You're half right there, Diamond, though you did get what was cryptic about it. Bravo! :D

Valesse 08-26-2006 09:25 AM

The hint refers to both a person and a post they made.

Rune Son of Bjarne 08-26-2006 02:21 PM

Random Guess: Formendacil ?

Valesse 08-26-2006 10:13 PM

Noooo...

"Gran'maa" (anagram) meter are part of the same clue.

Gran'maa meter from the heart.

Valier 08-29-2006 10:52 AM

Could it be Meneltarmacil? :D

Valesse 08-30-2006 10:27 AM

No. :(

The downer I'm looking for is also fairly well... versed, though. So you're on the right track.

versed... meter... versed? Eh? Eh?

mormegil 08-30-2006 10:29 AM

Mithalwen?

Valier 08-30-2006 11:11 AM

Anguriel? :D

Rune Son of Bjarne 08-30-2006 11:25 AM

lmp ?

Gil-Galad 08-30-2006 02:19 PM

Rimbaud?

Eomer of the Rohirrim 08-30-2006 02:24 PM

Inktomi Slurp Spider?


Seriously, I thought you had to explain your answer? :p

Gil-Galad 08-30-2006 02:25 PM

well, Rimbaud because of his Perilous Poet PT

Valesse 08-30-2006 04:30 PM

Gil-Galad, it is your thread!

Though I would like to hear Eomer's reasoning, I suppose that it is simply the legendary "un-reasoning". :D

Gil-Galad 08-31-2006 01:08 AM

Don't hate me cause i'm hip


a super easy one

Eomer of the Rohirrim 08-31-2006 08:06 AM

Not exactly. Inktomi Slurp Spider is, by definition, the answer to most problems.

Because you say it's super-easy, Gil, I'm thinking it might be the phantom, always slightly concerned that people will be jealous of his awesomeness.

Glirdan 08-31-2006 10:31 AM

Or perhaps it you Gil? :p

Gil-Galad 08-31-2006 12:26 PM

no its not the phantom or yours truly, keep guessing, it is easier then you think

Valier 09-01-2006 12:01 PM

Is it something someone said in a sig? I need a bit of a hint.... ;)

Gil-Galad 09-01-2006 01:46 PM

nothing with a sig, or PT. its more of a description of the person.

Eomer of the Rohirrim 09-01-2006 03:02 PM

Feanor of the Peredhil, for the same reason I guessed the phantom. :D

Gil-Galad 09-01-2006 04:26 PM

Post #3999
 
nope keep guessing, i'll give another hint after a couple more hints

Valier 09-01-2006 04:48 PM

Well really Gil.......There a lot of members who could be considered hip. :D
Is this "hipness" assigned by you, or do others think they are hip too? :p

mormegil 09-01-2006 07:37 PM

I'm guessing you Gil. You might be cheeky enough to give that hint.

Gil-Galad 09-01-2006 08:56 PM

i've already been guessed and its not me

now i forgot the hint i was going to give...

oh yes!

look at the lesser-known members.

Holbytlass 09-02-2006 03:33 PM

Is it narfforc? He talked of being hippy on another thread.

Hookbill the Goomba 09-04-2006 02:15 AM

Nilp?
He's pretty hip. Although, I know of few people who hate him for it... He did start the Mount Zoom Challenge, though... that's probably reason enough. :p

Kath 09-04-2006 10:25 AM

Hookbill, I just read that as 'Nilp is pretty'. Gave me pause for thought for a moment! :D

Hmm, what about old Roggie of Morgoth? He seems pretty hip, whether he's controlled by HI or Fea.

Gil-Galad 09-04-2006 12:01 PM

no no no, think of lesser-known downers, you will probably have to look this one up in the...i don't know, the members list! use its features! it will be staring right at you when you see it.

hint: look for red

Laiudanama 09-04-2006 03:56 PM

Alright....bigbrotherfan? She/He (I'm guessing a she) is certainly in the red, and she has Nikki from Big Brother as her avatar, so...?

Diamond18 09-04-2006 05:42 PM

Or fairychick101 perhaps?

My other guess would be **sparkle fairy**

Gil-Galad 09-04-2006 07:42 PM

Diamond has it, the most neg repped member of this forum...

Diamond18 09-05-2006 12:58 AM

Thank you, Gil.

I'm a million different people from one day to the next

The Saucepan Man 09-05-2006 02:37 AM

That is a line from Bittersweet Symphony by the Verve.

Encaitare's PT is Bittersweet Symphony.

So it must be Encaitare.

Diamond18 09-05-2006 05:53 AM

Correct you are, PanMan.

I was kind of hoping the numerical aspect would serve as a red herring to those not familiar with the song, but oh well. :p

The Saucepan Man 09-05-2006 07:34 AM

Well, since it is one of my all-time favourite songs (and, indeed, PTs), there was no chance of sneaking it past me ... :p :D

Next up:

Sounds like a chip off the old block.

I want to say: "The Saucepan Child" but since that member dosen't exist, I'm going to say...

Rune Son of Bjarne

Eomer of the Rohirrim 09-05-2006 09:09 AM

Potatothan. :D

The Saucepan Man 09-06-2006 04:41 AM

Nope. Neither of those, I am afraid. Hookbill is thinking along the right lines though.

Rune's name suggests that he is a "chip off the old block" in the sense that I am thinking. But you need to consider the relevance of the words "Sounds like ...".

Hmmm... I'm going to say: Child of the 7th Age , as 'Of the' sounds a little like 'off the'... and being a 'child' and all that...

The Saucepan Man 09-07-2006 06:32 AM

Nope. "Sounds like ..." has its cryptic clue meaning.
