SpeedRacer 1 #26 April 30, 2003 well that's basically what I did, eliminate what you can, then trial & error. Isnt' there a neater way? Speed Racer -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bvsdjumper 0 #27 April 30, 2003 Being way too lazy to do this by hand, I used the already posted link: http://www.goodegames.co.uk/richard/dhtml/dragdrop/einstein.html It was fun and didn't take long. By hand would be much more difficult. Doing the clues in the following order makes it trivial: 8 9 14 4, 5 1 7 11 10, 15 12 3 13 2 6 --ArtSky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

SpeedRacer 1 #28 April 30, 2003 yeah, but if you use that link,. they give away additional info. such as when the blend smoker lives next to cats , the website gives it away whether he lives to the right or left. That's additional info. I wanna know how to figure it out without cheating Speed Racer -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bvsdjumper 0 #29 April 30, 2003 Yeah, that definately makes it easier. It would be cool if you could drag the clue and then press a key to get all the possible legitimate shapes. It would still be easier than writing and erasing, but I wouldn't consider it "cheating". --ArtSky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

SpeedRacer 1 #30 April 30, 2003 I figured it out without cheating (didn't use the website) but it still took me a long time & was messy. I guess that's the only way to do it though.

splittail1 0 #32 May 1, 2003 It helps if you color code after you get past clue 11 and list the possible homes for the remaining nationalities, cigs, drinks, pets. yeah, I know... I'm a closet nerd. There was a game we use to play in college where it was a big deck of cards with brain teasers that we use to play- anybody know the name? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
