I'm just about gone insane with this! Anyone up for the challenge too? I have 9 squares open but none of them complete.




Before you criticize someone walk a mile in their shoes. That way you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I have 3 left on the outer edges of the farm one. Anyone moved on to other squares yet?

Superlion, it did this to me too when i first tried... look for an ok or start button under the instructions.

Alright, I googled some of this stuff, and got REALLY far...

If any of you want a 3/4 of the answers (which will take the fun out of the whole thing), you can merge with me. Hit Save Game and paste this (http://shygypsy.com/farm/p.cgi?state=fcpbcbiaabaibdacfbibcbcbaakbacaccmhbiimaleefaffabdbeaaalbcgcfaeaaopigaakijcmeaaaaalnoaipdaaihaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa&style=wbbvbxdnzvdspenrswpcwjxqswdzfvyvrxeapswextgrbwcdsqvsqvyjrzbauygygjreidjw&i=2&j=2&cmd=guess&guess=+) into the bottom field and hit enter.

That's why you save your little text string before you do stuff like that

I probably should have told you that beforehand... sorry...

So, NOTE: Save your little text string before you try to merge with another!

Yay I was only missing godzilla. Puzzle done. The 3 comics your missing are The flash, Kid flash, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Dissapointingly all you get for finishing the puzzle is the fact you finished it. Not even a good job message.

Well, I'm stuck. I've got four left on the farm one, leading off 'chicken', 'barn', 'cow' and 'cowboy'.

Each item is related in some way to the item it is connected to. So, for example, something you find on the farm is "Chicken". Then yo have to think of some things connected with chickens - e.g., names of the different genders, what they produce, things like that. Then when you get to the outskirts of the square, the relationships between words undergo changes, because there's a word in the centre of the adjoining square that determines the kind of relationships to look for in that square. Some of which are connected in strange ways to the words that lie on the overlaps between squares. "Pig" is a word that overlaps the boundary between two squares, and when you get that word, you can click on the minimap and find out what awaits you in the next square.

It's supposed to be soemthing akin to the way a neural net stores knowledge conceptually, though whether its associative ties are the ones we would use within our brains is a moot point. I have a strange feeling that this was generated in part by computer, and so you not only have to get inside the head(s) of the humans that devised this puzzle, but inside the 'head' of the computer that was involved too - which is even nastier if the computer was running neural net software at the time ...

Oh and of course it uses American spellings, doesn't it? Which means that though I guessed that "plough" was one of the items that matched, it wanted me to spell it "plow". A little something to bear in mind for those of us who aren't part of the McEmpire ...
