After you touch the ground, did you get the spirit saying "Finish" with three wrong choices to choose from, or did you go back to the beginning.
EDIT: Ah, just looked at it. Yeah, there's an issue. If you mess up that puzzle one then the game gets out of sync. You'll have to refresh it when you do it wrong, or I've uploaded a fixed version here: http://www.kongregate.com/games/JohansenIndustr/a-...
THanks for playing and for your comments.
