Nicely solved, Dej Mar. The hardest part about setting these kinds of puzzles is tempering the difficulty. Thought this could be quite easy for those experienced in these types, especially in this format. Was hoping it might spur some interest in those less familiar. But hey, put it out there to be solved which you did post-haste. Hope you enjoyed.

PETAL - if 0 then F is the first letter as that would rule out the TA(L) from FATAL - 1 and the first A is also ruled out from PARER - 1 which is the established E.

Here's a link to a similar one which also has a link to a wiki article explaining how these work -

Ah, BUT therein lies the RUB. -
i stand corrected and bow to the k-man. could not visualize if the fact that a balanced scale could mean either an equal number of normal balls and/or an equal number of heavy balls per side might change the number of possibilities.

hey gang - thanks to all for the keen responses. sorry for the delay and now brevity in my response. been working as of late in a location without internet service and dont yet do the mobile thing. still not what am after for these last two unsolved clues (or the final answer) but think you're getting closer? also, hopefully as encouragement, dont think you will be disappointed when these last two do fall.

hey Wilson - I salute your ever wit but not what am looking for. the first line here is rather cryptic. also, there's a key word in this one as well as the first which have not been tested or at least been underserved as of yet.

hey there M M - good thoughts both but neither are what am hoping for. sorry, please come back.

have not read thru the whole thread so do not know if the following has been guessed or already refuted but...

hey benjer3 - sorry, not what I have in mind

hey t_l - got to say no. that first line of the first one is still illusive to all. could be considered a triple entendre? do like the bean curd/tofu response.
