i was on a thread a while ago which had a link to a games site where you had to go through various doors/rooms and collect items to solve the clue to escape.

I cant find the thread anywhere! it was snugs who i think set it up and helped us all complete it.

Does anyone know the thread i mean? Does anyone know if snugs is around??

but I can never remember which topic I filed a thread under

No need.

Hint for searching if it is a Chat thread.

Click on 'by topic' and then select Chat. It will show the titles of all the available chat threads (about 16000 of them). Then use CTR F to search for a key word from the title.

Failing that, try the google link JJ put further down this thread and use a key phrase instead.

Thank you.

Feel really stupid now

SaintGeorge · 23/08/2005 12:12

Your thread Easy

Returning to the original subject of this thread, I find threads disappear too.

I had one a few months ago, about finding some pictures of clock faces for ds.

I have searched thru archived and current threads and can't find it, can't find the clock faces that someone had kindly linked to on Google either.

Wayhey. I did it.

I need to get out more

Mytwopenceworth · 22/08/2005 17:13

it didn't work.

MarsLady · 22/08/2005 12:48

are you in the safe?

gossifer · 22/08/2005 12:22

how you doing mytwopenceworth?

Mytwopenceworth · 22/08/2005 12:06

YES YES YES YES YES

please

MarsLady · 22/08/2005 12:05

do you want me to tell you the code that I used that worked?

Mytwopenceworth · 22/08/2005 12:03

got the safe, cards on table say code is 7720 but get messages the numbers are not right!

SaintGeorge · 22/08/2005 11:50

It's the rings and the stick you put on top of the box, not the battery. The battery goes inside.

SaintGeorge · 22/08/2005 11:48

My own fault for confessing to name change Marsy, should have quietly ignored mention of Snugs

Mytwopenceworth · 22/08/2005 11:48

I did, yes.

MarsLady · 22/08/2005 11:46

bet you wish no one had found this thread don't you SaintGeorge? lol

SaintGeorge · 22/08/2005 11:42

Did you put the rings on the box as well?

gossifer · 22/08/2005 11:42

i did it! thanks saint george!
mytwopenceworth - you have to put the 2 rings & the stick in the lid of the box & it will open, then use the tape & the battery - does that help

ps, a lot of trial & error!

Mytwopenceworth · 22/08/2005 11:38

I really did log off! I gave up!!

I had 3 keys, battery, tape, stick, box, cd holder, 2 rings, url, power cable. Put power cable to cd player. Couldn't open box. Tried to click battery to it, but it wouldn't work. Couldn't figure out what the hell I was supposed to do!

grrrr

Wish I hadn't clicked on the game. Very frustrating. I feel like the thick kid in the corner!

SaintGeorge · 22/08/2005 11:35

You might have to restart it. I know with some of the links to the games that are circulating there is a problem. If you make a single mistake when entering the code, it locks you out and you have to restart.

Try using this link . It is the one I have always played and the code has always remained the same. Long time since I have played though so the site owner might have changed it.

gossifer · 22/08/2005 11:24

thankyou saint george
there's something quite satisfying about doing this rather than the washing!
ok i have the safe and i've tried every possible version of the website url but cannot get a webpage to come up,
i've tried all the suggestions for codes, do you think i have to start the game new each time to try a new code?

SaintGeorge · 22/08/2005 11:15

x posted.

Good luck, I'm around now if you get stuck again

JJ - nice search facility. Is it new or have I blindly missed it before now?

SaintGeorge · 22/08/2005 11:14

Metal bar? Do you mean the battery?
