I really like this puzzle. The colors are fantastic. If I find a puzzle for you, I’ll deliver it to you personally. I will keep a eye out for something cool.
I would really like to see the Nervous System Infinity Puzzle. It looks stunning and is most likely extremely difficult because it doesn't have any border
May be it would be helpful to start more systematic (as I see it in many other Clips from you). May be to count the notches and holes per rounding. ..So we know the amount of holes e.g. In the inner Ring. Then try to find seldom combinations and in best case to find one wich is sure correct. ..
Mr. Puzzle: A thought experiment, just for fun: 1. The gaps between the puzzle pieces seem to only exist in one of FIVE positions 2. Draw five concentric circles such that each passes through one of the five positions 3. You will now have a musical staff, and the gaps between pieces will be “notes” on this staff 4. Play the resulting melody. It may sound strange because there will never be fewer than 3 semitones between adjacent “notes”. However, you may find a pattern. Have fun!
@@andreasriegler2140 thats exactly what i'm getting at (but tbh. people always say that bu just try it its not hard to make something sound bad in pentatonic)
Mr. Puzzles I just love watching your videos. It's such a treat when you put out one of your videos. I can't wait to see what you put out next. Keep up the awesome work man
I love the concept of this puzzle 🧩 I don’t really like the old fashioned picture puzzles,but this is fresh and new and I would buy one no problem. It’s so hilarious to see when you solved this puzzle. Younger really excited and it’s fun to watch. Thanks for showing me/us all (your fan’s lol) another great puzzle. Keep in puzzling lol!
This is actually really cool how the pieces are kind of seemingly procedurally made. Like there are 5 slots on each side of a piece, and each of those 5 slots can contain either a prong or a gap, which is either big or small. AND THEN, each time you connect two pieces together, one of those 5 slots will have a gap touching a gap. Would be super cool to see some maths done to this!!!
It's interesting seeing the end result have 2 pairs, 1 individual color, a pair, then 3 individual colors, then repeating until it happens three times(but not the same colors in each repeating pattern.)
.... the next time this will get pretty easy to solve, as the pieces have some kind of Pattern, So the dark blue ones are always in pair and doing a third of an rotation, the red once are always singel and doing a sixth of an rotation The pink pairs face a singel pink one, and the only one out of "order" is the singel light blue one which does not make a quarter turn like the other light blue once
Five and a half minutes in, and I think my approach would be to first find pieces that only had one possible fit, and call those 'solved'. Once I had all those 'one and only one' pieces linked up, I'd go about testing the combinations. Really it would just serve as a way to reduce the total number of pieces, making the brute force take less time. I think I might even scotch tape the the 'one and onlys' together to keep track of them for when I had to move things around. I'm not much of a puzzler, so that's the best method I can come up with.
That one should be approach first like a jigsaw. I am sure what I will say next might be of some interest in that way. Over 55 years practicing jgsaw might lead to some insight here. Jigsaw approach to begin with : 1st look at a regularity from the pieces (bottom or top view have sometimes cutting peculiarities) to avoid turning from side to the other if it doesn't work; 2nd make all your pieces in direct view (2 arks would probably be good), not stacked, because speed is useful in this challenge and eyes are faster than hands in this kind of manipulation; try a basic classification of the pieces using 1 or 2 clues from the design of the pieces (like larger end all directed the same way and placement of 2 notches weel choosen, same for all pieces) and that classification will be related to the way you build your jigsaw... then start building. I did jigsaw since 8 y.o., 55 years ago, solve a lot of them up to 4000 pieces, have a 32000 (32k) pieces waiting for my retirement, did some with pieces only with straight edges, with only wavy edges, printed on both sides with the same picture( at the same angle or one rotated 90°) or different pictures, with 1 to 10 double pieces by design, from all kind of picture, size, material, 2D and 3D, no straight border, round, oval, insect shaped, made from myriad of small pictures... I even forced myself to look at the printed dots instead of the colors or the picture in its whole as a personal challenge on one 500 pieces. I even discover repetition of cutting pattern on many jigsaw and in all 4000 pieces. Being too tired, matching dot density from each color was a good idea. May be, that listing could give an idea to someone about what to look for. By the way,, I did also solve a lot of puzzles but this is not relevant here.
The only change I would've made to your solving would be to only concentrate on parts that stick out. If that makes sense. Since those were the only bits that needed a spot
This puzzle is soo cool! I've never seen a jigsaw like this before, very cool. Also would like to point out how awesome it looks at the end, to me a psychedelic spinning record 💿😁💗 P.s. I just noticed there is no vinyl record emoji on here! The evolution of recording: 📼 video tape 💾 floppy disk 💽 cd-roms (Where's the vinyl?!) Sorry I just had to make a point somewhere lol MR. PUZZLE ROCKS!! 🤘
Did I miss the episode were you was working on that metal sphere and was supposed to come back and try it later? Your episodes are so fun and addictive
I’m very glad you did this, no way would i have had the patience - or I’d have had to write code to solve it. I’m sure it would be possible to devise a much more difficult version of this combinatorial puzzle that would be truly infernal, lots of plausible sub-trees that ultimately fail. Do you know how many solutions this puzzle has?
Pick one piece, go through the others and sort them strictly by shape, find a connection and acknowledge all other fitting pieces, go through this process until you get the full ring.
interesting puzzle. i think i'd have used a network diagram and a connection alogithm. label each peace and each side of the piece. likeb for blue, b1L b1R, b2L b2R, ... then then create a network diagram of which piece are capable of being connected together. then the sollution is found by finding a complete tree between all the nodes.
Hi, Mr Puzzle!! Have you ever tried a 3D puzzle?? They’re pretty challenging! I did one of a dog and it took me days to complete because I kept getting frustrated!! Can you try some of those?? ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ein puzzle nach meine m Geschmack. Was auffällig ist das die sechs roten Steine symetrisch verlaufen. Jeder fünfte Stein ist rot. Eine Frage : Die Konstellation der Steine, so wie in deiner Auflösung, ist das die einzige oder sind andere Lösungen in der Reihenfolge möglich ? Ansonst wie immer Daumen hoch.
I would have gone about that differently. I would have enumerated the pieces, documented the how they connect, and then have a computer find a path to connect all of the points. I don't have time to brute force a solution like that. This way, if there happens to be more then one solution, I could find all of them.
Before watching, thinking on the fly...my approach would be to label each piece x1, x2, ....x30. But there are two variants depend which way up so you have x1_U, x2_U, ....x30_U, x1_D, x2_D, ....x30_D (60 total). Arrange the 30 in a circle any order in the UP variant. For each piece check if it fits the others (all UP) in both its UP and DOWN variant make a note of fitting pieces in clockwise order like so: x1_U → x2_U. After each piece put it back down where it was in the UP position. Whenever you write a join write it's flipped version e.g x1_U → x2_U also has x1_D → x2_D. Also chain these in a tree like pattern and work your way through these so if x1_U → x2_U choose x2 next. Done dumbly that would be 3600 checks - 1 per second = 60 minutes. Once you have a chain of 30 that loops and contains x1, x2, ....x30 your done.
brute force doesn't seem like a great way to do this puzzle. (30P28)*(2^28) is a pretty redic amount of solutions. (~3e40 combinations) this is obviously reduced by a lot that won't fit together at all, but even if every piece has 5-6 matching pieces, that's still .... 131 million combos. i have to assume that once you start with the initial pieces on the hint, that most of the rest of the pieces have only 1 or 2 (maybe 3-4) other pieces that will fit. this would bring the total number of combos to just under 6000.
His text in the video is his own opinion of how difficult he personally thinks the puzzle should be rated in comparison to other puzzles of similar make/style.
I initially thought that all the pieces of the same color have the same shape. I would have definitely liked the puzzle better, if that were the case. Or make all the pieces the same color. But this way, it just looks ugly and doesn't have a function.

'Nosey Puzzle' is another great puzzle by Alexander Holroyd. One of my top favorites actually, highly recommended!
I would really like to see the Nervous System Infinity Puzzle. It looks stunning and is most likely extremely difficult because it doesn't have any border
I wonder what would be your rating for this puzzle? Or it's a puzzle for us to find out :D
May be it would be helpful to start more systematic (as I see it in many other Clips from you). May be to count the notches and holes per rounding. ..So we know the amount of holes e.g. In the inner Ring. Then try to find seldom combinations and in best case to find one wich is sure correct. ..
My biggest question: do the holes in the ring mean anything? Like a music sheet or something
Bro, explain to me how I had that exact thought. Looking like a vinyl or something 🤣
Mr. Puzzle: A thought experiment, just for fun:
1. The gaps between the puzzle pieces seem to only exist in one of FIVE positions
2. Draw five concentric circles such that each passes through one of the five positions
3. You will now have a musical staff, and the gaps between pieces will be “notes” on this staff
4. Play the resulting melody. It may sound strange because there will never be fewer than 3 semitones between adjacent “notes”. However, you may find a pattern.
Have fun!

😬🤒
instead of putting it on all of the lines it would probably sound nicer to put it on a pentatonic scale.

Interesting, that the red and the blue pieces each are in symmetric locations.
Interesting nickname
@matts2289 , 2 across from 1 isn't symmetric (and they aren't all directly across).
@@SgtSupaman The red and blue piece are each indepently of the other color pieces symmetrical.
@@YellowBunny , I wasn't talking about the red and blue pieces. I was replying to the person that said all the other colors were also symmetrical.
SgtSupaman they are symmetrical in a different orientation. Thin thin on top. Thick thick on bottom

Great news! I've figured out a method for easily determining which pieces comprise the inner and outer edges of the ring. :P

Die Lache füllt mich einfach mit Freude
that woohoo when he solved it is exactly why i subscribed
For sure would love to see more "community" puzzles!
Would love to see a video with the puzzles you received from others!
I think solving puzzles is very helpful. It makes your mind creative and makes you think (search for solutions) outside the box.
Absolutely!
Look at how the colors work!
It’s been too long since I watched you, I’m happy to be back
This seems to be one puzzle that you can see the solution and still have no idea how to solve it
You've become a lot more enthusiastic over time. I actually used to watch your early videos for asmr haha
It's interesting seeing the end result have 2 pairs, 1 individual color, a pair, then 3 individual colors, then repeating until it happens three times(but not the same colors in each repeating pattern.)
I find a jigsaw puzzle with intentional gaps to be less than satisfying. It has an unfinished feel. Keep puzzling!
I understand but disagree. It gives them a stronger challenge. The idea isn't too make a flat plane but make all the pieces interlock.
I loved hearing your excitement for completing this puzzle, great job!
.... the next time this will get pretty easy to solve, as the pieces have some kind of Pattern,
So the dark blue ones are always in pair and doing a third of an rotation,
the red once are always singel and doing a sixth of an rotation
The pink pairs face a singel pink one,
and the only one out of "order" is the singel light blue one which does not make a quarter turn like the other light blue once
Love your videos brother keep up the good work
Thanks! Enjoy!

If you think about it, this might even get you all the way to a completed puzzle.
Is there maybe a second puzzle with the empty spots being 1's or 0's, and there being a code in binary?

That was a great puzzle
Look at the big nooks, the gaps are the small holes.
Pick one piece, go through the others and sort them strictly by shape, find a connection and acknowledge all other fitting pieces, go through this process until you get the full ring.

Is there just one solution?
Hi, Mr Puzzle!! Have you ever tried a 3D puzzle?? They’re pretty challenging! I did one of a dog and it took me days to complete because I kept getting frustrated!! Can you try some of those?? ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Eine Frage : Die Konstellation der Steine, so wie in deiner Auflösung, ist das die einzige oder sind andere Lösungen in der Reihenfolge möglich ? Ansonst wie immer Daumen hoch.
Kann ich leider nicht sagen. Ich habe keine andere Lösung geshen bisher. Leider ist über das Puzzle sehr wenig zu finden im Internet.
another clue is non of the gaps line up with the gap either side of the piece.
your hands are so cute
The green piece that you said no too you could have just flipped it over just like many many other pieces
I Am a puzzle?? Achievement of life lol 😂😂😂
Cooking with Mr Ribs 😀 they were definitely a 3 out of 5 on the rib-master scale of ribby-ness. 🙄😆😆😆😆
🤣
I liked it.
Very awesome.
You are BRILLIANT 😸
I'm pretty sure all the colors are made to fit two by two, i.e two of each color.
You still did it, but it took you longer...
may be the key is there are 8 pieces between purple pieces
I don’t really like the colour combination.
Ioana Maria agreed. Design flaw for sure
Your big mistake was on 6:02
On each piece only one position has a cut-in on both sides, and that matches the colour of the piece.
Show us the loot!
I think there is more than one way to put this together?
Now the puzzle is how to put it in a music box so you can play the music

I would have gone about that differently. I would have enumerated the pieces, documented the how they connect, and then have a computer find a path to connect all of the points. I don't have time to brute force a solution like that. This way, if there happens to be more then one solution, I could find all of them.
Before watching, thinking on the fly...my approach would be to label each piece x1, x2, ....x30. But there are two variants depend which way up so you have x1_U, x2_U, ....x30_U, x1_D, x2_D, ....x30_D (60 total). Arrange the 30 in a circle any order in the UP variant. For each piece check if it fits the others (all UP) in both its UP and DOWN variant make a note of fitting pieces in clockwise order like so: x1_U → x2_U. After each piece put it back down where it was in the UP position. Whenever you write a join write it's flipped version e.g x1_U → x2_U also has x1_D → x2_D. Also chain these in a tree like pattern and work your way through these so if x1_U → x2_U choose x2 next. Done dumbly that would be 3600 checks - 1 per second = 60 minutes. Once you have a chain of 30 that loops and contains x1, x2, ....x30 your done.
brute force doesn't seem like a great way to do this puzzle. (30P28)*(2^28) is a pretty redic amount of solutions. (~3e40 combinations) this is obviously reduced by a lot that won't fit together at all, but even if every piece has 5-6 matching pieces, that's still .... 131 million combos.
i have to assume that once you start with the initial pieces on the hint, that most of the rest of the pieces have only 1 or 2 (maybe 3-4) other pieces that will fit. this would bring the total number of combos to just under 6000.
I think another pattern to note is that the holes are going in a zig zag manner
Not a favourite dad, but was entertaining all the same..

How come it's difficulty 9/10 on the puzzle card, but 3/5 on your text?
His text in the video is his own opinion of how difficult he personally thinks the puzzle should be rated in comparison to other puzzles of similar make/style.
@@NEMesis1413 Ah! Brill! Thanks!
What a biological way to solve a puzzle 💕🤣
It’s not a puzzle if all you do is brute force

Thanks god, He didn't do a presentation of the puzzle pieces with some pop music and cringe angles to show few plastic chunks

I initially thought that all the pieces of the same color have the same shape. I would have definitely liked the puzzle better, if that were the case. Or make all the pieces the same color. But this way, it just looks ugly and doesn't have a function.

A puzzle that is annoying and fun at the same time
Trivial concept, terrible choice of colors.
More like difficulty of 1/10.
Anyone that wants to finish the puzzle will finish it basically by plugging away.

Before watching, thinking on the fly...my approach would be to label each piece x1, x2, ....x30. But there are two variants depend which way up so you have x1_U, x2_U, ....x30_U, x1_D, x2_D, ....x30_D (60 total). Arrange the 30 in a circle any order in the UP variant. For each piece check if it fits the others (all UP) in both its UP and DOWN variant make a note of fitting pieces in clockwise order like so: x1_U → x2_U. After each piece put it back down where it was in the UP position. Whenever you write a join write it's flipped version e.g x1_U → x2_U also has x1_D → x2_D. Also chain these in a tree like pattern and work your way through these so if x1_U → x2_U choose x2 next. Done dumbly that would be 3600 checks - 1 per second = 60 minutes. Once you have a chain of 30 that loops and contains x1, x2, ....x30 your done.
