For number 58, I'm still missing the first and sixth letters; if I can get just one more letter I'm certain I can get it. those questions are so ambiguous though...

ffutahw,
How many years of bad luck do you get when you brake something that gives you a reflection of yourself?

zarii: can you perceive this as a board game? the big one being the board and the small one being the dice. i can't quite get to what i want to do. :confused: :confused:

Just wanted to bounce the ones I have for 58 off of you guys, let me know if any of these are flat out wrong...

<
1) his reflection was shattered...
7: With Zariis assistance, seven years of bad luck for breaking a mirror

2) count the winds...
4: The four winds, north, south, east, west.

3) the wounds of our savior...
5: The wrists, the ankles, and the side.
Note: Trying 6 and 7 here as well to see if the crown of thorns and the whipping of the back are included. Generally is considered 5.

4) Optsprezece
18- Romanian for eighteen, simple.

5) It is perfect and the smallest of its kind...
1- going with 1 here, don't know what else it would be.6) If you throw me away, this burden will be lifted.
Not a damned clue.

7) misfortune.
13- thirteen is an/the unlucky number.>

Am I flat out wrong on any of these?

about getting to the squares of hell -.- the answer is right under your face.. it's darn obvious once you think of it

Why am I always missing the obvious ones? :mad:
 
  • #2,042
number 2 is wrong..and so is number 5(use google at that one)
number 3 is 5 so don't use six or seven.

You're just overthinking them :P

You're right. :smile:

That x thing is only for the second part of the riddle, isn't it? Or is it also useful for getting all that letter stuff you are talking about?
 
  • #2,046
boxcutter: is someone even close to cracking lvl 61 from what you see in the logs?

Second part.. but let's just think about it..If the source code says "This is the first image" what image are you then searching for to move along?

I propose a strike. Our demands are casual fridays and a pinball machine for the break room.
 
  • #2,052
Sounds good to me *Evillaugh*
 
  • #2,053
zarii: what have you got so far? anything logical and realistic going there? from my concepts, i get these: RTYBNSOE, DSUSIACI, IBMCAGKA, and many other hilarious combinations which i don't dare log. :smile:

you people don't have to worry so much. first of all i only see the logs by IPnumber and I would never know who is who. second: thirteen thousand people have tried this game so far, I'm not sure how many are still playing but at least that is how many unique hits i have had on the first riddle. whatever the number of people playing right now is, i get lots and lots and lots of guesses in the logs and there is no way i can keep track of it all, besides i only check the logs every now and then to see how people are doing.

i haven't checked the logs but if i look at your posts on this forum none of the words and combinations you have come up with have been particularily close. perhaps the way you obtained those letters were close to what the "actual" way is, but unless you do it completely correct, you will not get the right word. however IF you do it correctly, you will have no doubt that that is the right way, since you will get a very straight forward, understandable word...

I feel doomed...

zarii dear we have hope. o:)

I'm not quite to 61. I'm on 59 and I'm trying to find the map I used before :-p

x is where we should start. but how do you do that from its position? the little grid should be the guide. can the star be a disguised x? possibly. I am still certain that there are 8 letters, the 4th&5th is a double.

we need to think scientifically...:rolleyes:

unfortunately, I am going to bed in 30 mins. o:)
