New Puzzle Coming Soon!

#1 Post by burner » Tue Nov 19, 2024 10:18 pm

This is really the first official puzzle I'm planning to create. Congratulations to the winners, and all who participated on my previous puzzle! I would now like to introduce an award for solving these puzzles, but I haven't decided what. Maybe it could be similar to twenty questions where winning players will create it. It is a bit of a time investment though, so that may not work. Let me know your thoughts! Although... In retrospect... With idealized population growth, the answer may present itself to the winner!

Don't worry about that last sentence. It's probably not important...

Are you not seeing it? It should be in the off topic forum.

Are you a bot?

There is no new thread by you, in the "Off Topic" forum, in a considerable period of time.

Please make yourself clear, or stop wasting everyone's time, for fuck's sake.

I apologize for the inconvenience. Please understand that I am being cryptic on purpose. I plan to give hints as necessary, and I was just allowing time to see what people figure out.

Admittedly, the puzzle is poorly designed, and there likely isn't currently enough information to solve it. I'm just waiting to see how things unfold for a while.

I presume there is a sort of code in one of his forum posts somewhere, and that starts the puzzle. As to what it is, I'm unsure, but it's out there.

A valid hypothesis. I can't figure out what the "idealized population growth" (exponential growth?) is referring to but it's an unusual enough of a thing to say that it seems like it must be important, especially with his later post here to ignore that sentence. That being said, I was totally off the mark with a lot of his other hints the last time, so who knows...

Some famous Italian mentioned it in an old book he wrote.

You haven't posed a puzzle.

You are just desperate for attention.

What a sad life you must have.

21 questions would be more appropriate than 20 questions for burner's puzzle.

Thank you. I hope you have a nice day. I genuinely do. If there is anything I have said or done that has offended you, please let me know. I am not trying to hurt anyone's feelings. I would like to understand what prompted these comments, if you wouldn't mind sharing, so that any outstanding issues can be resolved.
