Frustrated with Trasok's Wrinkled Riddle

[Falirie]

I am unable to attempt to give Vlad an answer since I've already given him the paper.  I am also unable to delete the quest because it cannot be repeated. 

How do I get Vlad to talk about the riddle so I can attempt to give him an answer and complete the quest?

First Question - When did you initially start the quest?

You can file a petition in game, seek out a GM on IRC, or find me. We don't post spoilers on the forums.

I don't have the exact date, but I think it was summer of last year.  I posted on a guild forum about it in August of 2007.  This was probably a few months after starting the quest.

I opened a petition, as you suggested. 

The problem is not knowing whether the quest is bugged if you do not know the answer when giving the riddle to Vlad or if I have not found the correct trigger phrase.  I have tried multiple keywords, using the keyword by itself and about [keyword] formats. 

I tried the in-game help feature in August of 2007.  I was attempting to either find out the single correct trigger phrase or find out if the quest was bugged.  Each request was met with a response that they were not allowed to help.  It would seem that using the help tab would be preferable to an ooc request of Ojaveda at large for help with the quest.  One of the responses was that the help tab did not give spoilers, ask in game.  Another was it was only for tech problems, but the helper immediately closed the help request and I was unable to find out if it was a technical problem with the quest or I had not stumbled across the correct phrase yet. 

Can someone tell me if the quest is bugged?  If so, is it on the bug tracker? 

If not, could someone send me a private message with the trigger phrase?

I got a resolution to the issue with the quest.  The GM's resolution was you can't continue the quest without creating an alt for the single purpose of getting the item.  I consider this a bug with the quest.

That quest was bugged and probably was when you got it. As with the other quests, they get fixed but that does not always help the person with the problem. I failed that one because I never got the riddle at all from Trasok and the other guy told me too bad so sad.... NEXT!
That is one problem with taking a break you sometimes get problems left over which were solved while you were gone. The price of progress.

If you still have not completed the quest please find me on IRC, I would like to look at your case to see if I can figure out why - and make sure I didn't miss something in the update.

Well, you can ask me too when I am online.
