rootbear75 Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 is it just me? or is anyone else confused by this?
Arry Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Posted June 28, 2008 is it just me? or is anyone else confused by this? Does anyone even want to try this riddle? I could spoil it if nobody wants to.... I'll give a day to hear back from people then I'll just post the answer if nobody wants to try.
FMBI Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 is it just me? or is anyone else confused by this? Does anyone even want to try this riddle? I could spoil it if nobody wants to.... I'll give a day to hear back from people then I'll just post the answer if nobody wants to try. You call that a riddle? It's pure idiocy. Well, 99.99% pure, anyway.
Samapico Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 All the spelling mistakes and capital letters confuse me... are they part of the riddle or what?
JDS Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 riddle is what the riddle is, maybe you are just easily confused...
»Lynx Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 I only do riddles made by literate people, that don't need to be 7 paragraphs long. :/ -Lynx
Arry Posted June 29, 2008 Author Report Posted June 29, 2008 (edited) The riddle is only 5 lines long and it's signified by the line that says "herr is the truth" The reason that signifies the true riddle is because it says it's the truth and the method of deducing the true riddle is with the spelling mistakes. That is... every line that starts with a mispelled word (double cononant at the end) is part of the riddle. Everything else is just crap I threw in there as signified by the line "along with the rest of that junk I threw in" which appropriately got this post thrown into the trash bin. lulz cause it's about 70% garbage. The real riddle is then this:Herr is the truth. Y. HereIss anyone going to figure where to throw in Minas' sign.Anotherr way to say "sir"Cluee me in when you arrive at themysterYY OF negative double OH S***! !!you better cut this ****** **** out!! Obviously the last line contains the name of the chat channel, the remaining lines just give cluesFirst step is you need to cut the astericks out, you're left withmysterYY OF negative double OH S Since the double Y was falsehood (because Herr is the truth. Y.) you have to take out the extra YAnother way to say "sir" is "mister" which is really another way to spell "mystery"Obviously the Minas' sign gets thrown in in place of the word "negative"That leaves you with:misterY OF - double OH S Since chat channels don't have spaces you obviously need to take the spaces outmisterYOF-doubleOHS Then you need to figure out what doubleOHS is.... which just means two "o"sThe two o's make the sign for infinity (which was hinted at in my signature)So the Final answer to the riddle and the chat channel is:misterYof-oo Which could be read as:Mister Y of -infinityORMystery of negative infinity Which is obviously just some clever bullcrap I made up, but it sounded pretty cool so I decided to make a riddle and post it on the forums. Nobody ever showed up on the chat channel and now I've got to leave subspace again. Yes, I'm leaving again for a time. My real nick is Arry (oh hai linear-key!) which is why hyperspace wasn't random. And as for X'terrania, he thinks I'm Katrina so I made Arry's profile look like a Katrina profile. gg There's only one thing left to be said and it's already posted under my signature for Arry: "Did the primary buffer panel just fall off my gorram ship for no apparent reason? This is how it is. Anybody doesn't wanna fly with me any more, this is your port of harbor. There's a lot of fine ways to die. I ain't waiting for the Alliance to choose mine. I mean to confound these bungers. Take my shot at getting to Miranda. Maybe find something I can use to get clear of this. There's been no war here and no terraforming event. The environment is stable. It's the Pax. It's a fair bet the Alliance knows about Mr. Universe. They're gonna see this coming. No. They're not going to see this coming. " If you thought I was insane before you should try understanding me now. Ok, good game guys, cya around after I take care of some things in real life. By the way, I think JDS wins cause he's like the only person who really believed it was a riddle. Everyone else just was blowing smoke in my topic Lynks definitely lost cause he thought he had to read the bible and Harry potter and he also didn't see that the length and the spelling mistakes were part of the riddle. GG JDS WINS! Oh and FYI the only thing Unix knew was that I was Arry, lulz, she never solved the riddle or joined the chat channel bai bai -yams Edited June 29, 2008 by Shrouded Cnight
Samapico Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 I have a part win since I suspected the mistakes to be part of the riddle
L.C. Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 By the way, I think JDS wins cause he's like the only person who really believed it was a riddle. Everyone else just was blowing smoke in my topic sad.gif Lynks definitely lost cause he thought he had to read the bible and Harry potter and he also didn't see that the length and the spelling mistakes were part of the riddle. GG JDS WINS!I believed it was a riddle...I was just waiting to see if anyone would have the brains enough to figure out that it was indeed a riddle rather than arrogantly, ignorantly, and "!@#$%^&*holely" reply with a flame/troll post. I think that was a very brilliant riddle. It's a shame that the majority of people here are too !@#$%^&*hat to be able to take a simple thread and treat it the way they did. Too caught up in their selfish ways to take honest time to try and understand someone elses point of view rather than their own.. :\
FMBI Posted June 30, 2008 Report Posted June 30, 2008 (edited) God, you're a re!@#$%^&*. That isn't a riddle, that's an obscure brain-teaser made by an illiterate nut. edit - I sounded pretty harsh, didn't I? Edited June 30, 2008 by Finland My BorgInvasion
