I've shaded in the squares and I'm just seeing a grid with 1s and 0s! Have I made a mistake? No idea what to do from here...

I’m seeing the same thing! Trying to work out what it means. It looks like it’s part of a QR code itself maybe it somehow fits in to the big QR code

No - I would suggest that you photocopy the QR code and work with that

Thanks for the tip! Mmmmm I’ve got a photo of it. It’s part of the big QR code isn’t it? 😅

Day 24. Previous answers tell you what sqiares to shade in to complete the QR code and then see what you get - nearly there but not quite😀

I feared that it was another piece of the QR code 😅 and I supposed to find where it fits.

Interested in this thread?

Then you might like threads about these subjects:

You need to work out what the 1 and 0's mean and then put things in order, complete with shading

They aren’t coming up as anything on the binary translator mmmmmm

256 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 is more than you need

256 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 is more than you need

Thanks! I worked it out after staring at it for a while then realised 😅 but I can’t answer the question for 24 because of my hearing loss. I wish there was a written transcription of the message

Glynis57 · 23/12/2023 11:52

I’m still stuck on Day 24, have got the grid with binary numbers on but now stuck.

Emmadh · 23/12/2023 15:59

What is the answer for day 24 totally stuck with these bloody numbers

fourplusfour · 23/12/2023 23:02

Any more help for day 24 please? Getting really frustrated now.

Rainbow57 · 24/12/2023 08:45

Just convert the binary code to real numbers and then sort them in the grid. A PAT code will then be revealed

Pilscat · 24/12/2023 10:59

Day 24 - you should have grid references from your other answers. I would suggest you hotocopy the QR code then fill in the squares.

Fiona152318 · 24/12/2023 11:54

I have the numbers from the binary but
I don’t get how to sort them

Fiona152318 · 24/12/2023 11:55

Me too

RaelImperialAerosolKid · 25/12/2023 10:13

Merry Christmas to you all - have enjoyed doing the puzzles with you ! Same time next year?

You have to number each of the squares in the PAT grid from one to 16 then shade them the colour the corresponding colour of the binary number eg top left on PAT grid is square one so shade that black as binary number one's square is black etc. This will give you the numbers you need for PAT.

Judy2261 · 27/12/2023 20:49

Me too! Days after Christmas and I still can’t figure out Day 23 or Day 24.

Kewmaloo · 02/12/2024 08:02

I've figured the answer but can't get it to accept it
Any help would be appreciated. Xx

jillflirt · 05/12/2024 23:59

Day 5? I swear I solved it correctly, but my answer isn't being accepted.
But I also don't know how to ask for help without giving answers away!

jillflirt · 06/12/2024 00:13

Let's say.... Where book gets 23 on Eiffel Tower, I only get 22. All my other numbers are accurate. Can somebody explain the 23 to me?

jillflirt · 06/12/2024 00:20

Oh.found it.

OneOchreJoker · 09/12/2024 12:56

The math is wrong and they are using 44 ftom the rabbit instead of the correct 46.

OneOchreJoker · 09/12/2024 12:58

RaelImperialAerosolKid · 08/12/2023 11:11

@Sk63 count horse is 54 but rabbit is wrong!

Rabbit is 44

ThatRedHare · 11/12/2024 11:48

I am doing it as well, the QR codes work but I am not bright enough to crack the clues !!

Monkeypockets · 20/12/2025 16:41

I've just started this and am up to December 7th but its' very difficult
The numbers one - the first is 'pi' but the circled number refers to an incorrect number. The second one is the square root of 2 number and again, the circled number refers to an incorrect number. . so, looking at the third one which is the 'e' number (don't remember what it means but it is a special number) and compare it with googling the real number and the incorrect number in that sequence is the ?7th I think but might be a different one, if it is the 7th, then 7 is the answer.
