I’m stuck on the puzzle with the elementary cellular automata. I watched the video and tried the pattern it mentioned along with many others, but I’m not sure what I’m supposed to accomplish. Any hints?

We're stuck where you were. Is there a hint you can give us to get us going?

Sigh... NEVERMIND - got that one figured out. It's been fun everyone.

Hi fellow solvers! I've been working my way through puzzle 42, and I think I've gotten pretty far, but now I'm stumped on the facade puzzle. I've already flipped the image and considered whether the flipping meant the numbers that replace the names are mirrored, but I can't find any significance in the numbers anyplace in the book or the broader internet. I really didn't want to reach out for help on this one, but I'm pretty sure I'm truly stumped here.
Help a puzzler out?

We know "timing is key" for the button/lever puzzle but how do we know what the correct pattern is? We've tried making them all fast and making them all slow and neither worked.

The facade puzzle is giving me gibberish. I've tried every combination of indexing and ordering I can think of. Any help please?

Please help with the mindless workers part. I've tried making the numbers all go fast, or all go slow. HELP!

So you're on the right track, the letter-sounds DO combine to make a word
It's not an obvious word . Consider how much easier the puzzle would be if all the characters spoke a "common language" . . .

Hi, I am having a very hard time with this puzzle. I know the red circle directs you to the first training theorem. I know the answer to that theorem. Ive tried everything related to breathing, knowing, rooting (things you do at birth). I even entered the answer in numbers rather than letters. Mind helping me get over the hump on this. ?? Thanks

That puzzle is called "The very first thing." So, through your journey in The Master Theorem's puzzles, what was the very first thing?

For the notepad puzzle, Ive tried:
numbers, red numbers, breathing, very first theorem, training theorem, nothing, knowthing, survival etc...
I know it has to do with the first training theorem, and its answer is "excellent", but it looks like the numbers are what was in the circle, not "excellent".
Can someone please give me a solid nudge on this so i can progress?

I got EXCELLENT from the first puzzle. No, there is nothing inside the red circle. I’ve tried “nothing”, “breathing” etc…. Even tried answers using numbers instead of letters… what am I missing?? Please help!
On April 21, 2022 at 8:04AM EST CanadiAnon responded to ILLUMINATINPS:
You're overthinking it. What is the answer you got from the notepad the first time you did it? Was that answer located inside this new red circle?

Thanks so much! I’ve been stuck on that one for months. Would not have solved without those tips.

Hello, I don’t know if you have managed to figure it out by now, but if not I’m happy to give you a hand. Here are three hints, top gives away the least bottom gives away the most.
Every button you pushed changes the output from 1-0 or 0-1
Timing is very important
When numbers appear on the screen some appear fast and some go slow, maybe play around with that.

I only recently realized I missed the 42nd puzzle and I'm now stuck on this part. Does anyone have a hint for this "pattern" for the button puzzle?

Happy Old Year!
In 42 I’ve been stuck for months on the ones and zeroes terminal.
Any starter tips to spot the pattern? I’ve tried quite a few! :)
