Alright... As I wondered about the relationship between the angiens and the shades and the icon of it discussed here, the I Ching came very much to mind, along with a suspicion that the relationship between the two species resembled one of the relationships between hexagrams. So I of course asked the i Ching how to interpret this relationship: "How can I understand the angiens through the shades?" The answer had some personal undertones, which I won't focus on here (Essentially, it's telling me -- but not you! -- to give up or expect very slow progress on this puzzle.) P'i, with a ni

I DID read said guides, so it should be shocking that I didn't think of that! Thanks again!

There is also only one solution for the puzzle, although it is possible for similar puzzles to have multiple solutions. Afaik that qualifies for P-complete. [/quote] Eep, I'll have to keep thinking now. Slowness is unacceptable! Only one solution? I could swear there were infinitely many.

Thanks so much! Any tips on gaining losses as an mp4? I've successfully avoided wins, but am having difficulty making the leap from "retreat" to "loss".

In the moment it has less...another ritual will be selected (that has 301 or more ve). If another ritual is not available then a random one will be generated. Piece of advice:buy more creatures. 6 is not enough...

I've already solved the Gazebo, but to those who solved it with coded algorithms, is the puzzle P-complete?

Reading through this topic, I now have a strong urge to crreate an alt and experience all these great new things. how foolish of me to deprive myseelf of this experience! Ah well, "One must understand the purpose of a rule before one maay break it." Just sayin' EDIT: An important point is that people actually have alters in Real Life too. Let me explain. We all know that in different scenarios, the same person can act differently. It's a fact of life- We carry different "moods," different "states o f mind" waiting to be activated by different, possibly similar situations. What s

Wow, I should read the forums more often. A few hours ago I sent you an answer based on the Yahoo answers one, accompanied by a note that it was from Yahoo answers. Please forgive me! It's really a shame; that was a really good riddle. I can be fairly confident that I know the name of the person who reported it, as I probably discussed the issue with her via PM. Hmm, I hope you have some other riddles in store The rules, of course, are clear. No collaboration. Googling isn't collaborating. Asking for answers is.

Yes, there is a highly obvious, boring, and time-consuming algorithm that can be used for this puzzle, doubtless far from optimal.

I solved the puzzle after about twenty hours of semi-brute force search over teh course of three days, but everyone knows what it looks like; no need to "learn something new" and post a pic
