Folks I may be providing some with a laugh here but I can't sem to solve one of the Ancient computer terminal puzzles even though I have gone thru it all in my head and it SHOULD work. It's the terminal where you have to (using +,-,*, & /) enter information to bring the total to 13 (i.e. (6_2)_8_9_1=13. Now I used the following:

 

(6*2)-8+9/1=13

 

Imagine my surprise when the console blew up in my face.

 

Glitch or not? Cos I've tried going thru all other possibilities to come to 13 without much success and I'm assuming here that you can only use each one once.

 

 

*silently thinking to self* I bet I'm missing some big piece of picture here...lol

 

edit: hmmmmm, tried it again and low-and-behold it worked....i could have possibly entered it in incorrect....lol...anyway all is good

This is a well known bug, and I could have sworn Ive seen this subject a few days ago. The problem with this bug is that there are 2 solutions to the calculation [use / or * for the last blank]

Also to use the Search on the board. Since this game has been out for a while, it would be a good guess that this question or something similiar has been asked before.
