Any replies stating possible numbers for solving combinations, codes, etc. derived from clues must explain how they arrived at said numbers. If there is not an explanation in the reply then it will be ignored.
3 consecutive replies from any āplayerā with guesses regarding possible combination numbers without an explanation as to how it was figured will be muted. Essentially 3 strikes and youāre out. Donāt waste your time with frivolous fake/useless āguessesā and my time having to read them.
Man, chill. Itās not like weāre new users spamming or anything. This is everyoneās first time.
Seeing the number of teeth remaining on the comb between the broken spaces is 9, 1, 3 and 8 I would like to try the combination 9138 on the fridge lock.

Thank You!
That opened the small fridge.
- Inside is a green mug (the same mug in the photo of the old man).
- It has a frozen liquid inside.
For being a good sport, youāre welcome to another turn should you choose to take it. No need to wait till tomorrow!

Well, I assume most of us arenāt idiots. So what am I supposed to think when no effort is put into the solving the clues or not choosing another action that hasnāt been taken yet (i.e. progressing)? The only other option is people acting with wrong/bad intentions, and makes me think they have zero interest in actually playing the game.
Thereās nothing wrong with establishing some rules and expectations. Sorry if you felt singled out since I quoted your post, but it did work as a good example of what not to do. Once is not a big deal, but up to 3 times is justā¦ Yeah. Thereās no need for that.

Thank you.
I would like to look at the calendar, what can I see?
Question: can I move the calendar? Would that need another turn?

Happy 80th Birthday, Grandpa!
Deer hunting with Gramps!
on the last day of that month.
No need to. 
Edit: Youāre free to post what you think this clue is pointing to. You might come up with the right/single answer, or multiple possible answers. That way others can work with those results to see what it might work onā¦ whatever that is.
Edit2: Or let someone else work it out themselves.

Recap/Update. Here are the items remaining or found in the room so far.
This is the door to open to escape. Yes. It is locked. No, you canāt kick it down.
A bed is in the corner of the room, it has a wooden safety railing on the side
- A toolbox with a padlock (requiring a
) was found by looking under the bed.
An electrical outlet, a small fridge is plugged into it. 
A calendar is hanging on the wall

A large metal cabinet safe with a PIN pad
A small fridge with a combination lock 
-
the lock is a 4 digit combination lock
-
- Using the clue from the comb, inside the fridge was a Green Mug with a frozen liquid
A small purse
Done
- 3 coins: 2x Dimes (2x .10Ā¢) and 1x Penny (.01Ā¢)
- A small comb with 25 teeth, but some are broken
-
- The comb was a clue to the combā¦ ination lock on the fridge, 9-1-3-8ā¦
A small statue/bust on a shelf that is too high to reach.
A coffee maker but the glass caraffe/pitcher is missing. If youāre paying attention itās not plugged in. 
Thereās a picture on the wall of an old man dressed in camo and orange hunting cap, he appears to be in a forest, holding a rifle in one hand and a green mug in the other, while crouched down next to a bluetick coonhound.
The picture is not of any significance other than to give a reference to a few things in the room. It ultimately will not help in solving the room or affecting anything.

Free turns today (Sunday). I hope itās not getting confusing yet.
Iāll be putting a by items that have served their purpose. That way players will/should know they wonāt have to do anything else with/to them.
FWIW: I believe there are about 8 or more actions remaining.

Iād like to put the green mug in the coffee maker.

The frozen liquid meltedā¦ Whether that was due to heat from the coffee maker (that was the next intended action but, fuck it) or just sitting there for over 8 hours (after the RM woke up from his slumber), it revealed a key with a tag attached to it. No need to pour it out, Iāll get that.
The tag has the letters āTBā on it.
The old man mustāve dropped it in the mug by accident before placing it in the fridge so he could have it later, it was towards the back and froze. Oopsie.
I know this goes against the spirit of the game, butā¦ We still need a puzzle solved (the pin for the safe)
Then about 6 more actions. At this rate, termites will eat the door away before it gets solved.

So, is this it?
Years of hard work ended in less then a week?
The Forumās laziness to play surprises me.
Well, it was more likeā¦ maybe 30 minutes working everything out. But there were other things I thought of later. Like the photo of the old man or āGrandpa,ā or making sure that the fridge was plugged into the outlet (the liquid in the mug needed a reason to be frozen). I probably wouldāve put a table of some sort in the room, but I felt it wouldāve detracted from the other clues.
I was in a bad mood when I made the rule about leaving explanations for combinations.
āWhat if someone gives a correct combination without an explanation?ā
I think Iād accept it. It was mainly a way of having (whoever) explain how they arrived at a possible code or combination, even if it were wrong. Instead of 0001, since such a number couldnāt be derived from any of the clues.
Unless anyone choosing 0001 is like when you watch those fake mobile game ads, where whoever is playing is doing such a terrible job, that the person watching the ad thinks āI can do better than that dumb-dumb!ā 
Then theyāre downloading the mobile gameā¦ Or making an effort to solve a clue in an escape room forum game.
Maybe theyāre not so much lazy as the concept was boring or uninteresting. Whichever it was - itās unfortunate it turned out to be a flopā¦ and most of the people who gave it a 
didnāt even bother to play. As if to say, āCool idea, bro!ā And thatās okay. Nobody should feel obligated to āplayā.
Would I do this again? Nah. Iām thoroughly discouraged from attempting anything of the sort in the future. It does take a lot of planning and working out how one thing works with another or other objects. Some people might get confused or things switched around. So I donāt recommend it unless you do a lot of planning, then sit on it for a good while in case you think of something else to add, or if anything would need to be changed around.
