My thumb might be broken...

Hi all:

I'm very confused after reading all the postings here about the 1cm placenta. I have manage to decipher all the clues and follow them step by step to finally turned the Isis a few times. Is this small opening of the sphere in the middle ring (I believe it's 1cm wide) significant?

What exactly is the 'placenta' as interpreted in relations to the Isis?

I also see what seems like one small circular hole in the gap.

Nothing in the provided clues mentioned it. I even interpret Clue #10 that the last stage should be done smoothly - definitely NOT the state my fingers are in right now.

BTW, I have the US version of the Isis from Sharper image so I'm not sure if the clues are the same as the UK version...

PLEASE HELP - my fingers are begging you...

Also, is it part of the torture that my sweaty hands makes the Isis extra slippery and loose my thumb's grip on the plunger????

Thanks in advance - SERIOUSLY,

ken

Your still OK. Forget where you are now and do it all over again.

You'll get it. :)

The hole you mention is part of the Isis mechanism, I think (I'm not looking at it now).

Thank you for the comments. I seem now to be stuck on Clue #6 now. I worry maybe I loosened the Isis too much for this step to work? Should I try Clue #11 again?

HELP!!!

Please explain inside of the 5% club only how you opened the ISIS without knowing about the 11th clue.

And could you edit out of your post anything about the ISIS mechanisms.
