ToasterComp II Speed-IF ToasterComp II Speed-IFToasterComp II SpeedIF was run in the morning of April 12th, 2003. The solutions below are by David Welbourn.
| The Land of No TOAST |
A one-room bit of silliness; its one puzzle was borrowed from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. This walkthrough is based on Release 5 of the game.
>about. x me. i. x toast.
>jump. listen. pray. damn. darn. sing. sleep.
>drop no toast. i. x toast. burn toast. eat toast.

More rooms than The Epitome of Toastlessness (see above), more monkeys, and more bready things, but it's essentially the same puzzle. There are a few ways to die: don't use the magic word TSAOT, don't kill the monkey, and don't give the toaster to the monkey.
Also, the stuff you get from the ghost can be eaten by you or the monkey, but they're not important. Plus, you cannot enter the Zone of No Toast while carrying toast, which is a nice touch.
>about. x toaster. take it. x portal. e
>x no toast. take it. x sofa. search it. sit on it. (tsaot. undo.) n.
>x ghost. x bagel. take it.
>x ghost. x scone. take it.
>x ghost. x muffin. take it.
>x ghost. x croissant. take it.
>x ghost. hit ghost. ask ghost about monkey. give no toast to ghost. kiss ghost. w. d.
>x monkey. kiss monkey. (kill monkey. undo.)
>(give toaster to monkey. undo.)
>give no toast to monkey. i. x toast.
>(give toast to monkey.) eat toast.
| Kitchen |
The horror! The horror! It's an eight-high Tower of Hanoi puzzle, with slices of toast on plates instead of disks on posts. What makes it even worse than usual: (1) it's EIGHT slices, which is horrific enough under the best of circumstances, (2) the slices aren't visually different in any way, (3) you can't use "it" to refer to the slice you just picked up, (4) there's no payoff for all your hard work.
Here's some initial play, where you learn just how bad your situation is.
>x toaster. x toast. x blue plate. x green plate.
>x table. x chair. x counter. i. x white plate.
>take toast. (uh-oh. You have a 1-object carrying limit!)
>drop white. take toast. eat it. (I can't eat standing up?)
>sit on chair. eat toast. ("But you don't have all the toast yet!")
>put toast on blue. take blue. take green. (Those plates are glued down! Ugh.)
>take toast. put it on white. take toast from blue. put toast on white. (erk. gag. bibble. Slices are different sizes.)
>put toast on table (or chair, floor, counter, toaster? Nyet. Sorry.)
>transfer blue to white. empty blue. (No. But nice try.)
So, this is gonna be fun, right? Not in the slightest. I'm numbering the slices 1 thru 8, with 1 as the smallest.
