Equation Solution
Guest


THAT took long enough. But excellent! The solution to the Equation. Great. We can Put That Behind Us. We are now able to Move On. We have a Clean Slate. And so now someone can EXPLAIN WTF to DO with the Pillars of Atlantis. Numbers all over. Symbols here but not there. Different sizes and Badly Written Clues by people who've never seen Goonies or the Last Crusade.

And the Box with the sliding gizmos. Yeah, still putting my ear to that one every night while my wife does crossword puzzles in bed next to me thinking I'm nuts. I know it looks like I'm listening to a radio with a broken volume button but I assure her I am Getting To The Bottom of Great Universal Secrets that are kept by a puzzle company.

I speak of Carta Blanca. The holes in thw back are for listening. Hold it to your ear while you turn it in different directions and you can hear the soft, seductive shifting and sliding of maybe three different ball bearing or wooden pegs. The right series of moves will, I assume, allow the top to slide off. Not there yet though.

The Equation

I've seen the two Equation Solutions and I actually happened uponthem myself after countless hours of frusteration and random block placing... But what is the solutiuon and what does it mean? I can not figure out the password nor can I connect the dots to make the clues make any sense.

musical99, i salute you Sir. Despite many happy hours whiling away the time with The Equation, i'll never really know how close i came to solving it, suffice to say i'd given up and put the puzzle away. Ahhh now i can move on, safe in the knowledge that i failed yet another puzzle Confused

Equation solutions

I attached 2 solutions I found to put the pieces of the Equation.

Actually I am stuck and I do not know which solution is the one.
I have seen there are some new clues since february on the web site but it does not help for me.

Has someone any idea of how the clues should help ?

I had a last question, does anyone knows what the following formula is related to (which scientist and which part of physic) : 4² 6xP4 ?

In fact this just isn't a correct formula... There would be a missing sign between the 4^2 and the 6.... and what about xP ??? I just don't catch it !

DaVinci's The Clue
Understand meanings of clues at site for The Clue but I can't get it open!!

Well DMB, this is a pretty old post so you're probably way beyond this info but will post anyway because it might help someone out there who is in DMB's shoes- wanting to understand what the clues actually mean on the Sacred Myths and Legends website. Here's a clue and it's meaning:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The website says to identify the missing figure and superimpose on the puzzle. The symbol on one of the ends of the puzzle is DaVinci's Vitruvian man missing the man. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitruvian_Man) The Sacred Myths and Legends website says to take the direction of the missing figure and rotate to success. If you align the first disc with the direction of Vitruvian man's head, the disc will lie over the shaft everyone is talking about.


Another clue at Sacred Myths and Legends website is
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Light with Light and Dark with Dark thus the alternating discs.


And last- a clue the Sacred Myths and Legends website gives that I understand and that might be very helpful is
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Ancient Roman architect's proportions are essential for symmetry and position among 16" If you look at Vitruvian Man and assemble his arms and legs in all possible combinations you have the number 16. That is well known. Don't know how this helps but it must somehow.


Anyhow DMB, maybe these bits of info will help you make more sense of the clues that are supposed to guide you into opening the puzzle. My problem is I've done everything right in terms of proper alignment of all the discs but I still can't get The Clue open no matter what I do!! Please help! Spoil me! Someone out there! Thank you

Re: WARNING! PICTURE OF OPEN PUZZLE
HAVE ALIGNED JUST LIKE THE PICTURE AND MINE STILL WON'T OPEN

bit1313 wrote:
Here is the pic of the open puzzle

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The yellow stickers are to show the position of the discs to open




I have lined up everything exactly line up like in the picture and mine still won't release the discs. I'm just going out of my mind here. I'm lining the discs up with the shaft and it just won't release. I've played with each individual disc to make sure it's in exactly the right place hoping one is slightly out of line and then the shaft with top piece like in the photo will be released and I just don't get anywhere. I've been at this for hours. Please don't tell me I just don't have my discs aligned because I still won't know how to align them any differently than I already am- just like in the photo. HELP!

 The Equation
Clue? or Dead End

OK through random fiddling with the blocks I have managed to make a shape with the black pieces that looks like a negative seven. It does not descibe what the equations mean or how they are related and it could just be a dead end. Question

The Equation
Hmmm

Perhaps Telescopic Vision refers to looking through the center hole once you have lined up the shapes of the puzzle pieces on the board to match the etching on the middle piece from The Clue - - the equation will be the one in the circle?

Is there is a hidden scroll for The Equation or was it just the folded one inside the box?

Carta Blanca
Opening Puzzle

I am having difficulty opening the Carta Blanca puzzle. I read and heard about listening through the holes on the bottom however I can hear things shifting without listening through the bottom. Does anyone have hints oon how to open the puzzle anythign you can offer would be helpful.
Also does anyone know when/if the equation or pillars have been solved correctly?

 DO NOT BUY AT IRONPUZZLES.COM!!!!!!!!

I suggest to everybody not to buy at ironpuzzles.com because I spent 150 dollars to buy the first three puzzles more than two months ago and I have not response from them since one month ago and I have tried plenty of times contacting them. Once Stephanie from hippocart.com was the person who put in contact with me but now she doesn't reply to me.

The Equation
Hmmm

I just typed in the three easy equations on the table as password guesses. Obviously, no success there. The only scroll I found was folded in the bottom of the box. Anyone got the correct password to the equation yet?

THe Equation

Does anyone know who derived the equations written on the base board are?(Obviously E=MC2 was Einstein and F=dP/dt was Newton)
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Also has anyone used the blueprint found on the center wheel of the Da Vinci Secret to solve the equation?
