St. Patrick's Day Game - Staff Welcome!

Community
1

This weekend is St. Patrick’s,
A party day for sure.
Don’t drink a lot too quick,
I’ve got a game for you.

A simple challenge, really.
A website ‘maze’ we’ll say.
Just follow the clues (and also the rules!)
or else I’ll make you pay.

Don’t cheat, don’t peek.
Or else: defeat!
Team? Yes. Alone? Best.
Or with members, rest.

And now it starts!
Please don’t get too tart!
A clue or two for you:

Venture on over
to the website of he.
In honor of 'Patty,
Our newest staff in green.

Now get started!

Additional Notes:
In case you couldn’t decipher my high-level poetry and literary skills, it’s really a clue hunt. I’ve devised a series of webpages that will take you around the web (but mostly in my Dropbox :smiley: ). Decipher the riddles to find your next clue.

ALL FORUM STAFF ARE WELCOME!

You CAN discuss the clues here, although, like I say, “Team? Yes. Alone? Best.” Your choice (I, personally, encourage discussion but not cheating.).

Now may the luck of the Irish be with you!

Ouch. :frowning: Anyone interested?

WOW!

This looks like a fun adventure!


Fun for ALL.
Have a Ball

I don’t know why your wasting time with us if you could be a poet :smiley:

5

I might be part Irish, but I can’t get past the password. :frowning:

6

Do you like word puzzles (like anagrams)?

7

Ouch. Don’t go too far. :slight_smile:

Make sure that it’s in all lowercase, no spaces, etc. Although the password should be very logical, if you follow the clues.

Love ‘em - and I’d got as far as realising I was looking for one. However, I had folk drilling the rendering off my neighbours’ house at the time, plus more workmen re-roofing the houses across the road and major construction work at the pier, so hearing myself think was getting problematic. (: I’ll maybe try again later. :slight_smile:

Personally, I like to mull over clues when I get them…one sitting just takes too much out of me :slight_smile:

Must be me, but I don’t even understand “Venture on over to the website of he.”
Where is that? :frowning:

11

I suggest you read it - again - a little more carefully; in the “sing-song” meter of a rhyme.

Venture on over
to the website of he.
In honor of 'Patty,
Our newest staff in green.

So I already found the answer, but didn’t think it possible :lol:
I won’t presume anything impossible in this hunt anymore :shifty:

13

I have powers beyond imagine :smiley:

I got it. That was pretty fun. I had to sit and thing about it for a while.

The last part was really clever. =p

15

Yes it was. But the first as well. Who would have thought… :lol:

16

Stuck to the password part. Still, an improvement from no progress at all.

Is there anywhere I can copy-paste the password from?

The only other anagram word that makes sense for what I see there is not working for me, though is pretty generic. The anagram, does it have to make sense?

17

Once you get it, you’ll be going “duh”. =p

18

Probably! LOL

So the password is 5 letters?

You are very close. But all the letters are used.
Think of “LOL-speech”

To quote:

Your word is generic,

'though not totally so.

The letters, the letters.

Switch them - you’ll know.

Remember you have to think outside the box - in this way, the resulting clue won’t be what you think. Also, the way you get to the password won’t be the way you think, either.

Did anyone find the Easter Egg embedded in the website? :smiley:

Think, “Let me try to cheat, somehow.”
