Seems like the TANG puzzle a while ago.
Is this a photoshop/print out puzzle? I think I get it, but I don't think I have the time for it... :(
[1] yum
I think I would rather finish tiling that floor from the puzzle awhile back.
when these were worth more points, it was more fun...
I found a clue in there but I don't know what it means...

Very nice. Similar to a puzzle from long ago.
We have a map, kinda, but not sure how to get it to all work out.
I have the clue (at least one anyhow) from the puzzle but have no idea what that is eluding to. All I could think of was [the children's song]. Am I missing a clue or does the answer derive purely from the sole clue revealed?
The funny thing is, this was taken at Woodstock and my dad's picture is there!
Not.
[9] Same place, figured [children's song] man had to be the answer...
[EDITED]
Is there significance to the fact that all the images on the border, i.e. pieces, are reversed?
EDIT: Well, not all of them, but a lot.
It took you 17 minutes and 50 seconds to solve this puzzle.
You were the 2nd Tanga member to solve this puzzle.
Cool, duuuuuuuuuuude.
# It took you 20 minutes and 46 seconds to solve this puzzle.
# You were the 3rd Tanga member to solve this puzzle.
Whew! That was an eye-croggler.
That should ahve been worth more. I know they aren't anymore, but it gave me a headache.
6th again.
Doh! After rethinking it... [10] helped.
Yes, thanks [10]...kept me in the Top 10...
[12] Yes
[16] Glad I could help, even though I have no clue about it. I started mapping the triangles and got jibberish.
hmmm, this puzzle actually only took me about 25 seconds. I didn't bother to figure out how to solve, I just started typing in things related to the picture. I wasn't really up for thinking too much tonight anyhow so I'll have to take a whack at it later or just wait for the solution tomorrow.
[20] LOL, I tried a list of about 15 words and nothing has worked. After several minutes of triangulating, I have had enough.
[20]
Guessed the answer, but I don't feel like solving.
[10] and [11] saved me from doing all the work. Thanks!
Rrf. I don't know enough about the event to guess words, and...well, to be honest, I took a look at this puzzle, considered it for about 30 seconds, and just said, "Not going to be worth it." Trying to match that many little pieces of faces into the picture is going to be more drudgery than fun, I'm afraid. No offense intended to the puzzlemaker; it's just not my cuppa.
* It took you 34 minutes and 40 seconds to solve this puzzle.

Wow that was tough! My eyes hurt now. The last part should have been more obvious to me, but it took me a few minutes to see it.
It took you 15 minutes and 20 seconds to solve this puzzle.
wow... my eyes hurt from that one! those of you who got the answer from guessing know alot more about the event than I did! I had to do it the slow way.
Been photoshopping for about an hour (off and on) - eyes are crossing - ready to go the guessing route...
great puzzle...once you get the first clue, the rest is easy. The hippies had me going right, then left, and then all around and all finally seemed to work out.
Leadfoot, GM sent
Wow, 2.5 hrs and # 71!!!
Agree, (2) once you figure out what to do, it's just footwork. And no mud this time!!
Wow. I didn't know my puzzle was going to be up last night. I guess I should check my e-mail more often...
[1] You are right about this being a similar puzzle from long ago. I always liked that solve method and wanted to do one that was similar.
Sorry it was so small, I wanted it to be bigger, but the 500x500 pixel size forced me to cram it all in what little space I had.
For those of you stuck here's a little salt:
Look at each side of the triangles separately (yet together) and you should see a clue to the first step.
Yeah, I got as far as finding the first clue about what to do next. But actually doing it seems more like tedious work than fun, so I'll pass on this puzzle and go back to my actual tedious work. :)
Okay everyone, let's hokey pokey...
Put your LEFT foot in, put your RIGHT foot out, put your BOTTOM in and shake it all about. You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around. That's what it's all about!
My attendance at the puzzle area here has been irregular lately. (What I mean is that the puzzles used to be a daily habit, now I stop by here non-periodically.)
I've been seeing comments like those above indicating that the points aren't worth anything anymore. Are you guys saying that there's no more auctions; no more hinting of Tanga Points being used for something in the future?

[32] I thought so too, at first. But then I realized that I could get it just by looking at the letters.
i got it by guessing - googled what I thought the event was and then just started pluggin in words. I have no idea how to backsolve
[31] is all the salt needed for this puzzle, then it's just working it out. Not hard, just time-consuming.
