Ditch Fahrenheit's Journal 7 7

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

 

New rule - applies to threads started after 7/9/2015

 

Added:

 

A return policy must be stated with any time limits indicated. It is acceptable to say "No time limit" and/or "No returns" and/or have time limits that vary by reason for return e.g. "30 day return for any reason. No time limit returns for "not as described'". But time limits must be stated.

[Ken Aldred]

Shouldn't the number of points decrease as more panels and clues are given and it gets easier?

I thought about that, but what usually happens is that people lose interest if they can't solve it right away.

 

My thoughts are that a ramping point scale increases interest and the desire to solve it.

Shouldn't the number of points decrease as more panels and clues are given and it gets easier?

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

And, of course, since negative points don't exist, you would only have a finite number of panels to reveal.

 

Example: Start out at 5 points, go to 4, 3, 2, 1. Now what?

 

I was archiving unsolved books before, but it's way too much work to keep up and seems to confuse people.

[HarveySwick]

Once it gets to 1, it gets archived.

[Ken Aldred]

4 panel reveals and clues should be enough.

Hint Summary

 

Charlton Publications

Reprint of earlier Charlton Publications stories

60 cent cover

1983

"ugh" on cover

 

My dog could solve this with a smartphone, and he's never seen a comic book before. There are not that many Charlton covers from '83.

 

 

 

Note - Dog ownership and alleged ability to operate smartphone for dramatic purposes only.

Beyond the Grave 11

[HarveySwick]

 

Yeah, I'm stumped on this one.

New panel in 30 minutes.

 

 

 

He used the wrong turn signal.

 

Chevy trucks...nothin' but problems.

 

 

 

These little gifs are like mini post-modern morality plays. I now want to know everything about his family for at least three generations.

 

Faulkner would have loved gifs.

 

 

 

“I decline to accept the end of man... I refuse to accept this. I believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail."

Note: This includes Ken's 5 points from yesterday that I was too lazy to post.

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

New round coming after I eat lunch.

 

I'll give 15 minutes notice.

[Ogami]

I should get participation points.

 

And a pretty pony.

[Ogami]

And they should be more than what Park currently has.

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

I'll get you the pony, but no points or I'd be arrested for inciting a riot.

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

New round in 15 minutes.
