Sometimes I cant get the page to load when I enter it, if I type Puzzle Adventure into yahoo tho, it loads just fine if I click the link (about 5 down) w/ the same URL. Weird???
Passwords to that site are supposed to be found by solving a puzzle that has to be purchased for $15. I’m pretty sure that posting your password on a messageboard is not something that they would appreciate, and is probably against some sort of terms of service or something.
The Pharaoh’s cook is extremely fussy about how his kitchen looks. He has a big, square box of 81 eggs (9 rows with 9 eggs in each row). He’s about to make an enourmous 48 egg omelette for the Pharaoh’s family, but can’t bear to leave an unsymmetrical pattern of eggs in the box. In fact he’s so fussy, that he wants the pattern to be symmetrical when viewed from any corner or any side, and wants there to be 16 rows of eggs, with five eggs in each row! Can you make such a pattern with the remaining 33 eggs?
16 rows of 5 eggs each is 80 eggs. I fail to see how that could be accomplished with 33 eggs unless you scrambled them and broke them into smaller parts.
I have no idea about the solution to this problem, but I would assume this would be accomplished by making the rows overlap so that each row contains eggs that are also included in other rows.
The following has 16 rows of 5, but it also has 4 rows of 6 and 12 rows of 2. So I’m not sure if it counts:
X . X . X . X . X
. . . X . X . . .
X . X . X . X . X
. X . . . . . X .
X . X . X . X . X
. X . . . . . X .
X . X . X . X . X
. . . X . X . . .
X . X . X . X . X
Because rows should be horizontal and columns vertical, right? Well, on the screen that’s how it appears, but in the cook’s kitchen, the egg box is presumably laying down so that any consecutive egg line is horizontal. So, they’re all rows.
