Tanga

Tanga - One Big Huge Fetchin' Mystery

So, is anyone in the group participating in this? I've solved a grand total of one puzzle so far, and I must admit that I apparently suck at these. Hopefully someone in our fair group will bring home some loot.

I already have.

Dayna has been solving these and won Thurn and Taxis three days in.

Not bad. I think the puzzles started out pretty hard but have become a little too easy recently (the last six solves of mine add up to a little over three minutes!). Oh and I've solved them all if anyone needs help.

Site kicks off soon so I'm interested to see what all these points will be for. My hopes aren't very high though.

I don't want to say this on BGG, since the Tanga people are providing a lot of nice prizes and seem very defensive about criticism. But with maybe two exceptions, these are the crappiest puzzles of this style I've ever seen. The last two have shattered the Stupid Answer scale.

As I pointed out a couple of times in the monster BGG thread, the best puzzles of this kind can be found at http://www.dumbthegame.com. Be warned that these are *much* tougher -- some of them took me several weeks. But they are so much more enjoyable, and satisfying when finished, that you'll want to put in the effort.

Okay, now that I went back to the site with the thought in mind that the puzzles had stupid, easy answers I knocked off four in ten minutes.... Grrrr....

I've gotten them all so far. I've been using spoilers for about a third of them since I don't want to spend a lot of time on stupid puzzles. Dennis is right; these are lame. I'm only slogging onward now because I have a considerable amount of time invested and I want to be eligible for whatever special prize they're doing for everyone who has completed all the puzzles plus I want maximum "Tanga points" incase they actually turn out to be worth something.

You Tanga do so-so, squish! Just like grape.
