I've got all the scrolls decoded and figured out part of one of the riddles and (I think) most of the crossword, but I'm really confused as to how this all comes together. Are we supposed to PM Killix with the riddle answers and whatnot for pieces, or will the answers and whatnot basically tell us the pieces when we figure them out?... Or is the answer to that question something I'm going to figure out by finishing the puzzles? o.o; (This is my first birthday puzzle heheh)

The scrolls (once decoded) will tell you how to find the pieces.

I was recently asked if is against the rules to ask for or post hints in here.
I want to let everyone know that it is indeed okay to discuss the puzzle and post hints in this thread.
(I have to admit, I wonder how many people have solved scroll #4. XD It's probably the most obscure, due to me having to change the hiding spot at the last second. Curse you Proboards!)

(I have to admit, I wonder how many people have solved scroll #4. XD It's probably the most obscure, due to me having to change the hiding spot at the last second. Curse you Proboards!) Well, I have not and that one has me a bit stumped. Not that I'm faring much better with the others... I solved crossword, fishing, and scrolls #2 and #5. With #3 I am most likely overthinking things...

#4 I thought would be the easiest, but when I didn't see it in the spot I thought it would be, I have no idea XD;;

I'll give everyone a hint, since #4 is so obscure and not what was originally planned:
This type of hiding spot has been used in previous birthday puzzles, if you look back at the old Birthday Puzzle event threads, you might find out how to solve this one.

I thought they were hiding people and not hiding places. So I sent a message to someone about a particular clue because I thought it referred to them, and they said they didn't even know this event was happening. >_>
...so time to rethink my strategy.

X3 The assistants are NPCs/characters, not actual forumers. That would've made for an interesting twist, though.

Can I ask people who post hints to please post them under spoiler tags? It's really nice that we can help each other, but for some of them I would really like to figure them out on my own, instead of stumbling upon a hint that does some of the work for me. Thanks. ^_^

That's the only hint you'll be getting from me. X3
EDIT: Stained Glass is up.
