    Tass' Mental Challenge - Starts Wed 10/24 @ 6pm EST

    lets say 10,000 credits for the 1st to solve, 5000 for 2nd. But, we all know... the real prize is solving it and the associated bragging rights.

    The format is pretty much identical to Rubix's 2 puzzles, so if you liked those, you'll like this. If you didn't like his... you'll still like this. Cause I'm just that cool.

    Will update this post with the riddles when it's time. Feel free to post comments below... I know a few of you are looking forward to this.

    And don't forget... the 1st step to solving it is to attempt it.


    THE CHALLENGE!


    Note: To make it clear... when you solve all 7, the way to submit your answer will become clear. Do NOT post any answers or hints here. Also, since it doesn't specifically say it... Challenge 7 manipulates the answers from Challenges 1-6 (like Rubix's... just not spelled out as clearly).

    "And they were herded 3 by 3, numbers and letters alike, onto the ark.

What is his English name? When you figure it out, please give him my regards."

        2nd hint to Challenge #5:
        A general characteristic to a good set of steps is that they are each of a uniform length/shape/size/etc and/or uniform distance from each other.

          Heyy I edited my post to remove the arrogance Shhhh.

          It's very possible someone else will get it first. It should still be a blast though

                    Yay, puzzles!

                    If I do try and win this, I'd have to do the whole thing in under an hour. That's probably wishful thinking on my part, but I'm going for it anyway.

                      i've informed some smart FFRers about this... Reach, Guido, Chardish, Blahblah... hopefully someone will give Rubix a run for his money.
