Puzzle Discussion
So when did they drop Cryptopix to 3 points? Rhetorical question since obviously the answer is "tonight". Why, though?
the puzzles were mixed up earlier
So were the points. Just looked at the points I got for solving this...
Something was wrong tonight, because this puzzle still wasn't showing up on the Daily Fun frontpage when I found it in the "see all". I solved it in 27 seconds and was a measly 96th. I guess everyone else knew better than me where it was hiding. hmph
my fault, due to software change it wa published but not featured
what that means will soon be clear...
127th. Not too bad.
Ok... this puzzle JUST came up at 7:45 west coast time. Ive been sitting here for 46 minutes I caught it JUST as it came up, took me 18 seconds to answer and I was the 121st???
No way. How long was this up for before we on the west coast saw it?
[5] would that be why we're missing the bottom feeder?
[7] The puzzle was PUBLISHED at 7, like normal... but it was not FEATURED on the Front Page until 7:45 (after I e-mailed Aaron :)).
This is part of a new set-up for another improvement coming soon (?) to the Tanga puzzles and how they're going to be available.
FWIW, no one got any bonus points for this one tonight.
[9] are you sure?
You solved this puzzle in 22 minutes and 38 seconds and were the 83rd Tanga member to solve it. You earned 17 points for solving this.
Um... salt please? I've got "RockServeStir," which is obviously not right.
[11] Take another shot.
Never Mind
Thanks [11] and [12] that was the clue I needed.
[9] What [10] said...
You solved this puzzle in 13 seconds and were the 91st Tanga member to solve it. You earned 9 points for solving this.
Not sure how it was calculated, but it looks as though I got 6 bonus points on a 3 point puzzle.
[10] LOL, I'm not sure about anything here, anymore :) Looks like you did get the bonus points (as did others), which is good, since you were supposed to tonight, but also bad, since you weren't supposed to get them for non-featured puzzles :)
Ah, the ongoing experiment that is Tanga.
I do know this, though: past unsolved (by you) puzzles should now be worth 3 TP instead of 1. In case anyone's interested.
For the record, mine said:
You solved this puzzle in 15 seconds and were the 4th Tanga member to solve it. You earned 100 points for solving this.
more salt? i'm slow.
This took forever to load and I still got it with only half the picture showing. Cute!
I always start my puzzle viewing from the archive page instead of the daily fun page.
http://tanga.com/daily-fun/archive
all of the puzzles (featured or not) show up there when they are published.
[11] and [12]'s correction help. [11] might be too salty.
FWIW:
You solved this puzzle in 37 seconds and were the 440th Tanga member to solve it. You earned 10 points for solving this.
I'm usually awful at this stuff, but I solved this one before the image even finished loading.
Peter Griffin's version with the acoustic guitar was awesome!
gigidi gigidi
Down, down, down!
man, I hate going on vacation for the weekend to do puzzles I can't solve when there are perfectly good ones here. I got that one before the image finished loading. cute!
are we supposed to have heard of this before???
