Good morning!
 
 
1 hour later…
8:43 AM
hi avi
@avigrail wie geht's?
 
Hi
Mir geht's gut und dir?
 
ja, wie gewohnt
 
cyanide
 
cjahnide
:D
 
haha nice one
How far did you get?
 
8:47 AM
it's impenetrable..
and my system is traumatised I think
 
That's good :)
 
like Bart Simpson with the electric muffin
so, it seems not to be a word-builder this time
 
As I recommended dont do it on mobile
 
that's a hint isn't it..
 
More like a condition
you will understand in the end. But for now dont bother
 
8:49 AM
i see..
so.. the first question I really have..
"The Doll, the Owl, the Dwarf and the Bear" what are these "things"
I'm guessing they each represent something
 
Maybe they are just pets
you never know
 
"looking down on their cruel fate..."
 
it really is a sad riddle
But you better use my recommendations in the preface
history has it my recommendations are useful
 
indeed..
so it is a literal execution it seems..
 
The riddle is so easy because there are three ways to solve it.
The best way is to find the clue in the pre
 
8:55 AM
you don't really want an image do you..
 
Yes, those painters are stupid haha
But this bear gave me jolly good time yesterday
 
lol...
a unique selfmade picture with nothing else...
very suspicious avi...
"But first you should put your smart phone away and read!" this is most suspicious of all...
 
It will all work in the end
that's the funny thing about it
nexolute: anything you say sound like a clue to me. I don't know what to believe anymore!
haha cyanide coming in
 
How about the title
 
9:04 AM
also very suspicious..
 
do you like it?
 
I think you managed to make one where everything is suspicious :p
"Maybe you double your speed this time"...
 
I'll give you a scenario that will help (if you want
 
oh please god yes
 
ok
imagine there are 10 boxes on the floor
you need 1 second to pick one
when you have 10 seconds, how many boxes can you pick?
 
9:06 AM
10
 
vey good
now, when you have only 5 seconds
how many can you pick?
 
You seem to be next einstein!
 
Now if you cant double speed (as I suggest) you will be left there with only taken half of it
 
9:07 AM
yes
 
now what happened if you took only half of it
try to find out
 
half of what?
oh never mind... let me see
 
That's the question :)
Darn those pictures are hilarious. I will print them
 
i found the irregular indentation suspicious too..
 
You did?
Tell me
 
9:20 AM
well it's weird where you chose to put lines breaks...
 
plus, I recommend not to use a smart phone
well, there must be something
 
to me that means I should use a smart phone :p
 
Please don't
I don lie withing pre :P
 
ok.. :p
sure you don't..
anyway, ok . I didn't really think that was a lead anyway
 
As i said it's more a condition due to the break of the lines you mentioned earlier
 
9:28 AM
i knew it..
 
<noclue> you will like it
What did you try so far?
I need you to share the pain
 
lol
I'm getting something to eat
brb
 
Is that a clue?:p
enjoy
 
Mew
9:44 AM
wats dis chat bout
 
riddles. why are you asking?
 
Mew
Just saw this chat and I wondered if it linked to a specific question or sometin
 
"easiest riddle..." oh dear — d'alar'cop 1 hour ago
 
Mew
Her's some music to enjoy while solving riddles youtube.com/watch?v=5s1Wk-g-Doo
 
g-doo?
 
Mew
9:47 AM
dunno what that is
 
last part of your link
 
Mew
just some cool beats
yeah
i don't know the significance of it though
 
didgeredoo maybe
 
Mew
there's no didgerdoo
 
too bad
 
9:49 AM
hi again avi
 
salut
 
alles gut?
hi Mew
 
Eh oui :)
 
ausgezeichnet
so, I tried a naive "halving"...
it didn't really help
 
nice idea I might use that in the future :D
 
9:51 AM
indeed..
I'm glad I can be of service :p
 
poison is useles without a victim
 
how sickly profound
so I'm not even on the right track with that :(
 
you are correct with halving it
your technique may be bad
 
e.g. a unique, selfmade solution on it.
 
Didn't expect it to be this hard to see. But seems like I did great work :D
Why would somebody break lines in a weird way?
 
10:02 AM
to get certain words to align
 
your ideas a brilliant. I need to write them all down!
but your are very close actually
 
so that's not it either :p
the cyanide is setting in
 
I cant say no to this
What are you planning to do with this aligning thing?
 
a few thought..
ich konnte die erste X Worte from the front of jener Satz nehmen...
 
you get the idea
but that's not exactly it
 
10:13 AM
or..
:p
 
what did you find?
 
ich konnte jener zwiete Satz skippen :p
 
oh this sounds incredibly nice :D
(that's it)
 
I saw it :D
my poor heart
 
i hope you liked it
 
10:17 AM
well it's not cracked yet
of course, as always it's awesome :p
i now have 4 possible interpretations...
 
Oh wow that was fast
 
oh no, I think we're talking about something different..
 
you found the object?
 
I mean..
I have 4 possible versions of the real clue
<include blank lines> or not
start from 1 or 2
 
as I said there are three ways to find what you need
it's very easy
 
10:19 AM
i hate it when you say that :p
so does the line about the Bear etc have a real meaning?
I mean... muss ich it skippen
 
I see what you are doing
you took the wrong way my friend
the riddle is not starting with at that line
 
starts with "standing" then?
 
Starts with "Are" obviously :)
You should know that
you started after fall once :D
 
:p
thanks... I mean after that
 
it's even more funny
don't you agree
 
10:27 AM
there's a "sad" tag :p
 
that's due to the massive killing ahead
 
how about this question.... the thing is the same without the blank lines right?
 
blanks mean nothing to me
 
oh god..
 
hahaha
Remember when I told you this riddle is giving me a hard time while creating it?
 
10:31 AM
yes..
Spiegel..
 
Very good indeed
You solved half of it now haha
Almost forgot. You remember the smart phone thing?
you understand now
 
no actually..
 
well, this wont work the same way on a smart phone
formatting reasons
 
yes, I mean I thought formatting... but it's not 100% clear to me yet
the main part has 2 lines really..
I only keep one I'm thinking
 
Well, I think you can do it from here :)You have the object and the riddle. That's all you need
 
10:40 AM
lol
Cjahnide und Einfachkeit
 
Good one :D
 
well I have no idea what to do :p
lol
a unique, selfmade picture with nothing else but the
solution on it. Please use colors with contrast to the
background color (for obvious reasons, I appreciate).
this makes more sense now
 
Yes, you found the object. Now you can start working on the riddle
no need for the preface anymore
 
oh i see..
so I actually have the solution really..
 
What do you mean?
 
10:49 AM
never mind... I thought that object was going to end up being the solution :p
 
how dare you
 
haha... yes, how lazy
I know :p
 
So I'm going to get myself something to eat. Have fun with your new gadget :p
 
ok
see you later avi
:)
 
Off he goes
 
11:21 AM
here comes the pain
 
11:40 AM
OK, let the last phase of cyanide poisoning begin
:p
 
It may be deadly
What have you found out so far?
 
I've found out that I have no idea what the target is
 
nice
 
I'm pretty sure the solution will be an object... or possibly one of the 4
 
Good guess
 
11:43 AM
a stupid idea I had was about the owl being able to spin its head around ;p
:p
 
funny :D
 
but I know you don't do things like that
 
yes, there is more
 
it seems like the "double your speed" clue has been forgotten
yes, we found something..
.but what about that other idea..
I'm done with the <pre> right?
 
yes
The pre is only there to make you find the object
 
11:45 AM
and does the "double your speed" thing also apply to the main clue?
no then
 
It works with the riddle, too. But It's no use
 
i.e. jener zweite Satz/Reihe skippen...
 
Richtig. You wont need that
 
ok
so I have the main and the object...
 
and you need the solution
no problem, always here to gelp
help
 
11:59 AM
so. the solution can actually be deduced from the object + the main?
 
Yes, it can
 
i'm thinking of a guillotine..
 
how come?
 
but that's not it surely.. I'm struggling to see the relevance of the 4 animals..
well the theme of death... hung heads... something shiny shall we say
 
How is your mirror taking part in all this?
 
12:15 PM
well a shiny guillotine would make a nice Spiegel
:p
but I know it's nothing..
 
That's not that bad after all
 
my focus is on trying to see how those 4 things fit
doll, owl etc
 
They are on the cabinet
 
Ok the issues are this:
1) What is the death symbolising here
2)They cannot see who'll be the one - the only sight-based thing
3) how the hell will a single object or whatever come out
 
1) you will somehow make them die while solving the riddle
2) I can explain to you, It's not very relevant to you
3) surprise
 
12:39 PM
are you sure the weird indention doesn't matter anymore?
 
How could it?
 
not sure
anything is possible
:p
I'm feeling a bit in the dark about this whole thing :(
 
It's easy actually
What do you see
a cabinet of course
what else?
 
Doll etc
 
what else
 
12:43 PM
Spiegel
I imagine it being behind them
 
possible
 
up against the wall... although it could also be a hand spiegal
ok
 
doesn't matter
 
and I see that they are "looking down"
 
right
waiting for their fait
 
12:45 PM
fate*
 
thats true haha
 
"they already hung their heads"
not clear if it means they are on a rope... or what
could just be looking down
 
oh ok
I just shivered
 
supposedly I'm intending to kill them
 
Yes
in order to find the one
 
12:46 PM
so I'm like testing them?
 
Well, do you have a weapon?
 
"elude your threats"
seems weird..
I'm not sure that I have a weapon
maybe just my spiegel
 
exactly
can elude be like avoid?
 
yes
could just mean "avoid your attempts (to kill)"
that's quite literal.. and I think that's it
 
right
You are scaring me to death with your questions
I'm always thinking I picked wrong words
 
12:50 PM
well there's only one I can't kill
 
:)
seems like you got it
 
(the Puppe)..
but why does this require the spiegel ?!
 
Why do you think you cant kill it?
 
because it's not alive..
 
There must be something else
you will know
 
12:53 PM
i'm so confused :p
 
That's ok :)
 
I guess this is where it is:
"They cannot see who'll be the one
they are as far as can be
But maybe you can tell them soon
so they can die peacefully"
 
there are many hints in there
but
not all are relevant to you
since you already got the object
 
is the spiegal about reversal of Woerte?
 
Does it give you a suitable solution?
