The First Door
Puzzle fans may like to try out The First Door, it's a URL changing puzzle, although it is a little different from the norm, having no source code clues, and requiring no graphics manipulation software. Personally I haven't got too far, being stuck with some broken dominos (see above), which hopefully will make more sense to you when you get to them than they did to me. Here's what I think is an official description of the game that got sent through to me:

A new quest began at 12 o'clock tonight called The First Door. A series of tricky puzzles where the answers of them link up to form the idea of the quest: Find the person who needs help: me. I am hiding somewhere in the world and only through the answers to the puzzles can you find my location! I need to be so cryptic in case those who are looking for me find me first. No hunting in the source code or need for photo manipulation software, all you need is the Internet, some skill and the ability to learn things you didn't know before. Please, help me.

The First Door, are we sniffing the right clue with campbell or is it something totally more obsure than that?

try taking the space out from camp analogy and seeing if google has anything to say on the matter. You probably did mean what it says!

Sara

:
hehe. I just found this on Google:

"Campbell invented the pseudonym "Don A. Stuart" from his first wife's name, Dona Stuart"

I don't think this is the Campbell to find however. *snort*

Methods are often named after their inventor, remember the name is in triplicate... The right page on wiki mentions this man's name.

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
Instead of change ringing, try thinking about your -method-, but keep ringing!

No, I don't.

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
You need a -method- to know which order to doing your -ringing- in

Comment 449, Tuesday, June 27th 2006 01:08:00 PM

Trickman

:
I'm not understanding. So the word is found through reading the rows in a special order?
