Arrogant Bastard's BASTARD Month Riddle Contest

[Joanna]

I'm completely baffled by 14 still, help me please?

[_becca_]

14: think of what you hear...no wait, i mean feel

[Joanna]

I've tried thinking that for ages now and I'm really not getting anywhere, tried all manner of things but nothing that works!

[_becca_]

braille

[Joanna]

That's what I've been thinking but it is escaping me still lol Thanks for stopping me going off on some other tangent!

[_becca_]

we just need all the help we can get for 15! btw anyone got any ideas?

[Flipmode]

Here is some clues for 15: (yah I solved it)

Everything you need is inside those three lines of the haiku
The fact that it is a haiku is a big clue.
NO other information is useful. You don't need anything but those three lines of the poem. One last thing, yes, the fishy was a red herring.

The answer will be a 9 letter word.

16 looks like a monster so I"m just going to go to bed. I"ll be back in about 6-8 hours if you still need help with it.

[Joanna]

Well done!!! Now if I just understood what you said I'd be laughing LOL

[_becca_]

no kidding

[_becca_]

i got it!!! done with 15 finally! way easier than i expected....goodness, i think way too much about things

[Joanna]

Care to give me a further hint please? I am sure I'm waaaay overthinking as per!

[_becca_]

a haiku has a pattern

5-7-5

the answer has 9 letters....

you may have to:

unscramble

[Joanna]

I am truely truely stupid, I still don't get it! :'(

[_becca_]

sent you a pm:) dont worry

[Joanna]

Please excuse me while I go and kick myself repeatedly, and then I will try again to suss 16! Lol

[Spacechild399]

I'm back!!! Please PM me!

EDIT: Because I still don't have a clue and want to see if 16 is as hard as Flipmode says!

[Joanna]

I just sent you a pm spacechild!

[Spacechild399]

Thanks, got it!!!!!!

[Spacechild399]

Now thinking hard about 16! :-?

[_becca_]

please pm me if you figure it out!:)

[Spacechild399]

I don't think I will!

[Spacechild399]

I don't think it has anything to do with a bank statement because there isn't a balance the whole way down the page.

[Joanna]

Does anyone have any idea what on earth the clue in the source means?

[_becca_]

my bf just pointed out that if you look at the dates...1st june...2rd june...3th??? 2rd and 3th??? hmm??!?!

[_becca_]

i'll be back tomorrow to help !! like i said before, leave me some nice hints!!!!

[Spacechild399]

We'll try!

[Donna]

Wahoo seems 15 has been solved. I've read the clues, but can't get it.

Is it 3 letters from each line?

[Joanna]

I'll send you a further hint donna, try to keep things simple!

[Donna]

Thanks Joanna, I was pretty close I was just counting the letters wrong.

Wahoo onto 16 :)

[judyg8or]

God job on 15!!!
Can someone give me an extra nudge??
I have tried 3 letters from each line:
the 6,7,8 from fist
8,9,10 from 2nd
6,7,8 from third
&
counting from the beginning
every 5 then 7th, then 5th letter

nothing worked!

[Joanna]

You are so close now from each letter you come to count on those numbers each time like you said at the end, you need to unscramble what you get!

[judyg8or]

??
You mean
include the counted number in the next count?

[Joanna]

No, just count on from the letter you are at!

[judyg8or]

oh dear-- I am doing that -- but what I get does not anagram into anything :(

I have

ascuseudf
that is every 5th, 7th, then 5th letter...
no anagrams for it :/

[Joanna]

I think you may have counted something wrong, you started out ok!
You need to repeat that pattern 3 times!

[judyg8or]

lol I am going batty on this thing!
I've done it 20 times always with the same result..
have it typed into notepad as one long string of letters--and get the same thing that way too--
am i supposed to be counting the punctuation???

[Spacechild399]

Any luck with 16?? I was off the PC for a while.

[Spacechild399]

lol I am going batty on this thing!
I've done it 20 times always with the same result..
have it typed into notepad as one long string of letters--and get the same thing that way too--
am i supposed to be counting the punctuation???

Im just PM'ing you now.

[Spacechild399]

I've PM'd you again, Judy.

[judyg8or]

Thanks guys--I was not repeating the pattern!!
I really appreciate the help-- I did not want to be thinking about that riddle all day at work!!!

[Spacechild399]

Welcome to 16, probably even harder than 15!!:(

[judyg8or]

I gotta get ready for work :(

Do you think the native digest in the picture's source is the key here??
I have never seen that in any riddle I have played before....

[Spacechild399]

The what???

[Donna]

Any luck Spacechild?

[jack]

Did somebody get 15?

Can somebody PM me please :)

[Spacechild399]

PM'ing you now!

[jack]

Thank you so much, 24 hours on the same riddle was getting a little old :)

[Spacechild399]

Did you get it??

[jack]

No, the letters I got didn't anagram. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

[Spacechild399]

PM'd you again!

[jack]

Thanks, got it now. Was it you that first solved 15? That was very impressive.

[Spacechild399]

Thanks, got it now. Was it you that first solved 15? That was very impressive.

No, you can thank Flipmode for that!

[jack]

The zip code in the bank address isn't from Pennsylvania. Maybe thats what we need to look at.

Wish I knew what the source clue meant. There is so many places to hide stuff here.

If you anagram the dates it spells tobaccoDidn't work though.

[Donna]

Why are the 2nd 3rd and 4th transactions

2rd, 3th and 3th????

I can't find a meaning for it. It seems its standard ??

This is what I've been working on.

[Spacechild399]

The zip code isn't assigned to a place, so I don't think it's that, but then again, anything could work at this early stage....

[jack]

Why are the 2nd 3rd and 4th transactions

2rd, 3th and 3th????

I can't find a meaning for it. It seems its standard ??

This is what I've been working on.

Ahhh, I completely missed that. Good thinking.

Does anybody have any theories on the source clues B*** P*****?

[Donna]

Blue Peter LOL

[Spacechild399]

I don't think you could even call them clues, but I'm still thinking about them.

[Spacechild399]

Anybody any theories about the "code" they say they found??

[jack]

No, not beyond finding the word tobacco earlier. I tried a couple things with the numbers, but no luck so far.

[Spacechild399]

No, not beyond finding the word tobacco earlier. I tried a couple things with the numbers, but no luck so far.

What if it's in the words?? Because this riddle's maker seems to like word play.

[jack]

Could be, really it could be anywhere. We have no real clue as to where we should look for the code. I guess we will just have to try every idea that pops in our heads until something happens.

[Donna]

Argh there's too many numbers, letters, clues Geez these get harder.

[Donna]

Have you made any progress yet jack??

[jack]

I'm playing another riddle to take a break for a bit. I'll try again in a little while.

[Donna]

I'm playing another riddle to take a break for a bit. I'll try again in a little while.

What a great idea! I'm off too for a bit.

[0_0]

No, just count on from the letter you are at!
I followed the 5-7-5 pattern and got the nine letters, but they don't anagram to anything. I have: ascosecye Is the answer more than one word.

[Spacechild399]

I just PM'd you.

[0_0]

Hee hee. I can't believe I missed a letter when I transcribed the phrase and didn't notice it. Oops! Thanks.
But how is the solution word "poetry to my ears". :au: I don't see the connection.

[Spacechild399]

It was a red herring.

[0_0]

Ahhh, I completely missed that. Good thinking.

Does anybody have any theories on the source clues B*** P*****?
Papa Smurf! lol. Not him though. This one's a stumper.
I can think of a few in that category though: Vishnu, genies, Tuaregs.
Ooh, here's a hereditary condition (that occured in Kentucky) that refers to that: methemoglobinemia. Here's a link about that: http://www.life.uiuc.edu/bio100/bluepeople.html

[jack]

Don't forget the las vegas group. :)

[0_0]

And royalty are called Blue-bloods. Have I clouded the issue enough? Sorry, I tend to be tangent-prone. :wink:

[jack]

Who knows with this one. Given we really don't know what to look for anything could be correct.

[Flipmode]

I just got up and only have five minutes to look at this new puzzle, but I found something right off the bat.

First letter of each description anagrams to a word.
REGRWO

First letter of the second word in each description anagrams to a word.
NTRHEC

I don't know if this means anything or not. Time to go to work!! :(

[jack]

Great job on solving 15 BTW :)

[Flipmode]

Great job on solving 15 BTW :)

Thanks. I left the others a few clues and they were able to figure it out too!
#16 looks hard.

OOOHH If if you turn the number in each date into a character (1= A) and anagram you get tobacco

From my notes I have the words:
tobacco, trench, and grower as clues. I bet you guys solve this in another hour.

[0_0]

Why are the 2nd 3rd and 4th transactions

2rd, 3th and 3th????

I can't find a meaning for it. It seems its standard ??

This is what I've been working on.
I don't think the 3th is significant. I found it shown that way in several sites.

[jack]

I found the tobacco earlier, I didn't find the others though. All those words do kind of fit together though.

[Samuel]

any hints for 15?

[jack]

PMed you.

[0_0]

This probably means nothing but "Show Me The Money" is the name of a television program.
I seem to remember Richard Dawson saying it on the Family Feud before revealing the answers, but I could be mistaken. At any rate, the answer's not him.

[Samuel]

alright on 16, i thought show me the money came from Jerry Maguire

[0_0]

any hints for 15?
5-7-5 Count the letters in the Haiku. Use the 5th then 7th then 5th letters (repeat pattern twice more) to find 9 letters. Anagram.

[Samuel]

thanks, im already on 16 though :)

[Joanna]

16 has had the better of me all day long almost! Time to slope off and scream again I think!! :nzd:

[_becca_]

have we had any progress????

i was looking... KoL is Kingdom of Loathing

when youre royalty doesnt it mean you have blue blood??? could be wrong

[Joanna]

I'm on KoL too and I don't think that has any relevance other than as something to use as an address, I might be wrong though! I might go look for him in there LOL

[jack]

I just got up and only have five minutes to look at this new puzzle, but I found something right off the bat.

First letter of each description anagrams to a word.
REGRWO

First letter of the second word in each description anagrams to a word.
NTRHEC

I don't know if this means anything or not. Time to go to work!! :(

Did you see this post? Could be onto something.

[Joanna]

I'd love to say that helped but really I am clueless here! I think I broke google! lol

[Donna]

Has everyone given up on this??

Ok puzzle maker, you can come out now and help us all move along..

[Joanna]

I'd love to say I'd made some progress but alas, it would be a lie! LOL

[Spacechild399]

I can't get it!!! GRRRRRR!!!!

[jack]

Did everybody give up on this one?

[Samuel]

if someone were to get 16 i wouldnt

[jack]

OMG!!!! i SOLVED IT :)

[Samuel]

seriously?!?!?!

[jack]

Yes, see my post on the other forum. You need to go to wikipedia.

[Samuel]

ok i looked there but i havent done any of the stuff you mentioned, where do i start?

[jack]

The cents are the key, look for a town in virginia then use wikipedia. Then use the words Flipmode posted earlier to find a person.

[Samuel]

alright ive anaagrammed the cents and got something that i initiallt thought would be virginia but turned out to be nonsense "inlarva" or other combos

[jack]

Its a town in virginia, don't anagram. Work top to bottom.

[Samuel]

lol i must be especially thick today ive got the word but searches and wikipedia have gave me nothing

[jack]

PM me what word are you putting in wikipedia?

I'm glad I quit the other riddle now :)

[Samuel]

lol i'll PM you, are you still there?

[jack]

PMed you back, did you read my other PM?

Oh and flipmode your original idea was just what I needed to solve it. I had the tobacco, but it wasn't until I saw the other words you found that I realized that was probably correct and not just a coincidence.

[Samuel]

yup i did, it gave me an idea, which didnt work, onto 17...

[Flipmode]

lol i'll PM you, are you still there?

I'm past 16 if you need help.

[Samuel]

its alright i made it :) how far are you guys now? and what the hell does x10 mean?

[Flipmode]

its alright i made it :) how far are you guys now? and what the hell does x10 mean?

I'm on 17
10^-9 = 0.000000001
I guess we need to multiply something by that.
Or its a stupid red herring

[Samuel]

but why is an x in front?

[jack]

The x could mean hex code too. So it could be 16^-9.

[Samuel]

hey jack i got lvl 39, lemme know if you want a better hint

[Flipmode]

I just randomly guessed the answer to 17. Not sure how I can give clues for that. It is a word.

[Samuel]

are you serious? lucky

you are totally serious? you just guessed that? MAN youre good :)

[jack]

OMG, I was trying 6 letter words earlier with a repeating letter in the middle earlier, but I didn't have any luck.

What direction did you go with your random answers?

[Samuel]

i'll PM you jack what flipmode did me

[jack]

Well, luck or no luck I'm glad you got it. This riddle has been hell. If it wasn't up to teamwork on this one I don't think we would have come so far. We have all been the first to solve at least one of these levels after being stuck for long periods of time. I know it would have taken me a lot longer to get the haiku one if flipmode hadn't solved it.

The sinatra song comes to mind in 18.

[Flipmode]

are you serious? lucky

you are totally serious? you just guessed that? MAN youre good :)

It wasn't a total guess. But I had some stuff working in my mind and came up with something kind of like the answer so I just threw it in there and it worked!
I really don't know how to get that though.

On the next one #19, highlight the picture in your browser and get ready for some evil numbers

[Samuel]

lol not me, im always tagging along :)

yes im looking at the numbers too

[Flipmode]

They are radio stations.

[jack]

AM stations in that city?

[Flipmode]

AM stations in that city?

AM and FM I'm looking at this:
http://www.december.com/places/nyc/radio.html
they're all in there!

[jack]

Hmm, perhaps there call signs are the key.

Good thinking.

[Samuel]

yes definitely, good thing i got that link before you edited it.

[jack]

My call sign idea hasn't panned out yet, if I take the first letter after W I get:

valawx

[Flipmode]

My call sign idea hasn't panned out yet, if I take the first letter after W I get:

valawx

I get valaww
Do you think there are people out there that DON'T click the spoiler button?

[Samuel]

no i dont
lol proves your point eh?

[jack]

The last one has two listings. Neither anagram into anything useful though.

And I pretty much click spoilers even if I don't need to.

[Samuel]

im confused they all have almost the same letters so how the hell are you guys getting all this stuff out of it?

[Flipmode]

The last one has two listings. Neither anagram into anything useful though.

And I pretty much click spoilers even if I don't need to.

Yep, they do. I missed that.

[jack]

All the letters can't be used, the Q and lack of vowels prevent that.

I tried all the religious stations too from the title.

[Flipmode]

got it.

keep the call signs stacked on top of each other in the order from the picture.
The first letter is in the first row, second letter is in the second row, etc.

I used http://casr.adelaide.edu.au/craig/wow.html
to help me solve it. Its a good thing because it is a very obscure word. At least I've never heard it before. It does say it is a vocabulary lesson though.

Edit: I just looked up the answer word to find its meaning, and it does relate to the 'devout' clue given in the title bar.

[Samuel]

ive been trying to follow along with you guys, but this is too confusing, have fun :)

[jack]

Got it, good job.

Wow 19 has a lot of stuff going on. I tried the last one first. I know what code to use, but how to use it is another question.

[Flipmode]

Got it, good job.

Wow 19 has a lot of stuff going on. I tried the last one first. I know what code to use, but how to use it is another question.


Me too. Thats where I started, even though I'm sick of trying to use codes and make ciphers! The first one is likely pi or3.14 since its a math answer according to the submit button.

[Samuel]

thats what i was thinking (for pi)
wondering what to do with the wav file.
thanks for the help on that last one flipmode i didnt know there was a second possibility

[jack]

In the second door:

Is that from Star Wars or Indiana Jones, it definately sound like John Williams work. I assume Star Wars from the title

[Samuel]

if youve narrowed it down id say star wars because of the name of the page

[Flipmode]

thats what i was thinking (for pi)
wondering what to do with the wav file.
thanks for the help on that last one flipmode i didnt know there was a second possibility

No problem. You can pay me back by solving this one!

[Samuel]

i'll try :) i brute forced the cipher on the 3rd page but got nothing

[jack]

I'm trying a few things with door 3 now. I was thinking the capital letters could be the key to the lowercase or vice versa. If there was two key letters in a row I would decode it with the first one, then decode that result with the next one. I got:

eorjmbo for lowercase and srjffdza for uppercase. Neither make much sense obviously.

[Samuel]

have you seen the source for door 3? confusing

i thought we had to use the "pi code" (dont know if thats real) for door 3, i.e. use the numbers of pi to shift the ciphertext, didnt work. any other ideas?

p.s. stumped by door 2 source code

[Flipmode]

I'm trying a few things with door 3 now. I was thinking the capital letters could be the key to the lowercase or vice versa. If there was two key letters in a row I would decode it with the first one, then decode that result with the next one. I got:

eorjmbo for lowercase and srjffdza for uppercase. Neither make much sense obviously.


I'm trying to do the uppercase with one shift and the lowercase with a different shift.

I've read of a caesar code where the cipher shifts every time you change case. That could be difficult

[jack]

I'm trying to do the uppercase with one shift and the lowercase with a different shift.

I've read of a caesar code where the cipher shifts every time you change case. That could be difficult

That would be extremely difficult. Its worth working on though, I think I'll give that a shot tomorrow. I'm going out in about 20 minutes so I definately don't have time to do that now.

[Samuel]

it changes with the case? where can i find out about that?

[jack]

I'm heading out, maybe I can work out door 3 tomorrow using flipmodes idea. At least I am hoping to.

[npfan]

any help on 17??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[_becca_]

i'm stuck on 17 too...any hints for us??

[Flipmode]

There are NO clues for 17
Noone solved it. I just lucky and guessed the right answer.
I'll PM both of you with it. Delete it if you don't want to know.

[_becca_]

how in the world did you guess that!! amazing!

[Flipmode]

how in the world did you guess that!! amazing!

I used the Force.

[npfan]

lol

how about 18...it's so confusing...

[_becca_]

got it.

keep the call signs stacked on top of each other in the order from the picture.
The first letter is in the first row, second letter is in the second row, etc.

I used http://casr.adelaide.edu.au/craig/wow.html
to help me solve it. Its a good thing because it is a very obscure word. At least I've never heard it before. It does say it is a vocabulary lesson though.

Edit: I just looked up the answer word to find its meaning, and it does relate to the 'devout' clue given in the title bar.


what??!?!

[Flipmode]

what??!?!


This is by far the hardest one I think.. of course I'm still stuck on 19.

How far have you gotten so far? I can maybe help you from there.

[_becca_]

i pmed you flipmode...

[npfan]

So did I for hints...

EDIT: any ideas for Door 2?

[Donna]

Congratulations Jack for solving 16! Myself and Spacechild kept bumping into each other on here and thought everyone had given up on this!

So...whats the secret??


EDIT: Nm I got it. :)

[judyg8or]

Yeah! Congrats to Jack on 16---
I am having problems getting the town though....
from top to bottom I have a 7 letter word starting with V-- which Wiki has never heard of..
If I assume the 1st 2 letters of my word might be referring to the state, and take them out--
Wiki has still never heard of it...
am sure I am missing a step...as usual :/

never mind-- I think I am getting it--
got a hit on google by dropping the last letter !

[judyg8or]

I think I am going back to Dracula LOL
Even after entering half the crap on the Wiki page, it still doesn't work--
This one is soooo frustrating because you rarely have that feeling of
"AHA!" I got it--it is more like guesswork :/

[Donna]

This one is soooo frustrating because you rarely have that feeling of
"AHA!" I got it--it is more like guesswork :/

I'll second that. #16 for example, rediculous answer!! It took me yonks of searching random names etc!

If you need more help, PM me.

[Donna]

Flipmode - you guessed level 17? HOW? LOL

[DraculasSpiddle]

There are NO clues for 17
Noone solved it. I just lucky and guessed the right answer.
I'll PM both of you with it. Delete it if you don't want to know.

man, i've needed the hints here for a lot of the other levels, but
holy jhc, i got this one:

the page source has x10^-9, which denotes "nano". now think of what kind of "waves" are that small.

[Samuel]

have you gotten past 19 draculasspiddle?

[DraculasSpiddle]

no, i'm back over @ drac's riddle; i'll come back here in a few.

[DraculasSpiddle]

got it.

keep the call signs stacked on top of each other in the order from the picture.

i think i'm blind, i don't even see any call letters in/on #18........?

[jack]

Use IE, if you are using firefox you won't be able to see the numbers.

[DraculasSpiddle]

Use IE, if you are using firefox you won't be able to see the numbers.
i see. but then i again i can't see! my IE is quarantined (damn_MS). any way to put the relevant info into a spoiler?

[jack]

I pmed you the info you'll need.

[DraculasSpiddle]

I pmed you the info you'll need.
thanks! ended up w/ a "K" for the last letter, but dictionary.com suggested a "Y".

now i can finally go eat!

[_becca_]

someone plz spoil me on 18

[Donna]

I need help on 17 the waves one. I gather I am looking for a 6 letter word with a 'double' 'letter in middle? I've tied to guess but I'm not that good.

[DraculasSpiddle]

I need help on 17 the waves one. I gather I am looking for a 6 letter word with a 'double' 'letter in middle? I've tied to guess but I'm not that good.
donna, see hint a couple pages earlier (post #1215), if you need a bit more...
look into the LENGTHS of certain WAVEs

anyone make progress on #19?

the fact that "all solutions" have a "similar format" should help.
but what of the "top to bottom" entering of the final answer? 3 words that have some sort of hierarchy (vertical-wise)??

[Donna]

DraculasSpiddle, I have PMed you.

[jack]

Finally finished, needed quite a bit of help on 19 though. 20 is the last stage.

[Samuel]

yeah im still not getting door 2, ive got the answer for 1 and 3 but...

[jack]

I'll PM you.

[DraculasSpiddle]

yeah im still not getting door 2, ive got the answer for 1 and 3 but...
i'd be happy w/ any anwswer to any door, or just a hint or whatever.

[jack]

I'll PM you, I didn't solve it, but I have the answer. Someone explained door two to me but I didn't understand it. They gave me the number but I don't remember it now so all I can give you is the answer. I'll put it in a spoiler in case you don't want it.

[Samuel]

lol jack there wasnt even a point in asking me whether i wanted it or not, you knew i'd open it (the spoiler)

and WOW is this not your typical wordsearch i found the somewhat "hidden word" and think i found one word in the last 5 minutes, being as i dont know the key yet. this could take awhile :)

[jack]

The next one is way easier, I had no problem at all solving that one. I left a clue on the other forum if you need it.

I normally don't cheat, but after the explanation was given I was none the wiser to solving it, so I opted to get the number. Maybe it would make sense to somebody more familiar with music compostion.

[Samuel]

lol i wasnt expecting the answer from you but i guess if you didnt get it, neither would I

and was your hint that it used a method in npfan's game? i didnt really like it so i didnt go very far :S

but anyways i'll have to try this a little later

[npfan]

About the hint about it being one of my levels, there are actually some other riddles that have used this method...and WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DIDN'T LIKE IT???!!!

[Samuel]

im nothing if im not honest :) dont take it personally...

im assuming the key to this level has to do with the i wonder what , maybe it needs to be converted to something else , i'll have to try that tomorrow goodnighht

[npfan]

Congratulations, you just posted a walkthrough for 20.

EDIT: Actually, you have it backwards.

[Samuel]

oh whoops lol i didnt even realize that i'll edit it

[richgirlfore]

just google the letters...lol
need help, can't fugure out lvl one. i'm such a BAKA.

[Mistery]

Hi Nicolet, welcome to the forums :)
Most of us have played this riddle more than 2 years ago, so I doubt that anyone would remember details. But check these posts by jack, they might be helpful to you :)
