10
+ <p>You might think, because of the odd appearances of punctuation
11
+ within words, that this is a keyboard change puzzle (like
12
+ QWERTY-Dvorak) but it is just an arbitrary cryptogram in which
13
+ punctuation is encoded just like any other letter. The key below
14
+ was in the provided solution, with quirks: Cipher a, supposedly
15
+ encoding underscore, is not used in the puzzle, q represents
16
+ itself, and no character represents v. The puzzle appears to have
17
+ an uncorrected error, that w's are used instead of s's to encode
18
+ what ought to be an ellipsis at the end of the message.<br>

10

11
+ numbers 11, 5, 25. Each column represents a digit, and the rows
12
+ represent the segments of a seven-segment display, with dark cells
13
+ indicating lit segments. The puzzle does not use the conventional
14
+ order based on the pin configuration of standard seven-segment
15
+ display units, which starts with the top segment and goes
16
+ clockwise all the way around, with the middle segment last.
17

18

19

20

22

28
+ <li>The third and fourth columns match the first two columns of

30
+ <li>The fifth and sixth columns match the fourth column of the
31
+ key, so are both 2s.</li>
32
+ <li>The seventh column does not match any other digit seen so far,
33
+ and has six segments lit. That can only be 0 or 6, and since the
34
+ unlit segment was lit in both 2 and 5, it cannot be 6, so it is
35
+ a 0.</li>
36
+ <li>The last column is another 8.</li>
37
+ </ul>
38

14

10
+ <p>An informant gives you this message:</p>
11
+
12
+ <p>"After work yesterday I met with an informant in St. Peter's
13
+ Square. She said she managed to purloin a couple of memos from a VILE
14
+ member's desk, which she gave to me. The first has the following text on
15
+ it:</p>
16
+ <pre>
17
+ VILE:<BR>
18
+ LOVE
19
+ OVER
20
+ VEIN
21
+ ERNE
22
+ </pre>
23
+
24
+ <p>The second has some curious stories on it that I can't figure out the
25
+ meaning of. Can you help?"</p>
26
+
27
+ <p>Here are the stories:</p>
28
+
29
+ <P>Romeo RESTS his ARM JOINT on the gatepost and looks UP.
30
+ He sees a sight more wonderful than all the EXPLODING STARS ever
31
+ viewed - his DARLING Juliet on the balcony.</P>
32
+
33
+ <P>Pat, on a safari in Africa, LOOKS STEADILY at the STRIPED MAMMAL. The
34
+ animal, KEENLY AWARE, takes umbrage - "Why do you GAWK?" she asks. "If you
35
+ think I don't mind, you're making a MISTAKE."</P>
36
+
37
+ <P>Jimmy's cat was not IN ITSELF particulary attractive. Still, he couldn't
38
+ help but WORSHIP it. One time, a dog CHASED [it] UP A WOODY PLANT. As the
39
+ cat JUMPED from branch to branch, the boy called for his MORE
40
+ LIFE-EXPERIENCED sister to help. She drove the dog away, climbed up and
41
+ retrieved the cat. How nice.</P>
42
+
43
+ <P>The scientific group decided to build an ELEMENTARY PARTICLE detector in
44
+ Saudi Arabia. However, The WAY to the facility was in DISPUTE, and the
45
+ local CHIEFTAINS would TURN UP THEIR NOSES at each proposed solution. </P>
46
+
47
+ <P>CONCERNING my trip to China: I had a great time until a certain TURNING POINT.
48
+ One night, my ENTHUSIASM for eating the exotic food took over and I GORGED
49
+ myself. I then fell ill and had to be taken care of by NURSES.</P>

9

10

11
+ <p><b>Second group of numbers:</b></p>
12
+ <p>[({Concerto for Three Harpsichords in D Minor, BWV 1063} - {Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 in G Major, BWV 1049}) - 7]</p>
13
+ <p><b>Third group of numbers:</b></p>
14
+ <p>[({The Christmas Oratorio, BWV 248} - {St. Matthew's Passion, Pt. 1: No. 8, Aria "Blute nur, du liebes Herz!", BWV 244}) * ({Bach - Invention No. 13 in A Minor, BWV 784} - {Invention in F Major, BWV 779}) * 7]</p>

16
+ <p>[(French Suite No.6 in E Major, BWV 817 + The Goldberg Variations, BWV 988 - Prelude and Fugue in A major, BWV 888) / 7]</p>
17

18
+ <p>1063-1049+7 = 21</p>
19
+ <p>(248-246)(784-779)7 = 70</p>
20
+ <p>(817+988-888)/7 = 131</p>
21
+ <p>The required IP address is, therefore, <b>209.21.70.131</b>.
22
+ <p>It is presumed that the Toronto news article shown at the bottom of the puzzle was at that IP address. The vices in the article had certain letters capitalized. Anagramming them produced <b>INDEPENDENT LIVING GROUP</b>, which was the answer.

12

13

14

15

25
+ meaning of. Can you help?"</p>
26
+
27
+ <p>Here are the stories:</p>
28
+
29
+ <P>Romeo RESTS his ARM JOINT on the gatepost and looks UP.
30
+ He sees a sight more wonderful than all the EXPLODING STARS ever
31
+ viewed - his DARLING Juliet on the balcony.</P>
32
+
33
+ <P>Pat, on a safari in Africa, LOOKS STEADILY at the STRIPED MAMMAL. The
34
+ animal, KEENLY AWARE, takes umbrage - "Why do you GAWK?" she asks. "If you
35
+ think I don't mind, you're making a MISTAKE."</P>
36
+
37
+ <P>Jimmy's cat was not IN ITSELF particulary attractive. Still, he couldn't
38
+ help but WORSHIP it. One time, a dog CHASED [it] UP A WOODY PLANT. As the
39
+ cat JUMPED from branch to branch, the boy called for his MORE
40
+ LIFE-EXPERIENCED sister to help. She drove the dog away, climbed up and
41
+ retrieved the cat. How nice.</P>
42
+
43
+ <P>The scientific group decided to build an ELEMENTARY PARTICLE detector in
44
+ Saudi Arabia. However, The WAY to the facility was in DISPUTE, and the
45
+ local CHIEFTAINS would TURN UP THEIR NOSES at each proposed solution. </P>
46
+
47
+ <P>CONCERNING my trip to China: I had a great time until a certain TURNING POINT.
48
+ One night, my ENTHUSIASM for eating the exotic food took over and I GORGED
49
+ myself. I then fell ill and had to be taken care of by NURSES.</P>

14
+ <li>Assume a 0-degree "baseline" (i.e., an x-axis) that remains constant no matter what you do to the drawing. Any diagonal must make a 70-degree angle with this baseline; e.g., "K":
15

22
+ <p class="intro">Some puzzles' introtext explicitly mentioned the six
23
+ dwarves from the movie <i>Time Bandits</i> (Fidgit, Og, Randall,
24
+ Strutter, Vermin, and Wally). In addition to being part of the
25
+ spacetime metas, the answers to these puzzles are also used in the
26
+ secondary treasure ("booty") metas.
27
+ <p class="intro">Want to solve the booty metas? The combined word list
28
+ for all dwarf puzzles is included below. The four booty metas appear on
29
+ the <a href=..>Map of All Space and Time</a> (<a
30
+ href="moast.tiff">larger version</a>). Finding them and sorting answer
31
+ words is part of the puzzle.
