Does someone have a link to the high school forum?
I wish I knew about this forum when I was struggling through the experience. I think I got most of it but its nice to finally see there are others.
Just ordered Season 2 but ordered it as one full package - can't handle the weekly mailings!

Out of curiosity, is #9 a largish package of some sort? I just got #10 in the mail today but have not received #9 yet. I'm mainly asking so that I can try to be home when it gets delivered if it's a big package. No, #9 is a smallish, just under A5 I suppose, envelope, but contains a vital transcript and puzzle. You need it. If it doesn't turn up in a day or so, let me know and I'll scan you mine so you don't get held up.

I got a reply saying that they discontinued the e-newsletter. While of course I'm going to try getting into the Members Area once I get #9, I'm trying one other tactic with this newsletter and will update when and if it works. Just to follow up on this, my instinct was right but my method was wrong (I tried e-mailing the person who had e-mailed me about the newsletter being discontinued). For anyone doing this, there is indeed a way to get the physical newsletter mailed to you, but it's more involved than just e-mailing...

Check the letter you got at the very beginning (even before you got mailing #1) and look for a reference to a PO Box number and the explanation of what will happen if you put that PO Box number into a place that asks for one. Also, for those of you who haven't gotten into the members area, I recommend doing this not just for the newsletter (which I haven't received yet but I've gotten confirmation that I'll be getting it) but because the method of getting it features a memorable puzzle using an item you likely didn't realize even had a puzzle to begin with. Finally, while I agree that the pace is slow-ish, there's been so much content that it's hard for me to complain. Also, if you think this is slow, definitely don't get Hunt A Killer, which has got to be the slowest paced experience ever (one box a month with little substantial content in each one, though what's in each one is intriguing and will likely pay off in the end).

I just ordered Season One. Can't wait to dive in. Woohoo! Can't wait to hear your thoughts (and feel free to PM if you need any help with the puzzles; craigrj and I bounced ideas off of each other and it was very helpful). I think this is my favorite of all of the experiences I've dabbled with so far, and I can't wait to experience Season 2.

October? Wow, we will have our hands on Season Two in its entirety by then....we need to remember to keep spoilers hidden for you, I'm so envious you have this to work through, it's absolutely ace.

Perhaps Todd could retitle this thread "Season 1" and start a new thread for "Season 2." This would eliminate accidental viewing.

You lot are costing me money lol! Looking forward to getting this. This forum is excellent btw - it's difficult finding things where the postage to the UK isn't extortionate so its really good to get some reviews first and see whether it's worth it.

I also just ordered season 1. Reading all the comments makes me sure it will be amazing! I will have to temporarily actually look at my mail instead of simply chucking it in the garbage bin. I hope I haven't missed anything!
