#710 - “Just State the Facts”

[Barney]

Thanks, boharr & Joe Ross.

My answer was much more complicated.

Whiffing on a Week One.

Three words. Puh The Tic

Got interrupted while working the grid last night and didn't get back to it until just now. Just a little bit of research to confirm my entry and beamed up. Of course right after the last update, so won't see my name on the "leader"board for a while. I put the "leader" part in quotes as it's hard to call my place that far down the list a leader position.

Geography.

Yay.

At least it was a Week 1.

I'm a little annoyed at the badges. I've been doing these for 4 weeks now and first week I solo solved a week three. So I get a week 3 and a solo badge. Next week I do a week 4 group. So I get a week 4 badge and a group solve.... and a "great minds get the same wrong answer". Huh? For two puzzles I get three statuses? The following week I fail a week 5 and my badges remain unchanged. Oh, well, that week I earned the "great minds". So yesterday I solve my first week 1. And I now have a week 1 badge... and a week 2... despite not having been subscribe long enough to do a week two. Five statuses for four puzzles.

Anyone else have issues like these? Any-one else care? I suppose I shouldn't be when thinks don't work right I get a headache... (I *always* have a headache...)

I wonder if someone else used the same username once upon a time and your record is getting mixed with theirs. The Overall tab is showing that you’ve solved 4 puzzles.

Anyway, @Alex Boisvert is Matt’s webmaster, and could probably look into it for you.

I've only solved 3.

Yeah... I don't know if I really want to bother him.

Weird thing is that neither the week one and week two badge showed up until yesterday when I solved the week 1 puzzle.

I looked at this again and think I solved. This one really was a true solo but done the easiest way possible.

woozy I have you down as having solved the DOUBLE DATING meta, which was a week 2, so it looks like your achievements are accurate.

Beamed up on Friday at #378.

I tried to give myself an extra challenge this week (since it's the first Friday) and solve the puzzle without looking at the hint. I couldn't seem to figure it out, so today I allowed myself to look at the hint. Not one second after looking at it, it came to me entirely. I cannot believe this wasn't the first thing I tried. I feel so foolish! Can't wait to try again next month to see if I can solve it without the hint.
