Puzzle #4: What's the Secret Word?
Ah, your vengence is swift and deadly. I must report an astounding lack of success on both your latest puzzle and the previous one. I'm all but certain that they are beyond my current ability to figure out unaided.

A hint please! I'm begging you! God man! For the sake of the children!

...er unless there are objections. Perhaps Ricky or GeeMack is on the verge of a breakthrough.
I'm working on them, currently eliminating incorrect ideas faster than I'm approaching any good ones. "On the verge of a breakthrough" might be exaggerating the point. I'm not ready for a hint yet, but if you want to put one up in invisible ink as a spoiler, I won't peek.

Sorry to leave you guys hanging for a week. Below is an invisible hint for my third puzzle, the one with all the questions:

Think back on the movie "Wargames," and ask yourself which question in my puzzle is not like the others.

Oh, shoot! I forgot! For the fourth puzzle, a decent hint might be:

Why do the letters L, R, U and D hold special significance?

Here's a couple of puzzle games I've enjoyed recently.

My Diamond Baby Another escape the room, puzzle game. See how quickly you can solve it. My escape time was 2 hours 8 minutes.
Express Maze Find the correct route through the grid.

And there goes another evening of my free time... Thanks dv82matt.
Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

Hey, I finally went back and got through level 38 of Gridlock last night!

Level 41 was completely blank for me, though, with no way to go beyond it. Odd, that.

I was having a rough time with level 8 of Express Maze before bed.

Alright Dave, or should I say uncle? Well, I'm going to...

Give me a hint to your second puzzle.
Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

Noob's Room took me less than 8 minutes. Perhaps that's to be expected.

I think I was around 9-10 minutes.

Did my hint help on my puzzle? Perhaps you'll want to tackle #3 or #4, and come back to #2 later.

Not really. A matrix of dots. I already knew that. But I feel I'm missing the point of the hint. So I'll let it sink in for a day or two, probably till chat.

Unless the answer is twenty...
