NeoPets Riddles (Lenny Conundrums) and Answers Here

Bullzeye- Why would you square it?

This is the same method I used, I'm hoping I got it right!

-------------------------------

Crap! Thsi method can have different answers.

Say the Xs are each filled with 1-9.

You can multiply them differently to get different answers.
EX:
(1x2x3x4x5x6x7x8x9)squared
(1x2x3x4x5x6x7x8x9)2

They said that numbers 1-9 would be used, but there is no one to say that 1-9 will appear only once in the circles, and that all of them will be in the circles. You are making an assumption, not logically solving the puzzle.

hmm
the 1x2x3 thing is wrong anyway, look at the first circle, if you put a 1 in it, to get 8 horizontally the box alongside needs to be a 7 and the vertical sum with the 7 in it is 14, which means you need another 7 which you cant do. *wipes forehead*

-----------------
Wrong! They said that 1-9 will only appear in each SET! We don't know what a SET is. So, LOGICALLY, we don't even know if 1-9 will only appear once in each row/column! By your logic, we all could be doing it wrong.

---------------------
Maybe the entire puzzle was made just to stray us from thinking about the obvious? That could explain the error in the upper left corner, eh?

hmm, has anyone gotten any circles filled in yet? Ive got a few but I working on it from a few educated guesses

You must fill in each empty square with a digits from 1-9 such that the vertical sums of the digits match the number above the column, and the horizontal sums match the numbers to the left of the row. No digit will be used more than once in a set. Once you figure out the digits, multiply all of the digits in the circled squares to get your answer.

These are the instructions. If you read these correctly, each set means each set of horizontal or vertical blocks used to make a sum. It does not say that 1-9 will only be used once in the circles, it doesn't mention the circles until AFTER you have solved the puzzle.

But then again, don't listen to me, work on assumptions, that is always a good choice! LOL

Viper- try putting the 1 in a DIFFERENT circle in the X. I never said that they had to be in order.

Imafa, I'm still missing the part where it defines what a set it. YOU'RE assuming that a set is a row/column, even though it DOES NOT say, "A set is a row or column." Hypocrite.

you are talking about an infinite number of possiblities then o_0 from the calculations Ive done so far, it definitely doesnt look like a 1-9 in the circles

It's badly worded, but a set is an unbroken line of blocks to the right of or beneath the orange numbers. This is how Kakuro works, this is how veterans of Kakuro would solve it, this is how you would assume it works if you believe it is supposed to be solvable.

Also, a hypocrite is someone who says, for instance, "Stealing is wrong!" but steals things. I don't see anything hypocritical about assuming something that isn't said--that's why it's ASSUMED.

Jen, read earlier. I was being told that I was assuming things. Which I am, I'm not going to argue that. But now she/he's assuming things. That's what makes he/she a hypocrite.

I'm not saying I'm right. I'm just proposing my idea and backing it up with what I think.

I'm ABSULUTLY SURE about that number ^_^

but I dont want to think about it anymore, good luck for evebody D:

What iamafa is saying here is that 1-9 is used [throughout the puzzle], but there is nothing to suggest that 1-9 would each appear once in the circled squares. That is then an assumption to think they would--because they COULD, and law of averages suggests it might work--but without solving the puzzle, for all you know ALL of the circles could be 9, for instance. iamafa is actually not assuming anything.

btw, Absolutly sure abou all those numbers ^_^
but its not enough to answer so I put 131681894400, need luck

ok, Im sick of looking at numbers now, I need a break before I hurt something

Thank you Jen for saying more eloquently what I was trying to say. I wasn't saying I had the answer, just not to assume one way or the other. I'm no hypocrite, I just don't want anyone reading this thread to get locked into thinking that they can't place a 4 in more than one circle per X because maybe it isn't the case.

We don't even know if we NEED to solve the puzzle.
No matter what we put, whether the answer is right or not, when we answer the Lenny Conundrum we're ALWAYS assuming.

The only reason I'm stuck on my current theory is because of that stupid error at the top-left corner.

Yours setting doesn't have any solution or it's incorrect. If you want to change setting you can click on "back" button in your web browser.

OFFICIAL: Its unsolvable, what do we put as the answer then?

Guys? Do we type unsolvable or impossible?

numbers^
how are you sure about those numbers?

i was reading the backposts
there could be a zero

2 x 5 = 10
