Got our 3rd solve on #2. Still only 1 solve on #3 and #4.

Question: should I post solutions when we've got 3 solves on all 4? Or would you like me to keep posting riddles? I have 2 more, and they're the hardest 2... one of them is pretty nuts difficult. Or I can create some new ones instead of re-using puzzles I created almost 10 years ago.

I'm really interested in ciphers and codes. Although I can't solve any of these I would be very interested in seeing the answers when you post them. I was looking at one of your old puzzles (falling rain) and it helped me solve an unrelated puzzle I have been working on for a while.

We've gotten 2 additional solves on #4, so that's now be filled. 2 prizes left... both of the Chess Riddle, #3! I really didn't think that one was very hard...

The problem with 1 of the other 2 is that I don't exactly remember how I put it together... and therefore, I am not sure I can re-solve it myself to recall what the answer is It's that hard.

@Mufflin1634 I have no idea what you're doing. Feel free to email me with your components and I can let you know how many (if any) were correct.

the two other forums he was referring to in his second post were the forums on the Kingdom of Loathing and Flash Flash Revolution.
