Steele Excavations: Ninth Puzzle
Okay, hidden temple, you\'re starting to make me look pretty bad. I\'m very embarrassed now. Maybe the expedition is cursed instead of the temple- nothing but amateurs (that steal from the dig site), a cave in, not a lot of great loot. Er, I mean \'scientific finds\'.
I wonder if it\'s because I called the lady in the mural a butterface. Based on fairy tales, that\'s a good way to have someone that is secretly a sorceress put a curse on you. It\'s good that I haven\'t grown any fur, though, because I\'m already over 21 and I don\'t happen to have a castle laying around in a remote location. A castle which all the townspeople forgot about in just 10 years, even though I was ostensibly their ruler. I don\'t know, if my rural village was ruled by a king, and then suddenly it wasn\'t, and the woods got all spooky, I\'d like to think I would notice.
What is the rule with sorceresses, though? Can they be made of stone? Do they have to show up as an old hag and then get super hot when it comes to delivering the smackdown-- OKAY, NEW THEORY. The real Butterface is a sorceress mummy hidden in the temple. I\'m not sure why she\'s a sorceress mummy, but the more I think about it, the more I like it. I\'m a little worried about this whole "breaking the curse" thing, though, because you normally have to do it with true love, and I don\'t really want to kiss a mummy.
Do you think it would work if I wore some of those big novelty Morostide wax lips? Yeah, I don\'t know. It definitely violates the spirit of true love, but I don\'t know if it\'s actually against the rules. Let\'s think about it some more while we poke around in room nine.

When the puzzle came out yesterdag I received the achievement for it. When I logged in today it said I received the achievement again.
Now it looks like I received the mural achievement first and then the achievement from the ninth puzzle, which is not possible to do XD.
Don't know about that, but I think something went wrong there XD

How the hell could some people do this cryptogram with the same phrase, when the spelling is wrong?!

... that's exactly what I was thinking when I re-watched that movie. XD

Personally, Blake, I don't think you notice authority very often, and the only reason you'd notice the woods had gone all spooky was because you'd be exploring it in the hope of finding *cough* 'scientific artifacts'.

Is anyone else documenting their way through the labyrinth? I'm up to room 25. I was just curious if everyone has the same layout or not :O
I guess we shall see soon enough :D
@Sui: You can't know for sure if you were one of the first 100 to solve it though. I was surprised since all the times I thought I had it, I didn't. But this time I did. It's weird that way xD
@Falo: I didn't see a mistake, but then again, I started filling in the blanks with what I figured had to go there once I had enough letters down, so I might not have noticed if there was one :x
