Crap, those were some hard freakin' puzzles. I think I spent 4 hours on the last slider puzzle. If I made one mistake on puzzle 3, it was always after I had finished 10 or 12 rounds. I tried not to use the forum to get hints or solutions, but who in god's name figured out the words for puzzle 4??

At 5:10:30:30 left to go, here are my stats:
431,422,368,228,213



I think I figured out the words first (in this forum at least) and Mr. Toasty figured out the order of the words.

 		3.1
Shortly after I posted that, I figured it out.

Thanks anyway.

Now to wait 5 more days. However, I am concerned that my quest log does not show my chapter 3 rankings???

It will if you log out and then log back in. It's an in-game glitch.

I didn't think it would have to be said but...

READ THIS POST FIRST BEFORE POSTING NEW FINDS

Right, so its been a while since I've been here but I think I might have found something of interest (please be gentle if its already been found)

http://www.trianglemystery.com/

When the page opens up you're in a room with a floating polygon, every so often it will "open up" and show a blurb of text. The polygon can be moved, and thrown at the surroundings. Enough throws and the walls come tumbling down revealing an island with 2 pyramids in the foreground, one in the background, and a large ancient looking city. On the 2 pyramids in the foreground are strange symbols. When moused over the small pyramid on the left will change its symbols (from dots to symbols) and the one on the right seems to be a clock. At the bottom of the right pyramid is a place to enter an email address. When entered press the red button and a message appears (something to the effect of you will be notified.)

Back to the pyramid on the left in each of the little circles there is either a dot (.) or a dash (-) This is the cipher for the symbols. They all have a numerical value . = 1 .. = 2 much like roman numerals with - = 5 and so on. Using this cipher, its easy to decode the symbols on the larger right pyramid, revealing a countdown. The large center circle is counting down seconds, the one above it, days and then hours and minutes following clockwise. The timer counts down to 1:00am on May 12th (EST).

I am going to assume that the dots (3 lit, 13 unlit) are counting down the number of days (13 until the 12th) meaning the countdown started on the 26th.

Other than that, rotating on the bottom is a sun/moon dial, its current relevance I am unsure...

Looks like we're just going to have to wait until the 12th.

If anyone else knows anything else please let me know.

 		Those loose ends....
Getting ready for the final game.
Hey guys.....trying to assign meaning to all the symbols. I need some help. I have a few here that I don't know the translation for. If you can look at these three lists (JPGS) and let me know what these mystery symbols translated to--if anyone even knows--then I can complete the list and post the final draft here.
