I'd love to help if I can. I probably won't be able to though, judging by my present success rate with puzzle solving! :oops: Can you give extra people the puzzles to look at, or is that cheating?

We're not stopping anyone who wants to from joining in the solving process.
But we're trying to keep the discussion in a special separate forum (rather like the Puzzlebrains issues), so that it doesn't end up getting in the way of other things, or potentially causing other problems.

Can you just make it an open group and ban me maybe?

I think he was more saying "What are you doing keeping an eye on our progress, worried about being overtaken?"

Maybe "guesses" only refers to "wrong" answers?
