    Default Event II thread

    i think tradition has it that a discussion thread runs for each event, although we can keep it all in one thread if you guys like. eh, here's my thoughts on this one.

    Someone you dont know at Ignorance Denied has posted a riddle for you to solve.

    Find the riddle, figure out the answer, and prove your worthyness.
    someone you don't know might be the anon account perhaps. yesterday the anon account posted "Yes,... again,....and again,... and yet again.

    And there may even be more than one at the same time sometimes."

    seems quite cryptic for a riddle, but ya know. now ignorance denied has visited the anon user account, which is interesting.

    worthiness is spelt incorrectly in the post above, might be a typo, might not. can't see it being important but who knows.
    Oh, judge, your damn laws: the good people don't need them and the bad people don't follow them, so what good are they? - Ammon Hennacy.

    In all history there is no war which was not hatched by the governments, the governments alone, independent of the interests of the people, to whom war is always pernicious even when successful - Leo Tolstoy.

    Nice catch,...someone is paying attention, especially for someone that never uses caps in the beginning of a sentence.

    so it's not a clue then!!
    caps are over rated.

    Pie, I thought of as "someone you dont know" as well.
    I searched for all posts and think I found the riddle here. I already posted my guess in the answer thread...

    Wait, Pdoke, you posted an answer in the answer thread? I just did too, but I can't see yours. Maybe that is on purpose?

    But yes, that is what I found as well. Does anyone else think the constant abuse of punctuation in this game is distracting? I'm a stickler for editing.

    Oh, and does anyone remember this thread?

    http://www.ignorancedenied.com/showthread.php?t=5000

    It's the same statue, the same picture even, at the beginning of this thread, as appears when you click on the right-hand dog-ear now. Must be something about that picture that says "time for a puzzle"!

    That is intentional.

    You can only see your own threads in that forum.

    I was very confused about that earlier. From the main forum, I could see that there were two threads in that from but when i clicked on it i could only see my own... I guess that makes sense though, i was wondering when it said unlimited number of prizes what would keep people from just copying other people's answers.

    Freenina, good catch on remembering where that pic was on here before. I knew I had seen it too but had no idea where, after clicking on that link I obviously remembered. I was a junior-mod way back when and helped out with the initial planning of that game before i disappeared for a few years...

    Well, that makes sense. And I see that I got it right! Although now, I feel undeserving of the title, since I disappeared for a few years too.

    That game was actually planned, Pdoke? Was I right about the composer referenced in vincenT's profile? It sort of ended abruptly and I was disappointed. :P

    And you are deserving, and we are glad to see you back.

    That game was planned, but we had several things that prevented it from being brought forth. The old software, changing servers, etc, etc.

    Rather than continue with high risk of logistical issues cropping up, that game was put on hold. It was with much regret that we did not bring it back.

    yeah, it was planned... at least, i know the start of it was. I honestly don't remember very much about it, and all my notes disappeared when i moved.

    I feel the same way about not deserving it. but hey, I'll take it. Hopefully the next round will be up soon.
