There is a solution to the xkcd puzzle on the xkcd site, it's just the solution page isn't linked to from the puzzle page. You really have to want to find the solution to find it — via an appropriate google search. I urge you to resist doing so.

If people want to collaborate on a solution, I'm happy for such messages to be posted here, although I think it might be best to post them
Thoughts towards a solution:
