I’m looking for that type of person who likes to do puzzles and put legos together.
Also anyone who can deal with my emotional trauma would be cool too.
the number of poll responses has been greater than expected. Five people, excluding the soapbender, voted yes, so here it goes. The hilarious chase that would deliver the checkmate is detailed in the comments to the attached article. Make sure to credit the soapbending variance authority in the requested manner if you want to share the solution.
In the meantime, we cross our fingers in the ongoing, live championship. A decisive game looks set for today (so far).
While the World Championship is underway, is anyone curious about the answer for the scenario below? It will be posted as a comment to the attached spinoff proposal if at least three people vote "YES," not counting the Cretaceous soapbender's own vote.
They have my favorite type of #puzzles back in my #localwalmart ! Can you guess which one I want to get next? Hint: it's not the pink teddy bear. #3dcrystalpuzzle #toys #games #levelup
Hello tumblr Cosmere fandom!
This last weekend was the MIT mystery hunt and this got me thinking. Branderson's world building has given us all sorts of lovely systems that could be used as the basis for puzzle-hunt style puzzles. Are there other puzzle hunt type people around the tumblr cosmere fandom? If I were to actually turn one/some of the puzzle ideas floating around my head into reality, would there be people interested in poking at it/them?
I would make the best Apperture Science test subject because I have, like, a monkey brain that makes it so when I see a puzzle I physically cannot help but try and solve it. A little while ago, I was playing a game with a puzzle where you had to move a bunch of boxes around so you could reach a door on the other side of the room, and I didn't even notice the door for the longest time I just saw boxes I could move around in a confined space and went "oooo box puzzle weeeeeeeee" and started pushing things around without having any idea of what the end goal was supposed to be. Like, I wouldn't even need the incentive of "cake" I would be content with my reward being more puzzles for all eternity.
Everyone I’ve talked to that has ADHD either absolutely loves or absolutely hates puzzles, which is why I have decided to create this very scientific poll
