Is anyone else having trouble seeing what the damn numbers are on the triominoes puzzle! Cursing


Yes, I found them hard to see, but they become much clearer if you download the pic.

I still haven't managed to solve the puzzle though - the only answer I could find came back as incorrect.

It does seem to be wrong, but it isn't really. Note that 0.1L <> 0.01L....

Im still using my old registration. I believe you are reffering to people's, cards solved number. This is a number of cards solved from last seasons 256. As you say new cards are out on 1st March.

I feel like a moany-pants but, I wish there was something to tell you that you've solved a particular puzzle already. Like... I dunno a little tick next to the name or something.

I've just been solving them randomly so far.

Also, does anyone else think that the Ponturu and Cidouri puzzles seem unnecessarily bland? The plain black and white is starting to give me a headache. I know it doesn't matter for the puzzles, but a bit of colour would be nice.

It seems to me like the webpage has been a bit rushed on. I would have happily waited another week or so.

All well, that hasn't stopped me spending the last couple hours puzzling away on it.

Razz I'll shut up now.

Its actually a beta site at the moment so we can't say anything about it Razz They are obviously working out bugs at the moment and we get to help them test it Smile

Hmm... good point. Well, in that case, nothing wrong with a bit of constructive criticism, is there?

Is it going to be an ARG still?

Like many others, I'm now spending lots of time on the new site trying to solve the puzzles - and getting 'Incorrect' back to some puzzles I seem to have solved correctly.
I just hope Mind Candy don't lose the fact that PerplexCity was built around an ARG with a purpose - to find the £100,000 cube. Now that sense of purpose has gone, I hope they quickly come up with something equally enticing to get the momentum going for Season 2.

Adrian and others just said on the webchat that cards and ARG will be seperate but with links. No "big" prize this time.

What is this "webchat" that you speak of and why did nobody tell me?

This was a chat that was setup by/for the folks over at Perplexorum. Kinda of "Behind the Curtain" chat with the PMs.

I believe one of their folks is working on a brief overview and the log files should be available at some point.

I hope duckiemonster doesn't mind me posting her webchat log link here:

In a way I'm glad if this is the case.

There are a great many players of the cards, who did not have the time/inclination/opportunity to participate in the ARG 'live action' aspect.

However, here comes the big proviso:

The card universe should have a totally separte points total, and ranking, in essence its own mini universe. Also, they should continue to award leitmarks for levels of card points - as was promissed on the old website.

Cards such as reimann should not be present. Billion to 1 ok as a funny card, and things such as the 13th labour are totally fine.

I wonder what percentage of MCs income the cards represent?! The current confusion of 'channels' and lack of clear cards area on the new website is not serving a significatan (though silent) section of the PXC purchase base.

While it is fine to lock A COPY of the season 1 leader board at the point the cube was found the main S1 leader board should continue to play on.

Not doing so is, a bit of an insult to the large card-only community.

And the leitmarks were clearly expressed on the website as rewards - it doesn't matter what the small print says, the big print can't contradict it.
Please continue to award them, and keep a S1 leader board version running, if not I probably won't be playing S2. Its not that I don't like the puzel cards, just have lost faith in the company running it offering me what I'm looking for.

For thouse who did have time for the story elements - glad you enjoyed it, wish I had more time to play myself.

Speaking of the new site...(which we were at some point)...

Is anybody else having trouble loading the flash games? I usually have no trouble at all with flash documents, but these just are not loading for me. Is it my firewall or something?
