Is this attention seeking comment entirely necessary? Seems like trolling, to me. Maybe you should keep your politics to yourself.Originally Posted by Master_Cylinder Go to original post

- Causing disturbances in forum threads, chatrooms or gamelobbies, such as picking fights, making off topic posts that ruin the thread, insulting other posters
- Making posts designed to or likely to get inappropriate responses.

They were relocating offices today, so Dan might not have been able to wait for the forums to come back up.Originally Posted by Master_Cylinder Go to original post
Excuses excuses...that didn't stop BW9 from posting the clue when it did come back up.Originally Posted by RollingStone222 Go to original post
10 yard penalty! Unnecessary whining!Originally Posted by Master_Cylinder Go to original post
TheRiffRepeater and Reddit also followed the clue path once it was posted, so please don't tell yourself things should only exist in one space because you only want to use one space. If the puzzle wasn't solvable, that might ruin the weekly game. But posting the clue in another area does not ruin a darned thing. It's pushing my buttons that you feel you have somehow been slighted, or that something was ruined or owed to you because I chose an alternate route after a three-day forum impasse.
BW9 posted because I asked her to do so before I left work on Thursday (Thanks Widow!) and told her I'd be out of the office Friday, but I mentioned I might just post it somewhere else in the morning if the forums were down before I left for my event, so it could get out there.

Exactly. Our offices are on the first floor of a two-story building, and we've moving upstairs. They said "get out of the office" so we did -- we went and had a fun day together in Golden Gate Park -- but before I left, I wanted to post the clue somewhere so people could get their weekly fix. I also had no idea of if or when the forums would return, so I did my work things before leaving the house.Originally Posted by RollingStone222 Go to original post

I think the worst possible thing would have been to not have a clue because the forums were down, so I appreciate the alternative method. I Don't think Dan had any control over when the forums were back up.Originally Posted by Master_Cylinder Go to original post
They could have waited until end of day, at the very least, but they gave the clue to twitter long before we usually get it here. I would have rather they just announced the DLC on fb/twitter than ruining our fun by giving others a 6 hour head start. They could have waited, that's a fact.Originally Posted by Jayrocksd Go to original post
The goal was not to ruin anyone's fun, but I was not going to let a technical issue over which I had no control or insight (or ETA for that matter) stop the flow of information. I am going to post the puzzle wherever it makes sense to post the puzzle on any given week.Originally Posted by Master_Cylinder Go to original post
I'd advise you to stop being upset about this, because it's just plain silly. You've expressed your displeasure, and nothing's going to be changed from this point on, but you keep restating that you wish it was different. Well, it's not. Let's move on and start complaining about the DLC itself.
Unless someone can actually tell me how the clue was solved, because I haven't seen anybody explain the origins of the glyphs.
