Obsessions Opened!
BLACK Opened
So I opened my BLACK obsession last night. I haven't been keeping track of my times, but there hasn't been a significant difference between the Blue, Green and Black. Generally I've figured out where I'm headed and then spend the rest of the time trying to get my fingers to cooperate. Does anyone know where the Black falls on the difficulty scale used for the metal versions? Unfortunately I am too late to get a Red, so this is the end of the road for me.

Re: BLACK Opened
The blue, green, black, and red are all fairly similar puzzles - in my personal opinion. The main difference between them concerns your level of dexterity.saber wrote:So I opened my BLACK obsession last night.

The puzzles take a new turn when you get to the Bronze. No longer do you have to merely figure out where you are headed and get your fingers to cooperate, but you have to think differently. The Silver adds to the Bronze and complicates matters by a further factor of four. It requires a lot more logical deduction and creative thinking to figure out what is going on and how to go forward.
Let us know if you have any other questions.

Re: Obsessions Opened!
in the january newsletter it was stated that the new obsessions would include a colored peg instead of a certificate. for those of us with the certificate versions, any chance we could get a peg for each of our puzzles?

I'll grab a load when they're done and send them out to anyone who wants one. I don't expect them to be ready for a couple of months yet thoughReVoRabbit wrote:in the january newsletter it was stated that the new obsessions would include a colored peg instead of a certificate. for those of us with the certificate versions, any chance we could get a peg for each of our puzzles?

Was thinking about getting a black obsession soon. Should I wait for the new design to come out?
