For various reasons, I was just reminded of something interesting I had noticed at one point about this puzzle... If you are liberal about your interpretations of letters, and take one of the Ns to be a Z, and the W to actually be an M, and allow a double hit on the S, you can spell out a certain alchemical society I have reason to believe now that this is not entirely a coincidence.

I believe I have this and the Patent puzzle figured out but what does the "poisoned" line have to do with either? Or is it just a cool hidden message?

Trying to catch up with everyone in Vol. 3. I could use a little more help with this one. I solved Patently Ridiculous but see no connection to the shape of the maze line or the letters on either side of it.

I solved Patently Ridiculous but see no connection to the shape of the maze line or the letters on either side of it. Hey spudman, I'm doing the same thing. And it's my first C&C, so I'm really behind most members here. Peplexle lives up to its name! I was perplexed for a long time, but I think I figured it out tonight. So I'll try to help you out here. I'm not entirely clear on what you need help with. Have you found the hidden message using the Perplexle A, B, Cs and the Patently Ridiculous 1, 2, 3s? Or are you trying to figure out the C word by looking at the visual clue created with the maze? Or is there something else you're confused about?

Thanks tiff. I was having difficulty with the maze vision. As it turned out, I apparently had figured this out earlier but The Vault rejected my answer. I seem to have typed it incorrectly. Vault now likes my maze answer so problem solved. Now to move on to the next problem...

I have read through every hint and I am still stuck. I solved Patently Ridiculous and I have found the maze within the Perplexle but after tracing a variety of routes through the maze and looking at what letters were or were not involved, I am no closer to something that makes sense. Does the different orientation of the letters play a role?

There seems to be more than one possible route through it, thus making more than one shape. I must be missing something.

After Todd's awesome hint, I have now
made it through the maze. However, the shape it makes is giving me fits. I have looked at it from every angle. Little nudge, perhaps?
