I have no idea; that's why I'm spending so much time on it ... I've got as far as discovering you can drag things out of the water by their hooks and attach them to the scales.

I dunno, I got it balanced, then the birds started up, then I realised I could shoo the birds by clicking on them ... and just when I thought it was perfect (did you realise you can empty the bucket by pointing at the tap?) It dropped another coathanger for me. I had to go out to get dinner at that point. Haven't dared try again yet...

Nope!The whole damned site is as bl**dy enigmatic as this.

If you can tell me how to sort out the park one I'd be delighted.(It's the circle on the left).It's a real head scratcher.Weird is the word for this site.

What do you do when you have all these things to hang up and not enough hooks to hang them on. Any why did the snowman melt?

Thanks for this - gonna keep me up all night getting very annoyed.

After the snowman I got a jellyfish thing that squealed every time it dipped into the water. odd!

It seems that to get the next item to drop, you have to balance the whole assembly long enough for the scale pointer to make a complete circuit of its dial and then go 'ker-ching'. If your set-up fails, the dial shows wavy blue and red stripes, and will not revert to the pointer until you make a significant change to the way you have things arranged. By significant change, I mean take something off and put it back, or swap it with something else, or empty/fill the bucket (although I think the damned birds flying about might be able to trigger the scales as well).

The water bucket is the key to this because you can empty and re-fill it to try to adjust things. The birds are a bit of a red herring because I've found it's possible to balance the whole lot fairly quickly by making adjustments to the bucket in between the birds' flying around.

Wow finally got there last night having worked out that once the snowman melts the hat which you do not have a spare hook for goes on ...... :nono: (that would be telling).

Suffice to say that yes the bucket filling and emptying is a major clue, and dont be afraid to drop and rearrange all the hangers, and what's on them. The final thing of the head is a real pain in the backside cos it's sooo heavy it throws everything out. You do get a nice round of applause at the end though :smokin:

Happy to Help (hinder!) :naughty:
