@LeppyR64 when you're finished with the puzzle you're currently working on I would love if you took a stab at mine :) If you can't figure anything out then perhaps I should make the next one a little easier.

LeppyR64

@cbronson I intend to. This one's a bear though :)

cbronson

@LeppyR64 awesome, thank you!

LeppyR64

@WesleySitu Not even really sure if this is on the right track, but it's something to do with stuff liek this. Never used imgur, hope this works. imgur.com/qjaD9xI

Austin Powers rings in my head, "But what does it all mean Basil?"

Wesley Situ

@LeppyR64 what to do with face 3 then?

LeppyR64

Shhh.... :)

Hmmm, Sven Orm's clue means the crosses are dice, (cross me once and bend me five times), five folds to make the cube
Sick Harming - Tock Tock - They're hands on the clock. The squiggly and the straight seem to match that

Wesley Situ

for sven orm's, i interpreted that as dont cross me as you unfold the dice on me or i'll bend you back five times back into a cube

LeppyR64

Could be

Wesley Situ

just another line of thought im trying, but no results yet :P

LeppyR64

Which face is 3 in your graveyard image, middle cube left face?

Wesley Situ

yes

look at the silver die image if you want reference

LeppyR64

just like the silver die

duh :)

Wesley Situ

12:35 AM

also note that this isn't a normal die

LeppyR64

yeah noticed

1 not opposite 6

Wesley Situ

yep

LeppyR64

opposites usually sum 7

I wish I knew what F.N. - West and S.N. - North was

Wesley Situ

i think that'll be when we get to the map

also, if we try taking the sides to be times as a clock, how do we tell which side is up on some of the faces

LeppyR64

I was orienting them as the face would be with the center of the 4x4 grid

3 is troubling though

Clock's say tick-tock or is it misdirection...

Gonna go do some dishes and ruminate.

Ruminate doesn't mean rum, but that ain't a bad idea.

Can you even ruminate without rum?

It's at least less plesant

@cbronson I helped out but your hints point at the transcript and I'm drawing a big ol blank there. The time stamps don't show me anything. I'm afraid I'm not going to be much help straight off.

I wouldn't be discouraged though. I don't think your puzzle is too hard. There might just be something that intuitively you jump too that some people don't.

cbronson

@LeppyR64 Thanks for that! Try looking at the timestamps together rather than in isolation

@cbronson I got no more than what @feelinferrety got.

feelinferrety

Yeah, kinda stuck on the research front here. All I got left at this point is observations.

LeppyR64

I notice that in the Netherlands a lot of addresses end in "plein"

"plein" literally means "square"

feelinferrety

3:43 AM

"plein" = "plying" = wet bending??

feelinferrety

Ugh. Bedtime.

@LeppyR64, @WesleySitu like your gimp work and ideas. Do you have any ideas about the ring yet?

Generally: the graveyard part is the one where mistakes can happen easily - both for solving and building. I did cross check multiple times, but I've unfortunately proven multiple times that I make mistakes. Hence, if you do some intermediate steps in painting, show them (giving me an opportunity to check).

I be also summarised some of your work in the wiki post now.
