# It took you 9 minutes and 36 seconds to solve this puzzle.
# You were the 1st Tanga member to solve this puzzle.
Sweet! It pays to watch House. I got the idea quickly, but it still took awhile to get what I needed. Colorblind folk, don't despair!

Is "the germans soldiers" supposed to be "the german soldiers"?

It took you 7 minutes and 21 seconds to solve this puzzle.
You were the 4th Tanga member to solve this puzzle.
Don't usually comment here, because I'm rarely on at the right time to be in the top ten.
[3] I have a couple of strays as well.

I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be doing with what I've got. Or not got...

[10] Well, thanks for that. I just solved it now. Had the puzzle been complete in the first place I'd have probably solved it a half hour ago. :|
Surprising that the final answer is what it is - I expected it to be ... derived... from that clue. Of course, with the puzzle being incomplete, there was no way to know which unpaired clue to isolate.

I don't usually comment, but this has hit my level of annoyance...
[11] is completely right... The powers that be should be ashamed for accepting a puzzle that's this incomplete.

To those having issues caused by the incompleteness, keep in mind the form of Tanga puzzle answers... at least that will narrow it down a bit.

[11] - same here.
I narrowed it down to three remaining phrases and didn't know what to do with them (I guess typing them would have saved me at least 35 minutes!)

[14] That was just what I did. I was trying to see if the puzzle theme applied to any of the remaining phrases would make a hint pointing to an answer, or maybe if stringing all three of them together would do anything.

Wow, my bad. I uploaded the wrong final image. I'm surprised they used it in its incomplete form as well.

Seems like an unusual way to end the puzzle after all of that effort.
[EDIT] Now, it makes more sense with the new picture.

Are these anagrams? so confused here.......
Some don't go anywhere.
[EDIT] Ok, got it now.

Image fixed. I kind of expected this to be a Warm Up.

Sad. Very, very sad. First of all, there was--as [11] noted--no reason that the puzzle couldn't have ended with a derived word, rather than just a random word sitting around in the puzzle. Second, the sheer bad planning in using the wrong image shows an intense level of incompetence on the part of Tanga.

It does kind of seem like they are picking the puzzles at the last minute over the past few days.

Hmmm...I was hoping the answer would be 'related' to what's left, in the way the others are...

I think the answer should have been "Anugrams" because that's what they were.
But I agree with [22] it would have been cool to take the process that one step further to get the answer.

[22], [23] Very true. An additional step to a more themed answer would have been better.

I think it was fun as is, but yeah, that extra step for the answer would have been cool.

First time ever that I got the correct answer and I have no idea why or what it means.

[27] Think in pairs of anagrams. Someone's always left out, though.

The answer has to be a single word, so that helped.

Wow, that was cool. The people who figured out some of these (I'm assuming there's some sort of giant list of funny pairs somewhere) must have spent ages coming up with them. Very fun.
