3.7 has never been upped and never will be. browse through the news archive on that site. it said they were going to launch a new version and give up the old one without further developing it, meaning that all people who have gotten to 3.6 (dedbob!) would have to start from scratch and do the whole thing all over again.also, they stopped responding to emails with possible answers for 2.27. they (he, it's a one person) quit.

current news says the new versions of 1.1-1.2 are up. but they are not! u see the whole thing was about money. how many people do u think actually clicked on those ads? well, more than u would ever think, but it was still not enough. that's why nr v.2 has been considered. a new version would attract more people than any extension of stage 3 because only a few people have gotten that far. it would not be profitable. with a new version they'd get new people plus those who'd have to start all over again. it's all about the money.

exactly. i dont think anyone was really doing it for the prize.

ok, for those of u who are still trying to solve 2.27, i'll give u a couple of hints:

1. the whole set-up is related to early parts of stage 1 (animal!)
2. the riddle itself is based on word-play.
3. a huge, just huge amount of info given is IRRELEVANT to the answer.
4. the last paragraph, however, is essential (again, pictures of what animal did he have next to those of his dog and cat?)
5. if u can figure out what the guy's "occupation" is, u will be much closer to the asnwer (read the last sentence, it's a good spoiler).

Awesome link!! And Acid Junkie, I think you are some sort of genius if you did manage to get that far without any help....

Couldn't work out 2.27 though :/

___________________

Acid Junkie, you must be seriously clever, as 2.27 to me seems ridiculously hard to solve.

hmmm, well it will be something to with his horse, Nightmare, but in the last paragraph he has a furniture workshop?!?!

So is he a horse rider or something.

Acid junkie give us the answer!
