| Mar 29, 2015 at 9:14 | comment | added | user88 | Pretty much. But I know of at least three people who did actually solve it by logic. | |
| Mar 29, 2015 at 8:41 | comment | added | leoll2 | "a brute-forcer was the first person to actually reach the next level of the puzzle" You mean that he tried all the numbers between 0 and 9999 until he found the answer? | |

| Mar 29, 2015 at 4:34 | comment | added | user88 | When I first created this puzzle, it was honestly intended as an easy puzzle to finish off the section. I had no idea it would give people such a hard time when I first made it. | |

| Mar 28, 2015 at 18:58 | comment | added | user10737 | Just a really crazy guess, but is it 1845? | |
| Mar 28, 2015 at 18:26 | comment | added | user88 | However, Google may be of use, as many of the problems in the Temple were intended to involve a little bit of research. | |
| Mar 28, 2015 at 18:05 | comment | added | user88 | There are no dates or statistics in the puzzle, nor are any of them involved in the solution. | |
| Mar 28, 2015 at 9:09 | comment | added | Alconja | Not digging for too much of a hint, but can you do this without cultural/historical/etc knowledge? I'm not much good with dates and statistics, but if it's mostly logic and lateral thinking I'll keep mulling it over... | |
| Mar 28, 2015 at 1:27 | comment | added | user88 | Yes, it is. Very obvious. Otherwise the puzzle wouldn't be so much evil as it would be unclear and unfair. | |
| Mar 28, 2015 at 1:23 | comment | added | Rand al'Thor | So many ideas...so many things to try... Is the solution obvious when you see it? | |
