500 points for a correct solve. I will give MINOR aid if you submit a thorough attempt to me via PM. All answers need to be submitted via PM. Needs to be accurate to at least the hundredths place.

edit: ok, so since rubix, smartdude, and devonin all seem completely lost... let me give you an example: 01BBHR would be 2001 Barry Bonds Home Runs, which would be 73. Each one of the above follows a similar pattern.

This is ridiculously obscure. And you guys complained about my round 10?

QuadDamage · 01-30-2008, 05:19 PM

I already figured out how to read the clues, I just couldn't find what they all stood for. There are so many possible permutations. Will let you all know how it goes.

**smartdude1212** · 01-30-2008, 05:21 PM

I'm not even gonna try this, it's so retardedly obscure.

I mean seriously, normally names of athletes are wonky, assuming that the entire puzzle is based around sports, along with the fact that it could be any sport/any type of play in a sport that is involved with each of them, and I'm just not even gonna try.

End of story brb DTD.

**Tasselfoot** · 01-30-2008, 05:25 PM

i do believe that i said this was obscure. and, this is a bonus.

**devonin** · 01-30-2008, 05:27 PM

True enough, are all bonuses going to be a flat 500 points regardless of their comparative difficulty? Maybe bonuses should scale to the number of solvers in some way? If you're the only one who solves you get 1000 points, for each person who solves, the value of solving drops to some floor of 2 or 300?

**smartdude1212** · 01-30-2008, 05:28 PM

Well it sure as hell ain't worth it for 500 points irregardless.

Side note: If these are primarily or all American teams/people... that's even worse for Devonin and I, even if there's such a thing as Google.

Oh, DHR stands for Di-Hydrolate Reductase. Excellent. I know something more.

dabigpig · 01-30-2008, 05:55 PM

finally my sports knowledge pays off. Got the two 6162's for sure, as well as the two 8384s, 72SCW, thats at least 5 right off the bat without thinking too hard

**alloyus** · 01-30-2008, 06:18 PM

I noticed you wanted people to post their scores...here's my crap score XD *is REALLY bad at this song* the name is in the chatbox

I have both of the 6162s, but I'm having trouble with the rest. I'm sure I will figure it out sooner or later.

jonathanasdf · 01-30-2008, 08:02 PM

hehe btw tass when I submit this will you tell me also where I am wrong on your other one, from your previous mental challenge?

jonathanasdf · 01-30-2008, 08:04 PM

btw next time tass could you update your rounds by editing your first post instead of posting a new post? When there's a lot of replys your posts may become lost..

**Tasselfoot** · 01-30-2008, 08:19 PM

i haven't updated any rounds.... when i do, it will be in the initial post.

as far as the mental stuff... i'm not giving out that much in hints/aid, but i'll give some if you put effort into it already. and, sure, i guess i can tell you a bit of info about my original Mental Challenge as well...

i made it clear, initially, that mental bonuses would not be announced and could be located anywhere within this thread.

jonathanasdf · 01-30-2008, 08:19 PM

ah ok. So, I'd have to search through the thread to find mentals. Ok.

Btw. is it ALL sports?

**Xandertrax** · 01-30-2008, 09:25 PM

There's mine. Will send you the mental challenge eventually, haven't had enough time to work on it yet.

P.S. can we submit more than once, if we improve our score?

**Tasselfoot** · 01-30-2008, 09:27 PM

you may submit as many times as you want. will get a initial workup of scores late tonight.

new round goes up tomorrow evening.

jonathanasdf · 01-30-2008, 09:28 PM

Tass could you respond to my question above?

**Tasselfoot** · 01-30-2008, 09:47 PM

uh.... i could respond... but i'm not going to.

jonathanasdf · 01-30-2008, 09:49 PM

ah ok. I think i have 6 of them.

Anyhow, offtopic, but is there any way to turn off the opponents screen in MP? It lags me humungously..
