get in binches, we're going parade ruining
did you think being dead could stop me from gagtagging? you were wrong
i love how everyone is just. done.
I'M LIVING FOR THIS FLATLY DELIVERED SASS ALL AROUND
sarge standing here expecting sakura to ruin the parade
everyone is so done, i'm laughing
I'm so thankful for keith
im so nervous already and its been five minutes
think of all the non-kinoyaki foods available, Sarge
"make your dumb villain speech already"
"welp time to disarm a nuke"
I feel like somewhere clarisse feels a sudden urge to do absolutely nothing
joke's on you that's been her constantly forever since dying
like when you feel like you need to boycott a product but you already don't buy it anyway
throws in gag comment bc i had to
phone tagging atm but i can’t miss this
Alright, since people seem to want to go save the town, the top-levels have been made. Feel free to discuss and decide how you'll tackle this
If you'll split or go as a group or anything
sakura did bring up splitting up, so
ye i’m down for splitting up
yeah splitting up is cool with me
how exactly are we splitting up btw, i'm good with w/e
whoever ends up with bolin i’m gonna be slow and phonetagging for like the next hour or so?
partyraven nat would want to go with him because of course she would if you want to tackle one of the locations together!
Just been trying to think of where to jump in
so we have a pair for each place it seems!
oocly, we will be giving you guys the puzzles one at a time, as a heads up! this is so all of you can brainstorm if needed, since there will be a time limit on each of them.
natalie and keet's worst first date
Yeah, we wouldn't want to overwhelm you all with four difficult puzzles at once
becoming: yeah that works for me! nat and keith can go together
gotcha! one of the later ones might work best for me if that’s cool with you maru, i’m still on the way home
Whenever any of you is ready, just get to a location and you'll receive the puzzle and time limit!
so one of the earlier buildings would be best
yep! that's fine with me, I'mh ere and settled for the evening
we can hop into place 1 I guess!
Who wants to go somewhere with Niwa +_+ I'm here for another 2 and a half hours
lovebakery: are you fine with doing one of the later ones?
awesome, i can nyoom there then
Man I'm suddenly imagining the AU where the Sergeant does just take them all to the festival
Sargedad with the cast following him like ducklings
30 minutes left to solve a puzzle.
Whenever an answer is reached, Sakura or Kino may post it as a reply! This isn't restricted to just them OOC, feel free to solve too
can the wires overlap themselves?
Only one path is necessary
Wait, what do you mean, exactly?
well here is one option I think
okay yeah i get what we're looking for
and when I say overlap I meant can the wire like trail over itself, like snaking back onto a path it took already to reach a different circle
If you feel confident about it, feel free to submit it for evaluation, Dani! Don't worry, you get more than one chance
i got this as an option too
that ssshould be 7 circles, and 4 turns?
Remember to submit your solution as a reply to the puzzle itself, please!
I keep getting confused trying to count turns and circles at the same time while looking at those solutions, haha
Yeah, we're still trying to figure out the best one I think! or can we submit multiple attempts?
Submit multiple attempts if you'd like
oh ok I wasn't sure if it'd explode on us for the wrong one
ah, that's the same as the best I've managed so far
and that's with a circle at each turn so to do any better you need to have at least one circle you pass through without turning
yeah but even when you can get that there are also turns without circles
and it seems the most circles you get in a striaght line is 3
my attempt
I'm gonna submit that one if it's okay!
fingers crossed
no problem
but also
partyraven i just got home if you want to take the next one!
Another pair please pick a location!
Maybe 3? If we're just going down the list in chronological order
becoming Sorry, copypasted the wrong flavor text there for a moment. No saw, my bad
oh woops do i also have to delete
i'm counting eeeeeighteen?
I think I've got nineteen
A-am I miscounting... I'm getting nineteen
yeah i think that's right
okay i noticed i missed one on my initial count so yeah, 19 should be right
oh i see which one i missed on that diagram you labelled
okay! i can put it in real quick
Yeah, that was a mistake from our part
Looks like I wasn't quick enough removing it, hah
I have my tablet out, it's v helpful here
yeah i have photoshop open myself
i guess i should have edited that tag, i wasn't sure what had gotten removed. oh well
I'm imagining us all hunched over tablets, tablet pens poised at the ready
haha i just have a mouse because i'm a sad person
I have a tablet but I used a mouse...
WHOOOOOAH, LIVING ON A PRAYER
Ran, Des, you're up. Ashley will post yours in a moment!
Don't worry, the answer was correct
I was already squinting at the picture again
just because we were correct doesn't mean something bad isn't happening
dang I was gonna say that
/zelda treasure chest music
Dani repaid my efforts LMAO thank you
You guys are flying through these, wow
i figured out those bits needed to go together somehow but now how
shapes are good to my brain apparently
I think they'd be equally good at this so wanna just roll a dice
odds it's niwa, evens it's gant [dice]
i walk away to grab a snack and dani has ascended to wizard form
...what’s the code for that
Apparently you gotta do parenthesis instead of brackets
They just both hold the saw at the same time
I see two threes and two fours
it's one of those saws where you can hold both ends
one of them holds it and the other saws
there are two man saws yall
wood is just a part of a tree
I ACTUALLY RUSHED TO PUT THAT TOGETHER JUST BECAUSE I THOUGHT SURELY SOMEONE ELSE WAS SOLVING IT QUICKLY TOO HAHA
whats a wooden plank but a tiny dead tree
it's a dismembered tree corpse
...I think deciding who would icly solve that puzzle took longer than actually solving the puzzle
maybe that was the real puzzle
the real puzzle was the ties we made along the way
Get ready for puzzle #4, coming at you. You guys are doing wonderfully!
more smoke....................
June, Wolf, headsup! Yours is incoming!
Sorry for the delay! My whole brain just had a creativity blank, for some reason.
sorry for that misfire, thought it'd be better to reply to osomatsu
The hardest puzzle and it goes to these dorks
sarge is punishing us for our hubris
they just turn around and start yelling HEEEELP
all I managed was to make the blue lines line up
yeah i was trying to make the green lines line up
that doesn't seem to be possible
my puzzle solving is like bolin's
"let me spin this thing around until it makes sense"
holy crap i just opened that
going with oso and bolin's idea of getting 22 shapes in the center, there's this
ah i was counting triangles and circles
do they get multiple tries on this one?
yeah, more than one try is allowed!
Look there's only 4^4 = 256 permutations it'll be fine
i've gotten to 20 triangles
oh thank god they can try multiple answers
I don't think there's enough triangles either...
I could be counting wrong but
oh wait i think i got 22??
unless im counting wrong
triangles
do you wanna try triangles first?
confirming counts on both
y'all have the ability to correctly count small shapes
if not, you have multiple shots at least.
I ended up just looking at the number in each quadrant to see if there was a combination that makes 22
who let bolin and oso by themselves to solve a puzzle
Everyone was too polite to call them stupid
they had no choice but to let them go off together
im just imagining the town blowing up and everyone reconvening at the ruins of the motel like "wtf bolin, oso, HOW DID YOU FAIL THIS SHIT THOSE PUZZLES WERE EASY"
I'M SORRY FOR THE WEIRD CONGRATULATIONS SUBJECT HEADER my computer froze the fuck up and decided to do that.
they...........half did ti? ? ?
so they need to put in both 22s?
CHEERS FROM THE BUSHES CONGRATS GUYS
ok OSO DO YOU WANNA DO THE CIRCLES
Oh wait I read that wrong still tho!
bolin slapped it once but go ahead and get in the killing blow
it's okay, that's my bad for the confusion there.
Bolin: slaps puzzle this bad boy can fit so much frustration in it
my browser wanted to give it to you right there, i guess??
listen to your browser, think of these poor dumb boys
everyone dies of carbon monoxide poisoning
the paper will be coming in a little!
Okay that was beautiful great job guys!
im ... extremely reluctant about believing nothing bad is happening
on the deadland side, everything explodes
Aw yay Lucille is out of the hospital
The Thursday weather is such a mood
