A Little bit of Everything Puzzle Event!

Looking forward to all the fun messages back and forth on this event! PLEASE don't hesitate to ask for hints or help...

For those who are interested: I am going in for 10 hour brain surgery on Tuesday the 12th to put in two implants and will stay in recovery overnight. I will go back the 19th for another surgery that will put a pacemaker-like device in my abdomen that is attached to the brain implants that will control them. I wanted this puzzle event running during this time so I can have a fun outlet to keep my mind off the surgeries. The best way to encourage me is to solve this puzzle event!! This is what makes me happy! ;) Love you guys!

Instructions of How to Solve:

  • 1 Unscramble the list of words in one of the below puzzles (Ex. P1Q1 IMTTSAESFG is STEAMGIFTS)
  • 2 To determine the Column A-Z to reference for each answer use the Column Number Hint (Ex P1Q1 12345-7890 the column will be the 6th letter in the unscrambled word of STEAMGIFTS, thus column G)
  • 3 To determine the Row to reference for each answer you must solve the Row Hint (Ex P1Q1 unlucky number on a Friday would be 13, thus row 13)
  • 4 Refer to the Puzzle Key below image and find the character in the Grid for the Column/Row coordinate (Ex P1Q1 G13 is "L")
  • 5 Use the Grouping and Order Hint to group together 5 sets of 5 words in the correct order (Ex P1Q1 is the Roman Numeral I, this will be grouped with the others in order of I, II, III, IV, V)
  • 6 Once all the characters are found and the groupings and ordering are correct, you should discover 5 hidden GA codes of 5 characters each
  • 7 Find all 5 GAs for each Puzzle... each will give a HINT to solve a common Acronym (order of GA characters can then be determined)
  • 8 Find all the 8 Acronym Hidden GAs from each of the 8 puzzles to solve and find a hidden ITSTOOHARD puzzle
  • 9 Solve the ITSTOOHARD puzzle and get access to more GAs and conquer the full event!!

Well, 11th place suits me very well.
I don't like being conspicuous after all.

Also, hope everything goes well with all of the surgeries.

Awesome job! I was happy to read your little notes throughout the puzzles. They made me smile a lot and a few LOLs,too!

Your solving was just the encouragement and fun I needed to keep my mind positive during the two very successful surgeries I went through.

Yesterday’s surgery took 3 hours and now I’m home healing for 4 weeks.

Thanks again and again!

That's very good news to hear, Jeff and I hope and pray that your road to full recovery will go as best as possible and without bumps on that road. Having pain relief is totally understandable and it's just a month's wait for feeling better and to have more quality in you life; so please keep strong, my friend! <3

Bump for all 8 normal puzzles solved.
(It's a shame I noticed this event 2 weeks late but I think I'll still have enough time to solve it)

Also, I'm glad to hear that your surgeries went well and I hope that you'll recover soon :)
