  1. I give up on set adrift. I figured out the time and location the same as you, but nothing I sbumit will solve the puzzle. must be something about how I am entering it.

  2. Yes you do have to enter it in a specific way.

    It took me a few attempts to get it right.

    In fact a few of the puzzles this week have slightly awkward methods of entry.

  8. Thanks Zort.. how did I not try that? Also, noticed that I earned 1410/1500 possible points (1000 required) so did I miss the fine print that wrong answers get you a deduction? If so, then "Adrift" almost cost me the game.

  9. Looking at the Williamsburg State Bank building. I believe this is it. Watch the slide show of images.

  10. I haven't heard of anyone going yet.

    I'm hoping David and Steve, the resident podcasters have got my emails and are going to go as they are in the area.

    By the way the extra points you can obtain by referring up to 3 friends to sign up to the LoA site.
