Damn huge one and all pieces look the same :o
maybe i will give it a try in few days when less busy.
I wonder if each puzzle will get bigger and the shades even more similar :D
the final puzzle then 5k pieces all black šš

Absolutely not! I just wanted to discourage the "gimme" peeps. they will get smaller over the month as time dwindles down. ;-)
Plus, I regularly solve the biggest puzzles on jigidi as a matter of course. Just started with the biggest since it has the longest time to solve!

Fair enough ^^
I will give it a try if i will feel like its jigidi time :)

To be fair, most of this train is bundle trash... meh, but things are slow here on SG...

Sadly I think this will eliminate a good few of the people who don't mind the occasional jigidi, while the cheaters will just plow past it anyway.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes.
It give, at least, 3 ways to cheat.
Needed time to solve jigidis: Seconds
That's the reason why i def. don't do jigidis anymore that are bigger as 120 pieces.
The cheaters have a extreme advantage and with each +1 jigidi piece it gets bigger.
Comment has been collapsed.
True. But do you want me to require a minimum solve time?
Comment has been collapsed.
What I want is not the most important and it would include a "nuke em all" button :-D
If you would write a req. minimum solve time, the cheaters would have that one because the jigidi clock can be manipulated.
I seen your text "Please do not share the GA links with anyone. If I suspect you have cheated, I'll ask for a screenshots from everyone, report any offenders and then blacklist those found to be cheating. Don't be "that" person who inflicts this pain on everyone who spent time solving a puzzle." and it is a step in the right direction, from my point of view.
But because the jigidi account name are, often, not the same as the sg account (i nearly never seen a cheater that used his main account/real sg name for the jigidis) and only a few are listed in the ranking, it would be hard for you to spot if someone cheated. And nearly impossible if the one isn't listed in the ranking.
Demanding a screenshot is possible but be aware that in the past people shared their screenshot with a group of cheater people, so if your GA winner is one of them it doesn't mean he really solved the jigidi by himself if he present a screenshot.
Maybe it would be possible to demand that the participants register on jigidi with the sg name, login and screenshot the solved jigidi with the name visible.
But not all users would accept/do this and if a problem rises up the sg mods could say "not backed up from our rules" and you would forced to send a win to someone that you assume, maybe, cheating but can't proof it. I am not 100% sure with the sg mod reaction, so it is only a assuming.
In the end you see that it is complicate and it don't give a easy solution because sg is a cheater heaven that attract a lot of such people.
1200 open user report tickets (many since years), 40-50% of this tickets are from 3 users, i am one of them, and i know that over 25% of the tickets are reports of autojoiners with evidences that are crystal clear ones.

Sigh. ok - so no real way to check. Meh - just doing my best to provide some entertainment here....
Comment has been collapsed.
that's a massive jigidi, I will consider working on this later someday.
hope you consider listing what games are in the train, that Jigidi will prbly take close to 2hrs+ with those colors.
Comment has been collapsed.
I might consider adding a list of the following giveaways - when I add them. There aren't a lot of "puzzle" events going on right now so I wanted to add a "massive" jigidi for those who love them.
Comment has been collapsed.
I enjoy jigidis, but this one is daunting
everything being the same color and huge oof
sad that you already have cheaters finishing it...
Comment has been collapsed.
True but here's my thinking - those who cheat are sad people that get some minimal amount of joy in life.
Me, I'm just doing my best to provide some entertainment and gifts to those who do care.
Over 12+ years here, I've likely gifted a lot of cheaters but overall, most of my gifts go to people who've appreciated them.
Comment has been collapsed.
I love the idea of a lazy train! I might have to super slow jigidi to get aboard. š I long ago made a jigidi account after doing mobile phone jigidi and having my browser decide to reload and lose everything. Lesson learned!
Thanks for the (eventual) train!
Comment has been collapsed.
An account is always one of my recommends - especially as I might ask for "screenshots" to prevent cheaters from sharing the GA link.
Comment has been collapsed.
With that amount of pieces, not sure i will try unless the prize games are told. Need some encouragements xD
Comment has been collapsed.
To be fair, all of this is bundle trash - if you're in inveterate bundle buyer, don't bother. This train is for newbies that don't own a bunch of frequently bundled games! And the puzzle has the name of the GA...
Comment has been collapsed.
That was my reaction too :D
I'll manage some time this week end to solve it (and maybe add some painkillers on top of it as this one will strain my eyes :D)
Comment has been collapsed.
Nope. šāāļø Iām too lazy for this train. Probably not missing out.
Comment has been collapsed.
Nope - not missing out on much. Old HB and Fanatical keys....
Comment has been collapsed.
I never say no to a hard Jigi but I'll say not right now. I haven't slept enough this week for a 500+ Jigi in monochrome.
Someone did it in 39 mn... wow. And first timer on Jigi too. Must be a miracle worker lol
Comment has been collapsed.
Still think that cheating on jigidis is still a thing, personally.
Comment has been collapsed.
You're probably right. I think that the auto-solve script that Jigidi said they fixed (or are now detecting, I don't know) has definitely been replaced by something.
I read comments in another thread that some Firefox extension was causing "misreported" times but yeah I don't believe that it's that popular an extension
Comment has been collapsed.
It give 3 cheat methods.
I am not "up to date" which ones got MAYBE fixed in the last few months but i know that i caught a known lvl 8 sg user, with multiple accounts -a part of one of his alt accounts name was used for the jigidi cheating...- (he got a perma suspension for his accounts on sg... and lost a bunch of steam friends -but a good bunch don't cared...-) a few months ago and he cheated the jigidis with the "instant solved" cheat.
And i know that whenever the jigidi site reported they fixed the problem that shortly after the cheating was again possible.
Which result in my assuming that at every time one or more cheat possibilities are active.
That's the reason why i def. don't do jigidis anymore that are bigger as 120 pieces (and mostly only till 80 pieces).
The cheaters have a extreme advantage and with each +1 jigidi piece it gets bigger.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well I solve Jigis to relax even when I own the game or am not interested but it's a shame that cheaters are ruining for people who are interested in the GAs. Nothing new with humankind though.
Comment has been collapsed.
I solve sometimes jigidis to relax too but i pick then really nice ones that i totally like.
A huge monochrome one wouldn't be picked from me :-DDDD
Comment has been collapsed.
if you made a nonogram instead i would have attempted it
Comment has been collapsed.
Nope, I'm getting wrist RSI just from opening the jigidi. I'd take a 100*100 nonogram over this any day of the week lol.
Comment has been collapsed.
You have my respect! You're probably in the top 3 considering the top 5 are obviously not real times and the top 10 ends with 5h and change, which means the majority of real solvers spent more than 5 hours on it.
Comment has been collapsed.
š The first one the art is very nice, but not the best for jigidis š
It's going to take me a while.
Comment has been collapsed.
It's a shame there isn't a tool which could confirm if you already own the game without revealing what it is š
Someone should make that!
Because yeah, 600 pieces is a hell of a commitment without knowing if it's even a game I'm missing, let alone particularly interested in...
Comment has been collapsed.
To be fair, I am starting to add a lot of following GA's to the train. 17 so far and a lot still to come. But they're old HB bundle games, so nothing special.
Comment has been collapsed.
The number of pieces has beaten my motivation, especially without knowing what's behind it ^^
So.. just a thanks for the event :)
Comment has been collapsed.
It is same name as jigidi - Apocalipsis, i believe it should be in the main post -
since game is 7$/0.69 on discount.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you very much. I didn't know this game so I hadn't paid much attention to the title.
This confirms what I thought, I'm going to spend more time doing the jigidi than playing the game even if I win :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks for the train, but there are too many pieces for me. I think it will take me more than 2 hours, maybe 3, and the game itself doesn't matter. It's too long for me. I'll leave you a BUMP.
Comment has been collapsed.
Finished after several hours (with breaks). But when I see that the first finished in less than 40 minutes, I have serious doubts...
Comment has been collapsed.
Don't have serious doubts.
Such people cheat clearly.
And it is (very) known that jigidis can be cheated, at least, with 3 methods.
Comment has been collapsed.
What a shame. I enjoyed spending time looking and I like the site. On the other hand, there's not much point in organising a giveaway with it.
Comment has been collapsed.
To be fair, I just started adding old HB bundle games and will be adding more but I get it - more bundle trash. I get that but didn't advertise this as some kind of awesome AAA GA ;-)
Comment has been collapsed.
hell ysah i prob should've slept last night, but doing the jigi was also good
Comment has been collapsed.
That jigidi is way too big to do without knowing if I want to even enter the GA on the other side :( Will have to skip for now
Comment has been collapsed.
Holy cow... I am approx. 1 1/2 hours into the puzzle and it starts to at least form some patches hear and there. But far from finished. :D
I will go back to it every now and then (and consider getting a bigger screen, mine is just way too small - I have to zoom in and out all the time to recognise patterns on the pieces). š¤Ŗš
Comment has been collapsed.
I have a 32" 1440p display and still have a hard time recognizing the finer details on pieces without zooming in. I think I need a serious color calibration for my monitor, or a new set of younger eyes :)
Good luck!
Comment has been collapsed.
I have a cheap 22" screen with no colour calibration whatsoever AND old eyes. š¤Ŗš¤£
Anyway, I think I will just do half-hour stints every now and then.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just make sure you're well logged in every time. I lost my first 2 hours on the puzzle because my cookie monster got me logged out of Jigidi and didn't check.
I have a 17" crap screen and old glasses so it was a pain to start again.
Comment has been collapsed.
I feel you. I ended up solving the whole thing after nearly 5 1/2 hours overall. And fortunately no cookie monster.
Comment has been collapsed.
I really like puzzles, but this one was a pain and took me 5.5 hours.
Comment has been collapsed.
The first puzzle has updated GA's from my HB clean-out ALL the keys effort. I'll be adding more over the next few days, so make sure to bookmark...
SEVENTEEN Added so far... more to come.
I might add some more puzzles but considering the negative feedback on the first, meh, maybe not. I thought it was kind of slow around here and wanted to give the puzzlers something challenging they could work on over a month, but now I am wondering why bother. Anyway, hope some of you that completed the initial puzzle find some gems in the train that made it worth the effort.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
It's been a few months since I did a train and decided to create one with some difficult puzzles.
Please don't hate on me for making some huge jigsaws - there's plenty of time to work on them (I highly recommended setting up a free jigidi account to save your progress!).
Right now, it's just this one gift but I'll be adding more each day until the end of May. GA's start at L3 and may increase (you will be warned in advance so you don't waste your time). The initial jigsaw puzzles with be based on the first game - but there maybe other games added to the train without needing to solve a puzzle. I'll do my best to keep them within the same genre of the original game.
Please do not share the GA links with anyone. If I suspect you have cheated, I'll ask for a screenshots from everyone, report any offenders and then blacklist those found to be cheating. Don't be "that" person who inflicts this pain on everyone who spent time solving a puzzle.
All games in this train come from Fanatical or HB and as far as I know, do NOT have regional locks. If you do win and there is a lock, kindly agree to a deletion. Thanks for understanding!
