For those who like to solve things...

If you solve it, I will give you the rest.

[Edit] Corrected the first 6 in line 2. Thankyou for seeing it, aporia. :^)

What is this?

It’s a cipher, D. Have fun!

my policy in life is to try to take teh blue pill as much as possible, and as long as it doesn’t make me insane.

I’ll take the red pill on this one. What the hell is this?

It’s really not that bad, once you get cracking on it. Assuming the source material is English, that is. :slight_smile:

me don’t like math, give me the red pill quick. It is almost spring, I wanna be outside.

It might be a number using the nth term or something, but like I said, red pill please.

Sorry, this is philosophy- I don’t have answers, I just have the methods you use to get them. :slight_smile:

Philosophy is rubbish. That’s my philosophy.

There’s a misspelling :stuck_out_tongue:

Are you sure you didn’t mistake something italicized for something that wasn’t? That’s been the pain in the ass for me.

I checked and it is a mistake in the cipher. I won’t reveal the mistake in-thread though, lest it hint at the structure of the cipher. It’s unlikely to throw anyone off-track anyway.

There’s a mistake? There was one thing I thought I should have done differently, but it was a judgment call (if it is in the first number of the fourth line, then that is it, and I can change it if you prefer).

After you crack the code, there’s a solvable gooey filling – anyone solve it yet?

– Uccisore

Hmm… If you solve my riddle, you’ll have an even better method.

Apologies to “D” and sirswedishmike. Do not waste your time on this – go play outside. Although, you could take it outside with you while you bask in the sun – great way to relax.

Please note I fixed the error pointed out by aporia. My riddle, I thought, was very simple, and no one has solved it. Why? It’s my first riddle, it can’t be that hard.

Be back in a couple days or so.

This isn’t exactly one of those “What has legs but can’t walk?” riddles.

With the hope that this will motivate more to take a crack at it… here is “the rest” of RBI (regular, bold, italic)… I’ll have to think of something else to give the person who solves the riddle…

Do you see any mistakes in this one, Aporia?

I’ve just spent a pleasurable hour cracking your code(s), Ichthus :slight_smile:

I didn’t find any mistakes in this latest text, although there are two “words” in there that may as well be errors!

I’m glad you enjoyed it.

Unfortunately, not a single soul has shown that they have solved the first (and only) riddle, and you choose to answer my question by saying I have phrased it incorrectly (I assume)… If it helps, I understand that the former object is a ‘transiting’ one while the latter may not be… and the … how shall I say without ruining the fun for others?.. um… “way of observation” of the former is a very roundabout, indirect one… nothing is directly observed. If that clears it up, then… well… please answer the question, as it is a genuine one and you apparently know something about this (unless you were just on a fishing expedition and solved nothing).

As to your signature – I hope you are referring to a necklace, and that “f***ing” is the word “feeling” or some such word that would describe one technique of putting on a necklace. Take it easy.

The riddle in the original post, in plain English… if you solve it, I have this book “Philosophy and the Emotions” – a collection of essays edited by Hazymosis or some weird name like that. I could not get into it, and if I ever develop the vocabulary to go with it, maybe I’ll buy it again. PM me your p.o. box with the answer to this riddle and it’s yours.

Here’s a hint: the solution is in the riddle.

I can solve it but, my brain cells are screaming: No work, no work , coffee, coffee, now!

Maybe later when they are less rebellious :laughing:
