Puzzle Box 4


Recommended Posts

How did you arrive at the Ivy answer before knowing the location of Hardee Mississippi?

I admit, I did it by accident and bundled with shear stupidity and I haven't changed it because I have no clue what the answer is.

I think this is someone trying to get everyone to stop trying.

Raze50 posted this on Unfiction... pretty clever catch I thought:

"she says it right there at the end..."Go to the directory L-O-K-Ivy"!"

I have it. It has been in front of us all along. Microsoft has been playing the answer all over the place. And the winner is WOW. Everything they put out wants people to think WOW. Even their website. Just think about it. All of us will be going WOW this s#!^ was HARD. And the person who actually wins their name writtne on a chip living in a computer will be going WOW, I spent all this time on this stinking puzzle for what again. And finally, WOW, how the he!! did they get that from those clues. Just kidding. We all seem to be spinning our wheels. I hope after the close of the game tonight they post whatever the answer is so we can all go WOW, now I'm going to bed to get the long deserved rest from this game. Now send us some laptops :)

<start>

<morning>

Kataka rises first; the sun follows.

I make tea

Two cranes stand still in the water of the

pond. Which is the reflection?

</morning>

<workday>

Her mind: a swallow

Mine: a stream

Together: harmony

</workday>

<evening>

Fierce thought mellows, sun melts

Slips sizzling into the sea.

Outside my paper walls

Fireflies write poetry on the night air

</evening>

<sleep>

Drift of hair

Rise of chest, and fall

Slow tide

After years in millions, the mysterious sea

Still rocks and whispers

In her animal body.

</sleep>

<repeat>

I fully support the loki/ivy tie in at this point.(on a maybe ending small note) sorry. 0_o

Praise God for spinning chairs. I am already spinning and WHOOPing, if I were on the ground my but would be pollished

I think my wife just won to let you know. She just got an email from some guy saying she was the first to enter it right. I totally gave her the answer (I went with Iva, it means "great gift") but I had her enter Ivy. Some guy from Marden-Kane wrote the email.

Hey guys, I'm from Unfiction. Is this true? If so could you post the e-mail for us all to see brilo211, please!!! I'd like to know if I can stop overloading my brain.

Thanks

EDIT: THANK YOU BRILO211

    • Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is getting a simultaneous release across PC and all consoles by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Square Enix showed up to the Summer Game Fest presentation today with multiple trailers showing off its next chapter in the Final Fantasy VII Remake saga. The final chapter of this trilogy now has an official name too, with it being dubbed Final Fantasy VII Revelation, following up Final Fantasy VII Remake and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth from recent years. Vincent Valentine, Cid, Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and more showed up in the trailers as they battle against enemies, or 'Weapons,' from the final chapter. "As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, the final battle against Sephiroth begins," says the trailer description. "A meteor mars the sky, monstrous planetary guardians wreak havoc across the globe, and the fires of war rage. Now, Cloud and his companions must stand against this chaos to not only decide the planet's fate, but bring a legendary conflict to its conclusion." Following the reveal trailer, the show also dropped some gameplay footage that shows off a new way to travel across the open world using the Highwind airship. Players will be able to swap characters on during battles, use tactical mode to synchronize with allies, and summon their entities. Cid Highwind and Vincent Valentine are joining the party this time too. “FINAL FANTASY VII, first released in 1997, has been beloved by fans for many years and has since become a “legend” in its own right," added producer Yoshinori Kitase. "The FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series that began in 2020 with everyone’s passionate support is finally reaching its climactic finale with FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION. The story’s final destination represents my emotions spanning thirty years working on this title" One of the biggest revelations of this announcement, however, was the multiplatform release confirmation from the get-go. Square Enix will be releasing Final Fantasy VII Revelation across PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 in Spring 2027 without any timed exclusivity programs.
    • Hello, Having a simple utility to allow Microsoft's customers to configure the context menu, with a few options like showing the current menu, showing a proposed menu/alternate configurations, loading and saving the settings, and a "reset to default" option would have solved this. Let Microsoft provide a recommended default look-and-feel, maybe a couple alternative configurations, like a basic/simplified version of that, and a more advanced version for that, and that would have been very well-received, I think. Microsoft could even had offered a library of different configurations, similar to what they have done in the past for Windows Media Player skins, Themes, and desktop wallpaper.

    • No Steam release. It's gonna fail on PC. Even an Epic Online engineer said that people go there for the free stuff and then immediately go back to Steam.
    • Nice. Admittedly, his other games never interested me, but this seems pretty cool.
    • It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.
