The Wonderland Board

Here's another level - not too hard, I don't think - lots of conveyors!

Oh what a great level!!!!!
This will be a wonderful one to figure out.
Loof got dizzy in the first part and I goofed in the second part so I had to take a break.

hi majic1
I love your levels.... not so many monsters ... more like a puzzle... I love doing them and you do a great job in making them... Keep up the good work!!

OH THANK YOU! We all need this kind of encouragement since it's SO hard to make a level & know if your own is alright or not.

HEY - ANOTHER Carolyn - isn't that 3 so far?? So far, it's proving to be a very good name, indeed!!!

Maybe we are all 3 clones

And how many MORE of you are REALLY out there???

Wow, 3 of us named Carolyn..that we know.

Welcome to the Wonderland Forum, newest Carolyn This is a wonderful place, everyone is very kind and helpful.

This is a fun level Majic...it is so large! Do you have a 30 inch Monitor? How many nites did you stay up to make this???

I am not using my boxes in the right places in the beginning where they are on the conveyors, I am always 1 short. A hint, please?

Do you mean the boulders when Loof is on the conveyor?

Majic,
Past the Kabooms walking around, thru the garden on the disappearing ground, the area with the 2 conveyors in the water, and boxes going around.

Am I the FIRST to ask, did I miss it, or is it SECRET CODE...what does

SAWASSUM stand for? Hum?

Carolyn

Stinky has to go on one path, Loof on the other. ONE of them has to stand on the conveyor button, on and off, to get the boxes lined up right. Does that help?? SAWASSUM - you are the FIRST to ask! It's a tribute to my little sister who died at 19. This (SAWASSUM) is on my license plate. I've discovered that the only people who ask what it means are people who are "comfortable" with themselves & don't care if they don't "really know it all" - like we all would like to think we do? (Well, I THINK I KNOW it all, get ooutttttaaaa my way!) I am one of those people who would probably not ask.............don't want ANYone to think I don't know what THAT word is!! Anyway, this word is definitely NOT in the dictionary! I'll try to make it short: There were 3 of us, my oldest sister, Carol, me, and our baby sister, Jennie - my parents took us horseback riding (my little sister was approx. 4 yrs. old) - on the way home, the 3 of us were sitting in the back seat of the car, and my older sister said, "Give me a kiss, "Jennie," - she responded, "SAWASSUM" - my mom said, "WHAT did she say??" So I said, "Give me a kiss Jennie" - Jennie said, "SAWASSUM !" NOONE has ever figured out what she was trying to say. We asked her a couple of years later & of course, she had no idea. It eventually became a "family" word. My mom had ALL kinds of theories of course, but the mystery was NEVER solved! My little sister, Jennie, died at the age of 19 of a heart attack - completely unbelievable STILL to me years later. But, we still tell each other "Sawassum" at the "appropriate" times!!! I'ved name my one and only daughter after her - ANYWAY, SAWASSUM (& my sister) lives ON!!!!!!!!!!! Hope I haven't bored you - and to TOP IT OFF, I PROBABLY DIDN'T GIVE YOU THE HINT YOU WERE ASKING FOR!!! Oh boy, and I thought this was a level that was tooooo easy!!

Majic,
I enjoyed reading your story! How nice that you have something she gave you that you use everyday to honor her memory. Such a tragic loss for you and your family.

The boxes:
the way I am looking at this, I need 2 to the East, 2 south and 1 on each side of the 2 coins spot. That is 6. The box on the west side can only be moved to access the conveyor on the west side of the water, so the count is 5 useable.
Tell me where my blind spot is!!!
Thanks.

Carolyn

Which part of the level are you referring to? (HELP - And I thought this level was easy - just goes to show, we're not very good judges of our own!) Probably will have to take a "snapshot" with arrows as Midnight Synergy does. Oh, for heaves sakes, I AM sorry - I THOUGHT I made a fun level!! DUH!!!

Well, now I NEED help - I'm trying to paste a picture here of the solution and I just keep getting thrown out. WHAT am I doing wrong??? Probably something so darn simple that I will feel NOT SO BRIGHT when SOMEone tells me what on earthh it iis I'm doing wrong!!!! Anyway, HEEEELLP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi majic1,

Your sister story touched my heart. That is a cool happy way to remember.......as for this level----I love it, it's so much fun BUT I also can't get enough boxes to get the coins on the part right down from the Kabooms. I think we get a solution in our head, then it doesn't work and we get blinded by another way of looking at it (I do that a lot)

Hi ol'gramma... aka carolyn...
Push the one box on the right path, up and onto the button then push it into the water, east.. You can then get all coins in the south... Push two of the boxes on the right converyor belt into the water at the north making a path to the left conveyor belt... Push the third box on the left conveyor belt to the top, north, getting the one coin... The 2 boxes on the left conveyor belt are now moved to the right belt, and used to make a path to the right, (east) wall getting those coins... Majic1 makes wonderful levels.... I enjoy them so much....

Thanks all of you for welcoming me!!... the new carolyn... carolyn number 3..

I would still like to paste a screenshot here to show the solution. I've seen a couple other people do this - please clue me in on how to do this!

[quote="majic1"]I would still like to paste a screenshot here to show the solution. I've seen a couple other people do this - please clue me in on how to do this![/quote]

What are you doing to try and do this? What happens?
Here is what I have done.
Get the screen to show what you want, using ALT-X if need be. Press F8 , there should now be a file called screenshot.bmp in the Return to Wonderland directoy.

Just make sure you rename or copy the files elsewhere before taking another screenshot as it gets overwritten.

Let me know if that doesn't help.

Jen

PS - I loove this level but I still haven't solved it either. I'm getting there.

Simply, here's the solution . . .
Box on L path down and onto green button and into water. From R conveyor, build bridge across to L conveyor directly below 2 top coins. Now you can move boxes between the two conveyors. You will end up with 2 boxes going east and 1 at south off of R conveyor. Hope this helps.

Jen:

I know how to take a screenshot, edit it with arrows, save it, etc., etc. My PROBLEM is posting the picture in this forum. I tried to paste it, that didn't work, tried to upload it, that didn't work - or maybe that's what I'm supposed to do & just messed up somehow. Anyway, I just need to know how to post my screenshot solution here!!! Can you tell me how to do that, or does someone else know? I've seen a couple of other people do that & would like to do the same!

THANKS!

Just test adding a file try to help....

Just deleted my test attachment so as to not take up more room.

majic1,

OK here is what I just did:
At the bottom of the post screen there is the Add an Attachment section. Click on browse and find your file. Double-Click on the file name and you'll be brought back to the posting screen and your filename will be listed. Now click the Add Attachment Button.

Than you need to wait until it is actually attached. You'll know this is complete because below the Add an Attachment section there will be a Posted Attachments section, where you can out in comments.

The first time I tried to attach something it was to big. The file size has to be less than 64K. If you are trying to do a .bmp file it is very hard to get those below 64k. I'd suggest saving it as either a .gif or .jpg if you have a photo editor that will allow that.

I hope that helps.

Jen

Yes, did all this - my ENTIRE problem was that my file was too darned big! 89K even saved as JPG - I'll have to see if I can get it to a smaller file size I guess!! (By the time I've got this figured out, everyone will have figured the level out on their own most likely!!).

Thanks for answering so quickly!

I have figured it out. I still haven't done it all together, I missed on part last time, but I think I got it now.

Jen

I did it finally! Great puzzles, very fun.

Jen

majic1, you are truly devious! I kept trying to solve this one and with the help of the above posts, finally got past the part with the boxes, only to run into the race with the conveyor belt! That wasn't hard, just needed fast fingers, . Truly it was a very enjoyable puzzle.

BTW. I really liked your explanation of SAWASSUM. That is such a nice way to remember. I didn't want to ask in case it would be intruding, though I did wonder and tried to figure it out, . Thank you for the explanation and the truly great levels!

I wish I could put a happy face in my signature - don't see that option there tho!

Hi Majic1,

This was one of the best levels you have made, brill stuff.

I didn't like to ask what the word meant either! I thought it was maybe an American word.
Your story is very sad and I'm sure everyone will agree with me, you have been brave and got on with life with all it's pitfalls; I'm sure that your sister would be very proud of you.
Always treasure your memories, nobody can take them away from you.

A big hug from all of us Wonderlanders.

Maureen.

Well, I HAVE had a couple people ask me if it was an Indian word or name! Of course, for all we know, maybe it IS! Or maybe it means something in another language. Wouldn't THAT be interesting!! Maybe it's a THING - wonder what a Sawassum looks like - AHA! An idea for another level!!!
