    Think of those three 'planets' as celestial bodies - all in a row.

    [6] Secrets of the Alchemist Dar - it was a book that had puzzles/clues/secrets that were to lead you to treasures. Lots of celestial references in it.

    [6] google

    I'm stumped.

    Is it significant that the last 'blank' is slightly elevated?

    (Beautiful graphics, btw.)

    [7] [5] Thank you for the nudge

  11. FilePancakesCWarrior on Feb 25, 2009 07:26 PM

    [9] No significance to the blanks at the bottom other than that there are six of them.

    Weird - I got the answer from a YouTube video...

    "Can you use it in a sentence?"
    "Your spelling bee word is ..."

    [13] Yes, and it's the type of word that would be in the later rounds.

  16. FractalTomatodduensing on Feb 25, 2009 07:55 PM

    [12] I got the word from the last 15 seconds of the video as well....neat how that happens.

  17. FilePumpkinJohn on Feb 25, 2009 09:28 PM

    That wasn't a puzzle

  18. FileGarlicsorter on Feb 25, 2009 09:46 PM

    [16] incredibly helpful - too bad I had redo several times.

  19. FileEggj15bell on Feb 25, 2009 09:51 PM

    [17] I disagree. But I respect your opinion. Did you not have to puzzle out the picture of those celestial bodies and puzzle out which letters you could only use?

    Once done I found CW's puzzle to be mightily clever.

    Hah! One of my favorite words! Three hours late and still managed to get some bonus points :)

    C'mon people, it's called a "vocabulary" look into it ;)

    This was the name of a character in a comic book called Vanth Dreadstar by Jim Starlin. Thanks Jim!

    Luckily I knew that word.

  22. FilePancakesCWarrior on Feb 26, 2009 07:04 AM

    [19]Thank you for your kind words....

    only got it from googling [29] and i dont see a puzzle here. There is no solve method its just random plugging in of letters or anagraming randomly.

    POS

    [24] Hey, pitbull's back!

    Is it a puzzle? I got the idea by looking at one of those little stencil things kids use in school to make posters. You can tell some letters are used much more frequently than others.

    So, the idea for this puzzle was ... assume you have only the stencil set, could you figure out what word the user made? To make it a fair puzzle, it would have to be a sequence of letters that doesn't produce multiple words. To my knowledge, there is only word that fits this puzzle.

    Little salt please... :(

  27. Avatar_959_jpg100_200x200RaspberryRocketeer on Feb 26, 2009 06:46 PM

    [25] I didn't interpret the letters as being of a physical stencil as you mention, simply as highlighted letters ... and along the way tried sounding something out, looked for a deeper puzzle, etc.
    A few brain cells later I finally got it. Whew!

  28. FilePumpkinJohn on Feb 27, 2009 12:17 AM

    [25] With that in mind, it might have been fair to see a darker outline on the letters used more than once.
