AKA Ile Sainte Marie or Isle the Saint Mary.

AKA the stop right before Pulau Jong, with the tree puzzle.

Jaxter: They don't send out the emails at midnight. Last round they didn't come out until around noon

hmmm...so if they aren't sent out at a consistent time I suppose we'll all be constantly checking out email for that last clue.

Stay up late, or get up early?

I think they may have gotten it wrong. The server time is in GMT. The code for Palau was activated for Japan at 23:00 GMT. Historically, UK words have been activated at 07:00 GMT and US words at 12:00 GMT. Interestingly, I think UK emails were being sent at 07:00 BST and US emails are being sent at 12:00 EDT!

By "activated" I mean that the URL is going to display a locked version of the puzzle until the server time that is loaded matches the time that the word should be activated. US should be able to visit Pulau Jong and be requested for a keyword at 08:00 EDT, but won't get an email for four more hours.

Oh I thought all the emails came out at midnight. Well I am going stay up any ways to see if they do release it then. You never know.

Oh I was also wondering if anyone has noticed that that "The Hunt" map on the site has two faces in it.

The first face is the is the Left side of the island. If you look at the whole map you will see a Eye right above "Wreck" in Wreck Tomb. There will also be a mouth in the creek. That is one of the Faces the other is on the other side of the island you will have to look for it yourself.

I have also found out a couple other secrets to the game. The squid card point at the cross on the Slough of 3. The compass also points at a couple words like Creek, Hole, (In manmade hole, Put the compass over the word manmade.) Point (In pirate point, Put the compass to the right of the word)

If I find anything else out with the game I will post it on here guys. I will probably be up until they end out this email so I will probably b on here all night. Well I might not post on here for a while but I will be watching this forum so If anyone wants to chat just call my name out.

Well see yall at 12 o'clock
Bye

well its the 21st... and i am registered but i haven't been receiving emails with the clues but have been able to go forward anyways. Somebody mentioned that with a hotmail address you may not recieve any emails after your initial one... basically i'm asking if anybody has been able to continue on to Palau yet...

for the 47 bajillionth time...

The emails are NOT sent out at midnight! However, for the intuitive, there are other ways of getting jump starts on the puzzles.

OK, Japan's site is accepting a keyword for Pulau Jong now. I decided to test something out and went to the last island that needed a keyword to enter: St. Helena. Even though there is Japanese translation, the site is still English. Better yet, I entered "count" (in English) into the Japanese St. Helena site and it works. That being said, anyone who can guess the keyword for Pulau should be able to get an early start... Post if you find something!
