Extracurricular Activity -- Skeet Shooting Club Solution
+
+
When you attempt to solve this puzzle, you quickly discover that
+ the words don't match the clues. None of them are an anagram of a
+ planet, and "pluralized by adding three letters" suggests "child"
+ but what's there instead is CHILL. You have to change one letter
+ in each word to make them work. That's the "other thing" you were
+ supposed to figure out.
+
+
Which word:
+ anagrams to the name of a planet? HEARD -> HEART
+ (EARTH)
+ appears elsewhere in these questions? PLANES -> PLANET
+ becomes a new word when you remove both T's? LESTER ->
+ LETTER (LEER)
+ becomes its own synonym if you drop its first and fifth letters? EVALUATE
+ -> EVACUATE (VACATE)
+ becomes the name of a fish if you swap the letters on its ends? PUNT
+ -> AUNT (TUNA)
+ changes gender by having SS added to the end? PRANCE ->
+ PRINCE (PRINCESS)
+ contains three pairs of double letters? COMMITTED ->
+ COMMITTEE
+ forms new words upon removing its first, second, or both first and
+ second letters? SLAKE -> SLATE (LATE, SATE, ATE)
+ has been a name in the news of late? MUDDY -> BUDDY (Errata: the "name in the news" is not
+ the name of a human being)
+ has the same cryptographic pattern as FLOODED? COLLAGE
+ -> COLLEGE
+ is a first name of a famous director with the same cryptographic
+ pattern as the director's last name? WORDY -> WOODY
+ (ALLEN)
+ is also the name of a fictional rat? SPLITTER ->
+ SPLINTER
+ is a name sounding like a famous film monster? ROBIN ->
+ RODIN (RODAN)
+ is Pig Latin for a name meaning "king"? PRAY -> XRAY
+ (REX)
+ is pluralized by adding three letters? CHILL -> CHILD
+ (CHILDREN)
+ is the name of a cable channel? BRAVE -> BRAVO
+ is transformed to a new word when its first letter is changed to a
+ D and moved to the end? SALOON -> SALMON (ALMOND)
+ sounds like a word meaning "gospel" when pronounced with a lisp? TRACE
+ -> TRUCE (TRUTH)
+ spells a word meaning "jelly" if its last letter is moved to the

+ uses all the letters that appear in the last seven words of a

+
+
The changed letters aren't used. But the leftover words are

+When someone uses a Swype-style keyboard to enter text into a
+mobile device, the software usually draws a line representing
+the path their finger has taken. Each image in this puzzle
+depicts the finger-paths for multiple words in a sentence or
+sentence fragment, with the keyboard itself removed.
+
+
+The title is a reference to Swiper from Dora the Explorer,
+meant to help confirm to the solvers that if they're thinking
+about the Swype keyboard then they're on the right track.
+
+
+To figure out the text, solvers need to isolate each
+indidivual finger-path, map it approximately to a keyboard,
+and figure out which word is being entered.
+
+
+The path for each word may start at one end or the other, so
+solvers have to consider both orderings when guessing the
+word. It will be easier to guess the word if the solvers
+find an appropriate image of a swype keyboard and figure out
+how to align it onto these images. For example, swype.com
+has some images which, if cropped and scaled properly, should
+line up fine. These images use only the alphabetic letters
+of the keyboard, the fourth row is not used.
+
+
+For example, here is the fourth image with the keyboard
+underneath it:
+
+
+
+
+
+And here is one of the words of that image, isolated:
+
+
+
+
+
+In this example, it looks like 'E' 'F' and 'A' are probably
+letters in the word, since the typist "cornered" on those
+letters, and 'S' and 'Y' as well, since those are the
+endpoints. Other letters along the way may be involved,
+but the only word that matches SA[D]F[DR]E[RT]Y (or the
+other direction, Y[TR]E[RD]F[D]AS) is SAFETY.
+
+
+Once solvers have the words, they must determine the phrase
+for that image and identify its source. Each image
+corresponds to text delivered in a movie over a phone or some
+phone-like device. Solvers must identify the movies, and use
+the parenthesized numbers from the puzzle as indexes into the
+movie titles.

Each of the three Routes is a Masyu puzzle, a logic puzzle type popularized by Nikoli. Deduce the rules of Subway Masyu, which are an extension of standard Masyu rules:
+
+
Make a closed loop that visits all the given circles and does not visit the same station twice.
+
At a black circle, you must transfer to a different-colored line, and must not transfer at either the station before or the station after.
+
At a white circle, you must not transfer, but must transfer at either or both of the neighboring stations.
+
+
+
+
Any stations that are connected together on the standard Tube map are treated as a single station. For example, Bank and Monument are labeled separately, but the stations are interlinked, and are drawn as such on the map. (The puzzle also makes clear that they are considered a single station by giving the name of the station as "Bank/Monument".)
+
+
For each listed pair of stations, determine how many of the stations (0, 1, or 2) each route visits. Read the resulting three-digits number as a ternary number and convert each to a letter to get the answer PEARL HOMINY.

Each phrase clues a person who is frequently referred to by two initials and a surname. Furthermore, each clue contains an anagram of that person's name with one letter changed. The original letters from the people's names read out HE WROTE OF ANIMALS. By the same transform, ANIMALS becomes the answer: AA MILNE.

+ A Puzzle with the Answer YOUKILIS (The White Queen)
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Congrats! You've solved this puzzle. The answer is YOUKILIS. However, you don't know the puzzle's title. When you think you've gotten the title, submit it.

+

"It's time for a vacation!" says the White Queen, looking over some possible plane trips she might take as part of her projected itinerary. But the geography here isn't quite the kind of geography she's used to in Wonderland ...

+
Things to notice about the financial statements:
+
+
There is enough information to match the company profiles to the financial
+statements, and so put the financial statements in order.
+
The number "614050" appears frequently and is in a different font. This
+should be the most notable thing about the cash flow statements.
+
When the statements are put in order, the tax amounts (in the statement of
+operations) can be converted to numbers to read "Taxes form a red herring."
+
Some lines in the Statement of Assets & Liabilities don't add up right:
+they're off by a number between 1 and 26.
+
+
+
Given the above, the steps to solving this puzzle are:
+
+
Match statements to company descriptions
+
+
This gives an ordering of the financial statements.
+
+
The keys to matching are:
+
+
+
Size of a company: there are a few initial revenue numbers: 100,000; 50,000; 30,000; 10,000.
+
Speed a company gets paid or pays its bills: "Receivables days" and "payables days" are well-defined concepts.
+
Amount of inventory a company holds: Restaurants, for instance, hold inventory only for a few days because most of it is perishable.
+Note that the puzzle should be solvable without knowing those things in advance, since "payables days", "receivables days", and "inventory days" are referred to in a company description, and these are google-able.
+
Interest paid on loans: higher by customers of First Wonderland, lower by customers of the Standard Bank.
+
"Intangible assets" or brand worth, held by companies with consumer brands
+
"Goodwill" some companies have accumulated by acquiring companies for more than the acquisitions' book
+values
+
And a few special items, such as:
+
+
legal fees awarded from one company to another
+
dividends paid by companies owned by the Red Queen or White King
+
+
+
+
Find errors in the financial statements; convert to letters
+
+
These are lines that don't "add up". Each statement has a line off by a value < 26; these can be converted to letters (1 = A, 2 = B, etc) to spell the clue phrase "SEARCHHBSPHARVARDEDU" or Search hbsp.harvard.edu.
+
+
Search for the out-of-place number
+
+
If you search hbsp.harvard.edu for "614050"—every company's cash balance at the end of the period, the only number introduced that's not a multiple of 100, and the amount of other items such as legal fees or goodwill—you'll find a case titled "MIT Mystery Hunt: The Answer is SECONDARY".

+Original concept: Brandy Buckingham
+
+
Solve each logic puzzle. For each given number that is on a mushroom,
+ you must either add 1 to or subtract 1 from the clue, as instructed.
+
+
There is also a tiny, tiny letter hidden on each mushroom. "Grow" the
+ mushrooms by zooming in. The mushroom letters in each puzzle spell a
+member of a group that can be ordered by size. For each +1 mushroom,
+move one position up (larger) in the size ordering, and for each -1
+mushroom, move one position down (smaller).
+
+
+A zoomed in mushroom with the letter L.
+
+
Read the first letters of the resulting items to find the answer, SLUGGISH.
