Wow. Yesterday, on Puzzle Hunt, I released a puzzle that was difficult a bit…aggravating for most.
Since Puzzle #7, I wake up early to make sure the puzzle went through. Yesterday morning Puzzle #8 was was fine, so I was relieved. A couple hours later, I checked the comments: no one had solved #8. That was strange, I didn’t expect that. I wondered if the password was wrong, or if I had done something in error. But everything was working.
By 9:00, I realized no one could solve the puzzle. I released a hint at 10am, and then again at 12pm. The second hint, people started to solve it.
There was still an insane amount of tweeting and email that followed! *laugh* Manda was at the helm answering all the tweets and emails so kudos to her.
And now, the upcoming puzzles are going to be quite difficult. We’ll see how that goes. ^_^
This all happened at dinner, btw. Zoe is happy she’s in the comic.
My poor fam, I may have been a bit preoccupied as of late with this puzzle hunt. Ah well. I was hoping to go to the Merrill to see some filk stuff, but I am going out for dinner with the family. Yes, I found the right answer! ^_^
In the meantime, I made Puzzle #3 a little bit harder than Puzzle #2. Wooo boy, who knows how that’s going to pan out…
When Nancy Drew goes into the bathroom, she says weird things. One time, she sang a little tune that Zoe says in panel three. Ever since then, Zoe has been singing it out loud and proud. She made up a dance too.
This is the kind of diorama I would want to make. I may have spelled diorama wrong. I’m sick, so I’m not going to worry about it now. Zoe is still relentless about getting new shoes now.
I finished off a huge puzzle that I’m particularly proud of. Hah! I can’t wait to unleash this.
