    It's still the 13th, and that last one was on the 12th.

    Re: The EggXpert Prize Box

    PUZZLE 10



    Clue #1:  First step - order.

    I'm a day late on the clue, so I'll just push the whole puzzle schedule back by a day.  It was going to be tough for me to keep up the Sunday updates anyway.

    64mb, by my clock, your previous Mastermind guess was at 1:01am on the 13th - sorry!  Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but with DST, I'm currently on GMT -4.  For reference, the time right now is 8:54am.

    Your guesses must have ten digits - I won't give keys for just the first "x" digits.

    Re: The EggXpert Prize Box

    Can we throw a 2 on the end and then count them?  I know the last digit is 2. If not, it's cool.

    But I didn't read in your rules anything about not guessing/answering partial (non-10-digit) numbers, and I think I remember doing this in the old 4-peg mastermind games.

    Thanks.

    Re: The EggXpert Prize Box

    Sorry, you'll have to repost them later.

    I didn't specify a "partial number" rule, but I thought it was pretty much implied that you had to guess a ten digit number.
  •  07-14-2008, 11:08 AM 357200 in reply to 357174

    Re: The EggXpert Prize Box

    I guessed nine digits because I knew the last one, and when I deduce the numbers via notepad ;) the tail numbers of guesses tend to be left off, because I am aware of their correct digit.

    For summary purposes (everyone): No 0's, no 1's, last digit is 2, with no other two's (I guessed another two because I knew that'd be a -).

    *edit*

    I just wanted to make it known that I'm thinking of canning the minigames once school starts back up, since I'll probably be back in the same boat (timewise) that I was a few months ago.  As far as dates go, I'm moving back to university-ville on August 15th, and classes start on the 25th.  I might continue a weekly Roulette or something along that line just so things keep moving, but no promises (as always).  I'll make things formal in a few weeks.

    b-but... T_T I like mastermind, even if I do need to take the long route.

     

    Thanks Larri, I think your second gives us just about every number.

    Re: The EggXpert Prize Box

    :) Just about.  Why not guess yourself, to figure out the remaining number?

    The bottom makes me think of tetris.

    Hey CG!

    Um... I keep messing up when trying to figure out peices of this Mastermind, if you have a chance could you please double-check them? 8436498592 - XXOOOOO in particular doesn't seem to agree.

    8436498592
    xoooo- -o -x

    Basically, no 9s and only one 8.  7777888899 - OO would then mean one 7 and one 8

     but 5555666677 - XOOO plus some of the others says two 5s and two 6s.

     

    ?_? 

     

    EDIT oh, and my last guess verified no 7, didn't it? 

  •  07-15-2008, 2:40 PM 357957 in reply to 357946

    Re: The EggXpert Prize Box

    That one was screwing me up a little, too.  I think your last guess verified more than "no 7's". (i.e. according to all but the anomaly below, the numbers should be 2344556688)

    8436498592 - XXOOOOOO   <- I think there should be an extra 'O' in there.

     

    And as far as the puzzle, there are two fours on the side... so what happens with those? Those rows could very easily be flipped - if this is even on the road to solution at all...

    Re: The EggXpert Prize Box

    Hey! :glare:

    No underestimating my minimal foresight!

    I did it both ways, one on top, the other bottom, then showed each four way just in case seeing it a certain way triggered any thoughts.

    Re: The EggXpert Prize Box

    You're right, there's supposed to be an extra O on that one.  Whoopsee~  I hate it when I show my humanity...

    No, no.  It's great.  I would have done that, had I the time.  I just had to picture it in my head (or blur my vision ;).

    I guess we'll wait for the next clue to proceed.
