I'm absolutely not good at codebreakers. 
But it's kinda like the time tunnel right..?

Okay coppied and pasted from myoriginal post onthe locked post.
My technique for solving.
Change all the symbols to the same of once character.
Find out how many greens. Change all but that number to the blanks and then continue until all the characters are in the right place.
Than change all remaining to the next character.
Then do the same.
See how many greens, Change all but the number of new greens to blank til its in the right place.
Repeat til you're finished.
It usually works out.
Think puffikins (sp?) figured it out in 10 minutes using it or it was gooly can't rememebr and so much trouble looking back right now.
Don't know why I'm back here checking posts considering I have 3 assignment to complete and work tomorrow.

I'm not bad at Time Tunnel, but this one, I had to start taking notes for step 3 to get through it; my memory's just not that good with 6 different slots. But I made it through!

OMG, I stink at this. I tried so many times last night without getting it that I was up to 15 levels. UGH! Going to try again today. Maybe my brain will be fresh as I'm working from home today.
Wish me luck, I'll need it.

Urgh.. codebreakers is a game I've never been at all good at.
But... I completed it! I used Alchemist's method and got it done in a matter of minutes! Thanks for the tips  I thought I'd be struggling over this pest of a puzzle for aaaages, but I didn't even get any resets on the second or third level!
"A gleam of metal on the floor catches your eye, and you quickly pocket the object." I want a something! I wonder what it is..
P.S Instead of starting a new topic for a little question, I'll ask my fellow plotters (hehe)... is anyone else having trouble using the links along the top toolbar on the Neopets site? You know, the Neopets home logo link, the "Welcome [username]", link to your inventory and the logout one? I can't click on them at all, though I can tab to them... just wanna check and see if it's a problem on my side or not...

Everybody seems to be doing good at this puzzle but I'm stuck on level 2 of the puzzle and I'm also terrible on the game time tunnel. I might give up trying to solve it.

I'm trying Alchemist's method and it takes too many turns in the end. This is a dumb puzzle that is stupid. Did I mention it was dumb?

'Twas me that said that. ^^ And between 10-15 for the last two. The last one was the easiest, truthfully.

My method is to do one symbol at a time. If you get a green then you leave it. If you get a yellow then you know that symbol is in the list somewhere you just have it in the wrong possie. So I try another and another until it comes up green. The same symbol several times is what confused me at first.

My methodology:
- On the first turn, switch each row to a different symbol, see how many yellows you have, keep switching (trying as many as possible) until you have some (bearing in mind that if there's more than one of the same symbol, you'll still only get one yellow marker), then go row by row once you know the symbols, straighting them into the right order. Basically, I try to figure out which symbols are in the code, then worry about their order.
This way takes some intuition and some luck to get through it quickly. I'm sorry I can't explain it better, but here are some Codebreakers and Time Tunnel guides to help you guys along (just translate colors to symbols):

I really liked it, too, both puzzles were pretty neat so far. Took me about 15 minutes for the whole thing, but I think I got lucky!
Can't wait for more!

Know what would be an awesome prize TNT? Petpetpet eggs! We could buy a little clutch of 'em with our points, and then when our pets play with them they could crack open and out pops a random petpetpet! Yeaaah! Do it! You know you wanna!
(I loves the idea of the petpetpet eggs )

So now we have to fight a giant moach in battledome. I am a battledome novice and would appreciate any ideas on what to equip myself with.

I have a pet with 29 HP. I don't think I can win a fight with the Monstrous Roach. Oh my, I guess I'm gonna miss this part of the plot.

I just got my butt handed to me. Probably could have won if he didn't have a blue scorchstone.

Well, I won 5 times but don't think I'll chance it again. It was WAY too close that last time. I'm out until the next part.

uh this stupid moach is a pain. If my lab pet didn't have so many hit points I'd be totally out of the running by now. I'm guessing if they do anotehr battle dome thing I'll be out of the fighting by then. Makes me wish slightly(well probably not really) that I autually liked battle doming stuff.
