The pottery pieces are moveable. Put the dish tigether like a jigsaw puzzle and the coordinates are plain as day.

Huh? When you get to barrel 1518 you click on that, but I didn't hear any song. I did it again and kept going by barrel 1518 and still did not get a song. I am having problems with this madeira one. Embarassed

Ok, so not quite a song. More of a ditty, really. Not very good rhyme, but pretty good for a salty dog. As you progress down the hall, run your cursor over the numbered barrels on your left. When you reach a useful barrel, the cursor will switch from an "arrow" to a "hand." Click on that barrel and listen to the rhyme, writing down any numbers or directions you hear.

Hope this helps...

Driven.

Re: broken pottery stumping me

Ok I think I found all the broken pieces of pottery, found the hint -collect-entered that in the solution but don't see the correlation with the pottery. I tried entering a longitude & latitude from the pottery (into the next dest.) but got it wrong, then I lost all my broken pottery. I'll be damned if I am going hunting for all those pieces again! I got seasick last time! Come on someone give me the coordinates from the pottery, please!


Hints for finding the pottery, so you don't get seasick:

I believe you start where I've got the O. You can tell when you've reached a corner, cause you can only go in 2 directions, where you can from and 1 other direction.
Start in one corner, go up(or down), then try the middle column then the last column. It took me 5 minutes to find my last piece, but i didn't give up. Remember, when assembling the pieces, that the format is 1234X5678Y where X is N or S, and Y is E or W.

I can find all of the coordinates except one, that is what is driving me crazy


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
what I have got so far is 0542 W - 555S
Anyone got a hint on the rest?

Sounds like you're missing a shard.
That's the piece that I found last, too.
I don't think I could actually see it, just moved my cursor over every square inch of water until my cursor changed for something that wasn't an arrow.
And don't forget
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
N/S comes before E/W when entering coordinates

bob, when you find all the shards, does it make a complete dish? when I get about 3/4 of the dish I lose my 'back' button so I figured that was it. the dish doesn't go together like a puzzle so I tried to work with what I had

When I was digging around on Bermuda (before I found the wine), I found something that looks like a pottery piece. It could be that if you found that piece before you got to the Tropic of Cancer, then all the pieces would be there. If you didn't find it ... well, you are going to have to guess what the missing digit is (because I got confused, I started over and did not find the plate piece the second time (didn't think it was worth it) ... so I had to guess the coordinates).

Unfortunately, I cannot verify this because I'm at work and my company has some aversion to updating Flash.


EDIT: The pottery piece found on Bermuda does not affect the Tropic of Cancer puzzle.

I believe that I am severely stuck...

I follow all the clues and puzzles till it says that I have to wait for the next clue by email.

I have seen that some of you have gotten clues by email though the only one that I have ever recieved was the first one about 6\6

Am I doing something wrong ?

Also even though I have went through all the pages with the graphics I have no idea what to type in as solutions... when I try it diverts me back to a page that I have already been.

- SEA
- COLLECT

beyond that... im lost.

Can anyone help ?
