not sure but sliding puzzle is nasty. It's possible first puzzles are impossible. I think if you he restart enough, a solvable puzzle appears
I think A and E are in frameworks/railings
nice template.
I am past the cryptex stage. Dont want to post my times....;)
Thanks Jennifer.. I found all the names for the inner and outer gears but didnt know which match was the wrong one. I got it now.. Thanks again
I love the eurostar so far.. much lovely interfaces and the sound is a nice addition. Puzzles are educating. I love the one about the plays, I spent more time reading about the plays on wikipedia than playing the puzzle.
So far I have completed only two of the level one puzzles, Regents park and V&A Museum. Sure fixed my withdrawal from Da vinci code quest.Great job on selling me the idea of touring europe.

I love the template!

Hi I am stuck here

Help Plz
The toughest one for me was the blueprint rearrangement. Until I had an idea. You need to see my blog to understand what I mean. The sliding puzzle was nasty too, always hated those.
YADVCP to complete on the 19th (I hope)
BTW: The templates mostly come for free on BlogSpot
JJ, change your display settings. If you are running 800x600 or smaller, it will not fit. Change it to 1024x768 or something like that and it will fit.
This guy has some answers on his blog.
I feel bad about it, but I finally just had to cheat on the sliding puzzle. If your gaming morals are as low as mine, go here:

This guy has a great AI puzzle solver program. Using the clues that are given you divide the picture into 9 spaces from left to right, top to bottom. Then keep restarting the puzzle until you get one that space 9 (the very bottom right) is the blank space. Then using your numbers one through nine, fill in the program with where the tiles are positioned. The program will then tell you what moves to make. I spent 7 hours on this puzzle until my friend told me about this program. I gave in. What can I say, I'm weak.
Best times:
56 seconds on cryptex
38 seconds on the safe (there's a trick to it)
I promise I am not lying on the times - someone will beat mine easily I'm sure.
Oh this is great fun! Love the layout and thanks for pointing me to a new puzzle quest.
Hi mikehalc Thanks for the tip. I am desperate...
That was a LOT tougher than GoogleQuest - but still pretty cool. I used lots of pieces of scratchpaper and jotted down alot of words and numbers. I almost hated that blueprint as much as a rubik's cube - had to cheat on that one (the cube or the print? ...uh...yep) and went through both clues and jotted down all the numbers and slowly untangled their out-of-orderness.
btw y'all, just started up a new blog (my first actually) - it's really kind of pathetic but I wouldn't be able to sleep thismorning unless I mentioned http://www.humboldtbarry.blogspot.com
What is the trick Jer???
I can't get the "quaint" V&A Bells quote. I know there are 10 bells - but are those "o"s or zeros in the lineup? - any cheating is appreciated :)
Hi renszarvas,
Just go here: http://silyeek-tech.blogspot.com/2006/03/ai-8-puzzle-solver.html
Once there, click the download link. this will take you to a file sharing site and ask you to input a code to make sure that you are not running a bot. Once you input the security code, it will ask you to wait like 45 seconds or so, then the download will start automatically. Once download, just follow the instructions. if you have anymore trouble just let me know either on here, or e mail me: mikehalc@cox.net
finished levels 1 & 2 but level 3 not released until may 19
renszarvas, Hope I helped. Feel free to e-mail me.
and yeah, cox is huge. I believe they are the only cable internet provider here in Tulsa. Anyway, good night.
Any tips on how to do the bank code? The prize bonus for round two? I just get the first number - nothing to the right.
Thanks
Saksham_sydney,
Do you mean the blueprint one?
If so, try the clues - the print will very briefly show you ( at the bottom)the numbers of the segments. There are 2 clues - so you can try getting the numbers twice.
saksham_sydney:
Congrats on the blueprint.
If you have the time - give me the process for the prize portion of phase 2, ok?
Do you enter a digit & hit ENTER? Is that how you move along the row?
Thanks!
Anyone make any of the prize puzzles? I have done the first one and did BAD..
I'd like to hear about anyone who did it in less than two tries..
MR
Can anyone tell me what exactly is meant by "going live " in reference to various levels of the euro*quest?
Thank you
MR
