General Discussion » I need 19 more solves...
Now only 13 more solves needed.
Come on, people. You can do it!
If I could solve it again for you, tada, I would. Unfortunately, a solved puzzle is rather like a DEAD friend--you can visit it again only in your memories.
[2] create a new account :) you can then solve all the puzzles again...
[3] I have enough trouble keeping up with one account! ;-)
What is required to get points and how many will you get?
Unfortunately I already solved this one
[5] For an unfeatured puzzle, the puzzle creator gets 25 points when 100 people have solved it.
[6] That's right. Under a hundred solves makes for a cheap and free puzzle for Tanga. So now I need 12 more solves to make Tanga pay up for my hard work. And this one was difficult to make, believe me. Hope y'all liked it.
Or you could solve OTHER puzzles and get the 25 points you want quicker.

[16], [17]Considering that there are plenty tada has NOT solved yet (profile says only 251 solved at this point)
If I were to beg, that might be different, as I only have 8 unsolved puzzles total on tanga currently (and 5 of them are hypercrosses I got frustrated with- the others are puzzles that only appeared in the last day or so, so I haven't had time to really work at them yet) but I still think that it wouldn't be appropriate.
any reason the number of comments isn't a link on this discussion???
seems kind of weird

I only need 252 more solves to hit 1000 on this one:

Come on guys, let's do it!
Now hatemachine needs only 251 more.
Do you get points for hitting 1000?
Oh, yeah, that's right.
Maybe mine are too hard for a lot of solves, I don't know.

I'm not a good puzzle solver and frankly a lot of Tanga puzzles are boring. I don't particularly enjoy racking my brain for an hour or more each night trying to solve an unoriginal or research intensive puzzle. Also for a while I lost interest in Tanga due to "life's" problems getting in the way. My low solve amount is due to these factors.
I really get more enjoyment out of creating puzzles, which I have slacked up on as well. I guess I am trying to point out to Tanga that puzzle creation is harder than puzzle solving and therefore deserves points for them if they are published (featured or unfeatured) even if they don't get 100 solves or any solves at all.
I'm sorry for coming off as "begging". I was just having some fun in a weird way. Tanga points sure don't mean that much. It just establishes an arbitrary goal that can be a competitve and relative thing.
This particular puzzle is my favorite due to its coming together in an intricate way by some brute force searching and time intensive thought in order for it to come out as I had originally conceived it. The satisfaction of achieving ones goal in a simple puzzle to bring a little enjoyment to total strangers around the country is well worth it. Y'all's constructive comments are always welcomed and encouraged. Thanks.
BTW...I want my Tanga points!

100 SOLVES! TADA!
Thanks everyone for your hard work and dedication. I've never seen such a fantastic group effert just to get me 25 Tanga points. I promise to use them wisely. If I could tip you all some points I would, but I can't, so I ain't.
Thanks again.
