Zion: Puzzles & Answers

Post by VDZ »

First of all, this is NOT a forum game. If you know the answer to one of these puzzles, send me a mail on Zion instead of posting in this topic. This post is just for some general information and answers of stuff that's already been solved.

In case you have no idea what you're talking about, the building descriptions of my buildings on Zion are puzzles. The first to solve them and send me a mail on Zion gets cash.

Scores:
koppie 1 (25s)
TheSeer 1 (25s)
massy 1 (10s)

Solved puzzles:
Lumengrid #1
Description: Cvjme jo uijt upxo. Zpv lopx zpv xbou up.
Solution: For every letter, write down the previous letter in alphabetic order. For example, C becomes B. The end result is "Build in this town. You know you want to."
Prize: 25 sheckles
Winner: koppie

Darksteel Forge #1
Description: Quality su steel ot for gnoleb a era very esab cheap ruoy price lla.
Solution: Read a word, skip the next, read a word, skip the next etc. You get the sentence "Quality steel for a very cheap price". Then take all the words you skipped, "su ot gnoleb era esab ruoy lla". Reverse that and you get "All your base are belong to us".
Prize: 25 sheckles
Winner: TheSeer

Darksteel Forge #2
Description: Roizc(6) Chum(3) Terbet(4) Izno(1) Is(2) Hant(5)
Solution: Each word is an anagram. The anagrams are:
Zoric(6) Much(3) Better(4) Zion(1) Is(2) Than(5)
Put them in the order of the numbers next to them. You get:
Zion(1) Is(2) Much(3) Better(4) Than(5) Zoric(6).
Prize: 10 sheckles
Winner: massy

Of course they're not as easy as just putting it into some translator then have it solve the puzzle for you.
