But it really is the best we've come up with isn't it? In fact isn't it the ONLY thing we've come up with??

because if you take it this way:

Look FamiLiar

you read it as

Look Family Liar

so if we assume that this is the case, and this is in fact the answer, to me it says:

"Doesn't this look familiar??? Isn't this the family liar???"

So assuming this, she is saying this about the videos...or Gemma.
Even if we CAN use the "L" (It would go against the character mask), and we got to "FamiLia_", there is NO "r" anywhere in this... it would then be either:
Code: Select all
"FamiLiaa"
"FamiLiab"
"FamiLiaf"
"FamiLiag"
"FamiLiai"
None of which are words..

Yes, "Familiar" would make sense, but given what we have, it isn't possible to get it.
yea i know..i under stood that

but i never actually wrote all the possibilities down and looked at them after taking a break...
but something makes sense to me right now

FamiLiab

meaning: Family Liability
or is that spelt wrong...

anyways my reasoning for this is because when ever i listen to OpAphid's latest video reversed, I hear at the beginning (...well end...) friends are liabilities. This could extend into family, or "family" ("brother", "sister"). And to me that not only sounds like something that OpAphid would say, but also Tachyon in this situation.

Soooo...
Look FamiLiab.

But why waste the letters on look at all. The puzzle would be more useful and better implemented by using that space for more useful letters. On that topic how about that small, f and g eh?

I think we're jumped on the wrong train on this one, and we're so busy trying to hang on to it that we can't see the right answer.

And yes, I'm just as guilty of it. My "gut" says the above... but I have no idea what to do with it.

The rotten thing is, I have this feeling it's right under our noses, and we're going to kick ourselves for not seeing it.

I dunno...just got bored and even though everything about this is uncertain...killing time...maybe it will make someone think of something.

a FamiLia

I know it's not right, though. The F and L still don't make sense.

Of course it does.

Have there ever been things in Spanish before? It means "to family"...but I don't get why the L would be capitalized.

i don't know if any one has answered this uestion, i've went through and couldn't find anything...maybe i'm blind ...

but what does the 20 and the 3f mean? (or is it 2 O )

ForeverMourn · Post by **ForeverMourn** » Tue Dec 05, 2006 2:52 pm

The 20 was a space and the 3f was a question mark.

this is what i'm coming up with and the angle i'm attacking it at...

feel free to join me

formula=

XYxyxyxy20XXxxxyxxxyxxxxxx3f
---------------------------------------
Yyyy Yyyyyyyy

(right???)

SOOO
if we look at it from the HEX point of view, as if we weren't supposed to solve the letters and tach jsut gave it to us as a Hex problem is it possible that it is (the underscores _ sybolize the y's):

_ _ _ _ = Xyxyxyxy

20

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ = XXxxxyxxxyxxxxxx

3f

SO if this is the case 1c and 1 f as spaces would fit in there some how....
it works 12 file names, 12 empty spaces to figure out
soooo that is all i've come up with...some of you are faster then I am so i welcome you to look at it and join me.

or am I jsut slow in figuring this out.

edited: found an error in the formation...fixxed it.

edited again...because i'm an idiot and blind and haven't been paying really good attention...i jsut realized this is EXSACTLY what you have all been doing ... feel free to bitch slap me!
