to express it. I really love the "But dreams, like wishes, are elusive and hard to catch."

now, i am feeling really dumb, as i don't know how to google search for numbers with gaps...

Ashgrove Park as an amusement park website disappeared during the
game and turned into a cemetery. Now it is back.
Look around - somethings are different.

For example, there's a new riddle on the Fun & Games page:

i have seen that riddle before.... but i can't remember the answer {propably something very obvious, eh?} so i googled it, and all i came up with was some modding forum site for Infinity Engine - which posts a butt load of riddles, but no solutions. swell...

I'm sure I'm overthinking this, but there are a lot of squares in those numbers. 42 and 228 kinda mess it up though:

__
42 = (6 * 7)
9 = 3^2 * 1
44 = 2^2 * 11
125 = 5^2 * 5
__
147 = 7^2 * 3
104 = 2^2 * 26
18 = 3^2 * 2
50 = 5^2 * 2
__
228 = (12 * 19)
