I keep trying it, but it won’t work for me. Doesn’t like how I’m entering my answers or something. I restarted it, same clue, same name, but now it won’t accept it.

I wasn't able to put "Elwe" for the first clue. Use "Thingol".

I am, but it still won’t take it. I’m pretty sure the second answer is “Olwe” but it doesn’t like him either.

Thingol is the one who stopped partway, so he should be in A6. And Olwe's answer comes from Thingol's clue.

Right. That’s what I’m trying to do.

Hmmm, interesting. That's quite odd.

I finished it but barely.

Maybe try it with your phone if you're going with you computer.

Glorfindel Goldtress · Sep 9, 2023

Sounds like my first time!

Fingon_Findekáno · Sep 9, 2023

I finally figured it out! You have to click on the coordinating box to input the answer. You also can go in any order you like as you go further along and have more clues to work with, especially if one clue hints at more than one box.

I think it maybe would be better on a computer screen, if you can see the whole grid at once. On my phone, it zooms in so I can only see a few boxes at a time and have to keep scrolling around, and I can’t zoom out. Wasted a lot of time doing that.

This looks interesting, I'd like to give it a try but I'd better get some homework done first!

What was your time?

I maxed out, and only got 20/36 (56%) completed.

Fingon_Findekáno · Sep 9, 2023

Part of that time early on was spent trying to figure out how it worked, but then much of it was scrolling around all over the board and testing various boxes for answers.

Glorfindel Goldtress · Sep 9, 2023

Hey, that's all right! That's great for your first logic puzzle ever 👏

Tyelkormo the Fair · Sep 9, 2023

I get it.
The part with Maedhros' hint was particularly hard.

Ah, well done. But was your computer lagging every two minutes?

nah, I guess you got me there!
But I was interrupted by someone else and talked to them for a bit in the middle.

And you didn't use the "PAUSE" button? 😉

Mwahahaha-- Just jesting, it was never a competition!

I didn't look for one, and thus didn't use it 😁
