I am back! Until my flight! No capes involved, sadly.
Also, I am happily available to represent the Prime Wardens. Or the Prime Wardens. Uh oh, this may get confusing. (The idea of trademark dispute between reality dopplegangers actually now really appeals to me, I am probably gonna keep thinking about this.)
EDIT: doh, my phone went to the wrong page so it looked like we were still going. Looks like I have a lot to catch up on! But a preemptive congrats and awesome job to everyone!
EDIT 2: Fantastic finish to GrySqrl---which I have been reading as Gary rather than gray this whole time for some reason. I remember looking at the letters 4/4/4/4/5/5/5/5/5 and seeing gibberish---but with OB and V in there taunting me. Stop it brain, Oblivion is only 8 letters! Clever and elegant solution, bravo/a. Was really great working with you guys for the little bit I was around for---I'm glad I was able to actually contribute an answer and help, but you all who made so much progress the first couple days did some great sleuthing. And to the GtG folks, this was impressive all-around, thank you so much for putting this together---I know it can't be easy to make everything fit so elegantly, so doing this all for a release announcement really says a lot about you all and your enthusiasm for the game.
Huge thanks, congratulations, and "let's do this again!" to everyone involved on both sides of the whole affair. (Seriously, I would happily team up with you folks for another puzzle hunt sometime!)
… and it would explain why Baron Blade's V5 incap effect explicitly refers to Baron Blade's "villain turn" while almost all other incap effects of the V5 villains just refer to their appropriate turn. Does this mean that there will also be a Baron Blade hero turn in the future?!
Btw, the incap effect of Fright Train's character card also refers to his "villain turn"…
What a ride!!! I didn't help much, you guys solved almost every puzzle during my work hours, but I di follow along and double check everything. I can't wait to give them my money! All the stretch goals will be ours very quickly. Great job to everyone that did the heavy lifting!
This was such fun, really loved following along with everything and it had me checking the forums at work trying to see if any new comic covers had turned up. Great stuff and really looking forward to the final battle now.
I have been a Sentinels fan for years, but never participated in the forums. I just spent 8 hours reading this one thread. No regrets. Well… one.
Wish I’d been here a week ago.
I read every post, lived every clue. It’s amazing to see people of various backgrounds come together to solve these puzzles. Chemists, librarians, students, teachers, and on and on.
A hard fought win, by an amazing team. Congratulations everyone.
