Season 1 Still Not Over What You Say?! OK, so, what on Earth am I talking about?
Have I gone mad? The Cube's found, the story's complete.
The leftover silvers can be solved next season; that's all there is!
ENNNGGH, WRONG ANSWER.
One word that's sort of not a word: backsolve.
The Risk dice, the numbers, otpaaworldtdnia 1.56.29, the Receda Trail gap at Jones Beach, the identity (or at least naming logic or assured death/incarceration) of V, the person V answered to,the creator of the Djinn virus (both from the card and its relative virus that showed up some time ago), the Firebox 100 sudoku, YES the remaining silvers, and more; there's a lot of loose ends still dangling about.
The brilliant part is, because of it all, we have something to do until Season 2 gets rollicking proper.
Hop to it; no time to be lazy! Get (keep getting) a move on!

I wonder if V might've been created with the intent of being the Feature Mystery of Season 2...

Not to mention those weird blobs on Persian. I've been thrashing about on that one pretty good. I just hope it's a real puzzle

rose eventually fFound out the clue was there at jones, but was not in a state as expected. i cant seem to fFind the post where she explains, but generally it was moved.

V is short fFor Vadik, a sort of fFairy-tale boogeyman-meets-dracula.

Ah, but that would be telling.

the Firebox 100 sudoku
Well, we have all the requisite pieces fFor most of a solve. An actual answer would be academic at this point.

the remaining silvers
As one of my non-psc fFiends observed: "That guy on that weird card hasn't been fFound yet? the internet has fFailed."
Ok, how about the London Morse code.

And what Scarlett was really saying when the voice recognition software thought she said Violet was angry like snow around her hills and valleys.

Ummm... I don't think we are allowed to talk about Violet's or Scarlett's "hills and valleys".
Although it sounds like some of the male puzzle scribes might be in line for that.

I really haven't been involved that long (see my join date), but I would really like so see at least some of these puzzles solved. Most especially the Risk stuff and the remaining silvers (excepting Riemann, seeing how it's unsolvable). BILLION TO ONE MUST BE COMPLETED!!!

Really? Well!
It's just been bothering me, living 10-15 minutes off and all.
Just a-sayin', we've got plenty to occupy ourselves while we wait.
EDIT: It also seems that Rand0m was privy to a good deal of information regarding future and back-solves while at the Mind Candy celebration; I recommend you view his post HERE (though everyone likely has) to get some extra tips on the unfinished business.
TALLYHO! TO THE RACES!

I strongly agree with Gaspar Lewis. If we spend a small bit of time doing what Humans do best, that is, reverse engineering, then we will be better equipped for season two beside having a sense of accomplishment. WAIT! OH NOOOOS! Someone set us up the KOOB!
Sorry, tangent.
I have been spending my time with my arch nemesis Shuffled. I don't want a clue at this point. I want to use a crowbar. A titanium one, for emphasis. I'll just keep at it until I get it, or someone makes the jump that I can't. Until then, prepare for season two. With drinking. Lots of it.

That's cool. I don't have a clue for that one - I know a clue exists , but I don't know what it is. We're still on our own for Shuffled.

I happily admit that I hope to never see these META puzzles again. Though I wish you good luck in solving them. For Season 2, I think I might work on a META puzzle if there is one at the level of difficulty as the letters on the cards in this Season. You know the kind where you just match things up and they spell words. That is my speed.
