@Trickster: Idk what post you quoted? There's a much longer post with multiple quotes in it now.

[Keil]

Wait a sec, I missed that. Was that when Kelvin felt sorry for him after all the effort he put into his screenies?

 

Yes.

 

Is this challenge impossible? Is there no true "correct" answer? If someone were to get the correct answer, you could easily respond with an answer that would negate whatever they've said and we wouldn't know any better

 

No.

 

To be frank, the actual puzzle challenge has been barely touched.

 

Proving me to be a liar is not impossible, but because I must always tell the truth, things get unnecessarily messy. It's still worth a try though.

Is there math involved in the puzzle?

Is the answer a punchline to a joke?

[Keil]

Is the answer related to the intentional direct communication between two specific people, excluding yourself, on this thread?

 

 

No.

 

Is there math involved in the puzzle?

 

Yes.

 

(If you mean math as in logic and structured way of thinking based on the natural physical order, then yes because that was a stretch in which math is involved, however, the numbers kind where you have to do anything arithmetic and above, no.)

 

Does everyone start to understand why this puzzle is so difficult? @Ladida is right on the money

[Pryanka]

Is it being philosophical or and deducing something that's the key?

[Keil]

I reread your accusation post @Pryanka, but the problem is the same.

 

Can I just say that that point to say that it's impossible for me to admit to posting on one page and not the other is just a series of unfortunate events because I was forced to state the truth even if means considering factors that isn't easily visible to everyone. It is possible.

 

And the thing is I can't explain the proof because doing so will give off information that will help reveal the solution outside the intended way to discover it.

 

If you ask questions, maybe we can reach a point where I can show you all proof of the contradiction is plausible and I've been telling the truth the entire time.

Yes.

Was it possible to win in the second post of the thread? (Eg. Posting directly after yours)

 

Edit: I think this question is nulled because I didn't wait for someone else to post before asking. I'm a little hazy on question rules exactly to be honest.

You can just ask again in a little while though 😊

I'm a bit confused as well on that P: 

so I'll ask my question again I suppose.

No.

 

Just to point out that you all can ask questions even if I'm away. I'll answer them whenever I get back. I'll be here for a bit longer because I'm just watching Ted Talks.

Is the answer related to any person's incorrect grammatical usage in any post in this thread?

Yes.

Yes.

You say that Trickster almost won on the 2nd page. Did this user also almost win on the 1st page?

[Ladida]

Seeing how you're must answer any Y/N question truthfully, can we treat this thread as an AMA?

Is the answer to quote a post that makes use of incorrect grammar, and correct it?

No.

 

I like the way you think.

Say hypothetically the thread were to be locked the moment someone won. Would the winner then be the last post in the thread?

(took a shower and was pondering, now I have plenty of good questions!)

 

Is the right track to winning asking someone other than you a question?

[Prisca]

Are you intentionally making gramatical errors in your posts?

I feel like this whole thing about "the someone not posting on the 1st page" is just a technicality. I honestly think @Trickster has some reason why he is not the same "someone" posting on the first page. I mean, when it comes down to it you could make up reasons as silly as "I am not the same someone I was an hour ago because I have changed since then". It's easy to think of clever/silly reasons to justify a yes or no question. I just don't think it's worth focusing on.

 

No question, just my thoughts.

Question for @Trickster: Do you (Trickster) have to post after an individual (say individual X) in order for individual X to win?

No.

 

If the winner completes the objective, I'll make a post saying congratulations, but the congratulation post isn't necessary for their victory. In that regard, I could have already given the winner their prize and just not say that the puzzle is over (just a prove a point in saying I don't have to post anything after X for X to win. No one has completed the objective yet).

[Pryanka]

Is correcting somebody's grammar part of the objective?
