If you click the link for the Tomb listing it shows an actual picture of the puzzle indicating the box. It looks like a vertical line on the right side of the box to me...

now now...who do we trust?...ou eyes or the decompiler?

[omgcolinwtf]

ATHENA

!!!

WATER NUMBER ANSWER THINGY!!! SHE AND POSEIDON HAD A CONTEST WOOOH!

edit: yeah, now that i'm less excited... that's the answer to number grid. athena.

[Preachertmr]

THXS missed the one in laser.

[confusio]

I agree...here is what I found

Wachs Steam engine

http://www.wachsco.com/company/index.htm

Interesting reading, it's a steam engine, perhaps these guys took a picture of the Wachs engine

intending to point to J. Watts but obviously the picture and the JW don't match.

Then the poor guy with the hydraulic ram is out of the game :-(, and Watts stays, case closed ...

e42 guys when the game is over it will be nice if you provide some clue about the selection of

pictures, because with this one and the one of the telegraph we have two that seem to be

incorrect.

Cheers

Hmm... I don't know anything about the decompiler, so I guess my eyes... ;)

It's George Stevenson, inventor of the locomotive.

[amp_man]

GS=George Stephenson, who built the stephenson rocket?

edit: year was 1829

[boazer]

EW = Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin 1794

HD = Humphrey Davy - Demonstrated electric lamp to the Royal Society - 1806

JW = James Watt - Improved steam engine - 1763

BF = Benjamin Franklin - Pointed light rod conductor - 1752

GLL = George Louis Lesage - Used a single wire system to telegraph a message - 1774

LP = Louis pasteur - Process of sterilizing milk - 1862

GS = Glenn T. Seaborg - Synthesis and isolation of the radioactive element plutonium - 1941

GM = Guglielmo Marconi - Radio - 1901

AGB = Alexander Graham Bell - Phonophone - 1880

CM = Cyrus McCormick - Inventor the Reaper - 1809

TE = Thomas Edison - Invented phonograph - 1877

looks like gs = George Stephenson http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Stephenson so maybe that leaves the the jw still up for grabs

[kindler]

This is what I see in the decompiler ...

Could someone tell TheBruce over at unfiction?

[Eric Veteran]

since we see a steam locomotive it looks like it is watts..

EW = Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin 1794

HD = Humphrey Davy - Demonstrated electric lamp to the Royal Society - 1806

TE = Thomas Edison - Invented phonograph - 1877

GS = George Stephenson - Stephenson designed his first locomotive in 1814 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Stephenson second paragraph of Early Career)

[phxmimms]

Number Grid = Athena

[NateB1]

The inventor of the telephone was Alexander Graham Bell (matches the AGB initials)

GS = George Stephenson - Stephenson designed his first locomotive in 1814 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Stephenson second paragraph of Early Career)

sorry just seen that after i posted tried to edit

Your eyes are analogic devices ...

[amp_man]

GS = George Stephenson - Stephenson designed his first locomotive in 1814 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Stephenson second paragraph of Early Career)

BUT, the Stephenson Rocket, the first "modern" locomotive, was built in 1829: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephenson's_Rocket

so which is it?

[Preachertmr]

Would putting the dates in order mean anything?

[Eric Veteran]

Speak for yourself... I have Zeiss-Nikon digital implants! *grin*

[kpxo]

i tried putting the initials in chronological order of when the inventor invented the device.

BF (1752)

JW (1763)

GLL (1774)

HD (1806)

CM (1809)

GS (1814)

LP (1862)

TE (1877)

AGB (1880)

GM (1901)

but when i put the initials in the answer box in that order with only a space between each, i had no luck.

Edit: forgot one. going to include it and see if i can work something out. : \

[Marin]

for number grid the answer is Athena

[Jaxom]

Since there are 11 inventors, it suggests to me a phone number (1-xxx-xxx-xxxx)

[Preachertmr]

1700's 4

1800's 5

1900's 2

[amp_man]

All in order (and with John Whitehurst for JW):

JW = John Whitehurst - Pulsation Engine (hydraulic pump) - 1722

BF = Benjamin Franklin - Pointed light rod conductor - 1752

GLL = George Louis Lesage - Used a single wire system to telegraph a message - 1774

EW = Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin 1794

HD = Humphrey Davy - Demonstrated electric lamp to the Royal Society - 1806

CM = Cyrus McCormick - Inventor the Reaper - 1809

GS = George Stephenson - modern locomotive - 1814/1829

LP = Louis pasteur - Process of sterilizing milk - 1862

TE = Thomas Edison - Invented phonograph - 1877

AGB = Alexander Graham Bell - Phonophone - 1880

GM = Guglielmo Marconi - Radio - 1901

Try replacing JW with 1722 for pulsation engine by John Whitehurst
