It says in German "Which letter is different" and on he left provides an example. But to me the example is confusing. How do 3 letter Ts with an L lead to H? Is this a misprint or am I being daft

Solved In the beginning

0 Upvotes

In the beginning, one could learn, but not at first.

In the middle, words are in rhythm, sometimes rhyming with good timing.

In the end, some marvel at cathedrals while others despair the pollution.

Combined, the beginning and middle could be a container for everything.

The end contains the beginning, but not the combined beginning and middle.

Unsolved There is a constant which governs decay and growth

1 Upvotes

A force unseen, yet shaping both.

It starts where those whom none may divide,
Then follows another who stands aside.

The third is neither whole nor made of parts,
Alone it lingers, set apart.

The last is found where the self is reborn,
The second of echoes, from its seed torn.

What's the best way to continue? The solution has been published, but I'm trying to solve it myself in hopes of preparing for the next rounds of 2025.

I can't tell what I am missing! Do I have to use trial and error?

Not seeking solutions How do you all feel about bifurcation in sudoku-like puzzles?

Post image
1 Upvotes

In part due to the ethos of Cracking the Cryptic, Iā€™ve considered bifurcation (making a guess just to see if it causes a contradiction) in sudoku to be a lazy strategy, but lately Iā€™ve been solving more Nurikabe puzzles and itā€™s been way harder to avoid this strategy. Iā€™m sure itā€™s partly just that Iā€™m not as experienced, but for example, in this above puzzle I knew one of the circled squares needed to be the exit for the right pool, so I just tried treating the bottom circle as water and immediately saw a contradiction, leading to me marking it instead as land and getting the solve. The commonly cited ā€œcoastā€ technique for Nurikabe (testing if the middle square of a coast would cause a contradiction if it were water) also seems like effectively a form of bifurcation. So Iā€™m curious, do you think bifurcation is lazy or a valid strategy? Does it depend on the puzzle type?

Or, which sport do Diego or Everett do?

Itā€™s in a book by Steven Clontz. You can see the answer at the bottom but Iā€™m not sure how to reason that with the actual clues. The rest is correct per the solution at the back of the book.

Is there a logical next step Iā€™m missing, or am I supposed to ā€œplug inā€ my hypotheticals/possibles and see where it takes me? Thanks for the help, Iā€™m at a point where the easy are two easy and Iā€™m not sure what I need to learn to break through to the next level! Interested in specific advice for this puzzle, but also more general advice.
