I've tried different pipe combos, addition, subtraction, looking at the page from different angles and I feel like I'm moving further away from the solution. This one is making me feel dense. I've solved a couple others in the interim but this one I step away from and every new idea has given no hint I am on the right track.

The solution does not involve

math.

It does involve

making something.

Maybe helpful: I used photo software to duplicate and manipulate the pieces. It made the result much more clear to me.

Not especially helpful: this is one of those puzzles where, when I found the answer, I thought, "nah, that can't be it."

Also, keep in mind the MPC's penchant for

acronyms.

I used a photocopier and scissors and tape. :-)

Well, I'm still stuck. As for what I have tried

SPOILER: Click to show

I have used the numbers in the ad and underneath the pipes to try and make shapes/letters. I have also tried the same but with the frequency of the numbers in the ad. I have some letters with both methods, but nothing that comes together in an answer I can recognize

. I don't know if I'm on the right track, and if I am I don't know where I'm going wrong.

If you love something, set it free. If it flies around and chirps, it was probably a bird.

Don't give up on that first idea, but it might help to change your perspective. A right turn could bring things into focus.

The kids were right: the floor IS lava. But they were wrong about the fire-resistant properties of sofa pillows.

I am certain some are correct, but uncertain about others.
