Any help gratefully received. It's academic now as, like I say, I got to the next chapter without that dead end but I'm a bit of a completist so would love to have the solve. I'm sure I got close but none of my answers were on the money apparently.

Red Path 2 - As long as you have the correct dead end string of numbers this is relatively straightforward. Let me know if you're having difficulty...

I'm seriously struggling on The Dead River. I'm trying to find something to read but without any success. Any help gratefully received. Also now up to the Frozen Path but haven't had a proper attempt at that so no help required (yet!)

EDIT - Ha! Power of posting! I now have something to read...

EDIT 2 - Now I just need to solve Frozen Path

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I've found something to listen to but haven't yet got any further.

I also assume there's more to the first page of Bodley Mansion than meets the eye.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I've found the 'more accurate' page which contains two words but I can't deduce anything from those or the 'similar but not the same' comment.

Any hints appreciated.

Calm Streams Clue

This is what I was given....

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

the answer starts with "I". I started my computation from here:
http://www.isi.edu/isd/LOOM/document...finitions.text

and the second part

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The resulting formula will be for "M", then find the other concept ("I") that uses the same formula.

Now Im stuck at blue clearing.....grrrr

Use the 'tool' that was given to you at the start of this chapter.

Notice anything odd with that level? Look at the source to see what you have to see. Very Happy

If the answer to Calm Streams is

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Inertia

I shall scream. That (along with many others) was one of my first sensible guesses but the error page didn't seem to load properly...

On a separate note � I'm getting more and more frustrated with Bodley (similar but not the same). The only information I have in addition to the obvious is a 'hidden', 'more accurate' image with two words on it. I'm literally out of ideas on where to take this any further. Any nudges�?

Calm Streams.....do a wiki search for

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

momentum-theorem....look closely at the search results.....also the answer has the same units and dimensions as momentum

I'm stuck in the dead river area......any help that way?

You need to sample the color of both words. MS Paint can do the trick. Wink

Which dead river? There are two.

If you need help on the Dead River with the arrows in the grid, I'm afraid I didn't solve that one. I don't even know how to start.

For the one with the letters,

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Where is 'c' located? Where is that location located? Add the other letters. Wink

Bodley....think about the clue at the bottom of the page, think about part of your forum name, then think about why you would need a more accurate image....

Have you found anything to read yet? Once you find that it's still far from straightforward but I can provide nudges if you let me know where you've got to.

Think I can get somewhere with my own problems now thanks to people's hints...

EDIT - ok, must have tried everything BUT the correct answer for Calm Streams first time round once I'd got the right area! Can't believe I didn't try that sooner!

Re: Bodley Mansion - I think I know what people are getting at but should I be able to derive words from the information? All I've managed to do so far

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

using MS Paint is to establish there is a difference in the colours of the words. Googling the RGB details gives me nothing, I was rather hoping it would reveal specific names for the colours. Do I have to manipulate the numbers in an obvious way which hasn't yet occurred to me?

Clearly being quite dense at the moment!!
