" TRIDENT --> RED TINT I think that is unlikely to be intended, but it's a "red" in the room, which is enough to make me mention it. "

" Might have something to do with the raven. "

" That narrows it down "

" might be related to a puzzle "

" So why is this the only partially composited room offering an oblique angled (dutch shot) perspective? "

" I understand that the summaries on the backs of books are often added by the publisher rather than being written by the author. I'm not sure if that is the case here; the publisher would probably be overstepping boundaries to write it from the perspective... "

" What are you even arguing about here? Let’s all just agree: If you add letter[s to a p]art of the text, you can make an anagram of the name of an object that i[s (to b]e generous) vaguely shaped (departs) like an object associated with... "

" Woodrow Wilson? $100K (SLOOK) ($100,000 dollar bills) (ING) Eye In G? "

" I think the real sign, while looking through the obvious, is one and the same. "

" What are you even arguing about here? Let's all just agree: If you add letters to a part of the text, you can make an anagram of the name of an object that is (to be generous) vaguely shaped like an object associated with the... "

" That’s very observant of you. "

" The singular is never mentioned in the room "

" Amphorae is plural. Amphora is singular. "

" It's "amphorae." (Did you know that "amphorae" is pronounced "am free?" It's true! Look it up!) "

" I guess no one has figured out the “Amphora in me” hint. “Amphora in me” is an anagram of “piano hammer”, which has the same hourglass shape as a bowling pin. "

" Maybe the text is written to insinuate stopping like with the "overdone" and all that as some sort of meta subliminal thing that's not really part of the puzzle, but "dressing" in a way? Like something thematic about the text to make it seem like... "

" The letters have to be there before we start looking for info in them "

" I do think the sign with the bird, cloud, moon and thunderbolt is just meant to indicate "things in the sky." We took a wrong turn by trying to read the shadows for answers. More simply, the door to 30 has "sun" ("svn" technically, but... "

" I know I’ve been the king of “maybe we should think about this” lately, without offering any actual productive thought, but… When we talk about the confirmed solutions in this book, we for some reason neglect to mention the solutions that are confirmed even more... "

" But it doesn't really clue "stop," is the point. Any block of text like this is highly likely to have lots of words "hidden" in similar ways. This would never, ever appear to be anything if there weren't a giant octagon on the floor--and even... "

" “Amphora in me”, I pronounced; empty, of course. If you think of the Maze as a music box, cacophony is its product, and the music box was hard at work. "

" “Nary a Soul TO b(P)e seen,” said the firST,(O)Peering into the gloom. "

" Well, I guess it's not really parallel. He wanted to clue STOP in several different ways in this room; this is one way he thought of to clue STOP. "

" Artistic satisfaction, money, recognition, etc., that's not really a related issue. "

" Why bother making a puzzle book? "

" I don't think it's mysterious why he would include the message "stop"; that seems like a reasonable thing to communicate, whether for the realistic consideration of the guests' predicament or just as a warning of the sort the Trap has elsewhere. What I'm saying is... "

" POltergeiST "

" (Ugh, proofread before you hit the Post Comment button.) "

" I think this is a great find and increases all the other "STOP" stuff in here. To me and it's pretty clear why "STOP" makes sense for this room in-world. It's one of the two safest rooms in the Trap, if you measure safety by... "

" Why did you rearrange the words, only to once again rearrange their first letters? "

" Same The Is Group Every acronymical anagram (STIGE = GEIST: the spirit of an individual or group) "

" I think it's very interesting. This phrase is one we've picked out on MazeCast before as being sort of a non sequitur, and it's also easy to imagine taking the letters "S T O P," wanting to hide them in the text, seeing you could... "

" did u just call me "pink vewatkin" "

" I'm not sure how hard finding short words would be in selections of text like Maze- but this feels really solid actually "

" Actually pink sock puppet, thinking something over (weighing the pros & cons) for a few minutes before taking action is a sign of intelligence & wisdom. "

" We all have our roleS TO Play. "

" "Significant"? "

" That's not what coincidence means, and a straightforward mathematical operation is neither a coincidence nor what you are describing. Why do you see the number 405 as significant? "

" Alright sock puppet, let me dumb it down for ya. “Coincidentally” means in a way that results from chance despite being very unlikely. Don’t think too hard on it. I know how your head works sometimes and I wouldn’t want you to get all bent... "

" "Coincidentally"? "

" The letter “o” appears 27 times on this page. Coincidentally, when you multiply the value of the letter “o”, which is 15, together with the number of times that it appears on this page, which is 27, it equals to 405. "

" Usually I'm adverse to making alphanumeric connections from words in rooms, but this one is a special case where this room references the alphabet, so nice work! "

" This is a curious yarn that I am going to tell you. "

" Well, we do know something like this is at least in room 5, by the guide to indicate there are two correct answers. Hmmm, maybe it refers to how one of the options is 4? And how, since it's guaranteed you already passed it, the... "

" They haven't all been taken off. The trees have been trimmed so that they extend only upward and along lines parallel to the walls of the hall. They are a decorative element. I'm not sure why they have no leaves. 'Gone hath the Spring, with... "
