Congratulations Li1gray!
And a note to everyone else working on the puzzle, there are instructions in the solution about how each subsequent solver shall "log" their solution here. I'll give it at least a week or so before posting the method of finding the solution (though not the solution itself).

Have to say Scott held my hand on this one - and I mean almost completely. I really can't take credit for 'solving' this puzzle! But thanks for the learning experience!

Congrats barnacle9 glad to see someone else solved it too! Fun Puzzle uh!?
This one was simple for me but SSO JOATS "Dancing Fall Angies" has me going no where...even though I know everything is there to solve it. Just some fall into place and others you have to think and try even hard on. i hope the cipher multi is not too hard to solve in the field. May have to delay my try just so i know help is near after driving 150 miles to get to it and then to come back. C
Congrats again!!! Li1gray

FYI... there are 2 distinct ways to solve Dancing Fall Angies. The method that I intended fits the hints, title, theme, etc. The "other" way was brought to my attention by another cacher who approached and solved it like a cypher. After they had solved it that way, I told them about the "real" method and got a response of, "Well, duh! I should have seen that right away. Would have been a heck of a lot easier."
(BTW... since it's my puzzle, I don't mind tossing a couple vague hints about in public. However, further discussion of solving this puzzle shouldn't be done on this forum! Send an email if you want to bounce ideas off me!)
Now... about the presentation puzzle, I will be posting the method to solving it tonight. So today is your last chance to work it out on your own!

SSO JOAT, sorry I was not planning on talking about the puzzle per se just that fact that some people see the way to solve the puzzles right away depending on the train of thought and prior puzzles. Your Dancing one I can stare at all the stuff and google galor and come up with nothing that seems to trigger my brain but the puzzle in the presentation I seen right away and just kept getting deeper and deeper into it until I solved it. I want to get down to Soldotna to grab the puzzles I have solved already and would love to grab you to go with me/us when I/we come down to the puzzle capital again. The last time I was down was with Cohofive if that tell you how long ago that was. See you soon or maybe at 200K

My current schedule has me in the Puzzle Capital from Nov 22-27 with a work visit to Anch on the 28th and I'll be tied up 29-30 for some training. Then I've got Dec 1-5 at home. Off to work for a couple weeks and I'll be back in the Capital from Dec 21 - Jan 1. January is a solid work month for me this year, so I'll be looking forward to a few days off at the beginning of February after putting in over 253 on-the-clock hours that month.
