Yeah, but you are not taking into account that those days are not a loss. Says so right there.

Are you trying to say that I should subtract the 3 days spent in bed from the 8 years?

If they are not count as a loss, then those years only lose 364 days instead of 365.

Just noticing that the instructions seem as specific as every other OpAphid/Tachyon puzzle, with the same obvious bits we're looking past a little.

i already woke up my gf to listen to It Takes Two and verify the 2s and 3s. :lol:

personally I like easier puzzles. i think we're being punished for all the lat/longitude theories and people not getting the obvious story-driven ones we've been given so far. thanks a lot :twisted:

The great thing about this is that every new person who hears the clips might recognize the songs. We all have lots of musical tastes to draw on.

Covedweller, what is your take on this one


I. Song #3: Add up the 1's mentioned. Any 1 counts, but "ones" don't.

any 1 means any variation and/or 'anyone'

is the word 'ones' in the song? just thinking that its in quotes, so that means more literal meaning

I believe it means to count anytime it says "one" in the context of the actual number. As in, if I said "that one is big!" it wouldn't count. but if i said "I have one foot" it would count

N. Song #12: "Might as well," how many times?

Hole - Use Once And Destroy
It's the emptiness that follows you down
It's the ache inside when it all burns out
It's poisonous it muscles it aches
It's everything you had when it breaks

It's the emptiness that's all you have left
Too terrified of your frozen breath
It's a bitter mouth it's buttered and knived
It's the awful truth you fight for your life

It might as well it might as well hurt
It might as well it might as well

I went down to rescue you
I went all the way down
Fill your hungry wretched life
Here they come it's closing time

It's the bitter root it's twisted inside
It's the heart you used to have when it died
It's the emptiness it poisons it lies
It's everything that you'll never find

It might as well it might as well hurt
It might as well it might as well

I went down for the remains
Sort through all your blurs and stains
Take your rapture blister burns
Stand in line it's not your turn

All dressed in red, always the bride
Off with her head, all dressed in white
Off with her head

I went down to rescue you
I went all the way down
I went down for the remains
Sort through all your blurs and stains

Ooh, I will follow you
Anytime anywhere
Ooh, when they come for you
Just say you don't care
I got 8
