Gooooogol Conglomerate (Google Puzzle Hunt) puzzles up
We've now posted all the puzzles and solutions on the site.
Feel free to take a look at:

http://www.gooooogol.com/puzzles/

For the puzzles that required components that are no longer
available, be they physical components, servers that aren't
running, or interaction with the environment, we've done our
best to write a simulation of the environment using client-side
javascript. Competent programmers will, of course, be able to
read the javascript and spoil themselves with the answers; rest
assured that none of this was possible during the actual hunt!

Most of the information was cobbled from our own notes and
some was hastily written up in the last two weeks, so there are
bound to me some minor errors here and there. We may not be
very proactive in fixing them -- it's been a year-long project for us
and we're all kinda tired. :-)

Enjoy!

Heh, it's nice to see the correct solution for Illuminatus. In the playtest we got the flavor text, the ASCII, the text in the eye, the first line of the keywords, and after a while figured out the word square without the last word or the grid, and after even longer (because the person who did the word square was not Illuminatus!-savvy) another person noticed the diagonal of the word square.

Glad we helped you find that issue with the keywords.
