Title: Brain warm-up U (Uninspired Number Puzzle)
Post by: EvilAndrew on 2005-03-26T21:06:27-06:00 (Saturday)
I have become exceptionally busy in the last few weeks and have not had time to update my site.  I suspect this state of affairs will continue for the rest of the semester.  So, I am leaving off work on the last few puzzles.  However, I really like puzzle U (http://lamonica.info/CAOSPuzzle/U.html) and although it is not completely done (it still runs a little slow and has a minor UI bug in FireFox) I have decided to post it.

If time becomes available to my I will try and complete the other remaining puzzles (or replacement with less complicated ones), but for now, please content yourselves with this one.

Thank you for your participation,
R. Andrew Lamonica

Wow, I had no idea this one would be so hard.  Noone has even solved the easiest of the three puzzles.

BTW.  If this is because the directions are unclear then someone please post that fact to the thread.  Thanks.

Maybe they're all as busy as you    ;-)

Or maybe they're just brain-fried wusses  :-P
