I have deleted some posts in here. There's a whole forum for discussing the puzzles, please.

My incompetence is increasing by the day. I wouldn't blame you if you thought I was starting to spam your email boxes, the number of times I have accidentally sent out the passwords whilst trying to fix a relatively simple problem... Argh. :roll:

I've got three emails with two different passwords between them. On receipt of the first email I clicked the link to take me to the site so's I could paste in the password. I didn't need to, following the link took me straight into the issue 3 content of the site. So I used my normal shortcut to the PB main page and from there followed the links to the password section.
The first password was entered and successfully recorded. So I don't have to do anything with the new one. I know you knew that, I'm just statin' the bleedin' obvious.

Well so far I have managed to:
1 - send out the issue three password under the heading "issue two password"
2 - send out the issue three password under the heading "issue three password"
3 - send out the issue four password under the heading "issue three password"

I don't blame anyone if they are just a little confused :lol:

I've got a horrible premonition that one issue you might need to solve the magazine to get the password to the forum :shock:

(It may have been in the book Ender's Game where the whole class were given 0% on their exam papers... all they had to do for the exam was break into the school's computer to put their own scores on) :lol:

You got an envelope and a stamp- before New Year :lol: :lol: :lol:

What's worse is Scurra PM'd me a few days ago to make sure you were on the list.

Go and give him a hug. I think he needs one right now. :D
