      <description><![CDATA[Seconded, I mean, people just typing spoilers (eg The dedication from the proof, ahem!), isn't really on - not least as there may be people stuck on earlier stuff who don't want all the answers on a plate.

Typing out the answer also strikes those of us who struggled as being unbearably smug. Maybe it's just a cultural thing?

EDIT--&gt; I've stuck up a new thread that should enable people to avoid spoilers. Of course, if they want to be given the answersI've made it clear that they are lying about, so at least those who want to engage brains can do so. If anyone posts a straight answer in that thread I will get *very* annoyed (not least as it took me three-quarters of an hour to sort it out with my modem timing out every five minutes and losing the lot), and may resort to sarcasm...  

Can I suggest nobody posts any more to these threads with direct spoilers in, to try and keep them out of sight? Or is that being silly?

EDITED EDIT--&gt; Don't answer that here - please!

      <description><![CDATA[we normally try to give hints, or direct people to another thread with hints, this kind of spoils it...

      <description><![CDATA[Help, pls.

I've made it as far as 'How far did the dodo walk into the Forest of Dean?' in the puzzle, and am now stuck. I'm not British, I'm not a dodo, please help. Any hints? Any clues? Anything? Thanks :)]]></description>
