A for all its worth, if you look at your order confirmation, there's a link to the status of the order. I hadn't received my notification, so I checked my status and there it was.

A couple minutes later I was oohhinng and awhhing, and contemplating drinking coffee and staying up all night folding.

Great book Nicolas and if any of the authors (or vog members for that matter) are reading this thread Great stuff!)

I started with Nguyen's tortoise and now I can't stop folding them. A great design with a sequence that reminds me of Komatsu's designs. Easy to fold from just about anything of intermediate thickness from 15 cm up.

Every Passion Origami Book has a code in it. If you crack it and send it to Nicolas you get access to some exclusive content.

Hi All
If you crak the secret code, you will discover, in exclusivity, the new model by Quyet, an humming-bird and will receive the CP from to fold it ! it's worth to try to crack it!

Only one person find it for now !
Who will be the next ? (dont send me random word because anyway, I will ask you how you find it). Please don't share the secret here in order the game continue for everybody.

Happy new year

Nicolas

Nicolas and his " co-conspirators" have consistently devised some elaborate, challenging, but eminently solvable secret codes for his books.
They will require problem solving skills, patience, tenacity, mathematics, logic, an eye for detail, and critical thinking skills.
Random guesswork will doom one to premature edification... :oops:

After all is said, they are quite enjoyable, as well as a rewarding exercise.
Many of the rewards, in the form of diagrams/cps , are welcome treasures, oftentimes unobtainable, or difficult to find, elsewhere.

It is certainly worthwhile to attempt to solve these secret codes, if you're up to the task.
May I wish success to all who cope with the mountains & valleys of Life,
with all its peaks & depths, as well as Origami .

Sometimes Nicolas will send several, sometimes less . More often than not they seem to be diagrams , depending on which secret code , from which book, one solves.
No, you don't have a choice of any sort.
And yes, before you grapple with the hummingbird CP, solving the secret code will take a fair share of your time.
Only a relative few actually solve these challenges. Many try ...
Cheating or getting the answer from a friend is highly frowned upon, and unethical behavior can easily be ferreted out, and is never a sound way to conduct oneself.
