Puzzle Box 4


Recommended Posts

It seems odd that they would have given us clues on Monday if it had been solved on Sunday. But it seems like a long way to go to trick us. Not thrilled if it was a guess but in the end this was a community puzzle and it all comes down to who hit submit first. So congratulations and good luck to everyone in the drawing.

Well.. here's a way we can prove or disprove if you really got it. Let us know EXACTLY what you're having engraved on the chips.. that way when they produce them you'll either get applauded for your answer or you'll be flamed worse than the guy that claimed TiffanyTeen was his g/f for like 85 pages in a forum... *shrugs*

"Neowin & Unfiction"

or possibly "get a mac" :)

I agree, if it wasn't for everyone's insite from both of these sites, I don't think anyone would have solved it. It took a lot of us working together and I don't think it's right for only one person to get full credit for everyone else's work.

why not just say your name?

it's going to be printed on the CPU for all to see anyhow...

just seems weird that the email comes before the thing even finishes

Of course it's weird. That's because it's not true !!!

The contest is not over and the winner has not been notified. Plain and simple.

Maybe we can get back to discussing the REAL answer ?!?

The winner would have definetly be announced by now.

BELIEVE ME, an e-mail would NOT have anything misspelled...LOL that guy TRIED HARD..but misspelled something, unfortunately...for him, lol.

DId you guys see her (loki)'s MySpace page? lol......anyone can link me?

no it wouldn't.

press releases are scheduled, and considering the scope of this contest, i'd put a dollar or two on it being announced either following the drawings tonight or tomorrow around 10am or 12pm.

consider this; L.O.K.I Said she majored in 4 areas in college: Physics, Stage Arts, History, and Folklore

Lorelei - is German Folklore.

Odessa - Ukraine Colony founded by Greece, History

Kara - Asian Comic, South Korea, Stage Arts

I??? - Physics

If you subtract all the x and y distances from the coordinates, the length of the hypotenuse ends up on a town called Ida ( on the line from Mystery Spot to Hardee). Ida Tacke was a famous chemists/physicist that was the first to discover fission(smallest places ), posthumously, and the mass defect(Physical presence not required) associated with it.

I think Ida may be the last word.

no it wouldn't.

Yes press releases are scheduled. Also, unless the person already got the relaese info in the mail and got it back to whoever may send it they will not release the name (laws and such) so it probably will not be released until the next day, given the 24 hour thing on the main prize that seems fair that it would take 48 hours from notification.

Brilo is having a blast here, lol........

There's just ONE thing (out of many) that makes me NOT BELIEVE Brilo--that spelling mistake.

Brilo..to answer your "question"...NO..there is NOTHING any of us can do to UN-white that out....

Hurry while ur typing it up now im your Blank e-mail! :) lol

ok...no problem. Any suggestions?

In all honestly, if I were to have won, my plan was to put the prize up for auction on ebay (assuming this is allowable). Then contact the PR departments of Microsoft, AMD, and 42 Entertainment so they can help promote the prize/auction to various news agencies. I have a hard time seeing how they would turn down all of this extra publicity.

Then donate a large portion of the ?earnings? to charity and a portion to Neowin for hosting the site.

After all, if Golden Palace Casino (I think that?s their name) will pay $25k for a Grilled Cheese sandwich, what is the value of their name printed on thousands of AMD processors?

Just my thoughts.

    • 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.
