"Wiz 1: What is the "CONTRA-DEXTRA AVENUE" clue?"

Since the board is quite calm, here a question that was just e-mailed to me.

Wiz 1: What is the "CONTRA-DEXTRA AVENUE" clue?

I have no idea myself... there are still things to be discovered about Wiz 1 after all these years...

Thanks

Contra = do not
Dextra = right

Translated ... don't turn right, always turn left (even if the only path is to the right, make three left turns instead of turing right to proceed).

Remember, two rights don't make a wrong, but a 3rd one will get you back on the freeway

It means "Don't Turn Right Or You'll Be Teleported Back To The Castle".

Contra - opposite
Dextra - right
Avenue - Go down path

go down opposit right path.
opposite right being left path.
i.e. turn left in big rooms.

Always turn left. all others send you back to the beginning, one step away from that teleporter. you can see where the teleporter leads to.

You are only as brave as the challenges you take on
