Puzzles Etc.

I hope you guys are ready for puzzling friend part 3 (coming soon) where I employ the use of methods needed to solve it

"I employ the use of methods needed to solve it" - Still trying to solve this puzzle.

What's the strikethrough syntax, in here? @humn

I hope you guys are ready for Sherlock puzzle part 3 (coming soon) where I Moriarty (have something)

If I can get my idea to work, it will probably be a bit harder that the last one (harder relative to who is trying to solve it I guess)

I have an idea, for a chemical puzzle. Can you solvent?

:P

7:09 PM

K_K: three - dashes at each end - - - without spaces - - -

ah, okay

@question_asker Here's a rebus for you: ~~COLA~~

Nuka-cola

It refers to: pretends to be dramatic A drink!

7:10 PM

colacut

Kolkata

Yes, humn

took me a second to realize you were answering, haha

Kala Khatta?

this is ~~rebus~~

LoL, why did you edit your answer, humn, when you had it right

haha

seven up?

7:12 PM

yes, lol

just edit-happy, K_K, it was meant to be a new line asking if it's ~~rebus~~, what is it?

but how?

Weak rebus, obscure reference, you are well on your way to making a puzzle for here!

I wanted to do it earlier when we were talking about it, but didn't know how to do a strikeout, outside of LaTex, lol

lol, Gordon

7:14 PM

when you nose gets kinda runny, you may think it's kinda funny but ~~it's~~

Another rebus: What activity is it? ~~SHIT~~

Snot Stew.

hmm, maybe it's s

Oddly, a book I remember my librarian reading to us when I was like 6

7:15 PM

~~|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||~~

Some things, like snot, stick with you.

hahaha

@Khale_Kitha Take your star and get outta here....

hahahha

There is another thing that sticks with you.

Your skin, if you're lucky.

7:16 PM

btw you probably wont see my next puzzle until like friday since it requires a lot of work to make and i'm lazy

Yeah, I still haven't figured out how to use Blender to make my next one, so I need to think of an interim puzzle.

My interim puzzle also involves a fair amount of work :/

I have been procrastinating a puzzle idea for 2 months now.

Why make puzzles when we have trash bag puzzles to read?

looks at q_a's puzzles

yeah ..true

7:18 PM

Ah, that's the shortcut for taht..

10₧ for Griffendor.

But this year, Slytherin wins.

wants to find bad puzzles. gets directed to own user page. cries.

ah, the classic trick

@GordonAllocman I know how it feels.

7:20 PM

Oh, and humn..

haha

It wasn't until I completed the crossword that I found that I can make a word 'fated'

7:21 PM

@Khale_Kitha You approach the door

That's what I thought of, too :P

@humn what is this!!!

and door hits you

@question_asker it's a fence

ah! that's actually... what it looks like

Expensive fence

Too many fenceposts

- - - | - - - - - - - - - - - - | - - - - - - - - - - - - | - - - - - - - - - - - - | - - -

Wow, it worked.

7:22 PM

It is a number line

how? (got it, great!)

like that

without the spaces

|

--I--

ahh..that's how

7:23 PM

works with spaces too: ~~| - - - - - - - - - - -|~~

Not I, use |

-| |-

single |

Lift, q_a! Lift!

-|=|-        -|=|-

I... what

-| |- -| |-

7:24 PM

They look like little dumbells =D

hunter22

I'm trying, I'm trying

Another rebus: I it's You

asterisks?

7:24 PM

i don't see *s

same

just remembered, two clues from a real crossword recently:

damn its hunter2, i ruined the meme

blank stare

wuss: _ _ ssy

7:26 PM

sissy

intractable one: _ _ _ _ ard

@humn hussy?

laggard?

@Khale_Kitha knowyourmeme.com/memes/hunter2

they weren't my first guesses

7:26 PM

@humn haggard?

This is a room of polite and humble people.

just....not worth knowing

(just being rhetorical)

-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-

I suppose I'm the only one, to whom, that word makes them think of Rhett

I'll never learn your fencepost trick

7:28 PM

Butler?

from rhett and link?

~~|------------|------------|------------|------------|~~

q_a, two more -- dashes -- at each end ----> for 3 total at each end... ahhhhhh...

From gone with the wind

aha!

7:30 PM

Oh, that one's interesting

~~ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ ɬ~~

somebody tied a bunch of ribbons on my fence

~~---=~~=_---=

wtf happened there.

~

7:31 PM

My text was assimilated!

@Khale_Kitha This guy is weeping.

Is that it? He looks Borg, to me.

The tennis player?

I'm really curious how that happened..

~~ɫ ɫ ɫ~~

7:32 PM

I think we've gone past Etc and into Sandbox, now.

~~<------>~~

vvvvvv is that crossed out?

█

no

~~Fork~~

7:33 PM

right, though, K_K, i saw someone playing in the sandbox with ~~strikethrough~~

~~ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ ǁ~~

now my fence makes a clicking noise!!!

hah

~~Snape killed Dumbledore~~

now that was a niche joke

eyyyy @Khale_Kitha somebody just upvoted my answer on CCC

Yeah, and my question

lol

7:35 PM

must've been Pangloss

one of us got more rep ...

ah, the ol' pangster

~~╞------═------═------═------═------═------╡~~

Now i like that one =D

7:36 PM

asd

how do you force a space?

Q: Historical music

A song is represented by the changes you see, before you. What song is it? (I promise it's not too broad, just take a closer look.) love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love lov...

pattern visual music

that's the one, manshu

fixed is the only way I know of, in here, q-a

BTW @humn I need to say something that I should have told you long ago.

fixed?

7:38 PM

the fixed font button, I mean

manshu?

Or maybe with ` marks

If those work in here

no such luck!

My rep was not deducted on that pink question of yours even after its deletion.

doh

7:38 PM

all the better, manshu, you deserved those other ^votes anyway

Barb wire

~~|-x-x-x-*-x-x-|~~ with some fur

yes!

I fixed my problem by using em dashes

which, for reasons only I understand, I have memorized the alt code for

(it's 0151, if you were wondering)

aww

~~Clarke Kent is Batman~~

the strikethrough won't work for me

7:41 PM

it stopped working?

q_a, you can ALT-key em dash?

yeah, alt+0151 on the numpad

Yeah, it's the line, so it doesn't get made small by the font

- vs —

sure—enough! (didn't even know that about the ALT key... now manshu owes me another life lesson to keep up)

lol, humn

¿que pasa?

:P

there are a few things near the end of the ISO-whateverthenumbersare page that I have memorized

7:43 PM

I have so many alt codes memorized, it's like 90º :P

Alt +987 = █

or just 219

like alt+0223 is es-zett

haha, just think of all the ones you've forgotten

7:44 PM

at least you could, if you hadn't forgotten them

13 years of spanish drilled that one into me

I hate when someone says: What was it I was going to say?

My response is always: "I don't know, you never told me."

then they say: "never mind"

haha

7:44 PM

or

"What was it I was going to tell you?"

I like "what was I going to say" just as a placeholder, like "don't start ignoring me yet, there was going to be more and if I think of it soon, I'll start saying it"

haha "there was something I was going to tell (or say to) you and I forgot" always gets me real worried

Let me outa here before this things blows...
What's wrong with it?
I'd...
Where'd you have it fixed?
I just had it worked on.
Who worked on it?
The man that's got the garage...
Well, he ain't no good.
The man you want is the man...
I had him.
He's the one that ruined it.
Well, I see you got plenty water,
But are you outa gas?
No, it ain't that. I think maybe it's...
Oh, it couldn't be that.
Well, there ain't much wrong with it.
What you need is some of them new gadgets.
You know, the kind that you buy...

Friend: What was it I was going to say?
Me: The same thing that you planned me to listen

..age

Too few stars on the pinned start over there -------- >

"Well, I see you got plenty water" got reminded to fill the water bottle

7:47 PM

I still wish taht calling it the starboard had caught on

hehe

@humn what is that?

This is the starboard.

the percect double entendre

I read that as "percocet"

7:48 PM

At least the double entendre is painless.

how did you pin?

Feature as the room owner

ah
