printed out the page and circled the given dates. I see an N but nothing else?


Help?
How many calendars and date sets did you get?


I counted them and it says the answer is wrong
Well, the number of calendars is not the answer. Each set of dates is for a particular calendar in the image. First set for first calendar, etc. Try that. (unless I've misunderstood what you're saying).

Or doozey, doozie, doozy. Rolling Eyes

Anyone having trouble with that website? I was having issues with it yesterday, and today.

EDIT: I finally got in. I see there are 26 symbols for 26 letters.

 		Cracked it. I'll leave it a bit before sticking up hints, but if anybody wants some help feel free to pm me.

 		Congrats, Kie!!
I've been afraid to hit the dial button. I know that clicking on the colored squares does something.

 		q34
Too bad you have to lose points to get this right. Quite clever, though.

Yeh, i lost 0.04 learning how to dial correctly, and then a further 0.3 to dial a bit more!!! I still half guessed the answer!

I'm going to offer some hints. There's 2 main parts to this puzzle. To dial -

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Think in nm, then see what's missing. Locate the pairs and plot them. Hit dial.


If you can dial correctly -

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
26 symbols and 26 letters in the english alphabet. You may see a correlation ........not so.

 		This is a clue i've offered out via pm. It (hopefully) doesn't make it too obvious yet should give you some leads.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I'm guessing the 400 - 700 values are your nemesis. Visible spectrum is all i shall offer. Partner the results with the missing digits and you shall receive your co-ordinates.

The Holy Trinity provides.

Now you can dial, do it wisely. A-Z are not the only characters in our language.

 		Q36
A few of us are on this one now. Any ideas?
I found that the cards are from the French Tarot
and they are used in a "trick-taking" game.

 		I got the same cards.

I zoomed in on the "King of Hearts" and it looks more like the letter R rather than a K. Opinions?

Googled "3R159" and found reference to a individual card in a "pokemon" style card game. Tried the name of the card...wrong.

Still looking.

Anybody get an e-mail from World of IQ talking about this puzzle. Said due to the difficulty IP penalties would be reduced to .01 from .05? I refreshed the puzzle screen and penalties are still .05.

Yep. The King is R. In the French Tarot it's Roi. I also Googled it and came up with the same result. Maybe Geekspeak? Also received the same email from WIQ. This one is tough or we're idiots.

 		Q 36
Tarot Cards
My ex had some Tarot Cards, candles, etc. She was into casting spells and such. I'll ask her about this set of cards. If you don't hear from me again then her spell may have worked.

 		As pointed out before, the cards are from the French Tarot. The face values are 3 of swords, King of cups, Ace of coins, 5 of swords, and 9 of wands. Does this spur any cerebral activity?
