MINGLE #4

[pimpmytroll]

Use this post to mingle and meet with each other! For the coding to make your tags MSPA-style use the box below:

<b><font face="courier"><font color="#HEXCODE">

This mingle is backdated to AFTER the previous mingle posts, but before the game launches! It's primarily to build interactions between the new players and existing ones, so old tagging new is highly encouraged! To old players, don't worry too much about keeping track of your newer interactions when tagging, but mentions of the game should be kept to a minimum, or at least the true nature of it.

Apart from that, there are no real guidelines for this post, so tag away and be merry! Comment with your character's name in the subject and then tag into others' threads!

[tetchytmesis]

for. starters.
who. are. you.

[apiarycryptonaut]

I, uh, I'm 4visp4!

[tetchytmesis]

avispa. instead of. fourvispfour. im assuming. right.
so. thats. that.
and.
how. did. you. even. manage to. message. me. by mis. take.
what. are. the. chances.
bonus. points. if you can. answer. in.
5. 4. 3. 2...

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh, oh, um, yes... it's 4visp4, yes, like... th4t, not the numbers!
4nd 4nd 4nd 4nd
It connected 4t r4ndom... I think, yes, bec4use... I don't remember picking... 4ny new n4mes, no!

[tetchytmesis]

really.
truly.
you. believe. wholeheartedly. that. you. didnt.

[apiarycryptonaut]

Um um um um
Now th4t you mention... it, I think, yes!
I didn't do it!
R4ndomness, 4 spice of... life, I think, m4ybe!

[tetchytmesis]

ok. congrats. you. sound. almost. sure. of. something.
when. was. the. last. time. that. happened.

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh, um, 4ll the... time, yes! It's e4sy... to get right 4nswers!
Puzzles 4re convenient like... th4t, yes, I think!

[tetchytmesis]

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh, yes! Th4t's the... best comp4rison, I think.
M4th 4nd puzzles, perfect!
They go h4nd in... h4nd, you know, yes!

[tetchytmesis]

at. least. this.
probably.

a. good. sign. for. us. all.

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh, yes, I think... I'm not dumb bec4use... th4t would me4n I... couldn't solve more puzzles!
Th4t would just be... re4lly, re4lly re4lly, re4lly... b4d in gener4l, yes!
4ctu4lly I don't think... I know 4ny dumb... people 4t 4ll, no.
How puzzling, I think!

[tetchytmesis]

is. this. some. poetic. mush. about. life. being. a. huge. puzzle.
and. then. on. our. deathbed. we. realize.
there. was. no. answer. to. this. puzzle. all. along.
but. also. that.
we. were. the. answer. all. along.
do. you. understand. what. im. saying.
p. s. lucky. you.

[apiarycryptonaut]

Wh4t? Um, no not... 4t 4ll, no, re4lly.
Every puzzle h4s 4... solution, it does, yes.
E4sy ones, sometimes, m4ybe.
Unless there's proof m4ybe... th4t life is 4ctu4lly... 4 big puzzle, yes?
Th4t would be surprising!

[tetchytmesis]

good.
means. i. can. still. publish. this.
without. getting. slammed. for. plagiarism.
ill. call. it. schrodingers. puzzle.
it. wouldnt. be. all. that. surprising.

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh um, I think?
Wh4t's 4 schrodingers, um?

[tetchytmesis]

youve. never. heard. of. schrodinger. and. his. experiment.
weird. since. its. like. a. puzzle. on. its. own.

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh, no, I h4ven't!
But um, wow um... m4ybe I need to?
Especi4lly if it's 4... puzzle on its own!

[tetchytmesis]

so. you. put. a. cat.
in. a. box.
are. you. taking. note. so. far.

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh um, yes, I'm... t4king notes, I 4m!

[tetchytmesis]

not. exactly. what. i. meant. but ok.
so. cat. in. a. box.
you. also. put. a. jar. of. radioactive. jelly. in. the. box.

ok. its. not. really. jelly. but. its. radioactive. something. or. other. who. cares. what.

anyway. finally. you. put in. a. jar. of. poison. gas.
you. close. the. lid.
the. box. is. soundproof. and. basically. everything. ever. proof.

then. theres. the. radioactive. stuff. and. the. gas.
theres. a. fifty. fifty. chance. the. radioactive. particles. will. cause. the. second. jar. to. break.
releasing. poison. gas.

so. you. leave. the. cat. there. for. an. hour.
now. heres. the. puzzle.

is. the. cat. alive. or. dead. once. the. hour. passes.
you. cant. pick. up. the. box. to. shake. it. or. anything.
you. also. cant. open. the. box. to. check.
just. dont. touch. the. box. at. all.

so. which. is. it.

[apiarycryptonaut]

You stare at the explanation, and you've indeed taken notes as you said you would, but this puzzle... This puzzle fascinates you, and it fills your mind with the millions of wonderful possibilities and solutions that it holds. There is only one answer you have right now after several long minutes of thought.

... ... ... ...
I think I need... to try this myself.
Or else I might... 4nswer this wrong, m4ybe.
