- Woah, buddy! Cut it down to size! Also, it's multiple layers of coding. Soo... keep at it.-- Quizzical Quiz Speak 19:23, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- This is like solving a freaking Zodiac Killer letter... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 19:35, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- The numeric translation appears to be ternary (base three). However, a simple conversion to base 10 gives a freakishly large number...kudos to you, Bronz. --Pedentic 20:37, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- OK...lets start simple....we'll convert this to base 2 first... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:38, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- Judging from everything, the numbers are seperated into groups of twos...ternary is consist of numbers 0, 1, and 2...converting to binary...the numbers are 0 and 1...therefore...9 in ternary should be 100, while in binary...it should be 1001...Am I on the right track? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:43, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- My apologies: I meant base 4, which would use 0-3. You could keep on with ternary, though, if you want to. --Pedentic 22:21, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- Here's my understanding of this...Computers use binary codes for everything. Therefore, this might first be coded into binary, then translated to ternary, and then Morse code. I believe the last code we need to solve is the binary code. Assuming we're able to translate all this ternary into binary. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 22:23, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- I'm working off the assumption that the encrypted thing is a block of text. That being said, I've changed Axe Hack's string of numbers into binary and converted that to text. Therefore, I guess: ÍÝÝÌŒÜÝÜÈÍÝÝÌŒÍÜÌÈÌÝÍÝŒÝÍÌÈÌÝÌÍŒÝÍÝÈÌÝÍÜŒÍÌÌÈÌÝÌÍŒÝÍÝÈÌÝÏv37s7c7w3r37s7c3w7637swc3w363w7w#3w7r377w�. If at first you don't succeed... --Pedentic 23:30, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- Holy crap...This isn't ternary...this is quaternary!!! We've been going about this all wrong! We convert this to ternary, then binary...let's try that! --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:46, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, it's much easier to convert to binary straight from quaternary. Don't waste your time, though. It gives meaningless gibberish. Translation: I plugged the converted binary into 4 different binary-to-text converters and all came back as gibberish. But if you want the binary, I'd be happy to share it. Good luck, y'all. --Pedentic 11:08, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- I find it interesting that it's a quiz, but none of us can figure out the question. There is a question, right? --Pedentic 02:08, 31 March 2008 (BST)
Haha, wow. Just wow. --PdeqTalk* 05:12, 31 March 2008 (BST)
Nothing interesting? Or more specifically, "|\|07h1n6 1n73r3571n6."? --CWisGood 16:36, 2 April 2008 (BST)
- If one of the code layers is L337 (leet), as CWisGood suggested, I think I'll cry... --Pedentic 21:27, 2 April 2008 (BST)
- So much for our so-called alliance, Pedentic. We're both banging our heads on the keyboard here... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 21:29, 2 April 2008 (BST)
- Perhaps...I've still got a few things I'd like to try before a hint comes along. *crosses fingers* --Pedentic 03:17, 3 April 2008 (BST)
This thing, perhaps? --CWisGood 05:25, 3 April 2008 (BST)
- I highly doubt it. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 16:27, 4 April 2008 (BST)
- It's been over a month...Hint please? --Pedentic 00:06, 28 April 2008 (BST)
I think we can rule out simple numeric shift (like A=2 instead of 1 or something), as there are only about 5 different groups of two numbers. Perhaps it's significant that the numbers are in groups of two? --Pedentic 12:39, 27 May 2008 (BST)
- Maybe we're looking at a different language translated into numeric values... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 19:27, 27 May 2008 (BST)
- Nah, I'm keeping it in English and any common variations of English. Still, that's a good idea! -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 21:30, 27 May 2008 (BST)
- If anyone wishes to kill me because I placed a crazy idea in Bronz's mind, I live in NYC, so...yea...That's all I'm saying. Oh...And look for the heavily fortified house. That's where I live. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:11, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- Do you have a dog? Or a friend named greg? Is the answer a tale of two cities. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:17, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- No dogs. But I do have a bunch of Mudkips who are trained to kill anyone who tries to sneak pass the security check point about 5 miles away. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:24, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- Fool, you mudkips think in only 2 dimensions. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:26, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- Funny. Nintendo released Pokemon 3D in Asia a long time ago. Didn't you get the memo? My Mudkips are in the 3rd dimesion. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:28, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- Time you fool the 4th dimension. Mwah ha ha! Is it the first line of the bible? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:29, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- But then, the 5th dimension is even better. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:31, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- Why is it rated 5th then? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:32, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- Because it's higher than the forth. Also the fact that I have stashed a lot of scotch there... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:38, 28 May 2008 (BST)
Adding in a hint, the code is just one word. Also, I live in NYC too, Axe Hack! How odd. On the other hand, there's eleven million people in New York City. Enough to turn the geographically republican New York State a democratic state. Donkeys FTW! -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 21:06, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- o. hex k. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:25, 28 May 2008 (BST)
- Well...I live in Queens, and if you even want to see me for some odd reason, you can find me around Francis Lewis High School Mondays-Fridays. That is...If you think you can pick out the one person that is me out of the 4000+ students there... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 00:47, 29 May 2008 (BST)
- If the answer indeed is "hex" as Rosslessness suggested, could you perhaps explain the string of 0s 1s 2s and 3s? --Pedentic 03:27, 29 May 2008 (BST)
- Its not, i believe its same kind of crazy hexidecimal code within a code. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 12:27, 29 May 2008 (BST)
How interesting. I managed to misspell something in the message, so when it is fully decoded, it will be one letter off. If it looks like something is off, just try to think what would be an appropriate replacement to that one letter. In addition, I live in Queens too, the Astoria part of it, but I go to school in Manhattan. Hunter College High School. -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 21:34, 29 May 2008 (BST)
- Did CWisGood have it right when he guessed "|\|07h1n6 1n73r3571n6." (Nothing Interesting)? I ask because that's what I got when I decoded the above. Perhaps a reference to "A World Apart" by Gustaw Herling? --Pedentic 19:27, 30 May 2008 (BST)
- Oh poop. I thought I coded something else, and forgot. Bleb. Hey, I know! Looks like he wins! I think I'll be lazy and make the hint our net quiz. -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 21:38, 30 May 2008 (BST)
- Eh...You wouldn't like FLHS anyway. Did you know the principal walked out of his office drunk one time? That was 6 months ago. Funny sight, really. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 11:14, 9 June 2008 (BST)
- Perhaps a Quiz 12 is in order? --Pedentic 15:22, 24 June 2008 (BST)
- Blargh, I don't feel like continuing these. Anyone want this quiz? I'll get a sysop to move them. -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 20:22, 24 June 2008 (BST)

HINT:The second album by Dusted is called "safe".
Also, churned fresh or fermented cream or milk is called 'butter'. And a great voice boomed: Go forth and google the incredibly obvious hints!

What mammal must you be in order to stab someone?

... A man was sitting at home one evening, when the doorbell rang.
When he answered the door, a 6 foot tall cockroach was standing there.
The cockroach immediately punched him between the eyes and scampered off.
The next evening, the man was sitting at home when the doorbell rang again.
When he answered the door, the cockroach was there again. This time, it punched him, kicked him and karate chopped him before running away.
The third evening, the man was sitting at home when the doorbell rang. When he answered the door, the cockroach was there yet again.
It leapt at him and stabbed him several times before running off. The gravely injured man managed to crawl to the telephone and summoned an ambulance.
He was rushed to intensive care, where they saved his life. The next morning, the doctor was doing his rounds.
He asked the man what happened, so the man explained about the 6 foot cockroach's attacks, culminating in the near fatal stabbing.
The doctor thought for a moment and said,
"Yes, there's a nasty bug going around."--RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:31, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Thats the one. Now all you have to do is find the source to back it up. I suggest, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narwhal Apparently its the corpse whale. Very fitting.--RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:59, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
Quite fitting, yes. Oh, and a bunch of submarines got named after it apparently.--SeventythreeTalk 23:03, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

- Amen to that. I'm only so good with search engines. --PdeqTalk* 22:14, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
- Weel... Hint it is. If I see you guys are still having a bit of trouble with this, I might put up another, but this should be satisfactory if you've seen it before. -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 22:29, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
Kingdom of Loathing. Stab bats. Shot in the dark here, although the kingdom sounds vaguely familiar. --PdeqTalk* 02:41, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Ridiculous. I knew it was kingdom of loathing. Could I be bothered to search for stab bats? No. Which is why I have lost. AGAIN.--RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 18:27, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
- Or is it the rewinged stab bat? There is a difference between the two. Hmmm, tis a tough one. Acoustic Pie 21:44, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
So theres 2 mammals that can stab you in kingdom of loathing. The quiz is flawed. I preferred my duckbilled platypus answer.--RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:59, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Hahahaha! You have to put some effort into it, Rosslessness! Very good Pdeq! I should prohibit you from competing to give others a chance. You win! ^^ -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 21:47, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Reference Quiz #4
Okay... The next one will probably be fairly easy game. Also, I'm upping the prize to a very, very special compilation of all the generators I have collected in the katamari ball of my bookmarks. It is small, and cheap, but it's something. Also, anyone who gives me suggestions for prizes can be immortalized in the list of really nice peoples. My bets are on Pdeq. So the quote is...:
STOP THOSE MONKIES!
--Place guesses below here---
Dragonfable? Whats that?--RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:40, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- That is also the place I found. So if that's the answer, Rosslessness has ended my streak. And katamari is awesome. --PdeqTalk* 06:15, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
Bingo! Dragonfable is correct. Congratulations! I will find a way to give you that very special compilation... after the break!(Theme song plays)-- Quizzical Quiz Speak 13:46, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Reference Quiz #3
Yep. Number three is here. Nothing much to say here, except it's paraphrased, as in slightly edited. The meaning remains the same, but otherwise, it would be googlable. It was once written in an accent, like Italian or Mexican, but I undid that.
No king, nor queen, nor lord, nor master! We will not be fooled again!
Good luck.
--Place your guesses below here--
Would the accent be scottish?--RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 17:49, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe, maybe not. -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 19:13, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- Is it scottish - ish?--RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 19:24, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- Perhaps. I can't quite tell you that. Probably not, considering if you rolled a die, each side containing an accent, the chance of rolling Scottish would be low. It is possible, though. -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 01:05, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Clearly I need to start reading some Terry Pratchett. "Nae king! Nae quin! Nae laird! Nae master! We willnae be fooled again!" - Nac Mac Feegles --PdeqTalk* 05:03, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, you probably want to know how. Well, several google searches later I searched for: king queen, lord master! We won't be fooled again! and I found this. Then it was a search for Nac Mac Feegles that led me to Wikipedia, and voila! --PdeqTalk* 05:06, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
>.< I need some more obscure references... Much more. Or maybe I should up the prize...
- I'm trying to work my way to a permanent place in your sig, as you will have to condense it eventually or eliminate the early winners to make room for the new ones. --PdeqTalk* 06:09, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Pop Culture Reference Quiz #2!
Okay... Since the previous one went by so quickly, I thought I would do something a teeny tiny bit more obscure. AKA MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Anyways, same prize as last time. I may have to move all of this to another page to avoid clutter. Also, to keep up with the quiz prize winners, you can go to user:bronz93/quizwinners
NOTE: This quiz is over. The winner is User:Pdeq

Seinfeld? I'm sure it's some stand-up comic, but who? --PdeqTalk* 19:55, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
- Not even close. Need another hint? The one I gave was only half of it, actually. Mostly just a memory jogger, really. -- Quizzical Quiz Speak 23:41, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

So it's a webcomic? I do enjoy QC sometimes. --PdeqTalk* 21:30, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm... Yes.
- Hmm, it involves science. Perhaps it is the alternate text of an xkcd comic? --PdeqTalk* 05:53, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe it is, maybe it's not. But just to save you the time of a scavenger hunt throughout all of XKCD, I didn't know that XKCD had alternate text.
Another random guess that is probably wrong, Ctrl-Alt-Del?--Karekmaps?! 21:31, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Nay... but you're closer than Batman. It's more obscure than that.
Okay, with a little googling and looking at your hints, I've found a webcomic that I've not heard of before. The Odd-fish webcomic. http://www.odd-fish.net/ . (Your prize + signature race = awesome) --PdeqTalk* 08:55, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- Holy Cow I finally found it, after how long of searching? Here it is!. --PdeqTalk* 08:57, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Pop Culture Reference Quiz #1!
Yes... It is the FIRST reference ever on this page! Not that anyone cares... but anyone who comes across this page can submit their shot at what they think the reference is to! Whoever gets it right first wins a... prize? But there will be a reward. Seriously, there will. This round's reference is...

NOTE THAT THIS QUIZ IS OVER
--Put Guesses below here--
I must confess I didn't know it at first, but a quick google search quickly revealed the answer. But I figure a search engine is cheating, so I won't post the answer here. And I'll go postal on anyone who tries the same thing and gives away the answer. I look forward to future quizzes. --PdeqTalk* 02:45, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- Heh. Thanks for keeping a watch on my talk, Pdeq. I'll try to come up with a trickier one next time. Also, a search engine isn't actually cheating. It's called using some common sense. Your prize... is a spot on my signature! Congratulations! --The Trichloroethane Potato SGP E! RQ! Winner 1! 02:49, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
