I'm stuck, horribly.
JAG #8, can't see any difference. Can someone post some hint as to what should I be looking for?

Some of the JAGs can be annoying.
You can always try everything, but that is going to take forever in that room.

Spoiler: show
Look at the pattern

That room is indeed one that can be very hard to solve.
Or it can be very easy. (I did it in two minutes >_>)
It's about thinking 'out-side-the-box'

Try to focus more on everything than on individual details


*hugs*

An answer was soooo frustrating, once I figured it out. You just have to start to wonder if you aren't stupid to not solve it earlier.
Thanks for the hints, they did help

I'm embarrassed to say I spent a couple hours looking at that one too. Past it finally. :)

Zeriab's last hint is a good one. Along the same lines:
Spoiler: show
Compare the pattern you see in #8 to the one you already saw in #5. The difference is significant here.

Edit: I had typed #6 when I meant #5. Sorry!

Edit: Fixed typo, sorry!

It is indeed annoying when you can't see the wood for the trees.

Don't feel embarrassed.
It does seem obvious once you figure it out, but that is deceiving.
The simple can be the hardest to figure out.

It's not weird that you spend a long time on it.
What's weird is that I only spent 2 minutes.


I got to say that the Trickster really have done it well here, making people feel frustated with themselves +::biggrin

*hugs*

I'm really stuck on this one. :( I didn't really understand 6 either, I think that I just got lucky. Is it something to do with the darker pattern on top?

I'd say more like a incomplete patten?
Hope it doesn't muddy thing more

The tomb one?
I don't remember how it was, so I cannot give you have hint.
Isn't there a limited number of tomb stones? I don't think brute forcing it would be too tedious.
