    # It took you 5 minutes and 6 seconds to solve this puzzle.
    # You were the 2nd Tanga member to solve this puzzle.

    Wowsers! That musta been a nightmare to put together.

  2. FileRadishSpire on Thu May 31, 2007 07:07 PM

    Very nice! Kudos to spamwise.

    (Fourth, in 3:26.)

    #It took you 9 minutes and 17 seconds to solve this puzzle.
    #You were the 5th Tanga member to solve this puzzle.

    WhooHoo!!!! First top ten...I guess it helps to be here early. Excellent puzzle!

    Cool.

    8th in 13 minutes.

    Got the first and second steps quickly, but it took me a while to see the answer.

    Is #2 even a real word?

    [edit: Okay, nevermind... it seems many of them aren't real words.]

  7. FileDuckiespamwise on Thu May 31, 2007 07:20 PM

    [6] Not really, but it's close enough and doesn't aversely affect the solution. There's a disclaimer in the solution.

  8. FileDuckiespamwise on Thu May 31, 2007 07:21 PM

    [6-edit] Many? Only 2. I guess that's 20%, but I'm not sure I'd call that "many". :)

  9. FileRadishThosw on Thu May 31, 2007 07:22 PM

    Actually did the last step first, 'cause I thought Spamwise was bein' sneaky. Then had to go back and do it the right way.

    13th.

  10. FileRadishSpire on Thu May 31, 2007 07:24 PM

    [ 6 ] Apparatus: You're right; it isn't a word.

    But I just did some quick checking, and there doesn't appear to be a real word that would work in its place, given the puzzle's constraints.

  11. FileDuckiespamwise on Thu May 31, 2007 07:27 PM

    [10] Yeah, I did more than quick checking. I had gotten so close that I decided to just coin a word or two. Hopefully that isn't too distracting to solvers. :)

  12. Avatar_profileGrapesetargum on Thu May 31, 2007 07:29 PM

    Nifty puzzle - I love how things just seem to emerge.

  13. ApparatusGrapesApparatus on Thu May 31, 2007 07:30 PM

    [8] You are correct. I "overexaggerated"

  14. SouthparkPepperTahnan on Thu May 31, 2007 07:49 PM

    "eglantinely"? (And: didn't we just have this puzzle two days ago?)

  15. Avatar_profileLemonNavyPalmerSt on Thu May 31, 2007 07:56 PM

    salt?

  16. Avatar_profileGrapesJasonLP on Thu May 31, 2007 07:56 PM

    * It took you 15 minutes and 50 seconds to solve this puzzle.

    This one feels like a victory. Very eglantine puzzle.

  17. FileStrawberryUofIKappaDelta on Thu May 31, 2007 08:14 PM

    I get the first and second steps... I got the word fore the third step, I just don't get how to apply it!

  18. Avatar_profileGrapesJasonLP on Thu May 31, 2007 08:17 PM

    [17]
    Then don't!

  19. FileStrawberryUofIKappaDelta on Thu May 31, 2007 08:20 PM

    damn it for bad spelling

  20. Avatar_profilePearhld1970 on Thu May 31, 2007 08:49 PM

    [17] Maybe there is nothing to apply.

  21. FileDuckiedavey3 on Thu May 31, 2007 09:20 PM

    * It took you 3 minutes and 18 seconds to solve this puzzle.
    * You were the 98th Tanga member to solve this puzzle.

    Another nice puzzle spamwise! Well done!

  22. FileStrawberryclemon79 on Thu May 31, 2007 10:11 PM

    VERY clever puzzle! I was baffled until I broke out Word to type them out.

  23. Thunk_logo_colorPotatofachanlahd on Fri Jun 01, 2007 04:55 AM

    Fun. I was doing everything correctly but couldn't see the forest through the trees on the second step so I had to use some BGG salt.

    Excel might help you better with this puzzle than Word.

  24. FilePotatoDandelion_Wine on Fri Jun 01, 2007 08:15 AM

    [22]That's what I did. [23]Good idea!

  25. Avatar_profileBananaDJKuulA on Fri Jun 01, 2007 08:39 AM

    I don't get what the second step is. . .but I somehow skipped it and went straight from the first to the last. (In fact, you might be able to figure out the last step just by looking at the puzzle.)

  26. Avatar_profilePlumsignasl on Fri Jun 01, 2007 08:45 AM

    SALT
    Get familiar with MID and Len function in Excel.

  27. Avatar_profilePearkdiddy13 on Fri Jun 01, 2007 09:56 AM

    Cool one. :)

  28. Avatar_profileKiwiSilverSabre25 on Fri Jun 01, 2007 10:05 AM

    tee hee, I liked that one.

  29. Avatar_profileGrapesJasonLP on Fri Jun 01, 2007 10:19 AM

    [26]
    Geez, that's a little overkill, isn't it? Just use notepad with a fixed-width font.

  30. Avatar_profileStrawberrysyracuselaxfan on Fri Jun 01, 2007 01:23 PM

    doesn't it bug people to have to use programs, print out the puzzles or call 800 numbers to solve these things?

  31. Avatar_profileGrapesetargum on Fri Jun 01, 2007 03:21 PM

    [30]
    There's no reason to do any of those things for this puzzle. It makes one step a tad easier...but it's certainly not necessary. I agree that the 800-number the other day didn't seem much like a puzzle.

  32. FilePlumSpanky on Fri Jun 01, 2007 06:42 PM

    Any clues

  33. PirateleadfootPumpkinleadfoot on Fri Jun 01, 2007 11:15 PM

    Spamwise!!!

    Love your picture in your user profile. It looks just like you!

    Wow!
