coopRiddle 1

deleteddeletedalmost 8 years ago

I decided to launch a new series of forum games.

You can comment a word in the thread. (unlimited times) I will quote the comment with a number in a comment after a while. (No more than 1 words in the comment)

The winner is whoever finds the logic behind the number. (You may post the logic as an additional comment, but it won't get quoted unless the logic is correct)

This riddle is just for fun - no prizes will be given!

Good luck!

Hint: Sometimes the answer is different for different users. So checking responses to others can be the trick!

Words have to be 3 or more letters in length. You can use letters a-z and A-Z only

  • Round 1 winner: Blister (Page 1 - Page 5)
  • Round 2 winner: Blister (Page 5 - Page 8)
  • Round 3 winner: Bannanaxd (Page 8 - Page 22)
  • Round 4 winner: Birbtales (Page 23 - Page 27)
  • Round 5 (by Pinks) started in Page 27.

The output is calculated by:

number of letters in word + number of letters in username + page number the comment is on

hence why the "base" numbers keep changing, from 49 to now being 53

Doesnt work with me, when i said my own username

Pinks is 5 letters, username pinks has 5 letters in common, unlike Greys/Mile who have 1 letter in common (but Mile is shorter than Greys) and Torre who has 0 in common.

So it is name-related, word-word related, and negatively interrelated.

It relates to how many of those words are in our username?

allright, so my burn and mole are at 62+x

so

Torreador
62+x : burn, mole
61+x : joy, jog, lame, bright, flame, flood, blitz, frost, mound, pound, round, throw, threw, crwth, fight, might, right, sight, row, insight, torreador, drizzling
59 +x : pinks, pink, abc......xyz, hi, ho

the word Pinks is on 58+x for Greys, 57+x for Mile, 59+x for Torreador, 54+x for Pinks herself

dude at this point i'm out. It's obviously related to the letters in place and to the person saying it.
The differene between Pinks>Pinks and Greys>Pinks points to different letters than the word having greater numbers, but i can't verify that with my words (right/sight). even if it checks the position then my abcdE... would trigger it.

Yeah Torr I already suggested that logic on page 49 and he said I was close but that wasn't it.

Ok, so most of my words are actually 61+x, with x being word length.

However, my first few words were 59+x :
-pinks
-pink
-abc......xyz
-hi
-ho

Spirit has most words in 57+x, except a few words on 58+x : burn, burnt, turn, mole
