Summer 2009: Starts June 20!

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

Will you participate in this contest?

Yes, I plan to collect every secret word and access all bonus material!

I think a "Worst Episodes Ever" collection would more describe the original Lost Episodes album, many of which really were "lost" because of their poorer quality. Personally, I think the remaining "unreleased" episodes are for the most part all good/great episodes (including Lights Out...)

I assume he meant they didn't have a good cassette copy left. I hope they didn't trash their master reels of the Officer Harley episodes (although it does appear they're just using old cassette tapes so far for the new releases.)

Well, if they really don't have a good copy, some of us around here have tapes they could borrow...

The "Ultimate Secret Word" is up at the podcast blog as of August 27, though I'm having a hard time figuring out which word goes into the field? Help, anyone?

Our family missed the first 4 EPs of the Washington Secret Word contest. I don't see them as available to listen in the archived EP area at FOF. Any idea where we can link to those episodes to listen for the secret words?

We missed:
Toyman
Mystery At Tin Flat
Something's Got to Change
No Way Out

Thanks.

That is a good prize, and I'm
certainly feeling more comfortable with Andre already. I'm disappointed at the lack of a new intro theme, though; I thought for sure that it would be redone after the hiatus. Maybe when season 51 proper starts, they'll introduce it?

Tomorrows prize is not very exciting, probably my least favorite yet since
I can make any picture work not just these. Easiest password yet too. Looking at the Ultimate Word Clues we know that the next word started with a 'C' and the guess is pretty obvious.

Yep. Using my signature for a shameless plug. But trust me. If I can be so arrogant, I think it'll be worth your time.

The high-resolution art is a great treat, but I wish they'd release the artwork for every album, free of any text. I can dream, can't I?

I enjoyed the final prize! \:D/ Very sneaky of the AIO team making us poke around on the Official Darien's Rise site in order to come up with the ultimate secret word. For those having trouble, which step is giving you problems? The Marus map part? Feel free to PM me for a nudge in the right direction.
