Talk:Cryptic Clue Fest I

Moving Article
In an attempt to not tilt at windmills, I decided to simply go with the inevitable and confirm moving the content to this article instead of reverting the move by User:600613. Per RS:GRAN and due to the fact this is something a bit different than the 2009 Thanksgiving event, sure, I'll go with the idea that this deserves its own article. To keep this from forking along different lines of development, I've tried to keep things together.

I hope this helps, and continued development ought to happen here rather than on the Thanksgiving Day event page. --Robert Horning 17:05, November 28, 2009 (UTC)


 * Yay! I was thinking about moving it yesterday... oh well, you were bolder than me, I guess. 17:28, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

Emote and Item
We should add a link to an image of the moderators response about detective themed emote and item.--Justin8mil 19:02, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

WOM?
How do we know that this goes to WOM? I see no evidence... Mage24365 22:40, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

Hiding clues
I'm using collapsible boxes to hide the clues. I am aware that not all web browsers support this feature, so it isn't perfect, but I'm trying to keep in the spirit of this quest, where half of the struggle is to try and solve the riddles. For me, it seems like it is simply spoiling the whole process of doing a walk-through in this case when clearly the whole point is to try and solve the riddles.

BTW, please don't remove those collapsible boxes unless you have at least argued your point on this talk page for why you think they should go. I'm not necessarily protective that they must be kept, but I hate being reverted as a common vandal and troll here for trying to put this in. --Robert Horning 01:46, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

the november 29 clues
As few know, it just went up, anyone solved it yet (i am totally lost)

I've figured out that the next number in the sequence is 3, but I have no clue how that helps. -- 14:13, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Final item clue
Can anyone figure out the final clue "Active game player rescues our cliff imp"--Guthix1110 14:29, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

I think that it could have something to do with beads, but it would be impossible for every player to obtain them from imps. -- 14:57, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

I can confirm that all 4 beads and a rope DO NOT WORK.--Guthix1110 15:21, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

this sucks, because every possible item is so hard to buy on ge so I can't try all possibilities --nismodrift

The final items
Ok, so what is the final items? I've heard many theories, but the beads are sooo hard to find... is it really every beads and a rope? No. User:Why Baby Why 15:30, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

I heard 8 Redberry pies, 3 yellow beads and 42 gp

Anyone tried that yet?

the beads and rope wont work...... any ideas???

Trying this now, back in 5. plz sign comments! Cant. too many ppls buying beads. Could as many people as possible join the wiki's clan chat at "rswikia" please. I'm taking 3 hours per line, too many ppl saving at once. we'll blow up the server at this rate!--78.150.204.210 15:41, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

i'm lost! >.< I want to try the redberry pies but I can't buy anything needed. Anyone know where to get pie trays and buckets of four so I can try it?

Confirmed Redberry Pies, 3 Yellow beads, and 42gp will not work. -- 15:45, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Final item?
Possibly imp box? Mage24365 15:38, November 29, 2009 (UTC) Remember that f2p players have to be able to do the event as well.

Impossible. it's f2p so imp box cannot be it.Undertakerhbk588 15:40, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Could Gypsy Aris have something to do with it since he said something about a crystal ball?

Active game player rescues our cliff imp.
Guys the main thing we should focus on now is decoding this message:

Active game player rescues our cliff imp

No one has decoded the message yet and you guys are coming up with random items like red berry pies and beads when the message does not even contain the letter 'd'.

Why should it contain the letter 'd'? Why?! 15:44, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

-Since the letter 'd' is not found in the message, it can't be redberry pies or beads as they contain the letter 'd'! The message might be a cryptograph.

I already tried talking to the Gypsy and she would only talk about the Demon Slayer questline and Recipe for Disaster.

Could it mean as an active game player it is a member so we need to go to a non-member spot with a member quest or something?

That would be too troublesome. We should focus on decoding the message!!

Faruq says something about a crystal ball and also read about it, the crystal ball being gypsy aris and read about it the newspaper guy, does this point to the centre of varrock?

Reward
You can use quickchat to talk about the item "Roddeck's Pipe". And we already know about the magnifying glass. --BreakIt 15:43, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Maybe its an item from the Oracle that we need to get? >.< No idea.

Semi-protect?
Part 4 has been vandalized, can we semi-protect this? -- 15:45, November 29, 2009 (UTC)


 * As agreed...This is turning into an edit war so far. Fishing logo detail.png 600613 H4XX0R  Talk [[File:Fishing-cape-inv.png]] 15:49, November 29, 2009 (UTC)


 * It is also being vandalized with the wrong items, which isn't helping the situation at all either. --Komain72 15:53, November 29, 2009 (UTC)


 * Agree, Non-Users getting fustrated and spamming. 15:54, November 29, 2009 (UTC)


 * ~Several sections of this article are receiving VANDALISATION. Semi protect? I think it needs complete protection or to be LOCKED from editing until the items can be absolutely confirmed.~ ~ExD~


 * I disagree. It'll calm down. And what if an anon user knows it but cannot post? 15:57, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Active player rescues our cliff imp. O_O
I really don't get this.

I heard it was all of the beads and a rope, then I heard it was confirmed, now I am hearing that it has something to do with red berry pies, although that makes no sense what so ever??

help!? =/

MODS PLEASE LOCK THE ARTICLE!!!
+ - I am on the clan chat if need to discuss. xyzrune6

NO REDBERRY PIES, NO ALL BEADS

Active game player: Maybe you need to be playing a game while doing something with an imp. Farul sell games. -- 15:55, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Our Cliff Imp
Fur,Coif,Limp

Could these be the items? It's not stating specifically what fur,but I think it makes a bit of sense.


 * It doesn't seem to make a whole lot of sense, but you could try it if you wish. We need all the guesses/help we can get to figure out this clue. --Komain72 15:56, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

I just tried with a bear fur with no luck. -- 15:56, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Possible Anagrams?
I've tryed using the number from the 4th clue on the clue Faruq gives out, they might be anagrams which could give the items we need, just a guess though. So far i have TEMLEEUOCFM, or if i move the starting position i get AIGEARSELFP and CVAPYRCSRI. Can anyone helm solve these? Vermin171 15:54, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

"Definately take protection"
Goddamn someone put some protection on this. This is ridiculous. Some tards spamming about genitals, pregnant women in sacks, links to GP selling sites. Put some protection on the page. :|
