PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Solution to the final cryptex" |
Does anyone have an idea of what the 5 letter word might be that opens the final cryptex? I think it may be the word Brave. The main theme in the last episode was the star-spangled banner. The last word in the song is brave, kinda like how this is the last puzzle. That makes sense of the clue "the key is free", because free is the last word in the line before (land of the free). It also might be the word Three. There are three teams left and each team has three people. Weren't there three tiles in the center of the floor in the vault that the Geniuses were in? Our government has three branches, but I doubt that has anything to do with it. Does anyone else have any ideas?

I was thinking it was "scott", as in "Francis Scott is the Key". It would help if we knew what they had already tried. You know they've been trying random words since they got them.

As soon as the cryptex came up, I turned to the people I was with and told them that I would guarantee that it was "stars." Cardboard-Host's comment was that "It's been in front of you all along" -- as in, they have always dealt with stars in the vast majority of their clues. They had also just put a token with a star into the door to open it up. You could say that they had to put it in front of them in order to get into the room.

Yeah, that makes sense. That would explain the pointless star counting on the canoe ride. Did anyone see stars in the crypt? If not, it could be a looong wait for all 3 teams as they try to find the answer at random.

Thats a great idea. That sounds better than my idea or anyone elses. I wouldn't be surprised if stars was right. For once I wish I lived on the east coast, cause I still have 3 1/2 hours to go. The suspense is killing me. Go Air Force!

I'm thinking the word is Mason, there appears to be the Free Mason symbol on the end of the cryptex. Many of the founding fathers were Free Masons.
