Im in the same boat as you, can you help my with the phrase to get in? I knew how to solve it before downloading anything. That's a hint, not bragging. Thanks for the hint but I must have brain freeze as I have tried to no avail. Must be age related.

Take a good look at the welcome text by Arnold J. Jacobs. Note what diverges. This should tell you the kind of cipher that's been used.
Then read the introduction of the new book The Puzzler by A.J. Jacobs to find the cipher. The odds of finding it are pretty good, no matter what he claims.
Then solve the cipher, it's a nice introduction.

I'm not seeing any obvious puzzles in the Introduction. Maybe tied to something on the login page? I tried various combinations of the sphinx / lion looking creature and the words 641 decil lion.

Want you to make it in for the fun. The instructions mention book cipher and mention a trio of elements to count on. 🙂

... a trio of elements ... Not unlike city, street and house number...

Would Jenny consider moving this into the discussions portion of the forum and out of the News section?

So far I've solved pentagon construction and where in the world is... I have the wordle solve and the hobbit tent solve but I just have yet to figure out how to convert them to actual words. Would love to collaborate
