Seems like a solid guess. Is it readily available?

Oh shit! I thought it was in stock at Merchbar, which made me feel like it was, but I see know that I was wrong.

I had a brief moment of excitement when I realized Joseph Dalton Hooker was, in fact, a Hooker With A Penis and figured all the undersea imagery would fit well with the sinking of California, but unless @Colonel_Angus knows something we don't Ænima is, of course (and sadly), not readily available.

Is there any reason for these different colors?

I'm so lost. But since I ruined the fun last time, I'm guessing that was the point.

What do you all think of the two clues (four and thirteen) that are quotes from other threads?

The first is about Tabakin (maybe a red herring) but then says "...I think it's time for him to return to the US from his European Adventure." Maybe we're looking for an expat that's living abroad?

But since I ruined the fun last time

I don't know if it needs to be said, but you didn't ruin anything. I was just not adequately prepared, and you played it exceptionally.


That being said:

I'm so lost...I'm guessing that was the point.

Yes.

Good catch!

It looks like it's the type of clue:
Brown - N&G quotes
Yellow - Darwin Letters
Red - Music Videos
Blue - coordinates to underwater ruins/museum

Which is where I lose it, because:

Purple - Video Game screenshots, and
Green - One video game screenshot, and the Great Wave of Kanagawa painting <we've got a japanese connection here?.

As I said, completely lost.

I was really looking forward to your revenge contributions this month.
