Puzzles 1-20 Available Now, Puzzles 20+ Available 3/14/2010
Puzzles 1-20 are available before Pi Day. On Sunday, all puzzles will become available!
@April Tea…yes, like E, A, G, etc. The colors don’t matter, although the pegs do. If you haven’t figured it out, you can clear all the colors and then add them back in one by one.
@Sarah, yes, that is what I’m talking about. Read my response to April Tea, and see if that helps. If it makes a difference, I had to sleep on it to get the correct solution! Now, I’m stuck on 17
i need help on #5. It asks for the circumference and I give it to them. they say it’s correct and ask for it again and i hit the button and it says it needs 3 decimal places and i give it 3 but it won’t work… HELP!!
On 4, I kept hitting the lightswitch, the measurement, the ball, the flask, the ball, the lightswitch, and then the MV…. then I hit one of the numeral things. Somehow you have to get the Measurement/Volume to equal 3.14….
Bahh, I’m stuck on #13 with the guitar….I saw the “Guitar A-Z” Book, so I figured you’d just have to hit the strings in alphabetical order….but which E goes first?
I got it. The number of the beads matches which letter of the alphabet the notes are. So, the first note is E so you would need 5 green beads and so on.@Sarah Strunk
I just tried it again. It should work. 5 green, 1 blue, 4 red, 7 purple, 2 yellow and 5 pink then click on the guitar pick and you should be through.@Sarah Strunk

Did you get it to work? Maybe if you get through #13 you can help me with #15.
@Dave Noonan
I don’t know…I’ve been trying to get them all red…but when you get the question mark only certain ones are starred off so i don’t know if your supposed to just get those red or have those as the only ones that dont get red….
okay i started all over again…it took 3 mins for the question mark to show up. i was down to only 2 circles that needed to be colored in and it showed up when i was back up to 4….i dont know if the placement of them are what causes them to show up…..i’m not sure. @dave noonan
When the question mark shows you the star-circles, it returns you back to the puzzle. Then, you have to click the circles that had stars in order, by row. They’ll all turn out red.
@Michelle Van Der Wege
Are you talking about EADGBE for the strings? I still don’t get it!
@April Tea…yes, like E, A, G, etc. The colors don’t matter, although the pegs do. If you haven’t figured it out, you can clear all the colors and then add them back in one by one.

@Ashley Li
On 4, I kept hitting the lightswitch, the measurement, the ball, the flask, the ball, the lightswitch, and then the MV…. then I hit one of the numeral things. Somehow you have to get the Measurement/Volume to equal 3.14….
who know how to do #4!!!
@jamie
The third decimal place will round up! Then you have to click on the outer edge of the circle….
@Sarah Strunk
how do you know which plummerian numbers are which? like 1-12? and why do the numbers keep changing?
@Ashley Li
Sorry, not really sure….
a lil help with 13 plz
Hey hints for 17? whats the objective
can anyone help me with 12?
how do you do # 8 with the car??
@Kathy Lane
MWAHAHAA i helped you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Kathy Lane
MWHAHAHHAHAhA again
Starting in the top left hand corner, the numbers go in numerical order clockwise.
@Ashley Li
I’m stuck on #12. what do the letters in the globe mean? and what do they have to do with the arctic circle?
A little help with #12 please!
@Sarah Strunk
i need help on 15
#13 you’re probably missing a part. Once you figure it out you still need to play the guitar.
I dont get what im supposed to do with #3!!!
Bahh, I’m stuck on #13 with the guitar….I saw the “Guitar A-Z” Book, so I figured you’d just have to hit the strings in alphabetical order….but which E goes first?
#13???
Please Mr. pi we all need help with # 17!!!! just a little hint!!!!
i was wondering if anyone could give me a hint for the second part of q # 8?
Yes! A hint please!
I need help with 13… I know nothing about guitar and I’ve tried everything I can think of!
The letter that pop up when you press the green light correspond to the vertices of the triangle.@Lisa Patrolia
Me too. I tried 314159 of the colors on the strings but I can only fit seven pink beads on the last string.
@Dave Noonan
I know! I’m getting so frustrated!
I got it. The number of the beads matches which letter of the alphabet the notes are. So, the first note is E so you would need 5 green beads and so on.@Sarah Strunk
@Dave Noonan
EADGBE= 5,1,4,7,2,5? I tried that and it didn’t work…
have anyone finished number 17?
Did you get my reply for #13?
Did you click on the guitar pick on the left?@Sarah Strunk
some help on #7 plz
@Dave Noonan
I got it, but it’s not working for me. I put 5 on the first, then 1, 4,7,2,5 beads on the other… and nothing!
I just tried it again. It should work. 5 green, 1 blue, 4 red, 7 purple, 2 yellow and 5 pink then click on the guitar pick and you should be through.@Sarah Strunk
Did you get it to work? Maybe if you get through #13 you can help me with #15.
Ahh, now I’m up to #17…and I see absolutely nothing that makes sense. Can someone help with #17? I don’t understand what to do with the numbers.
15 anyone?
i cant get 15…. =( does anyone know how?
I’m stuck there too. Do you just keep trying until they are all red or is there a pattern?@Carla Linfante
@Dave Noonan
I don’t know…I’ve been trying to get them all red…but when you get the question mark only certain ones are starred off so i don’t know if your supposed to just get those red or have those as the only ones that dont get red….
There’s a question mark? @Carla Linfante
@Dave Noonan
yeah sometimes it appears…you have to watch for it. but it resets the puzzle and brings you to a different one and shows you the stars.
I haven’t seen it yet and I’ve been on #15 for over an hour. Hmmmmm…@Carla Linfante
okay i started all over again…it took 3 mins for the question mark to show up. i was down to only 2 circles that needed to be colored in and it showed up when i was back up to 4….i dont know if the placement of them are what causes them to show up…..i’m not sure. @dave noonan
