No. Over a long enough time scale, any numbers are big. No. Every murder may be a signal, but signals fade. Humanity's attempts to find something useful about vampire murders over the course of history can just neatly telescope into a finite sum. Every murder is a signal that sends information. And...

Okay, if there are snake tits I'm definitely in. Scaley boobs do things to me, despite (or maybe because of) the failure of biology. Snake tits can improve a lot of things. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go lie in the sun definitely do human things with my human arms and legs. There's an Austra...

They weren't even the same people who made The Walking Dead. Those two left to make Firewatch.

The first picture in the OSSR (the cover of Night's Edge) is hosted at a free ebook download site that Google Safe Browsing hates.

GIANTS DANCE using the key previously found by SlyJohnny here: Assuming that the disc is relevant to this and is therefore one of the four-letter words, and that the three letter word is "the", I make it: "ancient lore seek the giants dance gold disc activates" And yes, we should...

This, and exit 3 now.

Ordeal and exit 5. I suspect the final result will be our magic stat.

I'm curious if there's any metagame reason to pick 4, or if it was random. Least conspicuous number. We're probably supposed to try the doors until we find a gold item and return. 1 would be too meta for... 1984, really? what , and also bad design (because trying the exits in order makes sense and ...

Exit 4.

This isn't a gotcha, it's what conservatives have always believed.

Boy I sure do love watching Count explain that a bunch of trans people aren't really trans.

SlyJohnny wrote:Also, how on earth did you solve that, starmaker?

Brute force looking for English numerals, with a wildcard for each of those m-like symbols. I tried frequency analysis (online solvers, and the one I wrote for a Java class), all of them failed.

Starmaker

That was unreasonably brutal. Protip, fancy characters don't make a cipher in a fantasy world more "realistic" when the solution is STILL IN ENGLISH. asecret doorlies hiddeninthe so*thern*all seekitinsection thirtyfive Thinky man no like thinking. Pull levers, no translate. Can Fire*Wolf e...

All of them look like characters from a hidden object game. I can easily see each of them menacing some poor stay-at-home mom('s husband) in a sexually suggestive way.

Starmaker

Thank you.

Myst is still ass, though.

Oh, it's Russia. It's never been that good, but I figure everyone agrees that neither USSR nor the current situation are anywhere good, despite the swing from totalitarian left to authoritarian center-right in a decade. The USSR was the first country to fully criminalize rape, in 1922. The first tw...

No, the newspapers are doing it. I assume articles aren't commonly edited on a phone, and their editorial guidelines supersede the inconvenience of caps lock.

So what's the deal with de-acronymizing acronyms? I had to deal with "Fifa" for a month. Today, I saw "Cern". Why?

How do I fake a blood iron test? Long story short, I'm anemic, I failed a blood iron test and was rejected by a prospective employer. My options are: - starve - get a shitty job and die to an untreated condition - get this job , go private, recover The problem is, those other guys demand a medical e...

I can understand why someone might not enjoy the type of game Cultist Simulator is (like you said, it's extremely opaque and experimentation-based), but stating that like it's an objective failure is stupid. Plenty of people actually enjoy its gameplay and discovering how its systems work. Chill. O...

I just got a job offer to become the true final boss of the Russian internet for a stupidly large amount of money. On one hand, I've been teetering on the brink of insolvency for the last ten years, with a thrice refinanced bike loan (yes), unpaid taxes, and a serious unaddressed medical issue. On t...

Anyway, Putin is going to go down in history as one of the all-time great world leaders. Love that lad. On what criterion? Yes, I'm actually interested. Even if you're a full-blown Nazi (you probably are) and appreciate Putin aid to European Nazi parties and regimes, you should know he also pays tr...

No one has ever been able to make a coherent ethical construct where Neutral Good is distinct from Lawful Good and Chaotic Good but also distinct from Neutral. Indeed, the very concept of being "neutral" to Good and Evil incoherent to begin with. You say this is a bad thing, but so far as...
