  5. I joined, and this seems wicked cool. Would it be possible to create a forum for OurColony.net colony members, so we can have posts about trying to solve puzzles and stuff, it would make things much easier.

    Anyway, nice job about the colony.

    There's a forum set up for us here.

    We currently have 15 members signed up and 150 points which ranks us 109. The challenge still says:

    "You're almost there, a colony isn't made up of one but more. grow your colony to 5 to take the next step".

    So we'll have to wait and see. Maybe someone can investigate the links on the frontpage. As of now we don't have any leads.

    http://forum.teamxbox.com/showthread.php?t=336766

  24. I just joined. That puzzle has got me stumped, too.

    Could anyone post some of the previous challenges? That might give me a better feel for what sort of puzzles they're throwing out there.

    well, I'm pretty sure I found the answer, but the exact answer I'm not sure as none of them are working. I'm not sure if it's because it's after midnight and it's just not accepting yet. But for all you final fantasy players, I'm pretty sure they're talking about limit breaks. It all makes sense when you put it together with this riddle.
