I like puzzles...
Rules: simply meditate on the codes, and see if you can decipher the output. There are 3 codes to crack. Feel free to guess, I'll pm you if you get it right.
However If you are certain you have correctly cracked any one of them - please pm me unless you really want to spoil a little fun.
Clues
A is really really hard, but 'technically breakable' if you observe the pattern and relate it to something you look at every day - and indeed you will no doubt observe it, and miss it repeatedly. Cracking this one requires intense focus and concentration
B is something that grows every day, and is not difficult to decipher, but once you've got it you only win if you post a picture that reflects its omnipresence in nature. Once the number has gone above the value of 1000, it resets and will start anew but will grow in exactly the same way, and still a picture is required to win.
C is easy if you reflect on games you may have come across in your youth. You have to respond to the codes output in the same format; however you only get one guess per day. When you manage to get 17 out of 100 guesses right - you have cracked it and won).
The answers for C are different for each person that responds.
So here are the first codes:
A. False
B. 4
C. C6
Comments
Sounds like a joke.
It's not a joke @AldrisTorvalds... ... Care to be the first to take a stab in the dark at C.). It really is supposed to be a fun thread, like a crossword or sudoku, only the puzzler gives the puzzled something more to interact with (conscious intelligence), only you don't know all the rules yet, but patience is required, and a pencil, ruler, eraser and scrap of paper won't go amiss
So here are today's codes GMT; and like I said no matter how hard you focus and concentrate, you may still miss A. though the answer is right here and now.
A. True
B. 4
C. J10
Yeah no I think you're just messing with us. Just gibberish. I'll pass and work on something constructive (I'm learning Java, mmm!), but thanks anyway.
no not messing, just having fun
I am not being as enigmatic as this either:
A. True
B. 4
C. M28
A. Self?
C. Battleships?
Don't know on A
B.
C. Battleship. I'd rather play Candyland instead if that's alright.
Todays codes:
A. True
B. 8
C. B1
@zero: good guesses (A wrong, B, that was pure luck (surely), can you post another picture that really demonstrates you know?, C that sunk me
@person: I would be surprised if anyone got A in 3 days! B No C. candyland is good
what da-fuq....?!
Seconded. It all sounds like gibberish to me.
nevermind
Seriously, why don't you just ask us to guess what you're thinking instead, would be the same difficulty.
I have a feeling this is so damn obvious, Captain Stupid here, can't see it for looking....
@federica Feels more to me like there's key information missing. I at least like to understand what the puzzle is that I'm solving! I've only recently ingested the line "The answers for C are different for each person that responds.", which makes it even more enigmatic.
So the answer to C MUST be, "My name is {name}"......
Cracked it!!
No @federica that's like saying your enlightened. Lol
Isn't how amazing how when someone posits puts a few puzzles/riddles out there that it is greeted with doubt and suspicion.
All you have to do is read the op and observe the patterns. Things will become apparent. I'll also post the odd clue. It is just meant to be fun. and 'mentertaining'. lol
Today's codes :
A false. -
B 12.
C A5 - someone has already got C btw., but I'm well on the way to winning at the moment.... 96 moves to go...
Today's codes:
A True
B 3
C F5
Today's codes:
A False - yes it's hard but still everything you need is here on the page you are reading, just a little focus and attention to detail.
B Perhaps I have been stating it wrong all along and trying to be a little too cryptic... and am going to revise to the naturally stated series: So starting again (but now I expect the pictures to come pouring in:
1 (;-)
C D1> @AldrisTorvalds said:
@anataman No idea what you're talking about. If the only correct answer anyone got was by accident, I think this is getting really silly. Maybe you see things in a special way and this is a futile attempt?
'Hiopefully' this is making it easier to understand, The answers to C (tut), become a game if you want it to, so each person can choose to play or not. Riddles can be very frustrating I know, but that's what makes them, well attractive to certain kinds of minds), and as this site is one where one peruses lines of thought and discussion related to buddhism, I thought I'd post something of a little challenge when things become a little dry, or unsavoury, as a distraction, to distract from the distracted... Just mess in wit ya.
@Zero, got it when he posted the pic of the spiders web, I just want to confirm it was not by accident. There are many, many other examples. Posting a picture of something natural when I have stated that it is naturally omnipresent, does not reveal you have mastered the riddle... Perhaps what would be more revealing of your knowledge and understanding is if you could PM me the scientists name who is associated with the series of numbers..
Post something that I cannot deny as being essentially true to the answer I am seeking, and yes, you get the trophy. This will happen in the next week for question B... I am certain, now!
A True
B. 11
C. E9
A False
B 112
C C3
A nothing
B meta "not metta"
C thumbs up looking down
@Grayman
A Wrong
B No Mettha ha
C What you talking about Willis? ... :hrm: ...
A answers
Make a thumbs up point your thumb to someones face and ask them the number they see. They will say I C6.
C6 was the first clue and I was just having a little fun with you.
Reeled you in once you were in focus!
A no there are no real answers - but the answer to this is real... and today it is false!
B ... as above: 112
C Todays clue is really B3
Oh I forgot to mention that the rules were my rules or did I? lol
A) that depends if you agree with first or second statement more. Using soliphism I agree with the second making the conclusion unreal. For this reason I am sticking to nothing as an answer and because true is already used and what fun is that?
1000 is the final clue
C) your running out of childrens vitamins
At least I c u v a sns v umr
A: Neither/both
B:
C: O28 (That's the letter O, not the number 0).
@MisterCope A NO B Nice! C O2B3 lol - er I mean wrong (out of range)
Today's codes:
A False
B 1123
C E10
A: True
B: I thought it reset after 1000? Anyway:
C: C4
Yes @MisterCope, beautiful isn't it.
I realised it would be too difficult in the way I presented it, so changed the rules. I am allowed to do that after all, and it threw some off the scent.
Are you playing at C?
Oooh close but first try is X
A false
B 11235
C D2
For C. is A5 a hit?
Yes, you sunk his/her battle ship. You have a ways to go to get your single patty buger upgraded to a double cheese burger at burger king.
A is true if the number of the date is prime? (one is not prime)
Tues 6 seems to buck that trend
Oh Well done @Jeffrey ... :thumbsup: ...!
@Zero 6 is not prime, and A5 is a hit, but I'm nowhere near sunk. primes in the date range: 2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31 all these were true
I've been rumbled, I'll give even less away next time I pose a riddle or 2... ...! lol
C - D2
Gator
My mistake. Looking on mobile device and with all the scrolling through incorrectly logged may 6 as true...
Miss @jeffrey
Gator - I'm looking into that one, I'm sure it is right.
A TRUE
B 112358
C A7 -
A False
B 11235813
C G1
1123581321345589 etc., and I ain't fib'ing (or am I?)...
No your not fibbing - but you needed to post a picture
All I have left now is my battleship and I'm winning this one!
G2
What...
The actual....
F.......
Oh I forgot that too. Here:
