GgSeverin Posted April 10, 2009 Report Posted April 10, 2009 done it. mailed to Mur. and nothing. Is there an automatic reward now? Begging Mur doesn't give results 2 me.
Root Admin Chewett Posted April 10, 2009 Root Admin Report Posted April 10, 2009 He will reward you when he sees the puzzle in his email. so that may be a few days.
Akasha Posted April 10, 2009 Author Report Posted April 10, 2009 As i know, these days the black ones are not good.

Kyphis the Bard Posted April 11, 2009 Report Posted April 11, 2009 Befor I get stuck into this one, anyone know if there is still any reward to be gained?
Akasha Posted April 11, 2009 Author Report Posted April 11, 2009 Pls, look a bit up, few posts u will find the answer.
Macnia Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 Well havent tried it in a long time. Getting them all Black was the easy part. Turning them all Orange is mega difficult.... you have to have a photograhic memory An automatic prize would be best Macnia
Grido Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 if i recall an automatic prize was going to be implemented ''later'', later being said after the original people were awarded within the 24 hours or so of it opening, this hasnt happened yet, i presume Mur either forgot about doing it, or just got busy on other things
Liberty4life Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 or wants to prevent cheaters from getting it, if it was automated then somebody could tell you solution and you would get awarded, while this way, mur wants to be sure that you are able to solve it and that you actually solved it, and also to prevent alts from getting reward, for example if i solve it with my main and all my alts, my alts wont get reward if it is automated we all get reward, kapish? good
Harion Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 well, there should at least be a note on that garden saying you should take a screenshot if you solve the puzzle (one showing your name i should add) as rewards aren't automatic and needs to be proven and also, most importantly, when to know you've solved it coz obviously, even if you turn it all black or all orange if nothing happens on the screen no glowing or nothing that says, congratulations you'll just keep clicking on waiting for something to happen i mean, 1st time i wandered there i knew it was a puzzle i thought a set pattern was needed so i just kept clicking hoping to activate something or open a gate, or cause an item to magically appear good lord, good thing i came here so i know next time what consists a solved puzzle otherwise i would've solved it and never knew and just kept stupidly waiting for a genie to magically appear at least the ball in berserker's way activates when you solve it
Watcher Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 Harion, it is clear you have not solved the Broken Pattern Gazebo puzzle. Otherwise, you would know that your protestations about 'not knowing you solved it' are completely baseless.
Harion Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 good to know you can state the obvious coz OBVIOUSLY if i HAD solved it and everyone who's solved it WOULD KNOW then i wouldn't be saying what i posted before, would i? or are you pointing out i was claiming i solved the puzzle? good to know you need your reading comprehension improved then coz i claimed nothing of the fact
Watcher Posted April 24, 2009 Report Posted April 24, 2009 (edited) It is clear that I do not need my "reading comprehension improved," as I understood exactly what it was you were rambling about. However, it is apparent that you need to learn what you are talking about before you spout off a pointless rant. I was simply noting that your incoherent tirade was unnecessary: when one solves the puzzle, a message appears stating exactly what needs to be done to receive a reward. A sign or a note or anything else is not needed. So, when you say: [quote name='Harion' post='29312' date='Apr 23 2009, 05:57 PM']good lord, good thing i came here so i know next time what consists a solved puzzle otherwise i would've solved it and never knew and just kept stupidly waiting for a genie to magically appear at least the ball in berserker's way activates when you solve it[/quote] you look like a fool who is angry about something with which he is ignorant. Any would [i]plainly[/i] know if it had been solved. Again, your post was pointless. But I suppose that much is obvious. Edited April 24, 2009 by Watcher dst 1
Harion Posted April 24, 2009 Report Posted April 24, 2009 ^^ i wonder who's the fool the one berating a newb for voicing out something he doesn't know or the newb voicing out something he doesn't know... hmm... let me go and check my obvious meter
dst Posted April 24, 2009 Report Posted April 24, 2009 Ok, no need for foul words. Harion, of course that when you solve the BP you will get a message (isn't that normal? I think it is). And in case you don't know how that puzzle works you can ask other players. If you haven't discovered by now this game has no walk through or help like other games have. It has something special: it has people dedicated to helping new players (LHOs). But also if you go to a public place (mainly where old players hang around) and ask you will always get an answer. Watcher, i know you play the role of the bad guy on the forum but sometimes is better to stick to old guys and leave the new ones for others who have patience (and I am not talking about me ). And one more thing for the ones that solved the puzzle but never got a reward: the reward will be given. When? Hopefully soon.
FireLizSword Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 Finally: [url="http://s566.photobucket.com/albums/ss107/FireLizSword/?action=view¤t=BrokenPatternGazebo.jpg&newest=1"]http://s566.photobucket.com/albums/ss107/F...pg&newest=1[/url] I'm not sure how to get in contact with Mur so if one of the RPC's could relay or message me oh to get in contact with him. I spent enough time (and ink and paper and stress) on this endeavor already. Thanks (I think, Some puzzles finding the key is the hardest part or how to solve the puzzle.)
awiiya Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 There is a link that should come up. Did nothing show up? Awi
Numerius Felix Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 I solved the puzzle after about twenty hours of semi-brute force search over teh course of three days, but everyone knows what it looks like; no need to "learn something new" and post a pic
Ignatious Posted August 6, 2009 Report Posted August 6, 2009 So there is no current reward for this puzzle? I was also trying to turn them all black...maybe I will try orange before advancing to MP4.
dst Posted August 6, 2009 Report Posted August 6, 2009 The reward for solving the puzzle is a wishpoint. You solve it, send an e-mail to Mur (after solving it you'll get some details) then wait until he has time to give you the wp. The only issue is that Mur is usually busy so it might take a while until you'll get it.
Shadowseeker Posted August 6, 2009 Report Posted August 6, 2009 Well, he however said he might want to reconsider the reward I think, since all solutions end up the same lately. And you need orange, black is rather easy.
Numerius Felix Posted August 6, 2009 Report Posted August 6, 2009 Yes, there is a highly obvious, boring, and time-consuming algorithm that can be used for this puzzle, doubtless far from optimal.
dst Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 [quote name='Numerius Felix' date='07 August 2009 - 02:52 AM' timestamp='1249602730' post='38878'] Yes, there is a highly obvious, boring, and time-consuming algorithm that can be used for this puzzle, doubtless far from optimal. [/quote] Actually it's a nice and easy algorithm that takes you no more than half an hour (maybe less) to apply it once you have everything ready.
Shadowseeker Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 Or you just skip algorithms and thinks for a bit with paper and pen and take a few hours.. Depends on what you want to do, can you code faster or calculate faster. Ackshan Bemunah 1

Depends on what you want to do, can you code faster or calculate faster. [/quote] The algorithm I use is only 20 lines long in c++, while it does over 22 015 calculations. Which is next to nothing for a computer; it solves it instantly. Out of curiosity I wrote a brute force algorithm once. Even with some optimization and a dual core computer I estimate it takes 7 hours to solve the puzzle. Personally I'd suggest coding, with that amount of calculations it is very easy to ruin it by being sloppy. And I don't recommend trying it at random, although rumor has it someone did find it that way.
