the second one where you put the beacon on the asteroid.
first, i didn't realize you could jump onto the asteroid
then i thought you had to stasis the blue spinning things and that would slow down the things on the asteroid that sweep the surface, long enough for you to plant the beacon. that didn't work and i kept dying when i would plant the beacon on it, inside of the ship, because he takes forever to do it and i kept getting splattered (which i now realize is an artificial contrivance that only exists to force you to go outside)
then i realized you can actually walk through the force field on the asteroid to go outside
then i fucking FINALLY realized you're supposed to shoot the tethers while they're stasis'd

I forget how to do the last bit but the fact that Letters knows that Numbers doesn't know the letter for the pad means it can't be 5 or 6 (i.e. because Letters is C or D and if he were A or B it could be 5 or 6, which only corresponds to A or B so Numbers would know the correct pad) that means you're left with C1,3 and D1,2,4. The fact that this prompts Numbers to say he knows the pad now means that the number can't be 1 because then the pad could be C or D (which would mean Numbers wouldn't know which pad because he has multiple choices), that leaves C3 & D2,4. Now I'm pretty sure it's C3 but I forget the actual logic to get past the last step.

The answer should be D4.
Alb knows Bern doesn't know, this excludes tracks 5 & 6. Despite knowing that, Alb couldn't deduce which pad was right, so it's not B4 which would have stood apart as the only possible outcome if the right track was B, exclude the track B.
From that Bern deduced from knowing the track number where was the pad, the only numbered track with only a single pad left is 4, hence D4.

The answer is C3:
1. Albert knows that Bernard does not know. This means that the letter he know cannot be A or B, as then there would be the possibility that Bernard does know (if Bernard had number 5 or 6, he would know the pad even without knowing the letter). Thus, tracks A and B can be excluded
2. Bernard says that he now does know, meaning that after the exclusion of A and B, his track leads to only one pad. Thus, we can exclude track 1, as then there would still be two pads for him to decide between. As such, we know the pad is either D2, C3, or D4.
3. Albert says he now knows too. This means we can exclude track D, as if he indeed had the letter D, he would not be able to tell which of the pads is the correct one. With C, however, he no longer needs to make such a decision, and knows that it must be C3, as there are no other pads left on C. As such, the correct pad must be C3.

Bernard doesn't know, meaning it can't be 6-A, but since Albert only knows the letter you can say it's not in the A track.
Bernard then knows it based on number alone, so it's either 2,3 or 5. But since Albert also knows you know it's B-5 I hope. The only logic choice is to pull any lever that's not B-5 and crash the trolleys with no survivors.

Anons are bad at explaining it, and it involves iteration. I believe it goes like so:

>the number needs to be something
>what if it's 5 or 6?
>in that case, Bernard would know exactly which pad is used, either A6 or B5
<but he didn't know what it was immediately, so rails numbered rails 5 and 6 can't be it, because if the number was 5 or 6, then he would have known immediately because each rail only has one possible pad

1.] Albert knows the correct letter, but not the correct pad. This is logical, as each letter has more than one possible pad, so the correct pad cannot be deduced from letter alone.
2.] Bernard knows the correct number, but not the correct pad. If the number were 5, he would know that the correct pad is B5, as that is the only pad with that number. If the number were 6, he would know that the correct pad is A6, as that is the only pad with that number. Therefore, the number is NOT 5 OR 6, otherwise Bernard would know the answer from the start.
3.] Albert knows that Bernard doesn't know the correct pad. If the letter were A, it would be possible for Bernard to know the correct pad to begin with if the number happened to be 6. If the letter were B, it would be possible for Bernard to know the correct pad to begin with if the number happened to be 5. The only way Albert can be certain that Bernard doesn't know the correct pad is if neither A6 nor B5 (the only pads discernible by number alone) are possible options. The only way he can know that it is neither of those options (based only on his knowledge of the letter) is if the letter is NOT A OR B.
4.] Bernard hears Albert's first dialogue, and figures out point #3 above. He still knows the correct number, and he now knows that the letter is NOT A OR B. This is enough for him to discern the correct pad. If the number were 1, he would be unable to discern the correct pad, as both C1 and D1 would be possible answers. Therefore, the number is NOT 1.
5.] Albert hears Bernard's reply and figures out point #4 above. He still knows the correct letter, and he now knows that the number is NOT 1. This is enough for him to discern the correct pad. If the letter were D, he would be unable to discern the pad, as D2 and D4 would both be possible answers. Therefore, the letter is NOT D.
6.] The number is NOT 5, 6, OR 1. The letter is NOT A, B, OR D. The only possible answer remaining is C3.

Well, anon, let me rephrase the dilemma in a different way. Imagine you are standing on top of a wall. There is a gate beneath you. You see a group of five people rushing towards the gate as fast as they can, a massive and extremely pissed off bear right on their heels. You can see that it'll be really close, but they won't be able to make it and the bear will tear them apart. There is a person standing next to you on that wall. If you pushed him down in the bear's path, the bear it would buy the people getting chased enough time to get inside and clsoe the gate. Do you push that person off the wall?

They had a movie with a similar scenario on state-TV a year or so ago, and at the end the audience got to vote on the verdict; an airfoce pilot was being trialed because he shot down a commercial airliner that got hijacked and was going to get crashed into a football stadium during a game. He shot it down, directly killing the people on-board -who would have died anyway- but saving the spectators of the game.
There really weren't any arguments from the prosecution, just bleeding heart bullshit like bringing grieving parents in and shit, and he was declared not guilty by the audience and the judge.

Basically anything in newer Pokemon games. I keep making the mistake of overthinking the puzzle and trying to pay attention to the problem, instead of just blindly charging forward like the game wants me to.
Best example: Kiawe's fire trial. He says to "watch carefully and memorize this dance" as his Marowak perform two dances, and you have to figure out the difference between the two dances. I kept replaying and studying the dance animations for a couple minutes only to realize the pose they struck at the end was what I was supposed to be looking for, and not the actual dance itself. Then the 2nd and 3rd dances had extremely obvious and funny answers and I remembered it's a game for mentally handicapped (aka japanese) children and not 4-digit IQ adults such as myself.

I'm guessing that you must get the square peg, round peg, and triangular peg into their respective holes. Since that would be child's play, I'll also guess that moving any of the pegs will fill the tile it was previously on, preventing any other peg from moving to that tile.

Got to the building I was supposed to go to and I'm trying to open the door upstairs, downstairs, looking on all sides. Nothing. Second thought was that maybe the boarded-up windows could be smashed in…. no luck. Finally, I find this black square hole in the back of the building and I think "Oh, maybe you have to climb in". Nope. turns out, the front of the building where all the metal spikes are has a steel door that matches in color everything else nearby.

Shit, I didn't think this puzzle was so bullshit at first but that's a very good point.
If "in the end" meant right after the three candles were blown out, you'd still have all 10 candles.
There's no way that an extinguished candle doesn't count as a candle, so the answer is definitely not 7.
If the candles are allowed to burn all the way, you'll be left with the 3 that were extinguished.
0 is possible, but that's probably too extreme of a length of time.
It's times like these you just have to go with the answer you think makes for the best puzzle, which appears to be 3.
Actually, I wonder if this is just a case of bad localization, as the game series is supposedly made by a puzzle master genius.

The fucking library book/chest puzzle in Wild Arms makes no sense. Like 5 shelves of books say random shit and you are supposed to open the chests in an entirely different room in the positions of the ones that are related to things being open. Even knowing that; it still makes no sense when I play that part.
Riven has the greatest puzzle of all time where the entire world that you go through in slideshow first person is represented on a kind of game board where you need to place coloured marbles marking certain things.
'World's hardest puzzle' in Lufia 2 can take hours. It's a sliding block puzzle not required to be done.

I think every item the monkeys want is in that cave (except 1 quest item?), you just have to go to the monkeys in the right order to get to the next.

This was bullshit, think I did these trial and error until I got to the cave with all of them in a row.

I could number the jerseys without using any stencils.

during the gallons treachery quest there is a switch puzzle on the right side of the first fire room
i have solved this puzzle without triggering the fire using walk through wall hax
the sequence of switches allows at least 2 players to navigate across lazer gates and the final switch causes a rock to explode revealing a breakable box of a different type than the normal breakable boxes.
every time i've broken this box it drops no item however something different might happen if you solve the puzzle in the normal quest sequence while running from the fire without using wall hax.
it is definitely possible to solve with a well coordinated team but i haven't found a group dedicated enough to pull it off among my peers.
this largely undocumented puzzle in pso remains unsolved.
it might be worth trying on dreamcast version too since some quests in the later releases have remnants of dreamcast functionality that are present but do not work in these later versions. as an example the mysterious "machine has stopped" messages that you can find hidden in rooms at the end of endless nightmare quests gives you quest items in the dreamcast version.
i pass on this knowledge in hopes that someone might solve this 17 year old mystery.

You have to solve for theta, anon.
