Mystery: Next Reference Project!


bonesiii

One of three levels of the Mystery has been solved: The next reference project is done, and is ready to go online within a week of today! A series of clues is hidden throughout my blog that can be used to figure out what the project will be. Two more batches of digital cookies are available to those two solve the other two levels of MYSTERY!

The two remaining levels involve:

1) The mask the eyes in the third image belong to and the hidden clue that goes with the eyes.

3) The scope of the new project, and what form it takes, as related to the three clues whose answers are identical.

One of the three members who unwittingly gave clues has been identified: Gravitan. Two remain. One is more obvious than you might think. The other is talking about the same thing the obvious one is talking about.


Ca'gerrin has figured out the first level, so he has won the first batch of cookies. Several other members have answered the riddles in the clues correctly, and my confirmation of those things forms another type of clue. All that is in the comment to the last blog entry.


I want to thank all the RKs, including a few who have had to resign due to schedule conflicts, for making this project possible! I'm really excited about this, and I think you guys will like it! ^_^ It's taken nearly a year, I think, to complete, and we had to overcome glitches and other technical problems that bogged us down, possibly indefinately. But that's all behind us -- and I'm am very happy to finally be launching this. :D

Continue to post theories on the Mystery. The cookies are getting cold! :P

Hmm...

 

Lost + On + Mystery are all blue words.

 

There are two links on the content blocks, one to main page, one to forum.

 

We know there's a new Reference team, which would cross out the forum, since it's done.

 

So something's gonna happen on main page aside from news article, is it?

Here's the clue.

The three questions, and the three answers:

What kind of writings has bonesii done as a staff member? News, Reference, and Discussion

What are the three divisions of BZPower? News, Reference, and Discussion

What are bonesii's three jobs, divided by slash marks? News Writer, Reference Master, (Discussion) Moderator

 

Are those the three questions and answers?

 

EDIT: Should the blue mask link here?

All intriguing, and all that, but I'm afraid I can't give any new theory as to what's going on.

Going completely off topic, what I want to know is, though, is how do you get the clue to appear on the question marks? I've never thought it possible with BB Code...

I do like what I'm 'hearing'...

Edit: ^^ Thanks Adventuress.

To see the clue, hover your mouse over it, or right click on it and go into properties :) To make one, choose your image or word, highlight it and go into special item, then go to acronym :)

Is one of the three members Bioran23?

No. I think I should just give that one, since you already found what the clue was to. It was Ca'gerrin, when he found the "rkav" file. RK avatar? Wouldn't make sense unless it was for a shared account. :)

Cha-ching! You have answered the three questions correctly. "News, Reference, and Discussion." :D

 

And yes, that IS where the mask should link! Congrats! You have aaaaalmost won! :P

 

Thing is, that is the old reference section. It is going to be replaced with a redirect (and archived; the new section will link to the archive) to the new section.

 

You guys have the info you need now to solve the final puzzle. It is about the form that the new reference section will take, and remember it involves the second level of mystery that Adventurer already solved. Get thinking!

 

But Lih, you definately are entitled to most of those cookies already. :P But first someone must answer this: What form do you think the new section will take?

It is nifty, isn't it? :) Maybe we should start doing that whenever we say "TWTFTW" lol.

 

 

Edit: The Project Unveil sidebar has changed yet again. This old clue has been removed:

 

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
The answer to three clues is identical. A clue has been hidden in this blog that reveals which three clues. One member has answered one of the questions totally correctly.

 

And what is probably the final clue is now in there.

Mmm Chronicler... Then writing... Something like a guide... Are you gonna make the wall of history? :P

 

EDIT: Does the new form has something to do with Voya Nui or an U?

Got ya there, bones. :P

 

Let's see...

 

What does it unscramble into...

 

It doesn't appear to be able to be turned into a complete sentence. But I might add that this must have something to do with Lih's post, 'cause you acronymed that too.

 

 

EDIT: Wait, the colored letters can be combined into the word "forum"! The new section will take the form of a forum!

But didn't we already know that...?

Err, well, if you did, I didn't see you post it. :P What I saw people posting was that the new forum would be a place to discuss the new ref. section. No. The new forum IS the new ref section!

 

But you can eat a couple cookies from the final batch. :)

Exactly correct!

That's the third level of mystery! That's as much as you guys can figure out for now.

 

The winners are: Ca'gerrin, Adventurer, GB#1, Gravitan, Lih, and Laughin' Man. Congrats, and enjoy those cookies!

 

BTW, Lih acronymed his own post. ;)

Ah, cookies have never tasted sweeter. ^_^

 

And three times three is nine... But I'll try to figure that one out a little later. :P Perhaps that means there will be nine topics in the forum at first?

 

And, of course, I (or rather all of us) want to thank you for doing this, bonesiii. This is just about the most fun and excitement I've ever had on BZP. I can't wait to see how the new forum turns out. Thanks for this. :)
