neat! good thing I play alot of billiards!
I think you need to adjust the color balance of your picture. Your purples look a lot like blue.
On the plus side, even with that confusion, I was still #10 for both this puzzle and tonights cryptopix.
salt lol?
purples????
Edit [2] Thanks! It didn't make sense using blues!
good puzzle.
thank you [2]
[2] I agree.
Wow, that really threw me. I was certain that those 2 balls were blue.
[2] Thanks. I thought those were blue
[2] Thank you. I wouldn't have gotten it without that.
No, those *are* blue. They're obviously *supposed* to be purple, but they're blue.
Thanks [2]!
Same here, but great puzzle!
[2] What [8] & [9] said. Thanks.
[2] Thanks. I thought that they were blue and that was totally throwing me off.
The colors are (should be) orange, yellow, purple, red, orange, purple.
Yep... Was definitely stuck on blue!
inversion doesn't help.. although i found something cool
Even though I knew those were supposed to be purple, (thanks [2]) I still was using them as blue. Still got 67th!
Sorry about the colors all, compared to the other color in question in this set it was clear. Should have had some kind of comparison.
i dont get what to do.... there is no trick....
I am clueless too
[2] thanks
nice, thank goodness for wikipedia
Thanks [2]! I've played plenty of pool and I was sure I had the right idea, but didn't think the colors might be off.
was very confused with my gibberish until I read [2]. thanks
Edit: I forgot to mention... even with the confusion, I enjoyed this puzzle a lot. I tend to forget to say that.
Wow. Ok, it's a fun puzzle idea, congrats on the concept, but those colors are WAAAAY off.
Yep, those "blue balls" made this puzzle very painful..... for some...... LOL
Wow, had to go for the salt... once I saw it was purple, it was MUCH easier.
Elegant puzzle tonight, Steph.
[2] Thanks.. Definitely harder thinking those were blue.
[26] You know, I was gonna go there, but you beat me to it...
I think whoever owns those balls needs to take them back to the manufacturer and get their money back. Those things could cause someone playing a numbers-based game to lose!
"Hah, scratch!"
"What do you mean, I hit the 2 in!"
"That's a 5."
"What?!"
yep gave up last night with the blues
checked comments this morning and purple makes it work rather nicely
Thanks [2]
I would'nt have gotten this without the heads up on the color distortion. Thanks!!
Even with the color help, I'm a little lost here. I thought tanga numbers but I don't know what I'm tangaing.
[33] Check out [2] and [30]. They combine to make some good salt.
Fun puzzle!
