8 queens of death

[Adventure]

Now you only need 8 more to have found all 12 unique solutions then Adventure

Lol, it is? Well that looks like a challenge for me.

Okay found 4 other solutions:

5) A6, B1, C5, D2, E8, F3, G7, H4
6) A4, B7, C3, D8, E2, F5, G1, H6
7) A4, B2, C8, D6, E1, F3, G5, H7
8) A5, B2, C6, D1, E7, F4, G8, H3

The last four I save for later.

Yay!That was simple,did it in 45 secs!

[sonicfan0]

yay for adventure now there are only 4 more solutions to find and then we can put them into a spoiler

[Adventure]

Lol, I just found two typos in my earlier solutions. Corrected them.

And I found two more solutions, but now it's gonna be really hard.

9) A5, B3, C1, D6, E8, F2, G4, H7
10) A3, B7, C2, D8, E5, F1, G4, H6

Next time I going to try to find to last two solutions, but I am not sure if I will succeed. Wish me luck.

Edit:

The last four solutions, which come from me:

11) A6, B3, C1, D7, E5, F8, G2, H4
12) A4, B2, C7, D5, E1, F8, G6, H3
13) A6, B4, C7, D1, E3, F5, G2, H8
14) A5, B1, C8, D6, E3, F7, G2, H4

I don’t know how much of the 14 solutions I gave are indeed unique (not motivated enough to find out, sorry).

I also don’t understand why there are 92 solutions to distinct. 92 divisible by 12 gives not a round number, what means that not every unique solution has the same number of variation.

Well, that’s it for me (related to this game). If anyone like to try to find the other 78 solutions, be my guest.

[Luke13]

I did it!

[ThemePark]

I should've checked your first 4 solutions before I said anything, Adventure But I did that now, and your first 8 are actually variations of the same unique solution. And number 10 and 11 are also variations of another unique solution. But you did manage to find 6 unique solutions all in all, any one of #1-8, #9, any one of #10-11, #12, #13 and #14.

And yes I was motivated enough to find out

As for why it's 92, each way of putting the queens on the chessboard will have 7 variations, 3 due to rotation, then 1 by mirroring the setup, and another 3 due to rotation, thus 8 in total. But some of those variations will be the same, because they're symmetrical. That's why there's only 92.

[Adventure]

LOL. I should have known you would check it out.

So I only found half of the unique variations? I think that's enough for me. It has to stay fun and not become a math assignment.

But I appreciate your willing to find this out and your motivation to explain why there are only 92 solutions. Thank you once again.

Here is an answer I got without any help.

[flameknight73]

*** are u talking about lol

[sonicfan0]

wow i can't believe i completely forgot this game anyway how'd u like this game and the other * practical joke* game i've submitted

[xBabyHarrietx]

hiyya

[brainwreck]

thrill doesn't last too long

nice game, but too easy to reach the finish line.

took me a couple of shots but found the solution pretty quick.

keep trying there are, as stated out here a finite number of moves, so if you don't succeed, try, try again.

[hazelmom]

finished just dont place a queen on a square another one is on and ull do it
