Have posted answers for #1, #3 and #5 but am still waiting on a response.

If it's any consolation the 'typo' in the braille appears to have been corrected since Beastriker's screencap.

I have tried to anagram a direct letter for letter translation of the runes but nothing stands out. Maybe position is important as there are no obvious spaces.

Confused

We may be waiting forever, if they are hand-checking every submission, especially if they STOP checking after five people get it right. I'm assuming we are not the only community looking at this.

This frustrates me. I DID get a single reply email, telling me I had an incorrect submission, but it did NOT specify which answer nor which puzzle was wrong. I deliberately entered completely different solutions for #4 just to test the system, and now I have no idea whether both failed. Maybe all of my correct response emails are failing?!?

I know my expectations have been set far too high by slick puzzle systems on other games such as the Legends of Alcatraz. With this thing being by a small team, perhaps this was the best their coding skills could handle. It must be frustrating for them too, getting flooded with emails by people pounding on the system looking for feedback. Heck, I can't even remember what I did submit for answers at this point, and will have to try them all again today.

Well that's a bummer. I'm pretty sure 1.618RegularJohn or myself would've had that one. I didn't even bother submitting that answer, cause I figured they wouldn't have made that mistake. Not to mention it took them quite some time to fix it. As for the other puzzles, I suck. Laughing

Hey guys, sorry for the hiccups. As you guessed, we're a small team but we're working as fast as we can to fix the email problem. Rest assured we've kept up with all responses and all winners will get their prizes. The braille mistake was a screw-up -- no excuses on that one.

Thanks for playing.

LOVELY MOLLY transmedia team

RE: Lovely Molly Puzzle FOUR Response

Our email address isn't working. Your response is correct. You weren't the first but you are still worthy of a prize. Please send your snail mail address back to this address.

Thanks and congrats!

btw, no one has solved puzzle 2 Wink



Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Remember that old Calgon commercial from the 70's ?


ETA:
When I sent my address I had inquired about about a hint for #2

Thanks, booba. I was struggling to see how "Calgon, take me away" would fit in Wink
ETA - ok, think I finally caught up and just have #2 left.

lovley molly
it really lovely

I know what the symbol represents, but not sure about the solve. Are you suggesting it's elemental?

you mean number five? yes, elementary but more modern than the symbol suggests.

Puzzle 2

Hey all..

If the symbol in the center is of the Celtic Cross (Odin's cross/The Sun..), then I think of fortune telling. The Celtic Cross is used in tarot and runes. The runes almost look to be in a formation like that. Maybe the letters are supposed to be read in a different direction?

I was hoping for a phrase to pop out, but it didn't, when looking up the individual rune translations - Livestock/Wealth, Torch, Fame/honor, Thorn/Giant, god/ash, Possession, Estate/Heritage, Joy, Sun, Need, Rain/Water.

Just throwing it out there.

Source code info

Found this in the page source code:
Official Film Site. From Haxan Films, Amber Entertainment and Eduardo Sanchez. When newlywed Molly Reynolds returns to her long-abandoned family home, reminders of a nightmarish childhood begin seeping into her new life. A malevolent force, whether her own haunted past or some supernatural thing, tirelessly seeks to overwhelm her. Alone and isolated in a centuries-old manor, she soon begins an inexorable descent into depravity. Somewhere in the house, in the terrible space between psychosis and possession, lies an evil that will pull Molly and all those around her into darkness and death..

And then the movie poster image on:

Ah... so that's why the back of Michael's disk said "Rewards like this await the first five." Has to be the first 5 correct solves.

Now, what does "Simple symbols await a score." mean?


Puzzle 2, does sorta look like a target. Is it possible, the Runes are the simple symbols, and their positions can be scored like a dart game, or archery/target competition?
