Mar 06, 2008 One Word Wonder Puzzle

You solved this puzzle in 48 seconds and were the 18th Tanga member to solve it.

mmmm delicious

i know i'm a math geek because: i got this without googling it. And could list off 8 more words in the series.

[2] Pretty sweet (well, it isn't salty :-)

You solved this puzzle in 4 seconds and were the 61st Tanga member to solve it.

Wow ... it's been a while since I solved a puzzle in 4 seconds.

Nice puzzle!

I'm not a math geek - had to work at it a little - but a good puzzle!

Interminable does not work in this context. [endless, ceaseless, perpetual] Luckily, the rest was easy enough.

Glad you all enjoyed it.

Being an engineer paid off!

It's clever.

I got it, but I don't see how the puzzle works. I just tried a whole bunch of thins that sort-of related, but the closest I could find from the puzzle was 6.3467, which has absolutely no relation to the answer.

edit: never mind, I just saw it.

You solved this puzzle in 27 minutes and 37 seconds and were the 108th Tanga member to solve it. You earned 10 points for solving this.

awww... [2] did it for me.

You solved this puzzle in 11.00100100001111110110 seconds and don't see any rational way to get the answer.

I was stumped until my 15 year old son looked at it and said MMMM....

Ah, I would have expected this puzzle next week...

Publishing a similar type of puzzle last year (see http://www.tanga.com/puzzles/222-1-31-2007) helped me get this one quickly. Nice solution method here.

[16] Ah, I remember this puzzle! It is one of the ones I went back to solve. :)

Great job. Bumped me over 1000 tanga points!

My first thoughts lead me to think of Homer Simpson, still not getting it.

Mmm....

I understand that it tastes good, but I'm just not getting it. Is there a particular solve method, or is it just word association?

Got the solve method, but it gives me gibberish

All the salt here makes this easy, but what is the puzzle?

I guessed it from FMHG but have no clue as to an actual method of solution...

put me in the "no idea what the puzzle is even though I managed to guess an answer" group. I really don't take pride in being able to guess it or stumble upon it. It generally bothers me when I still can't back solve.

Finally solved it, but can someone please explain to me why it's not racata?

nice one, scoutmom. special to me as it represents my son's birthday!!

wow, nice one

I, too, am in the "answered, but not really solved" group at the moment. What we really need is the return of the "view solution" option for people who have answered puzzles. From comments above, I know there IS a method to this, but I presently don't see it. There are other nights when there are probably interesting facts and tidbits in the solutions, but I may never see them. Please, Tanga gods, bring back "view solution".

Edit: ... and I got it. Thank you, posting comment genie. But my plea still remains. Bring back View Solution.

I got the answer. But is there an actual solve method other than a word association?

[25] [27] [31] TG sent with solve method.

I just want to say that I am really pleased that my generic salt for the future thread was helpful with this one!

For anyone trying to figure out the solve method (and not already told), think "reverse-tanga" the clues.

huh... I was entering numbers until i realized that would be rediculous to try.

Nice. Too bad the answer is so easy to come up with by guessing. I guessed then reverse-solved like most everyone else. Still a fun one.

[32] Me too, please

There is a math-related day on March 14th

I got it by googling the list of words, and found the answer on the net somewhere.

clever. multiple ways to get to answer. figured out the intended methodology after getting the answer.

Thank you [2]
