Nothing's impossible. This is the first out of the 10 questions NuclearSilo posted that is assigned "HARD"? I don't know the answer, but I'll ask D2A. He knows almost everything.

@Thiefz #2 Q: Cut the number by half, u'll have 6 in reverse.


Huh? If you cut 9 in half, don't you have 4.5? Anyways, you have to make a stroke with a pen to turn the roman numeral 9 into a six. and also the answer needs to be a pic too lol

Because it's been a long ass time and no one can solve the enigma cuz it's the toughest one, the first "HARD" rating puzzle Nuclear's posted.

Anyways, D2A responded to me with the solution on MSN:

Image

appears like he printed it out and solve it using some kind of weird shit and scanned it. no way i could have ever thought of that, but its not surprising since he was the first one to solve the damage formula, HP formula, the SP gap chart formula that Gul used on nivlam.com, and who knows what else.

Nope. U dont have glue nor vis to stick the woods together => not stable
I clearly wrote "only"

Note: the width of the wood is about 30-40 cm, but not much and less than 1m. In anyway, wood length + width << 4m

stable = when ppl can walk on and the bridge wont break
your bridge simply lack of support

Later, after i give u the answer, u'll see that the your actual bridge is a piece of cake compare to the good one.

Try again, and dont rely on D2A
