12 hours Puzzle of Arlon

Published 8 June 2016 | By Cathy

Saturday 19^th of March 2016 took place
the second edition of the 12 hours of Arlon.

We are puzzled ! was of course present to defend last year’s title. We knew it would be difficult this year because many strong teams were enrolled. Moreover the number of contesters went from around thirty teams to about sixty and the tournament of Arlon clearly became the second biggest tournament in Belgium (behind Hannut).

Given that the tournament is very well organized by the Kiwanis Club of Arlon and given that their building allows to welcome many more teams, I am sure that this tournament is going to continue to grow during the next editions. At least that's what I wish them.

The only thing which we regret is that the two biggest tournaments of Belgium use the same brand of puzzle: Jumbo. It reduces considerably the choice of jigsaw puzzles in order to avoid having the same as in Hannut, so there is no big variety in the puzzles. We find it all the more a pity as we do not like the puzzles Jumbo, neither for their motives (a lot of puzzles with small characters: the "Van Haasteren", "Where is Wally?" and "Pieces of history"), nor for the quality of the pieces.

I hope moreover that the tournament of Arlon is going to cultivate its differences with Hannut, first of all by keeping its format of 12 hours which makes its uniqueness, and I do not despair to see another brand there than Jumbo.

Let's speak now about the contest itself...

We begin with a 500 pieces "the brewery" of the collection Jan Van Haasteren, followed by a 1000 pieces, "The Castle" of the collection "Pieces of history". After these two puzzles which do not suit especially to our team, we are 2nd or 3rd, but already quite far from the leaders, the "Yapluka" team, that we know way stronger than us on the puzzles with small characters.

Our third puzzle is a 1500 pieces representing animals of the jungle including a lion whose head occupies two thirds of the puzzle. A brief debate begins on the use or not of the joker on this puzzle. On one side, this puzzle is apparently very difficult, especially knowing the quality of Jumbo pieces. On another one, my co-team members like this kind of puzzle and want to do something else than "small characters". The heart (and the majority ;-)) takes it on the reason and we decide not to use this joker.

While we assemble this puzzle, we notice that several other teams which used their joker on the 3rd puzzle, finish the 4th one (a 1500 pieces of the Wasgij collection) well ahead of us. When we finally finish our 3rd puzzle, we decide to use our joker on the 4th and begin the 5th, a 1000 pieces representing kittens.

At this stage, it is our neighbouring team, the "Puzzlinelles" who is in the lead with approximately half an hour lead on us. "Yapluka" made the same error as us on the jokers and went from 25 minutes in front of us to 10 minutes behind us.

On the cats, we reduce the gap with the Puzzlinelles and begin the 6th puzzle (a 2000 pieces) with about ten minutes of delay on them. This puzzle allows us to take the lead and we begin the 7th puzzle with 2 hours remaining in the contest. But there, it is another Van Haasteren 1000 pieces that awaits us! When we hear that "Yapluka" is still only 10 min behind us we know that on this type of puzzle, the chance is big that they will overtake us. And it is what happens, they finish their puzzle with a 5-10 minutes lead on us and with 15 minutes left on the last puzzle (a 1500 pieces), it is not enough to come back.

We finish thus second of the contest but we are not at all disappointed to lose our title. We are even rather satisfied with our performance because we expected to end much farther from the "Yapluka".

Gramzzle … looking for an editor

Published 13 May 2016 | By wap

Remember...

Just a few months ago, we met Caroline Imperato & Melanie Perin two young Speech therapist that presented us the concept of their game to learn grammar by playing.

Ah, la grammaire en puzzle !

Their participation in International Games Festival in Cannes was a succes. Caroline & Melanie had invested in an "author's Table" and met a large and varied audience during these 4 days.

Parents, children, publishers, professionals, or just curious have succeeded at their author’s table to discover the prototype of the game.

The feedbacks of the festival have been great and qualitative and as we know, discussions with potential editors are being on the roa but shhh… it’s quite secret

Fête des Jeux de Mougins

Caroline was contacted by the city hall of Mougins to participate in the event. Not think twice, prototype under the arm, she will present the concept of the game to fifteen children happy. Oh, and did I mention the main ...

The name of the game will be Gramzzle

Gramzzle ah, la grammaire en puzzle !

Puzzleskiing

There is still a lot of good fresh snow on our mountains, so let's take the opportunity of a good piece of Peuff... (This term is used to name the freshly fallen snow).

But, what is the relation between ski and puzzles? There would be a puzzle contest organized by a ski resort? Unfortunately not, not yet, but it would be great! Imagine the program, raclette, Puzzle and tartiflette.

The point between Puzzle and skiing, is Art

And more precisely an artist

Boudro is a Quebec artist, with a colorful Pop-Art universe, in love with New York and its yellow cabs, which have become his signature, he likes the commercial, logos, and iconic comics.

PuzzleDay 2016 Durbuy-Barvaux Contest

Published 20 March 2016 | By wap

Saturday 12th March 2016, took place in Barvaux-Durbuy

the annual jigsaw contest "PuzzleDay".

31 teams enrolled in the 8 hours competition, We are puzzled ! was there...

So this is it, a new contest has passed, and it was again a great day for puzzles’ fans.

Clementoni puzzles are of good quality so we already know we will have a good time during the 8 hours puzzle contest of Barvaux-Durbuy. But when in addition to that, the organizer manages to get puzzles with varied size, shape and images, it’s just perfect! The organizer is so nice, and always available for all participants. There were prizes for everybody, as well as medals and trophies for the best ones. The music was in general at a good volume, and as an extra each team got a plate with some appetizers directly brought to their table!

We started the competition with a 500 pieces puzzle quite easy, representing a mouse in its home while the cat is on the watch… We are puzzled ! was probably still sleeping because our timing was not very good and we were some minutes behind the first team.

Then we had a panoramic 1000 pieces puzzle with Disney characters, and the gap was a bit increased. When we finished our Minions round puzzle of 213 pieces we were still behind.

The next puzzle was triptych of London photos, 500 pieces each part. We had to present the 3 parts assembled, and we decided to start all 3 puzzles at the same time instead of being the four of us completing the same puzzle one after the other: this allowed us to not bother one each other and to better distribute the tasks. I believe this tactic was the good one as we managed to finish our 3 puzzles before the team that had been ahead of us until then, and after that we were able to keep our advantage for the rest of the contest, while successively completing two 1000 pieces puzzles until getting to the…

Impossible puzzle of this year !!! This time there were no Minions, but hundreds of Olafs from the Disney movie Frozen… Thanks God there were "only" two hours left, just the time to sort the pieces, finish the frame, and find a "path" to link the edge to the princesses heads from the center, so those pieces would be part of the final counting…

20mn before the end, we finally did it and our victory shout must have destabilized our challengers because they hid their table so we could not see their progress… Maybe they were hoping that we would relax the pressure if we thought they had not done it too, but they do not know that our aim is not to win, but to do the best we can! This is why we kept up adding some pieces here and there until the end.

Finally we won the competition thanks to the 25 pieces we had more than the team who finished second. We won a 6.000 puzzle and a 2.000 puzzle. Plus the same 500 pieces puzzle for each team member, as well as a trophy and a medal that we always like to get!

Puzzles from the contest:

This year, Sophie and Patrice de Goncourt were present
and they have participated to the competition through their team Novabysse.

They were only two, but they finished third! Even though Sophie was absent for a moment in order to participate to the individual contest ; in fact she finished last but one as there were only 20mn left on the time clock; you won’t see very often such a bad result, so enjoy the news 🙂 Anyway their talent continues to amaze us…

This edition’s results portend a strong competition during the 12 hours Puzzle contest of Arlon on the 19th March… But it’s with great pleasure that we will put our leader’s position up for grabs, this is what makes it more interesting for all of us.

Meanwhile, as Saturday had been such a perfect day, we wanted to put a little bit of competition in the air again on Sunday: so by pairs (We are puzzled ! vs Novabysse), we assembled the 500 pieces puzzles we had won the day before ; no surprise, Novabysse finished first their puzzle in 40 minutes, we had to add 6 small additional minutes to finish ours…

Maransart

by Sophie de Goncourt

Saturday, February 6, 2016,took place the 11th Jigsaw Puzzle Competition of Maransart, organized by "la pièce qui compte".

Our adventure to Maransart start with an announcement on the 8 hours of Barvaux. Patrice asks me: "Can we go?" Of course! And how about asking to the We are puzzled! to participate with us?

In no time, I contact Cathy via Facebook. But her team is already complete, however she tells me she has space for the 4 hours Maransart contest on the 6th February. I tell this to Patrice who directly answers: "Let’s go". And this is how starts our trip from the Sarthe region in France, to Belgium. We decide to go by train so we can rest a bit. Cathy and Patrick invite us to stay at their place. This sounds perfect !

There we are in Brussels, on a grey week-end. After a Friday evening eating a "raclette" and the Saturday’s brunch, we go to Maransart. We are welcomed by the organizers, surprised to see some French participating to their contest. As usual, the good mood of Belgian people enchant us. Some participants eager to win are less happy to see us here.

We are split in two rooms. Now this is new to us: when the puzzle is finished, we have to go and ring a bell!

I see that the puzzles have been chosen by puzzle lovers. The images are colorful, easy to assembly between teams of four. It’s a real pleasure to see organizers as crazy as the participants. We can discuss about small carton pieces with everybody. Of course, the refreshment stall is well provided, there is plenty to eat and to drink. And so, we are ready to win.

1h57 hours later, our jungle is finished. Patrick runs to ring the bell. We are the first ones to have completed our puzzle in the expert category. One of the organizers bring a pile of old puzzles, everyone can chose in the pile some puzzles to assemble or even take back home. As we are fanatics, we buy the other two puzzles of the contest and use the remaining 2 hours to puzzle some more.

At the prize-giving, the first three teams of each category gets a diploma and a trophy. The first prize in the expert category was missing in the collection of We are puzzled!. Now their collection is complete.

Maransart has been a very nice puzzling experience:
a cheerful atmosphere, perfect puzzles, plenty to eat and drink. What more could we have wanted? 🙂

Puzzle ‘n grammar !

Two passionate develop a learning game,

"Ah, la grammaire en Puzzle..."

Behind this title, hiding a leisure-educational concept, a friendship, a project and a human adventure.

The adventure begins in Belgium, where Caroline is studying at the "Haute École" of the Province of Liege, to be Speech Therapist . She met Mélanie following the same course in the same university.

For his final thesis study "Welcome to the French oral syntax!" Caroline creates a pictorial material which allows it to stimulate 4 children of Turkish origin....

Today, both graduates, they are installed and work separately. Melanie Perin stayed at Liege where she is a Speech therapist in the Royal Institute for Disabled Hearing and Sight IRHOV .

Caroline Imperato exercises in the south of France where she opened her speech therapist office.

Their years of study sealed a strong friendship and a common project. Develop and publish materials developed in the Caroline final thesis.

"Use the puzzle has allowed us to reproduce the Turkish syntax surface structure which is an agglutinative language and bring a playful dimension. Our work has validated our hypothesis: the materials created would address the shortcomings inherent in the situation of bilingualism in children of Turkish origin. "

Since we consider present a version of the hardware more "For All".

You will see by yourself, it is quite possible to induce a grammatical awareness among toddlers.

Moreover, this material is completely adaptable to children who can read.

Play and practice grammar is possible!

A Speech therapist colleague, Michele Weber, seduced by the Project has completed the team. A graphic designer, Jean-Baptiste Pollien also joined the team to perfect the visual, the prototype is ready, hand-made, cut with the jigsaw and will be presented at the next International Games Festival in Cannes (south of France).

A part of the production could be done by the carpentry section of IRHOV

(Royal Institute For Handicapped People of Hearing and Sight) - Allowing disabled youth to get involved in the adventure.

"Children who help other children"

what a nice reciprocity!

Discover the original concept of Caroline Imperato & Melanie Perin at the International Games Festival in Cannes and test their game.

The concept

Learn to make simple sentences, grammatically correct and have fun. Induce grammatical consciousness in infants

The main aim of the game

Develop the syntax on both sides understanding & expression and build vocabulary (various selected themes such as fruits & vegetables, school supplies, clothing and crafts).

The main game mechanics

Each unit of a sentence is represented by a pictorial piece, abstract or written.

The goal is to create a pictorial sentence and / or written form of puzzle where the pieces vary in shape and color according to their nature and their grammatical function.

These pieces fit into each other from side to side like a small linear puzzle to bring a playful dimension. Wooden parts are created "generic / bosses" reproducing the different structures. Images of the same forms are to be placed on these wooden foundations.

A reward system is proposed to encourage the child.

The Sayings of the puzzle pieces are designated to verify, first, vocabulary and grammar induced.

Then, handling allows to build simple sentences correctly.

The idea is therefore to provide the correct sentence structures both auditory and visual fashion.

5th Puzzeliade Hotton

Published 9 February 2016 | By Cathy

Sunday 24th January took place
the 5^th Puzzeliade in Hotton

Organized by the parents committee of the free school of Hotton-Melreux, the Puzzeliade opens the jigsaw puzzle contest season in Belgium, and it is always a pleasure to participate. The organizers try to vary the sponsors, so every year we have a surprise in terms of brand and type of puzzles. The atmosphere is warm, and there is a prize for everyone.

The week-end had not started very well for me, and I was not in a happy mood:

Why ?

on Friday my work laptop had an unexplained failure; when I got home that evening a strange coincidence happened and my personal computer had the same failure. I spent all my Saturday reformatting it and installing programs, and I was quite satisfied with myself until on Sunday morning it refused to restart. I was therefore in a bad temper when we left home that morning, but it was not yet over…
At around 40km from Hotton, all the lights in the car suddenly turned on, informing of a motor issue, and there we really thought we would not make it to the contest. But we finally arrived.

And as soon as we entered the room, the so special and characteristic atmosphere of jigsaw puzzle contest just wrapped us and we found back our smile, all problem forgotten.

This year the contest was really successful, with a record attendance of 33 teams. The competition was sponsored by Trefl. Although I am not personally a fan of this brand as I find that pieces are not of good quality, I really liked the puzzled proposed. We started with a 1000 pieces puzzle representing a yellow cab in a black and white New York, then a 1000 pieces Zebra quite difficult to assemble, next a 1500 pieces puzzle representing a landscape with a lake, and finally a 1000 pieces with cupcakes.

Normally only those 4 puzzles where scheduled, but as there were still around 2 hours of contest left, the organizers gave us one extra from a previous edition, from the brand White Mountains. This puzzle is one of my favourite as the pieces shapes are so atypical from what we find in Europe.

We are puzzled ! won the competition for the 4th consecutive year. It was an excellent way to finish this day that had so badly begun. Now we are ready for the next competition 🙂

Reto 2016 – Puzz’ of the Canary

Published 7 February 2016 | By wap

RETO 2016, MATEMÁTICAS 10 ⁵
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

Based on the original article published 04/02/2016 by Mundo Puzzlero

Big PuzzleAddicts meeting in Las Palmas, 29, 30 and 31 January 2016, to participate in The Reto 2016 - Puzzle Challenge in Canary Island. Organized by the Spanish Association of Puzzle "Aepuzz", the Canary Association of Mathematics Teachers "Isaac Newton" and "The Cabildo* Insular of Grand Canary" - *Island Canary Council (each of the canary island is governed by its own Cabildo). Clementoni, Lifer toy store and Coca Cola supported the event.

In addition to the challenge, there were other activities: exhibitions, workshops and conferences.

The challenge was to Assemble 100,000 pieces, by doing 100 jigsaw Puzzle Clementoni 1000 piece each. In just 24H!

69 Jigsaw Puzzle lovers participated … in 15 teams

The challenge was big, impressive, ambitious, considering the number of parts to be assembled to the number of participant.

After 12 hours, half of the challenge (50,000 pieces) was not reached, but the delay did not affect the troop-morale, and all participants worked twice as hard to succeed.

the last leg of the challenge

Two hours before the end, some preferred not to start a new puzzle and chose to join and help the other teams to complete the puzzles in progress. Result, More than 20,000 parts assembled during those 2 hours.

The atmosphere was so high that it was possible to hear outside of the building, the public’s encouragement from the inside, who was here to support the event and cheering the teams enthusiastically.

After 24 hours, 77 Puzzles completed, others in progress, for a total of 83.466 pieces!

Pictures are on the Mundo Puzzlero Facebook Page

Epilog

In a strictly numerical way, obviously the 100,000 pieces in 24 hours are not achieved.
But, and that is a goog new, it open the door to a new try. And on the other hand if we consider everyone's commitment, the organization of the meeting, from a qualitative point of view, we can say that the objective has been largely exceeded!

And finally, the most important in this adventure, it's not the 100,000 pieces challenge, but rather the 69 smiles from ear to ear (look like they slept with a hanger in their mouth*) and 69 pairs of sparkling eyes.

Congratulations to all and see you soon for a new challenge!

You can read on the original article the names of who tried to assemble 100,000 pieces in 24 hours.

32000 Vic pieces of life

During a serendipity-web-session, I found a very nice story.

She is Vic, a young Belgian, jigsaw-puzzle-addicted, which launch in February 2014 into the conquest of the 32,256 pieces of Keith Haring. She created her blog to share this adventure with everyone.

Au fil des mois, Vic assemble , trie, pièces après pièces, couleur après couleur.

Over the months, Vic, assembles, classifies, piece by piece, color after color.
