Dispatch by Breakout Box #2 question, spoilers be inside....... Can anyone tell me if Raul Garrido is reckless or a liar or neither. To me it looks like the information given implies he is both reckless and a liar. Which doesn't help me solve the logic puzzle. :}

I recently revisited Box 2, and this logic puzzle is the weakest thing in all of Dispatch upon reflection. Basically, there's info in James' initial notes about all of the people that as far as I can tell doesn't contribute to anything, and there are two people in the end who just don't have any clear characteristics one way or the other, and you just have to infer (thankfully, those two don't end up mattering for the solution). My "hint" to you is this: At one point, James flat out calls one of them "reckless". Take that at face value.

Could use a nudge on the chopstick/fan puzzle in Chapter 2. Thx. Start with the red letters on the chopsticks, and match them with one column on the fan. The line number matters. Then do the same with the black letters. Am still stuck on this. Upside down B makes sense as there's only one - line 5 on the left. But there are multiple I boxes. I thought I had it turned sideways like a grid but no luck there either.... any nudges appreciated

The B goes with the X Then I and E then the U I goes with the V then X I goes with A S continue up.... then match the black letters on the other column. Hope that helps. Shout if you need more.

I'm completely lost. I thought I was trying to get a numeric code... So I now have two columns: BX XQ
IE DFJ
VIU O
AXIS DW
BJE IJ
BKX SM
I YA
My brain keeps trying to unscramble words - I, Axis, Believe (though there are no Ls...) - but this is diabolical.

Anyone else working on this month's box? I'm stuck at the website. Need a nudge or two with the "code" and the "keys".

Banging my head on the mancala puzzle - which, by the way, is awesome as I played this as a kid... I make the moves from the website and end up with a grid as follows: R - 0 | K - 1 | S - 4 | B - 1 | M - 0 | N - 2 | A - 1 | P - 0 | O - 0 | T - 3 | W - 2 | J - 1 |
Following the link to the 'contact me here' I try to log in. I know the password is topprice from the pigpen/Masonic cipher, though I'm not sure if there's a space or not (topprice v. top price). The issue is the username prompt: Number of stones: 5-3-4-3 I tried looking at it from the way of how many stones were in each pile. So for player one it would be 2030, or for player 2, 1141. Alternatively, maybe I've done the mancala wrong, and it should be what letter (or letter ciphered from the coin) has 5 stones on it? But in my answer none of them do... I'm trying NOT to go to the detectives on this one, after a particularly embarrassing (to me) incident with the crane. (still can't believe I missed that). Nudges please - still trying to regain some semblance of puzzling self respect

Nudges please - still trying to regain some semblance of puzzling self respect  First make sure you set up the board as you're to instructed by JOontherun instructs. Then take note of the number of moves JOontherun gives.
