So would it be logical to assume that Gold is putting a gun to your head?

Yep, just after the trigger is pressed, just before you realize it

Well I looked at thinkgeek web site and YouTube. Wow it looks fun. So I said to myself what heck I'll order it even though it was expensive. Too crazy man. So any tips or if I open the box and say "OMG is that suppose to that" "Nooooo I think I broke it." "What is that?". So i can't wait to get it .

Hi Tinman,

Short of throwing it you will not be able to break it. It is a little stiff to move when it is "on track" but it is quite obvious when you have hit a trap or hit a wall - don't try and force it and you will have a great adventure!

My best advice is to map it as detailed as you can. It's not absolutely necessary for the blue but will give you practice for the others. I think it is essential for the bronze and higher.

Good luck

Couldn't agree more. As long as you don't go bashing it around or slamming the reset line (you'll understand once you get it in your hands) then you'll be fine. Just remember not to use excessive force and as kevin said, map it!

Enjoy!!

Welcome! and goooooo sloooowwwww.

[Alimorris]

Welcome Tinman to what is a great adventure!

I agree with the other comments, map map and map. Another good reason for mapping
is it gives you time to put it down and rest your hands (important) it will make the whole
thing more enjoyable.

We will all keep an eye on your progress....... have fun

But once you solve it, try and go FAST!

Just got my BLUE and its sitting at my desk at work.

Sent in my registration info, cant wait to start mapping/solving when I get home.

Must fight urge to solve while at work.

...Must fight urge to solve while at work.

Yeh, I think we all know that feeling

[ja_mobius]

I'm in the exact situtation. I just got my Blue this morning and now it's sitting on my desk here at work. I know if I pick it up just once I'll have a very hard time putting it down.

What the heck... work is overrated anyway
