Hello, USA gamer

Opened the ISIS, The more and more I look on how this was designed the phrase " you sneeky ^%#^$@&" comes out my mouth. It is just amazing. Now its onto the puzzle for the prize. In comparison the ISIS was easy compared to the puzzle question. Been on this puzzle for a week now :x and I just can't seem to figure it out. Does anyone have a hint on how the Riddler Thinks ( and I don't mean Batman's question marked enemy) :cry:

Are password entries case sensitive, does passWORD mean one word, I feel like I just tripped back into the 95% pool.

Don't want a handout that takes the fun out of it, but a kick in the right direction would be welcomed.

The best way to figure out how the Riddler thinks is to read the stories about the already solved pyramids

For what it's worth - the riddles i've solved have been done entirely by using Wikipedia and Google.

You'll probably have to trawl through a load of irrelevant guff, though, before you find the Gem you're after!

The passwords I've come across so far have been single, long, complex words - ie. something you will never get just by randomly guessing.

Wiki and Google are definitely recommended, but you also need to let your mind think very far out of the box for some of the clues (eg the London pyramid location).

On the riddle I'm working on now I've found about 2 or 3 different timelines/events that fit it just too well. Kinda leads that make you jump up screaming "I got it" ......then NO you don't. Still lokking for for that diamond in the rough, but I fear I'm over thinking and walking right over it.

To get an idea on other puzzles/riddles that have been cracked which forum section should I browse? Just trying to see if my thought pattern is correct or do the riddles go as far as word jumbling to find out the real riddle?

I would start in Pyramids and gold coins ...
