25 Platinum and 23 Gold Winners!!!

Click HERE to see the event champions!

This event is ended. If you want to provide solutions to your puzzle then post them in main thread.


Note to puzzle designers: Our goal is to get everyone through the event and try to avoid frustration. We want to see a lot of platinum and GOLD winners. Thus, have fun dropping clever hints in your GA thread and helping users that are stuck. We are all in a learning process-- we want our puzzles to be FUN, EDUCATIONAL, ENJOYABLE and promote COMRADESHIP.

com·rade·ship

ˈkämˌradˌSHip,ˈkämrədˌSHip
noun
the company and friendship of others with common aims.
"his greatest joy came from comradeship with others in the team"

Note: To solve the passcode puzzles use a copy of THIS PERIODIC TABLE. When it says Number focus on atomic numbers of elements. When it says Weight focus on atomic weight which is usually three digits after the decimal. If it says two elements added together to get a new element then add the two elements atomic numbers and get a new number--then find what is the element that has the added result. You will also need to goggle for common and scientific names of plants and animals. The first part of the passcode hint shows the format and special characters to use. (no passcodes have spaces)

Note: If you can't access the opening GA to the puzzle as you are BL then go to the ITH directly-- you will still get rewards for some GAs under each puzzle solved. (More explanation HERE if you can't see GA with puzzle because of BL.)

GO FOR THE GOLD!! (All puzzles in full event solved)

GO FOR THE PLATINUM!! (excludes Special Interest category)

Speaking about words: you're the second person in the last 24 hours whom I see writing coming, incoming with double m. Is it some dialect or slang, or feature of some language, or just a mistype in your case?

And question I would ask: HOW?!

Comment has been collapsed.

No idea, man. I just kept looking at the thing, and at first it looked like nothing, and then suddenly there was Bruce Willis, and I'm like, 'I see dead people' - and he's like, 'That's pretty tricky with that accent.'

Now I'm going to be crazy while thinking if that was hint or just few quotes from movies ;)

8 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

It is not a hint. So just take it as movie quotes. I don't know how much of a hint I'm allowed to give. But I would recommand to look at the number ranges.

8 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

I was thinking about that already. And I think I know what 2nd and 3rd number mean. But still have no idea what means 1st number, so I can't even check if I'm not wrong...

8 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

If you say it like that I'm pretty sure you don't know what 2nd and 3rd number mean. I think the meaning of the first number is obvious from the meaning of the second number. The third is the one I found the strangest but there is a system behind it.

8 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Oh, so that's not good. 3rd one was the most obvious for me because of range... :(

Mssing that last Passcode. Probably some joke I don't get. Would it be helfpul if I was user of such kind?

Heh. It's like it's a universal law that you'll always get the answer once you voice your frustration at not getting it. Happened to me a couple of times during this very event, too.

Ok, here's the deal... I solved the cube of revilhearts but after alot of personal tutoring from revil... yet Im stuck on the last part of clock times...

You must use the answers to the questions in the ITH to find the GA codes.

Figure out how the numbers are referencing a specific character in the ITHs answers.

Here's my summary since I will probably not have enough time to finish this event after all (due to overwork & vacation). :(
But at least I did as many as I could... :

01- DONE
02- Not even touched. Apologies to Revilheart for never finding enough time for this since I left it for last. You must have done some amazing work on that Cube, it's unfortunate that I literally skipped on this puzzle. Such puzzles honestly should be a huge event by themselves imo. ^^
03- DONE
04- Never revisited after trying during the first days. Hints were very minor at the time.

29- Solved but kinda stuck at the code given from the ITH. Didn't really find enough time to think of this further. EDIT: DONE
30- Rage-quitted after only solving a few questions. EDIT: DONE

I'd like to personally congratulate Jeff for all the organization of this great little event (Well not so little after all), and of course all the evil puzzle creators, even if some of them maybe overdid it in terms of frustration at some questions/points, but I guess that's what puzzles are anyway. xD Some are fun, others are easy, and others are... well.. masochistic.

Some special "event awards" from me to :

  1. Most creative/inventive and ultimately "fun" puzzles :
    Nordhbane's and M3rc's. xD More people should enjoy these.

  2. Most interesting puzzle in terms of theme and how questions apply to real-life situations and thinking:
    Cognitive Psychology (nellyneko's puzzle)

  3. Most epic ending/last question:
    Oceanography (Tewam's puzzle) - Barbie in the ocean...nuff said

  4. Hardest puzzle in terms of mere hardcore calculations needed (got nuts on it):
    Particle Physics (Oppen4himer's puzzle)

  5. Honorary mention to :
    Stlpaul's puzzle - liked the concept
    Fragy's puzzle - nice rewards

Was really a nice ride. xD

EDIT: 28/30 solved as of now, though not all passcodes deciphered fully.
