Q: Beautiful emptiness

SupersolverTo the world I am an oyster for it is my pearl. My name is given to the most flamboyant of girls. I travel a lot but not awfully well since I can only fit in Hilbert's hotel. I am always on the move, yet my waistline keeps expanding. Being studied by scholars is quiet demanding. What am I?

Q: V for Vendetta - Who am I?

incesterror21 This link here shows how many "Who am I?" riddles we already have on this site. Obviously, there are many of them and they're mostly riddles describing an object in some funny way. On checking the riddles, I noticed how similar they are most of the time. Even though some people here seem to di...

Q: Looking for another partition of 100

Bernardo Recamán SantosThe sum of ten, not necessarily different, positive integers is 100. If placed adequately on the vertices of this graph, two of them will be joined by a line if, and only if, they have a common divisor greater than 1 (i.e. they are not relatively prime). What are those ten integers?

 
11:58 AM
@Rubio START + [i]R[k]E[d] + K
 
Ohh nice

Q: Equivalent Grids

Deepak MahulikarThe two grids below are essentially equivalent. A specific color belongs to a specific catagory (four solid colors). Exception is the center box with 2 colors. Should be easy to fill out all the boxes with "?"

@Sp3000 This isn't just STAR TREK again is it?
 
Hah, nope
 
1:29 PM
It's probably Star Wars, but I'm not sure I see it
 
That was my other thought but can't make wordplay work

Q: The little scamp!

ForkliftMy Daughter She always does the right thing (the opposite is true as well; she's a good girl), and she'd be the first to tell you it's never right to jump a fence or steal a car. But it is right to obey traffic signs. Sometimes she picks up things she finds, but I don't worry. Usually it just g...

 
3:38 PM
@Techidiot hmmm.... doing average, will have to bowl well
 
Yeah..
 
Well more of those will help
 
If Shankar or Yuvi plays a knock like Dhoni did a couple of nights back, they can still come back with a winnable score
 
Hmm.. :-/
 
Sid
3:49 PM
Hm. I am watching the match today because I was bored with studies.
I am predicting KKR will win today and then, win the IPL whoever they play against.
 
@Sp3000 (just confirming that STAR TREK is indeed correct)
 
@sid they'll play rps
 
Sid
@rubio what was the def there? Program? Wasn't Star Trek a movie?
 
@Sid Was a TV show first in the 60s
TV Show = Program
 
Sid
Oh. I am too young to know about the 60s. :P
 
3:54 PM
Well. It was also a tv show in the 90s
Multiple, in fact
 
Kirk, Picard, Janeway, Archer?
 
That too
 
I think I forgot one, but it's hard to keep track
 
Sisko
DS9
 
@tech uuuh....
 
3:56 PM
Grrrr...
 
jordan can hit big. lets just hope
 
@Sid You took a wrong match :p This one is getting worse..
@BeastlyGerbil I've lost hopes..All eyes on Bhuvi & Rashid now. Especially Rashid
Gone..Boom..
 
oh forget what I said there ^^^
 
:p
Hits in a big hand :D
 
lets hope it gets rained off :P
 
4:00 PM
Haha.. And that could happen.. Forecast shows rains in Bengaluru
Unless, Duckworth lewis doesn't ruin it..
If only Warner had played... Sigh
 
Sid
Duckworth Lewis is one of the most confusing thing in whole of cricket. I have never understood that.
 
@Sid Try, fairplay award of IPL ;)
 
it just works out who will win. I glanced at the equation once and shut the tab immediately
 
It's difficult to understand but easy to predict..
(unless you have a close game)
Ooohhhh
RAIN?
 
hehehe
 
4:06 PM
@BeastlyGerbil ^
 
ach
128 is BAD
lol did you see that?!
 
Haha
Yeah.. He almost took off :p
 
Must be pretty windy
 
By looking at the weather, anything could happen..The wind helps bowlers as well..Reverse swing..Also, the spinners
 
Sid
Humph. If only we had some rain here...
 
4:08 PM
@Sid May I know where?
 
rain will mean quick outfield though
 
I'm in Pune, pre monsoon rains showed up last weekend.. Was quite heavy
 
Sid
The East of India. Good luck figuring where. :P
 
And slipping players @BeastlyGerbil
@Sid Ok.. Found the lat and long :p
Brb..cooking.
 
4:26 PM
@BeastlyGerbil since you seem to be an expert with imgur edits, how do you alter the alt text
 
the what?
and for what?
 
The hover text for images
alt text is the wrong thing
 
ah. click edit and where it says 'enter image description' you type what you want
 
Does that actually show the hover text?
It's not showing in the preview if it's supposed to
 
is this a question, or an answer?
 
4:29 PM
hover is title text, not alt text
 
whats either of those?
 
Yeah I want the title text/hover text, not alt
 
I don't know if StackExchange's Markdown allows that
 
I know you can do it in comments
 
oh, wait, you can
[ text ] ( link " title " )
but without the spaces I think
 
4:32 PM
[![City][2]][2]
That's what it's like inline
 
yeah ditch that
that when you upload it
 
Oh gotta do a manual inline one then?
 
you can do it differently
 
it doesn't show pic, but does have hover text
 
4:34 PM
ahh, yeah, that worked
 
Oh it does
 
Sid
TIL about a guy called Nathan Rotschild.
 
@n_palum do you want the picture itself to be shown?
 
Sid
Fake news is real, guys. They can earn you billions.
 
![Description](URL "Hover Description")
Yeah I do want it showing
 
4:35 PM
done it!
Upload it normally
After the i.stack.imgur.com/xxxxx.png
type "hover"
with a space between the g and the "
 
Lol I just told you I got it
 
And it works
 
That one above I listed works a-ok
 
I found a different way :P
 
Welllllll
 
4:36 PM
plus my ways easier
@tech woo massive rain! :P
ooh new puzzle
 
@BeastlyGerbil I wouldn't be asking for no reason :P
 
although you kind of just told us how to solve it :P
 
Meh
Not really
 
what does that city name say?
 
It's not a super hard one.. just more testing the waters of drawing puzzles
 
4:39 PM
YRANIB ?
 
Yep
 
er ok
ah got it :P
rot 13 'LENAVO'
oh wait no
its BINARY backwards
I'm dumb
 
Hahaha

Q: What photos do I love?

n_palumThis one may be my favorite... I tend to linger, unable to stop admiring it... I wonder what that person is thinking down there... Ahh my favorite city... a classic... With summer coming up this brings back great memories... Can't wait to get s'more of these shots... What type of photos ...

 
@BeastlyGerbil We can wait until 12.58 am to start a five over game, for which KKR's target will be 41, and 1.20 am to get in a Super Over. If none of that is possible, Sunrisers win on account of finishing higher on the points table
(Times in IST)
It's 10.18 PM now
 
4:48 PM
nice
so just keep raining for a few hours
 
haha..3 hrs more..
 
They want to restart after midnight? Is that usual?
 
@n_palum well, the bottom picture is HEE in morse but not sure if thats relevant. I think the buildings may be binary but cant get anything out of it
 
@Sconibulus Yeah.. It's a day-night match. So, that happens
 
yeah there are 8 buildings, binary most definitely
 
4:51 PM
Odd/Even?
Or window no window
 
not sure
I'm trying stuff out
 
Not confirming/denying yet.
 
if we go window no window you get 01110011 00101111 which is 's/' but not sure
FXL s/ HEE?
unlikely
and there may be more to pic 1
 
@BeastlyGerbil that seems like not enough symbols
 
@BeastlyGerbil kind of a red herring I'll say.
 
4:57 PM
I imagine the answer will be found somewhere here
 
@BeastlyGerbil It is not
 
note: FXL is rot13 for SKY
is that the final answer? :P
 
I get 41 floors total, so we're probably not going between buildings...
 
@BeastlyGerbil You can get a hint to that in the photo
 
maybe the fact that 'binary' is backwards is a clue that the binary numbers are backward
@n_palum well it does depict the night sky
do all the pics contain hints like that?
 
5:00 PM
Every thing has at least 1 clue to it, text or visually
 
Sid
@beastly apparently the rain is going to last only 15 or 30 minutes. Looks bleak for SRH.

5:20 PM
@n_palum hmmm... I wonder if that answer is correct?? :P
 
What answer? That comment?
 
the answer to your question
 
my puzzle? AlwaysConfused's?
 
Yeah no, not at all

Q: Hired by the Council of Magic - Language Barrier at the Circle

qwertyu63Hired by the Council of Magic - Language Barrier at the Circle: After your two successful visits to call upon the aid of the Council of Magic, the Council has called in one of the favors the King of Puzzlington owes them for their help. As your luck would have it, the favor they have requested is...

 
6:25 PM
@n_palum aha! Think I solved it. Just slightly unsure on the last one
 
@BeastlyGerbil If you say so :P
 
I swear its morse. But can't get the word I am expecting
 
What are you expecting
 
the word SEA
 
Nope
 
6:28 PM
I'm pretty sure the answer is SKYS/???
Thought it was sea....
 
S/ is wrong, so is SEA
 
ohh
was kinda thinking why is it SKYS and not SKIES :P
 
;) Yeah not that
 
hmm if its reversed then perhaps it is /S instead? Or am I completely wrong with those characters?
 
Totally wrong
 
6:38 PM
skyscapes seems plausible
 
@BeastlyGerbil The comment I left on that other answer will help you confirm your first part
 
@BeastlyGerbil Game is still on :)
 
@Sconibulus yeah that looks good. Just need to know why. Could even be skyscrapers. Anything that starts with sky
so the final answer has an explanation...
@n_palum oh the stars join to form 13?
 
skyscrapers is less plausible, because there are only buildings in one picture
 
@BeastlyGerbil I just mean you can determine without brute forcing them all
 
6:49 PM
there are 13 plusses in the sky
 
are that too
 
@BeastlyGerbil The ones on the left are scattered and just let it = 13, but the two more clustered ones are a 1 and 3
 
I don't know why we're supposed to rotate though
 
@Sconibulus Because it's a cipher :P
 
rot 13 FXL = SKY
@n_palum did you mean the ones on the right ^^^^
 
6:51 PM
Yeah the right
 
01001010 Gives J (taking heights of buildings low and high)
 
actually, the bottom one is probably morse, -. . or NE
so I'd roughly expect the middles to be " SCE" ?
 
SKYSCENE ?
 
@Sconibulus Close but no
 
what for? the middle or the end?
 
6:55 PM
oh, LI for SKYLINE
 
Middle
 
so how do we get LI....
 
@BeastlyGerbil ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
just adding that for reference
BINARY LI: 01001100 01001001
hmmm
how do we get that...
 
01110011 00101111
 
6:56 PM
yeah that gives s/
tried that
 
backwards would be 11110100 11001110
 
that doesn't give anything, also tried that :P
 
we might also want to invert the 1s and 0s, because windows are empty space
 
I'll mention again, the number of buildings is not going to help
 
00001011 00110001
 
6:58 PM
I can see two shades there
Kind of shadow(but could be just art)
 
@Techidiot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
might be light then shadow or vice verse, but yeah could just be art
is that a yes?
 
I think so.
 
Dunno
