As you can see from the time stamps it was a short night for me...work, work, work. I thought I would add a quick addendum to my Computer Puzzle Alert novel. As it turns out, and after I thought about it a bit, having the alert on the full page does churn out false positives. I verified that overnight cause every 30 minutes I got an alert that the page had changed. Well of course comparing page 105 with the current page 109 will always cause a miscompare. DUH! Anyway the alert might still work as long as you stay on that page but I think you may have the same problem. Once the page has been edited and it differs from your alert you will get false positives. Need to do more research I guess. You will just have to be aware of when the page rolls over and update the alert accordingly. Or because I had inklings that this might occur and why I set up the second alert! The second alert seems to be more consistant. I would still probably set up the page alert also incase the first page isn't updated promptly. It also helps to see what other activity is going on in the thread. Well its off to work, hopefully the strong winds are with me and I save on gas. Either that or I break out my umbrella and fly to work. Later peoples.
??? Well, the Dispensing machine is still not convinced that I deserve its attention... It gave me another puzzle to work out... Help! These are getting really hard!
Hey happy people, my first thought here is "Look up!" The detective is looking with his magnifying glass, and the fish is jumping up. And the man in the red shirt is looking up. And if the jogger should look up to avoid being crushed. Then you've got the "+ML <up arrow>".... so "M.... LOOK UP" So what's the M?
Alright, my first thoughts are: spied+er+fish=SPIDERFISH OR spotted+angel+fish=SPOTTEDANGELFISH AND box+sing=BOXING I'm feeling pretty shaky about my first thoughts tho!
Finally a moment of free time. I was thinking along the same lines as cjsbug, and here is what I thought of, although it sounds like from garbot1 that I'm on the wrong track also. detective: look at boy/man: look up fish: look over boy in box: look or look in opera singer: out airconditioner falling on jogger: below so what do you get: LOOKAT LOOKUP LOOKOVER LOOKOUTBELOW so the boxboy: could be LOOKIN then OUT and BELOW all of this is telling us different ways to LOOK, so take it a step further and you get FIND or SEARCH. I can't figure out +ML<up arrow> other than the <up arrow> may mean uppercase.
I thought staulcubs answers were pretty clever also. I was thinking the boy was acting like a little angel.
I don't know why I'm still up. Its been almost 20 hours today so far or was that yesterday!?! I had a few more ideas I've been working on but nothing is coming of it. Before I go to bed here they are. the <up arrow> of the +ML could actually be a melting 'T' and then it could read '+MLT' = MELT, possibly MALT boxboy = I opera = scream I scream = icecream +MLT = icecream malt detective = spot a clue, boy = spot something, fish = spotted fish, boxboy = box seat, opera = spot light jogger = wrong spot detective magnifying glass reflection on his hat boy is in a state of reflection the fish image has a reflection in the water all the other objects have a shadow reflection something like REFLECTIVE MELT = ICE, MIRROR, IMAGE, SNOW, GLACIERS, BUTTER, ICECUBE, ICEBERG, WATER, SUN, SUNLIGHT, HEAT, LIGHT REFLECT REFLECTIONSHADOWMELT REFLECTSHADE REFLECTIVESHADES = SUNGLASSES SHADOW, SHADOWS Thats all I have thought of so far. Since tomorrow is already here, I better head off to bed before I meet my daughter getting up for school.
Okay you have my undivided attention for the next 30 seconds, what kind of help do you propose? I would really hate to go to bed and find out it was solved minutes after that.
I am kinda of wondering about the wording garbot1 just used 'Sounds'. If you notice in the picture the opera singer is the only one making noise.
