3. Grab a torch - enter the Labyrinth

Here's the way the Excelsior Labyrinth works.

  1. Once you read about a specific place, choose something you'd like to explore more thoroughly. Click on some hyperlinks; choose a route. Labyrinth threads will eventually lead to one or more puzzles, guarded by a description of the room or region. Some are hyperlinked and some are not.
    .
  2. Once you're in a pathway thread and have read the description, post a sentence or a paragraph about what you do, in character. You'll eventually come to either some sort of guardian, puzzle, or access to a monster for your collection (called a pawn).
    Don't choose more than three pathways total per week. This is to leave enough Labyrinth for everyone.
    .
  3. -Some puzzles have a limit on the number of guesses you may make per week.
    -The puzzle's discoverer has the sole right to try and solve it for a certain period (exact length revealed along with the puzzle). Then others are free to jump in, if they describe how they got there.
    -The answers to puzzles with only one solution will be censored by the forum. Subsequent guessers will receive a mini version of the pawn.
    .
  4. Summary text will outline these rules at the top of the puzzle.

Ready? Step inside.- Puzzles will be up sometime on September 30th.
