November 28, 200916 yr To those that managed to solve the puzzles/clues, please post a explanation of how you did so. It would be nice to know it. Thanks! SMELLY - make sure you put the EXPLANATION also to the first post please.
November 28, 200916 yr Author To those that managed to solve the puzzles/clues, please post a explanation of how you did so. It would be nice to know it. Thanks! SMELLY - make sure you put the EXPLANATION also to the first post please. [hide]Puzzle one - mentions how many you need on the 4th or so line "The trim, which is the same as the hem, requires ten threads." once you know that the collar requires ten you work the rest out. Puzzle Two - Logical question they both have the same size field, so both split profits equally (I didn't think logically on this one and instead worked it out WRONG) Puzzle three - the words are virtually identical "My first is in jungle but not in rectangular" The letter J isn't in Rectangular for instance.

SMELLY - make sure you put the EXPLANATION also to the first post please. Clue 1: We are told trim = 10 threadHem takes same as trim, so hem = 10Collar is half as much as hem so = 5sleeves is 4 times as much as collar so 20sides are 5 times less than sleeves so 410 + 10 + 5 + 20 + 4 = 4955 - 49 = 6So 6 red eggs Clue 2: Despite all the complex stuff it says first paragraph says "each plant their half"If each plant half, they did half the work so 400/2 = 200gp Clue 3: Taking the words and cross referencing letters you get:J, U,G and W, B/A, T, E/M, RSo we known its a jug and since on the second word only water makes sense with the letter choices its jugs of water.

November 28, 200916 yr Got all of em today aswell. Was explaining to a friend how to do some of the older clues. :P ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........
November 28, 200916 yr Here's all the information from the second clue that you'll need Fred and Geoff have a ten-acre plot of land between them. They split the rights to the land evenly and go to work at planting seeds and crops on their half of the farmland. Selling all of their produce results in 400 gold coins between them.How much does each get? :P

November 28, 200916 yr After thinking about it. I think Jagex is doing a great thing with these kind of events. I hope for more mathematic events like this, why? So that i can practice my math, and not suck so much in it!
November 28, 200916 yr Spoiler:[hide]200 gp idk how to hide[/hide] Edited November 28, 200916 yr by Rainy_Day Added Hide Tags Noobs: We pay we sayJaGeX: How much will you pay?

I got this:J U G W A T E R Thank you very much. Some constructive criticism Smelly, you should go a bit more into explaining like Paw Claw. But i am wondering if you were just in a lazy mood (i am like that often!). Also look who i found in F2P Smelly:Your BROTHER!: :smile:
November 28, 200916 yr Got the first and last one rather quickly, but failed to see the common sense in the middle clue. After a whole lot of maths I came to the conclusion that Fred has worked 47.62% of the ten acres, and therefore he would be entitled to 190,48 gp :unsure: Obviously I was wrong, and it was strange anyway that Jagex would give us such a difficult clue... Looked at it again and discovered they both get[hide]200 gp[/hide] Great idea of Jagex to do this, although it would be even better if only the worthy get the prize :twisted: [/elitist]. Due to my epic stats, I have now started WGS (but I still hate spoilers).
November 28, 200916 yr this is not just maths...this is logic and maths...a very insane match that tortures my brain into jelly

I solved the first one and the third one easily, looked at the third one thought "well it appears to be 200, but that's way too easy, they must be testing my algebra skills!" Bad decision needless to say... Overall this event has been completely awesome, hope tomorrows clues actually require calculus, how epic would that be <3: /wish.
