    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I won, I won, I won!
    :wall:Sorry to bump!

    I am probably making this more difficult than i need to, using the info from the book codex i have managed to sort the text into a useable square.

    I think i am missing a key point though as the word from missing letters makes no sense but I can't seem to make another word from the letters (can you use the missing letters more than once?).

    I need to work out the image but all i can think of is to put the data into excel then colour the squares according to the letters.

    Is there another way or is my blonde hair blocking my brain cells?

    Thanks B!
    :beer: Thanks to ALL posters :beer:

    I think I have an answer to the first part (it may not be the right one however), but I am stumped as to what to even begin to do next! Any advice?

    I have read through the previous posts and there are ones that talk about shading in letters with different colours...is that the next stage after getting the first answer? Seems quite complex! I really don't want to be given the answer, as I hate being defeated, but still feel I need a bit more of a clue as to where to go next. Thanks.

    Anyone actually solved this yet..

    part 1 was easy + the missing letter

    Part 2 has me stumped but it must have something to do with the hidden image in the grid ;)

    Well, MSE.com stopped informing me that new posts had been added so I've been strangely absent. I'm giving no clues but to those who are working their way through it, very very well done!!!

    I truly hope that one of you is the lucky recipient. Let me tell you that we have some correct entries in, but the odds are still VERY GOOD!!!

    Some of you are so close, based on the posts, that you can almost touch it, others have touched on it. Just be careful with the letters you need to solve part one. There aren't many letters, there is only one of each letter, they only get used once each AND they are a clue to part two...

    Best of luck - it's great to see the chat going on and PMs are welcome (but they won't result in unfair advantages!!).
