Re: Thursday Hint

About how you’re between the bars?

Re: Thursday Hint

Malcolm
It's a riddle

And I'm not saying that in a "boo! Figure it out!" way but
There might be a certain way you want to "speak" of jail? If it's a riddle?

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

Sorry, I'm a little distracted. I really want to know your flood instructions so I can respect your wishes and I normally love a puzzle, but Will graduated today and I'm trying to plan something special for this evening while I do this.

Am I supposed to say it outloud?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

YES

ok, "yes" can also be a "yeah!" reaction to Will graduating
Hooray!!!

[Walter's timing. Christ.]

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

Does it have anything to do with it sounding like there's a letter e in it but there's not?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

I'mmmmm not sure exactly what you mean so I won't say
But you're getting there! This is real riddle progress!

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

Are the 'bars' letter l's?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

no
you can do it!

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

Are the bars the kind with liquor?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

no. Maybe zoom out on the bar thing

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

Are the bars the whole Barge because it’s a jail?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

that would be a bit hard to find as a single location now wouldn't it

You need to think about what is missing from "jail" when you say it out loud. Something you wouldn't think about from just seeing it written down. That's also why it's being called jail instead of prison like usual!

If you get that part, you will get your credit for solving the riddle. Though you were pretty close to getting it from another angle

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

It kinda sounds like just saying J L but then stuff would be extra, not missing.

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

:>

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

So A I is missing. …Which common room has to do with artificial intelligence? The Enclosure?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

no
so close!
What is missing from J L? What is in between those bars?

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

AI. Is it someone’s initials?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

no, AI is not missing from JL. Something else is missing from JL.

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

…Is JL someone’s initials?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

no :)
I will understand if you are upset and roast my riddle crafting skills

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

…Isn’t it a well crafted riddle if it’s hard to guess?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

yeah but it should not impossible to guess though.

J, L, what is missing!!

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

…K?

Re: Thursday Hint

[forensicks]

🥳🎉

(Still feel a little guilty that those emojis should be for Will.)

Re: Thursday Hint

[abrightboy]

You can text him if you want; I’m sure he’d be glad to hear from you. What about ‘K’?
