Stuck On Profile Perfect Level 509?

This level trips players up because several clues rely on outside trivia, including flag details, geography, and regional nicknames, before you can even start placing tiles. On top of that, the score comparisons and neighbor rules have to be combined before any of the contestants lock into their columns.

Which Traits Belong To Miss Universe B Right Away?

If you want a solid anchor on the board, start with the three clues that point directly to Miss Universe B.

First, the clue stating that Miss B expresses her musical talent through movement pairs her with the cing / Comedy tile (representing dancing and comedy). Next, you are told that Miss B's gown shares a color with Argentina's flag, and another clue states that Peru's representative dazzles in a Golden gown. While light blue and white are the main stripes on Argentina's flag, the flag also features the golden Sun of May in the center. Since Gold is the only matching flag color among the gown tiles, Miss Universe B wears the Gold gown and represents Peru.

How Do The Score And Talent Clues Pair Up The Contestants?

Before placing the five women into columns, it is much easier to match each person to her exact score, gown, and talent off to the side. The five score tiles in this puzzle are 10, 8, 8, 7, and 6.

  • Valentina outshone the other competitors, which makes her the winner with the top score of 10.
  • Amara and Ji-Eun had tied scores, so they must take the two matching 8 tiles.
  • Freya's score is slightly higher than Emilia's, which gives Freya the 7 and leaves Emilia with the lowest score of 6.

You can also attach two more traits to Emilia right away. The clue about Emilia's gown combining shades from one color family points to the dual-colored Teal / Navy tile. The next clue states that the contestant in the Teal gown performs with a hefty instrument, pairing Emilia with the Piano.

Finally, the clue about the CQC (Close Quarters Combat) master says that the Martial Arts expert is either the winner (10) or the loser (6). Because Emilia has the lowest score of 6 and already plays the Piano, the Martial Arts talent must belong to the winner, Valentina.

How Do The Geography Clues Place Canada, Argentina, Finland, And Croatia?

With Peru locked into Miss Universe B, four columns remain (A, C, D, and E) for Canada, Argentina, Finland, and Croatia.

The clues state that the contestants from Canada and Argentina are neighbors, and that the Canadian's left neighbor is from an EU member state. Both Finland and Croatia are members of the European Union, while Peru and Argentina are not.

Because Peru occupies column B, Canada and Argentina cannot fit into column A and must sit next to each other somewhere across columns C, D, and E:

  • Canada cannot be Miss Universe C, because her left neighbor would be Peru in column B.
  • Canada cannot be Miss Universe E, because her neighbor Argentina would have to sit in column D, making Canada's left neighbor Argentina instead of an EU country.

That forces Canada into Miss Universe D, puts Argentina right next to her in Miss Universe E, and places an EU member state in Miss Universe C. The remaining EU country goes to Miss Universe A.

To separate the two EU countries, look at the clue stating that the Drawing expert comes from an archipelagic country. Neither Peru, Canada, nor Argentina is an archipelago, and Miss Universe A will end up taking Martial Arts, which puts the Drawing expert and Croatia (known for its archipelago of over a thousand islands) in Miss Universe C, leaving Finland in Miss Universe A.

How Do You Separate Emilia And Freya From The Other Contestants?

Now that you know cing / Comedy is in column B and Drawing goes into an archipelagic country in column A or C, look at what talents are left for Canada and Argentina in columns D and E. They can only use Martial Arts, Piano, or Singing.

We also know that Freya sits next to the contestant in the Teal gown (Emilia, who has the Teal / Navy gown, Piano, and a score of 6). Since Emilia cannot sit in column B (Gold gown), placing Emilia and Freya together in columns D and E gives Freya the Singing talent (the diva).

To get their order right, use the clue stating that the diva's score is enough to stay ahead of her neighbor. Freya has a score of 7. If she sat in column D, she would border column C (score of 8) and would not be ahead of her neighbor. Putting Emilia (6) in Miss Universe D and Freya (7) in Miss Universe E ensures that the diva in column E has a higher score than her only neighbor in column D.

Where Do Valentina, Ji-Eun, And Amara Go, And How Do The Gowns Finish?

With columns D and E filled by Emilia and Freya, only columns A, B, and C remain for Valentina (10, Martial Arts), Ji-Eun (8), and Amara (8).

Valentina has Martial Arts, so she cannot be Miss Universe B (cing / Comedy) or Miss Universe C (Drawing). She must be Miss Universe A. Since Valentina is to the left of Ji-Eun and Amara takes the Drawing spot in C, Ji-Eun goes to Miss Universe B and Amara takes Miss Universe C.

For the final three gowns (Ivory, Navy, and Red):

  • One clue states that the Ivory gown belongs to either the Finnish contestant (Miss Universe A) or the Porteños contestant (a nickname for people from Buenos Aires, Argentina, in Miss Universe E).
  • The clues do not provide a separate rule to distinguish the solid Navy gown, the Red gown, or the final tiebreaker for Ivory, so the solved grid places Ivory with Finland in Miss Universe A, Navy in Miss Universe C, and Red with Argentina in Miss Universe E.

One Clue You Should Not Overthink

"Amara and Ji-Eun's tied scores forced the judges to decide"

It is easy to read the second half of this clue and wonder if it means Amara or Ji-Eun won a tiebreaker, or if one has to sit to the left of the other. In reality, the phrasing about the judges is just flavor text. The only deduction you need from this clue is that Amara and Ji-Eun share the only duplicate score on the board, which gives both of them an 8.

Quick Answer Check

Before you finish, verify a few key pairs across your board. Miss Universe A should have Valentina, Finland, Martial Arts, and a 10. Miss Universe B should match Ji-Eun with Peru, Gold, and an 8. In the middle, Miss Universe C pairs Amara with Croatia and Drawing. Finally, make sure Emilia (with Piano, Teal / Navy, and a 6) sits in Miss Universe D to the left of Freya (with Argentina, Singing, and a 7) in Miss Universe E.
