Reeves Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I really wish there was a hint button we could use every day! Either this is fiendishly complicated or I'm missing something obvious :grrr: im guessing no one has solved it yet? ive been trying to figure it out for the past 6hrs. o_O mind boggling.

orifiel Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Perhaps the first domino could help us? ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakeru_Kyori Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I'm just not sure if you're supposed to do eliminations or play it ou like real dominios or what :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celestialchaos Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 ugh, so stumped with this i've figured out a few things, but still.... can we flip the tiles for words to work? i wasn't around for 2008 so i don't have access to the puzzles from that year.

7_rayne_7 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I'm still stuck on number one. I haven't even bothered attempting number two yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celestialchaos Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I'm stuck on that one too. I know what the items are, I know how they're related, but I can't figure out the numbers... :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haliaetus Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I'm stuck on that one too. I know what the items are, I know how they're related, but I can't figure out the numbers... :( I'm in the exact same boat. I've been trying to figure it out but I'm stumped. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7_rayne_7 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I'm stuck on that one too. I know what the items are, I know how they're related, but I can't figure out the numbers... :( That's where I'm at. I know that I'm missing something, something simple, but I can't find it. And I just took a look at the second one....ugh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celestialchaos Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Yeah, it's apparently something simple, but it hasn't clicked for me yet... Edit: I really thought I had it, but it was wrong :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masaryk Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Just one helpful hint for Puzzle #2. If you are going to cut out the dominoes to try to solve this, make sure you put a mark on them first, so that you know the top from the bottom. Once they are cut out, you can't tell the difference on some of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzy ♥ Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 The dominoes one was one of the harder ones from 2008 - thats why I put it so early, it gives people all month to solve it :) I did not repeat the hardest puzzle from 2008 though, which was the Thade one *cough* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthenia Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Puzzle 1: Done Puzzle 2: I was wondering if you lovely TDN staff might discuss disclosing the following information to us lowly puzzle solvers. - is there one domino that is in the right place? But please, supposing the answer is yes, DON'T TELL US WHICH ONE! Would you consider this a fair hint? Yours, Puzzle Fanatic Darthenia :laughingsmiley: P.S: -Gutted not to have known about TDN in '08 and missing Puzzle Challenge! :sad02: Darthenia and poptart123 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Charismatic Enigma Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Stared at both challenges for a minute each and have given up. Patience is not my strongest quality. Dinosawr, Rebecca~ and celestialchaos 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karmacow Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 This domino puzzle is a BEAST! Every word I've tried has been a bust. I'm need to step away from it for a while, I think. Maybe I'll have an epiphany while I think of something else (hopeful). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celestialchaos Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Now that some comments have been made, how are you supposed to read the domino puzzle? Is it 1 line of dominoes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masaryk Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I honestly can't give any more hints for this one, since I haven't been able to solve it yet. :/ @Darthenia: The Puzzle Challenge of 2008 is the main reason I became active on the TDN Forums. Best of luck solving all the challenges! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poptart123 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 12 hours into puzzle #2. Haven't made one letter of progress. What makes it so hard is I have no idea what the "theme" of the puzzle is. Like how in the game Wheel of Fortune or in Hangman each puzzle is given a category. That would be super helpful right about now. Reeves 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzy ♥ Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 As far as I'm aware none of the dominoes are in the "right" place - not intentionally anyway LOL I basically wrote the phrase then cut it up and moved them all around haha When I did this one in 2008, I didn't give a category and people still got it :P For whoever said last time's had a question mark, this one has an ! to mark the end xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reeves Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 its definitely a tough cookie to figure out. seems like all the words im trying to make didnt succeed. D: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejokerlaughsatyou Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Wow, the second one is wicked. :/ The first and third ones I understood with no issue... my math teacher gave us brainteasers like this all the time for warm-ups! I just had to look up what the items actually were in the first one, because otherwise I was clueless. But the second one is ridiculously hard! So glad we don't get penalized for taking more than a day to solve it. xP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luventas Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 One and three were no problem at all, but number two is killing me. ~.~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SophSoph Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 First and 3rd ones were CAKE compared to the second one. I'm gonna keep trying, but I honestly don't think I'll be able to get it xD I wasn't around in 2008, but if it was a question mark at the end it might have been a little bit easier because you know it has to start with a question word like who, what, when, etc. Reeves 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reeves Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Yeah. 3rd one i got it fast. Simple. But yeah, in the same boat with the majority with regards to puzzle #2.

The Bandit Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Yay, I solved a puzzle :D So number 2 is just a random muddle with no logic or anything? That is EVIL! Do we not a get some kind of clue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
