Just keep refreshing it, until you get an easy one to do, that it what I did!!

actually reloading gets me to log in again

are you sure we are talking about the Eurostar one?

by refresh I think dolphinl means hit restart. I think the puzzle is corrupt tbh. So many people have had problems with it having two pieces in the wrong place and it being un solveable (i spent hrs on some). When i was getting to the end of my tether I did some research and even found some people had run it through a puzzle solver which then reported it was unsolveable.

Basically hit restart a few times and give it a go - if you keep getting 2 pieces repeatedly out of sync when you think they shouldnt be then restart and try again. Eventually I got a puzzle which was solveable in a fairly quick time like you'd expect!!

Apparently the bods at Eurostar DaVinci that were put in charge of running and promoting this comp have and have had all the answers all along. That would be fine if they were an honest bunch but apparently they are not,

I have been told by a friend who works at waterloo station that some of the staff got hold of some of the answers through work and they are also doing the competition even though they are not allowed to win.

Hopefully Eurostar will realise this but I imagine they could just enter as some relation or friend and manage to claim the prizes.

I have tried to get some help myself for this final Cryptex but I have been jogged on, surprise surprise. I will be well Pi55ed off if this turns out to be true but I guess we’ll have to wait and see who actually wins from the UK.
