FCSL31G: Santa's Route ANSWERS

I'm a little late on the answer to this week's puzzle, I'll admit. Someday I'll get ahead of schedule again so that my work perturbations don't slow down the blog, but for now... let' discuss Santa's Route!

FCSL31G: Santa's Route HINTS

Have you been naughty or nice? Maybe Santa won't bring you a hint on this week's puzzle, but I will!

Each hint is progressively stronger. Hint 1 is a genre nudge to get you started. Hint 5 is nuclear and basically spoils the puzzle, so be careful! You can decode hints here.

HINT 2: Gur snpg gur pnpurf nyy unir Puevfgznf eryngrq guvatf va gur anzrf vf n erq ureevat.

Still gnawing on this week's Mystery Monday puzzle? Here are some hints to help!

I will give you five hints, each getting progressively more revealing, but they will be encoded in ROT13, just like the hints on geocaching pages. You can copy and paste the hints here to decode them. HINT 5 will be nuclear level, so only look at it as a last resort!

FC35MM: Quite A Collection

It's Thanksgiving week here in the states, a time to reflect and consider all the things about your life that you might be thankful for.

Oh, and to stuff your face, and lay around watching parades and ballgames.

How about a puzzle? I'm thankful for those!





And here's a closer look at that image if you need it:
