Started taking a look. Looks like there are some word presses about a guy named derek417. think I may have figured out the answer to the 'joke' I think it might be a reference to the king in yellow. Will be keeping an eye out.

I sure hate anagrams, but I'll try a bunch of stuff and see if something works.

Whoa, I'm gonna try and help solve this riddles and find Derek. Confused

I just hope we get enough time on the puzzles. O.o By the way, I have a slight doubt that it was zombies which attacked grace. They could speak, and she said they made a mechanical sound. Robots?

So, if I understand this right, this is what we must do:

- Solve any puzzle presented by the Jester on twitter before time runs out. Whoever solves it, gets to choose something for Derek. If we don't make it, he dies.

- We must also help Grace solve her clues, so that she can find her way to Derek. It's important that she doesn't try do anything more than what the clues say.

- When the jester wants us to finish I joke for him, we better make up several funny endings, so that one of us will get a prize.


Also, this guy "Kobalos" who's leaving comments on Derek's blog, is that one of us (players) or another character?

Is it OK if I don't "spoiler" what's just an early morning guess? Am thinking: tornado or hurricane.
