I figured out boxes 1,3, and 5. Can't for my life get box 2, and could probably figure out box 4 if I got the others. Any hints please?

Part 2:
As easy as ABC

Part 4:
The thing on the right is a mirror.

I finally solved it. I figured out box 4 and guessed at box 2. Still don't know where they got that letter or what the pattern is.

haha good for you two.

I, however, need a bit more help.

The third box answer jumped out at me, but I don't have any others...
1) no clue
2) maybe o?
I know box three
4) I know it's a mirror but what does that mean? reflections?
5) UMMMMMMMM I tried having the squares make letters, but I only get "olanu" so......yeah.

please help. haha...

ok im gonna try giving some help...
box 1: look at the paper written on, and the color used! what does that make it? any other way to represent it?

box 2: i just guessed when i solved the rest :P

box 3: everything you need is in the text!

box 4: Z in the mirror? try it for real if you can't imagine it!

box 5: this is too simple! if i give any hints it'll be pretty much the solution! just look at the final picture i guess!

i have a feeling this is gonna get deleted!!! sorry if it does!

Box 2 is actually a fairly common riddle in itself. Popular enough that I'd wager you could search on it and find the answer.

i googled box 2, when i did i found the answer and it seemed so simple as if i knew what it was... could i give a small hint of MTWTFSS ?? somthing similar to that if you can figure out what that was! but really if you google it you can find the answer easy enough

also wanted to say that with box 5 you are on the right track jacob just try looking at them as a whole

I need help with Box 4.
I know, I'm slow.

You and I both, Nathan. I've done everything they tell us, and I still don't see a thing. At least not anything that looks like a letter.

The object is a mirror. Ever see an ambulance in your rear view mirror? Notice how the word ambulance looks right in the mirror?

This puzzle wasn't a beauty like others, but it's not ugly either.

I think that #2 makes more sense if the replace the O with a G.

G T T F F S S ?

MathMan

Uh, no, I don't think so. It makes perfect sense with an O, and I don't see why it could possibly work with a G..

FireLily

Perhaps I'm seeing the pattern differently.

If you look at every other letter (forgetting that they're doubled) together... GFE & TS is what you get. GFE is in backwards alphabetical order, and so is TS. The series would go GGTTFFSSEERRDDQQCC, etc. But maybe my mind works bass ackwards.

OTTFFSS, google it, it's a pretty common logic puzzle I found out. Maybe one should start counting their blessings for google's goodness.

Okay, my brain approached it from a different angle. Thanks :)

I got the answer -- but I figured out 1-4 and just guessed the last letter. Does anyone have a hint about how to read those boxes?

For box two, [spoiler removed]
Also, box number five will not make since, so just guess the letter.

:P

Actually, box 5 can make sense, you just have to look at them carefully. Eventually, it'll all come together :)

I've got all of them except for box 1... any help would be appreciated :P

I thought I had figured all of them out but what I had didn't make sense. Thanks to the "beauty/ugly" hint, I was able to solve the puzzle. People might guess box 1 incorrectly depending on where they live. For me (in Canada), what is shown is not equivalent to what is needed to solve this puzzle.

I can't be too much more specific without giving it away. I just wanted to add this in case there are others who have looked at it from the right angle but still aren't able to figure out the solution. If you are confident that you have solved each box correctly, just look at what you have without the box 1 solution and think about the "beauty/ugly" hint.

IS # 4 supposed to be a letter or number?
i have figured out 2 and 3 but not 1, 4 and 5

well, 1 i think i got but i dont know, 2 i know i got, 3 i have no clue, 4 i again have no clue, 5, well, a hint on that one, i suppose you could add...look and you will understand 5... really simple if you think about it..

#3 -- This is a riddle. I've actually seen this riddle before, so it was no trouble for me. Even if you haven't, this is really a matter of cleverness. You need absolutely no outside knowledge for it though. Just read carefully...

#4 -- It looks like 'Z + mirror.' I joked with my little brother for a time that the answer must be 'ZMIRROR!' But obviously it's not, or that would be considered a spoiler. If you have 'Dr. Lunatic Supreme with Cheese,' you might see a rather kiddy example of this mirror effect in the SpisMall. You've probably seen this reversal in a lot of places, actually. I know there was an 'American' movie that featured it earlier this year...

I figured out box 2 ( i googled the text) and 5 (i looked at them as if they were one) and used a crossword solver (somehow the first word was the answer .. and know that even if you take the first letter out it would still be a word) puzzle seemed pretty much easy then i would have expect it to be.

i got the 2nd and 3rd, and i think i got the 4th, but what on earth do the 1st and 5th mean?????????

cogskate
10-22-2007, 02:18 PM
I'm with Tonks on this one. I have the solution now, but only from a lot of help and a bit of guessing.

Put it this way - box one: wow those standards are high! What does it take to get the top mark in this class? And box 5? I have no idea why it is that answer. That's not a hint, it's just the truth. But once youhave the rest of the word, guess at box 5.

Yet I got boxes 2,3 & 4 straight off. So - STRANGE, CLASSIC, EASY, EASY and HUH?

*Puzzle solved*

I got boxes 2, 4 and 5 and just played around with the answers I got for those three boxes. Still, I gave it 4 stars because I had absolutely no idea what's going on.

In other words, I also got boxes 1 and 3, but only because I was lucky enough to think of something inhuman when I was attempting to solve the puzzle...
