Vanishing Awards


Recommended Posts

Awards for the best MISS-clues, or miscues. The funniest, wildest, stupidest, smartest, etc. solutions/clues that we all thought we had figured out that turned out to be nothing but our imaginations.

Some people here went off on some wild tangents that were off the wall. When this contest is finished we'll know more of what was right and wrong. But we can get started with the awards now.

Post the "Best" Solutions here.

Sounds like fun.

OK I'll start with one. At some moment many of us were almost close to accept that "she" was a "he",

it was really funny to read about many conspiracy theories related to his/her sex change.

Cheers

Funniest Solution to Nothing Award

I still think that shadow of the light fixture on the wall she was motioning to was a shadow of her Kitsune foxtail... yeah

Funniest Final Question Solution

whitejames,

please enlighten me with your brilliance...what did you come up with for the final answer?? And how did you come to that conclusion?? Sure I'm thinking into things way too much, but we all are!!

That wasn't my real answer, but just a thought...

I know you were just joking, silkysmooth. I thought it was a hilarious joke, I liked it! Especially with the I'm going to bed now at the end. Funny stuff!

As for my brilliance, well that foxtail idea is the extent of it %)

I'll enter my great guess...

If you look at a phone and enter the Left, right, up down thing, you can end up with only two sets of phone numbers missing the last number (which we hadn't gotten yet) for a 7 digit phone number. Add an appropriate area code, like 425 (Microsofts area) and in all cases you get the Bellevue Westin, a hotel that is often used for Microsoft guests and has a striking resemblence to the challenge video hotel room. So I figured if I could just ask for the correct name, I would find Loki.

Ok,..... I was wrong but it looked good at the time!

Let us not forget PI - pi was everywhere in this game with massive speculation about its significance...anyone find that significance yet?

Oh, and the cat/fox "image" in the second video that was really her arm from the previous frame

BTW - who has been noticing "clues" in other parts of their life completely unrelated to VPG? I'm anagramming everything now...it's a disease.

    • low latency mode is still bugged and causing bootup times slow to a crawl. To fix, you have to disable the feature with vivetool. Seems as though it's not rolled out to a lot of people yet since I've only been able to find only a handful of people that are having issues.
    • I would recommend the Nothing 2a. The battery life is awesome, 2 or 3 days without going into battery power mode. The only thing that I've been looking into recently is that it doesn't "support" Graphene OS. I'm pretty sure there is a way, I just need to do some more looking.
    • You'd have to show me an example of a listing that says Gen 1, usually i'd expect that to mean Snapdragon Gen 1 (a type of chipset, which the Pixels don't use). Pixel 7 - White - 128gb - Unlocked - 85%+ battery - Grade B+ - $159 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/398046617206 Pixel 7 - Obsidian - 128gb - Unlocked - 80%+ battery - Very Good - $157 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/355617734563 Both look to be sold by companies with good feedback, dealing with refurbished phones and state the phones are unlocked with a clean IMEI. Obviously I can't vouch for either company though, but the listings look good in my opinion.
    • Because Chrome is doing it. And no one said anyone had to update immediately. That's silly. They could update every day for all I care as long as it's fast, and the next time the browser restarts, you're good. And the basic point is not to tee it up for bigger updates. As it is right now, all the windows I had open reopen anyway except inprivate.
    • Why? Does anybody actually want this? The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install, just so that there’s a integrated coupon manager feels like a waste of everyone’s time
