Following the possible lead here: http://www.newmarketpress.com/title.asp?id=546

I tried pasting "Book of Magic and Illusion" as the answer for Cups and Balls

what appeared for me was interesting, the word other in the top of the window (where the userid and score are)

See here 356326123_3016a23d3c_t.jpg

EDIT: Logging out and back in has been confirmed to make this behavior stop.

Sigh ...

All "OTHER" means is that the website has forgotten who you are. Refresh and log in again, and you'll see that it's the wrong answer.

Ok...I've read that someone somewhere got something about a Magician sharing his name with a holy object, but where did that clue come from?

If it was from the parchment page with all the joined squares, how did they decode that to get that clue?

each of those square symbols stand for a letter. when you figure out that there is one by itself, you know it's either an A or an I. from there, you plug it in and... figure it out.

We're down to the last puzzle, but weather has kept them from doing the Phoenix event. Austin was cancelled, but they did those clues in LA.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
