    Hi guys, I just thought I'd start a thread for the TG Puzzles because I'm sure others, like myself, are curious how to get in on the fun. I'm just wondering if anyone can let me know if there is a clue or riddle associated with TG Puzzle 2 that I'm missing. I've emailed Jon with the answers to the puzzles that I've discovered thus far and I'm waiting to hear back. I've also heard mention of a riddle associated with The Stand, but I haven't been able to find out what it is even after going through the puzzle steps leading up to The Stand. As I'm scouring the internet for possible relations to the book I'm just wondering if I'm missing some direction here. If anyone could just help me figure out how to get in on this it would be great. Cheers!

    You're attempting to start a thread, rather than a forum. Threads reside within a particular forum. For instance, this thread is within the Midwest forum.

    That said, in all honesty, I think you are spending too much time on these things, but if it makes you happy . . . :slight_smile:

    At this point, I have "For those who dream" and The Stand via the ISBN from the German in the audio file. I'm not sure what to do with it, but I'm re-reading the Stand. This will take me a while.

    Not sure what you all are doing, I already got my copy of the Copper Key by winning two out of three games in Joust. Now to just brush up on the WarGarmes movie...:sunglasses:

    http://www.tgbrews.com/599.193548387.html. Click on the hyperlink and it brings you to the audio file, which translates to 9780307947307. That is the ISBN of The Stand

    I was just thinking the other day, there hasn't been a new TG thread in a while. Damn me for thinking.

    Pretty sure the puzzles are just a pointless way of passing time until the beer is done...then at the end it will say "mug club members, check your email"....so basically if you are a mug club member just put your email to alert you when you receive a new message, then you won't have to follow the puzzles

    I wouldn't say pointless.

    I have fun doing the puzzles. Not everything has to be a way to score beer.

    But what if it's a puzzle that ALSO scores you beer!?!?!?! Don't settle for anything less than greatness, @mpdavis

    I'd say on a beer forum it does, and on a car forum it would be about cars, etc

    It is a puzzle put out by a brewery. Surely that is close enough to be talked about here.

    More importantly is it pronounced "Tbone RN" or does it all run together and get pronounced "Tboner'n"???

    Neither, more like Tboner, the N is silent

    Well in that case, is the T silent as well?
