why r u so mean to me? :(

it's 19,696 members of SRF vs only me and him. why you u throwing a fit about it?

i asked d2a cuz it was a long time and no one knew the answer. and he also proved that nuclear solution was wrong and that my answer of "no solution" was correct. :P

i dont think thats why Kratos and NuclearSilo are mad at Thief. they are mad at Thief cause he's using someone apparently very intelligent (D2A...wut his IQ?) to answer the riddles and ruin it for everyone else.

evidence to support my guess can be seen from this thread and from other threads. for instance:

[SD]Kratos wrote:Ask D2A, he knows everything, he's so smart and shit


i think so to Kratos and NuclearSilo, it's like having a Physics contest in SRF and Mr. Albert Einstein is participating in it too and he will answer it before anyone event have a chance. it will ruin it for all other since theres no competition. and we know that competition is fun. i dont think its about taking credit, but i might be wrong. maybe NuclearSilo can explain his thought himself?






anywho, back on topic.

The purpose of this thread is to make ppl queeze their brain to resolve the problem, which will greatly improve their logic skill, their ability of resolving a problem and the activity of their brain, and for fun too.
And not to come here to read the asnwer of a question.

Easy = no hint.
Yes, it's real, a bit of illusion :wink:
