 The
Manx is a competitive event based on the identification of symbols
incorporated into a photo or other graphic design. The graphic
featured in a particular Manx puzzle will include a representation
of the event's
Grand Prize. The puzzle's title also reflects the prize. For
instance, the Plasma Manx offers a large screen plasma television
as the Grand Prize.
The
Manx Training Samples contain
all information you need to become a proficient solver before an
event begins. I recommend
reading all documentation and practicing each puzzle
sample to
thoroughly
familiarize yourself with the methodology. This will provide
the best opportunity to do well in a competition.
Advanced Manx puzzles
are ciphers, so the use of the Polyalphabetic Table
comes into play. You can read about this table and the Vigenere
Cipher on
many related Internet sites.
A code word (Keyword) starting methodology
used by each Manx event enables all participants to begin at the same time. All
competitors start on a level playing field. No
one has any advantage over anyone else. Timing is
done via the Internet. Your local computer's clock has no interaction
with the event.
Manx competitions are designed so everyone can
come away a winner. As the events grow we will be able
to offer more impressive awards. How about a $1,000,000
Manx? That
would be impressive. So the time to get proficient solving
Manx puzzles is now!
