MARCH 25th - March 26th - UNFEATURED PUZZLES

Three unfeatured puzzles today by
1) dajagr - fractal 23
2) workerbee - red background
3) workerbee - baseball

Pb

for 1. dajagr

I have tried filling in the XOXOXXOOXO string with anything.
the only thing I find that even fits is MANDLEBROT - but have been informed that the background means nothing.

23 could either be BC or W that doesn't yield anything that allows you to fill in the xo string

23 is the atomic number of vanadium

W is the symbol for tungsten

twothree
twentythree

all non starters to fill in the string

grrrr :gulp::soblue::yuk::cry::surprise:zombie
Must67
Fractal

Apply the numbers 2 and 3 to the string. Two letter dumb answer

Hard puzzle by Gameczar (Paint colors)
http://www.tanga.com/puzzles/1690-3-28-2008

I've tried applying all kinds of numbers to the paint chip names - but haven't found anything that looks promising...

Me too. And, given that the colors are ROYGBIV, I've tried spectrum, prism, ...

What could the zeroes in those numbers refer to?

I've tried applying each of the numbers individually to the names of the colors

e.g. the last numbers 6063060
and skipped the 0's thinking "blank"


edit
I really liked tarnzur that s/b a color, kinda bronzish-blue

That word "pardon" keeps grabbing my attention. Any thoughts about it?

par - equality, average, normal
don - to put on, head of a family, tutor...

pardon - excuse - absolve, free

pardon .... pare down?

random thoughts - not particularly useful

what catches my eye is "Key Associate"

associate keys???

associate: to unite; combine - to enter into union - unite


added all the keys together to get 5282681 -> ebhbfha

For what it's worth, I believe 3 of the colors are mislabeled:
Carrot Stick #766532
Azure Wish #677232
Grape Harvest #739632

I agree that those three colors are mislabeled, and the error is perpetuated in the solution explanation. But it's solvable the way it is.
