@mirangu1 has posted a website of geometry problem solutions for the problems that he and I had jointly designed and edited, a subset of size 204. The new site is called buck.mirangu.com
Dear geometry lovers, After almost 5 years, we end puzzle production. We both intend to move on to new activities. Thank you all puzzlers for your interest and beautiful solutions. Please feel free to visit our archive at mirangu.com. All the best, Marshall and Rik
