7:00 PM
I'll have to check that soon
 
water blanket =P
 
Dunno what happened
 
7:26 PM
Bah, I hate this. Ideas for CC but not sure if they really follow the rules, entirely.
And asking specifics gives it away.
 
@Khale_Kitha email me. chris.cudmore at that google mail service
 
@Khale_Kitha You could just post a bunch of "unorthodox CCs" and hope people get/like them, as I did.
 
I think I learned everything I know about cryptics in the last two or three weeks, participating in the CCCC
 
Also, does CC mean cryptic clue or @ChrisCudmore? :-P
 
7:28 PM
Depends.
If Chris posts a CCCC then it becomes a CCCCCC
 
@Randal'Thor well... @ChrisCudmore is pretty unorthodox
 
answered
 
Oh. Well good to know it works. (Sound was left in from another idea, sry.)
Thanks
 
7:36 PM
@BeastlyGerbil Agreed. At least this one isn't OEIS trivial.
That doesn't make it any good. :)
 
I hate rude and unreasonable chicken.
 
Yeah thats a start @Rubio!
 
Yeah, I checked that, early on, Beastly, hehe
 
@ChrisCudmore Oh, there are much funnier ones than that out there.
 
7:36 PM
Oh definitely.
 
There's a guy in Mos Eisley who's full of these things.
 
Assuming the site still exists.
 
Bit racist... but funny nonetheless
 
English speakers butcher other languages, too :P
 
@Khale_Kitha Ugh, I know.
 
7:37 PM
Wait..
English speakers butcher English, too.
Sounds like a cryptic clue.
 
@Khale_Kitha Yes, but not as often. We don't think we speak your language, and certainly don't go to press with our own translations.
 
Anything could be a cryptic clue :p
 
Perhaps - I've seen a few foreign-located signs where the native language was butchered horrificly.
We need to pester @Will again, to see if he's around.
No, I said Will. Not manshu.
 
That was such good timing :P
 
hehe
 
7:40 PM
@Will's cryptics always seen to take forever to crack
 
Will will be here...
just checking in..
 
Cracking will's cryptics are creepily cathartic, though.
 
@Khale_Kitha Are Will and manshu secretly socks?
 
haha
 
Nah, that's more likely to be humn and manshu ;-)
 
7:41 PM
ikr
 
just trying to find the password of the other id..
 
1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
 
Will Will be here? Or will will write a will of his own free will without willingly being Will?
 
Well, weally, I won't know if will will write a will of his will with or without being will.
 
Oh nice, Polymath hats.
@BeastlyGerbil *write?
 
7:43 PM
oops :P
 
hehe
 
Is everyone will here
well*
 
I knew it. I'm surrounded by Wills.
Two spaceballs semi-quotes in 30 seconds.
 
Are there balls in space?
 
7:44 PM
Sure. Many people have lost their marbles up there.
 
like, maybe, Spaceballs?

Q: When and why did the Enterprise get balls?

PraxisWhen the USS Enterprise first appeared, its warp nacelles looked like this from the rear: At some point in The Original Series, the ship seems to have enjoyed a mild refit, resulting in ball-like attachments at the rear ends of the nacelles that weren't there before: When exactly did the En...

 
whattodonow
 
@manshu Just don't talk about properties of your pen.
 
7:46 PM
Truth.
 
Thats just swill. Sorry, swell! I think I've fallen will, wait no ill! Let me take some wills, no it's pills! Who knew whales ate cwill? No they eat crill! Hang on let me fetch my dwill, no its a drill! Will? no, well?
 
(sorry)
 
I'm having fun here :P
 
I think beastly is having a synaptic rhyme malfunction.
 
Thats a thing? Best malfunction ever!
 
7:47 PM
hehehe
 
properties of my pen you say? One of them is writing stuff
 
wills! ^
:P
 
rat - The pen is blue.

For the price of my advice to entice lice to the nice rice device and dice mice twice in a trice, thrice a slice of ice with spice in a vice will suffice.
 
And now you've seen it twice.
 
7:48 PM
Christ!
That must have taken some price
 
Nice!
 
It's been a month since I ate rice
 
What about lice?
 
I've only has them twice
 
7:49 PM
Have you ever enticed lice to your nice rice device while dicing mice twice for a price?
2
 
Well!! That's pretty nice
 
I think this will suffice.
 
cheating :P
 
Anyone wanna give each other some advice?
 
7:50 PM
What's your asking price?
 
Well it's not accurate anyway. How does fleece rhyme with nice?
 
Yeah, most things on that site are pretty bad
 
Nice is a city
 
True
The "almost rhyme" section is always questionable, though
receipts?
Meh.
 
7:51 PM
And it's pronounced Ner-ee-ss
 
@Khale_Kitha Help me I am trying not to be vice
 
Often used in cryptics to cue French language. -- Nice friend -> ami
 
hah
 
still for me, nothing beats buffalo
 
it is weird that they add both pronunciations together there
 
7:52 PM
@ChrisCudmore Vrai
 
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo
 
there should really be two sections
 
Don't beat your buffalo!
 
I actually completely understand that, at this point, Matt.
Had to re-read it several times to finally get it.
 
Wait is Buffalo a verb
 
7:53 PM
for(int i =1;i<MAXBUFFALO;i++)
Console.Write("Buffalo");
 
yes
 
It can be
 
I doubt it would ever appear in normal conversation then :P
Except here of course. Everything possible appears here
 
we're gonna need a bigger hint — owlswipe Jan 1 at 16:50
heh
 
7:54 PM
I need to make a puzzle where that's the solution
it will be so confusing
 
A cryptic clue.
 
@Khale_Kitha that... doesn't look right
 
More in-depth explanation.
 
Animal intimidation in New York (7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7)

That's the article that finally helped me 'get it'
haha, Matt
 
7:56 PM
not really cryptic, but equally ridiculous
 
Animal intimidation in New York (7 * 8)
 
Ok, I get it.
 
BUFFALO!
 
Help! Help! I'm being Buffaloed!
 
to buffalo the repressed, or repress the buffalo?
 
7:58 PM
@Randal'Thor I have to ignore every one of those {XXX} word ones, because they drive me nuts.
Somehow, the brackets didn't make the XXX less inappropriate feeling.
