The Complete Fool has finished it.
Is it just me being more used to the puzzles SS produces, or are these slightly easier than Issue 1? I needed less help from others this time.

I found the end game a lot easier. I knew what I was doing this time. (Might have been a lucky guess I suppose)

Think I need a bit of a nudge too. I have all the answers except picses, but I don't have a clue how to put them into numerical order. Or if one of the method's I've tried was the right one, then I didn't get what I was meant to do after that! Help!!!!

I like the sound of nudges, allthough giraffe told me that you weren't allowed nudges on this last bit. :o

She did however give me a nudge but as far as I am currently concerned,I'm not sure that she nudged me in the right direction. :?

Honestly Scurra, it wasn't really a nudge. I just told him which of his answers were most likely to give him an idea. (But they don't seem to have done)

Well if it makes you feel any better, I've only just answered my first one - and it took a few pokes and prods from LAT along the way :oops:

Congratulations to the Ladybird. And yes, Madame Arcana may eventually stop laughing. But not for a while yet... :lol:

Thanks - just realised I've pm'd you Scurra when I meant to put the message up here :oops: but once again thanks for listening to my mad and muddled ideas and trying not to laugh (too much)! :D

Well done Maisie Ladybird. Good to see that you have solved it and by actually working out the prediction unlike me. :roll:
