HELP: Zork 2 and 3...

NO, this is not the first time I have played these games.  In fact, I
solved all three of the original Zorks not long after they were released.
(Long... ago...)

Problem is:  Lately I have been bored out of my mind and have decided to
try them again.  Zork I was easy.

Zork II I finished, but I was ten points short! 
Does anyone know how I could have won with ten points missing?  And how
I can get those ten points?

Zork III: posed some difficulties at first, but now I am almost done with it.
Problem... I can't get through the Dungeon Door!  How do you do it?
(Past the guardian statues...) 

I hope SOMEONE will remember how to do this stuff...

Hehehe...  The only way to solve it is to do all the things that would get you
all the points, BUT, you lose 10 points every time you die...

Did you die at all in the game? ;-)

Sheesh, set the dial.
