I was out of town for 48 hours and it looks like there have been an explosion of forum posts, so forgive me if this has been addressed. I see that I got 250 free points for the Saturday "Part 1" puzzle, but apparently some people have also gotten 125 points for a "Part 2" puzzle. Can someone give me a hint as to what the part 2 puzzle is? I have a sopping wet tent, 3 wet sleeping bags, a wet dog, and a ton of laundry to deal with! I'll read all the forum posts eventually, but in the meantime any help will be greatly appreciated!

In addition to the crossword puzzle there is something around the boarder of the PTI page in the sports section... start there. Welcome back!

Part 2: Look for similarity between the "name" of the achievement that people are getting and the graphics around the Sunday puzzle page. If you got this week's "re-hatch an old egg" easter egg achievement, you'll be in familiar territory. Does that help without giving it away?

One more hint... As I was doing these puzzles, this song (YYZ) from Rush kept going through my head... Read a little bit about the song's introduction sequence on Wikipedia and you'll know why: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YYZ_(song)
