Puzzle #2 is ready to go. Here's the link to it:

The Almost Daily Puzzler in Remembrance of Landon Smith

This is a jigsaw puzzle. Your challenge is to identify the IAP member who made the item shown in the jigsaw puzzle.

Once you solve the jigsaw puzzle, search the IAP archives to figure out who made the item. When you think you know who made the item, click on the Enter Completion Code link on the puzzle page. That link will bring up an entry form - fill out all the information on the form and enter the IAP username of the member who made the item in the puzzle in the Proof of Completion field. Note: your IAP Username goes in the IAP Username field.

You may enter only once and you cannot make any changes once you submit your entry. You will have at least 24 hours from the time of this post to complete the puzzle. All correct entries will earn one point toward the overall puzzle prize count.

Post any questions that you might have in this thread.

As always, banter is welcome & encouraged, but please do not ask for or post any real hints.

Good luck
Edgar

Oh Oh I know, I know, pick me!!!

It must be made from a 2x4

You must be slipping some Edgar. I actually got this one! Frankly I wouldn't mind if they were all about this same difficulty. Sort of gives me a feeling of accomplishment.

 

[mredburn]

I think you should make them 600 pieces so that they present a challenge.

 

[SteveJ]

Quit with the ideas Mike....

Huummmm .... The puzzle page is blank. Is it me?

I had to use my computer, my iPad didn't support it, if that helps.

That must be it since I'm on my iPad. I'll give the ol' pc a go.

Thanks for this one, Edgar -- I wish I could make pens as quickly as solving the jigsaw puzzle!

 

[MesquiteMan]

You will not be able to do many of the puzzles on an ipad. Just like last year, the year before, and the year before that, many of the puzzles use flash. Flash is not supported by ipad or iphone.

I am the one generating the puzzles for Edgar and don't worry, they will get harder. Didn't want to start out too hard on the first one!

 

[mredburn]

Will the last one be all one color?

 

[MesquiteMan]

Will the last one be all one color?

Probably!

 

[Edward Cypher]

I hope no one is listening to Mike. LOL This was much easier than some have been but it was fun also. Keep up the good work.

MIKE - QUIT WITH THE IDEAS

Also, see post #5 above. :curse:

 

[mredburn]

Sheesh...... Try and make it more challenging (FUN) and look at the thanks you get.:biggrin::biggrin:

 

[Pete275]

Just wondering, I put the puzzle together earlier but had to leave before finding out who made it. Does this mean I will have to put the puzzle together again in order to have access to the answer page?

 

[Pete275]

Never mind I just figured this one out for myself!!!!

I am feeling pretty dumb, I searched and searched and could not find the picture. Could someone give me a clue now?

After a few false leads, I searched for "scimitar" (the shape of the pen clip).

 

[The Penguin]

I don't think I found it by searching "scimitar" - pretty sure I found it by using "sword"

 

[Cwalker935]

I don't think I found it by searching "scimitar" - pretty sure I found it by using "sword"

I searched sword, cutlass, saber, sabre, knife, everything but scimitar. I almost guessed it was Bruce but didn't. It reminded of his work. Oh well.

 

[The Penguin]

well, there was another trick to help narrow it down...but I can't give away all my tricks.

:biggrin:

 

[Edgar]

The mug was intended to be the major clue.

It was a 2009 Bash mug. That might help to narrow down the area in the IAP archives where you needed to look.

I'll give the actual answer later in case you want to do a little more research for fun. :devil:

I thought that I searched for that too.

 

[Pete275]

I found the picture in the archives by searching for "Mug Shots". It took me right to where I needed to go.

You guys used words that were too fancy. I went with something like"pirate clip" and it was right there.:biggrin:

I used date on the mug and searched in the 2009 bash archives. It was several pages in, but there it was,

 

[markgum]

very difficult when under a time crunch. had to get to the "day job" and skipped reading the instructions.. UGH....

However, it is Good to see a Puzzle in Remembrance of Landon. I remember Landon encouraging me when he ran the puzzle events. He gave a lot to IAP and he left us way to early.
