    I'm not a puzzle collector or designer, but I find these videos extremely entertaining. Keep up the good work!

    Great addition of calling it a "spoiler break" so people stop asking why there's a splash screen in the middle of the video! Awesome puzzles, thanks for doing what you do!

    • @FLEBpuzzles
      @FLEBpuzzles  Před 7 lety +30

      That was a suggestion from the comments on the last video. I actually got a lot of really helpful comments!
      Thanks!

      But the spoiler break clip is so entertaining, those who don't want to see the solution will still end up seeing it because they'll be watching the spoiler break to the end. :D

      You'd almost be craving for a full-hour repitition video of the spoiler break alone, right? ;-)

      I wasn't sure what a spoiler break was. I figured it was part of your introduction to the show. Might want to actually post a sign, not just curious squiggles.

    Hello Fleb. Glad your subs are being grown exponentially. Keep it up. I say your vids on 9gag so you are in good shape.
    Sugestion: 1 - make some kind of raffle/draw on some of your puzzles.
    Suggestion 2: - Do a Q&A session. (If you do, mines are: Are "Puzzler" is a full time job?, How many puzzles did you made)
    Suggestion 3 - check out Patreon.A lot of CZcamsrs are doing it, so it might help you out with Raffles/Draws etc.
    Keep it up. Good luck.

      @FLEBpuzzles  Před 7 lety +2

      There's logic to it! There's always some amount of experimentation with solving a puzzle, but once you have the idea of what might be going on in the internals, there aren't that many possible mechanisms.
      Glad you enjoy the videos!

      @get-the-lead-out.4593 Před 6 lety

      yeah because we can't find this 'parking meter' puzzle anywhere, and this type of puzzle are the ones we try to find. Well, the only one we did find was on www.mrpuzzle.com.au/gold-coast-parking-meter-puzzle.html but was out of stock and even if it was in stock, it cost 66.00 US dollars plus whatever shipping costs would be from there to the United States. You really got to have nothing more important to spend some 80.00 on (purchase + shipping price) !

    • @thereddrob
      @thereddrob Před 2 lety +1

      I have the same puzzle, it is not supposed to come out, it is just meant to slide up and down like you would operate a parking meter. The coin isn't a "prize" for solving the puzzle, it's just part of the mechanism--you need to have the meter reassembled with the coin inside in order to "operate" the meter

    @Fleb how do you get the coin back up is my question

    • @FLEBpuzzles
      @FLEBpuzzles  Před 7 lety +2

      That's actually a good question! It turns out that putting it back together is much easier than taking it apart, mostly because the "buttons" that you have slide pieces past are already pressed.
      Using the same techniques of pressing the "buttons" and using some pieces to slide others, you can essentially reverse the steps!
