First thought - any relation to Jasmine?

 		Tough call, here. One can glean more than a small bit from the teaser page on the Studio Cypher site, but that may qualify as peaking "behind the curtain", as it were. Or at least revealing early.

Hunt it down at your own risk...Wink

 		About Nickolas (from quiz)
Nickolas Marshal, a successful businessman who wants to give back to the world he left. He found Jasmine at the dusk of his life, and now wants to help you find your perfect friend.

Yup as noted above, but also from the SC site they had

PS. Sorry Silverkun I felt they were such small snippets I'd post them, my bad. Embarassed (although I think all they do is wet the appetite for more...)

 		From my question after the five puzzles I got:

Quote:
Nickolas and Jasmine were married when they were both on the material plane. As far as I know, the only other connection they have is Bay Horse.

 		I got my guest pass today, went through everything and Nickolas is who I'm best with, it seems. This should be interesting.

 		Personally, I'm having trouble with the Company Charter puzzle.

Following the instructions leads to, well, something that doesn't really make sense.

 		Macavity, here are a couple of things I found I had to do to solve the Company Charter puzzle:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Apply the rules strictly sequentially. If, say, a rule is to be disregarded at one point, and then re-enabled later, you do not go back and apply it to operations that you did while it was to be disregarded.

 		Hmm. I'm looking at Nickolas's 5th puzzle -- alphabet at the top, strange graph or diagram below. I don't believe I've seen anything like it, and no idea where to start.

Any general and gentle hints would be most welcome.

 		Second Puzzle
Feeling a little dense this morning, but can't seem to get a good start on the company names puzzle. Anyone have any hints?

 		There is actually a discussion of the company names puzzle, with some pretty good hints, in the Stanley Sheckles thread/topic. I'm not sure why the discussion is there instead of in this thread, but there you go.

Yeah, I did that. It still doesn't make sense to me . . .
