Is there a clue or a key to the order? I just cant seem to find it! The way I attacked this puzzle was by using Google images and including "patent drawing" in that search string. Is that for the third level? I have all the rest of this issue figured out, two remaining answers to the vault are for patent and the map. with all the hints I just cant seem to wrap my head around this!

I hadn't thought of it as the third level, since it's one of the first things we solved, but yes.

OK, I get it's a puzzle, but am totally stuck on how it arranges. I've gotten it like three different ways and none of them look right... Is there anyone who can give a hint?

I tried arranging the patent pictures 1,2,3....in rows of 5 pictures each and I'm not seeing anything.

Well, now I got it. I went and did that search that one of the Mods suggested. I had all but 4 correct on my own just from looking at the drawings and deducing. I would normally be pretty proud of myself, but seeing as how much I have learned that I didn't connect on a couple of the other puzzles... I'll call it a "break even." This community is already coming through and now that I am seeing just how deep and interconnected the entire paper is, my hope is to solve tCotC without looking into spoilers. At least, until I do.

Can I verify my answer with someone? I think we have it but seems a bit non-sensical.

If you feel a conversation would be a bit too specific and revelatory for a forum post, even with spoiler tags, you are welcome to send me a private message here.

Alright. I am brand new to this and got 1-3 series in volume 3. I thought I was at least moderately smart, I learned Arabic in the army, but I am totally lost. I get that each symbol has a puzzle for the vault. But, I am floundering and the fun is quickly depleting.
No idea how to proceed for Patently Ridiculous.
Short n' Sweet? What IS that?
Found four differences can't find the fifth, but no idea how to come up with a word to enter in the vault.
Perplexle... WHAAAT?
Oh and the map. What gives?
I need a big nudge to keep interested in this.
Flame on if you like, but I don't really care.
Thanks.

I don't have anything to scan or copy this with, but I matched up the patents to their images. Can anyone help?
