Sy_Accursed Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Day Two - "The Stone Tablet" Avalani, daughter of the renowned gardener Gustav shunned life amongst the flowers to follow in her brother "Tim the Wizard"'s footsteps, although she wasn't as interested in Fire Strikes. Little did she know where this path would lead; certainly not to years of research into a non-functional portal located at the Clan Camp. She just couldn't shake the feeling that it was somehow significant. All knowledge of the portal had disappeared into history and legend. Some say it was actually part of a magic mirror that was smashed after Guthix asked if he was the most beautiful in the land, while others thought that maybe the famed artist Goldy Andsworthy had created it centuries ago. But how does this tie into Avalani's request for help? You shall soon see... Congratulations on solving the puzzle I gave you, I'm impressed that you managed to solve it so quickly. You are clearly the person I'm looking for to help me! It's been three weeks since I was given this strange tablet and I'm still no closer to understanding the meaning behind the text shown. It was given to me by a most peculiar stranger. All they said to me was "Justice through his judgement". Useless really, why can't people be more direct? Why is there a need to be so mysterious? Anyway, to the task at hand; here is the text shown on the stone tablet that I've transcribed for these 'forums'. Can you make anything of it? I certainly can't.

ForsakenMage Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Grain just doesn't make sense in my head because it's asking for a wooden way.

Effigy Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Wow, did I already miss the first part of the clue fest? (Looks like it considering "Day 2") :( [hide]Shot in the dark, but could it be "Grind"? You grind food using a wooden wheel or something? I dunno, real long shot lol. [/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForsakenMage Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I guess we'll never agree on what it is. All we know is that it starts with a G.

Sy_Accursed Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Grain makes sense if u view it in light of how the other clues work. Way is another word for direction; eg you go that way/direction.The direction of wood is defined by the grain of the wood.Grain is used in making food Most other clues split in two like tht as well A miner necessity for transporting A mine cart for miners, a cart as a form of transport. A legal travel documentlegal links to lawteleports are traveltravel document teleport scroll Initially an internal document that helps.Initially > intialsAn Internal Document > A.I.DThat helps, to help is to aid. A cradle's owner in start of a disasterA cradle's owner > A Cat's CradleStart of a disaster > disaster = CATastrophe I hear a musical piece that has a ballI hear a musical piece > Canon is a type of musical composition.Has a ball > Cannonball > Cannon has one of them.etc. Fits perfectly when reading the clues in tht disjointed cryptic vein. As they all have a duel meaning, but don't REALLY make sense as a whole.

Effigy Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 So I'm guessing since I missed yesterday's part, I can't do it anymore? :P For some reason, I completely missed the fact it came out on 18th, not 19th lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can start them at any time before the clue fest ends. Technically speaking, you can do them all the last day. The fun is keeping up with them as they progress.

Sy_Accursed Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 They usually leave it open for a few days after the last clue for all the people who have been busy/all the lazy SOBs who just wanna be told the answers and make no effort to figure out the puzzles at all.

Po1gara Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I was thinking for the wooden way to cook food.....Grill maybe? Grain really doesn t make sense Grill makes more sense than Grain. I still don't see how that's wooden but a couple of these clues have been off. Grain makes sense if u view it in light of how the other clues work. Way is another word for direction; eg you go that way/direction.The direction of wood is defined by the grain of the wood.Grain is used in making food That fits too but how is it a "way of making food" Nvm, I'm just glad it's solved!! haha :mrgreen: Po1gara. 2002-.

skopariov Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I still think the g word is grill...the explanation for grain is such a stretch it borders on the proposterous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hfbrads Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I thought the answer was gnome. Gnome cooking is the way of cooking. Wood gnome is a type of gnome. You are all probably too young a comic strip by the name of Paulus the wood gnome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphanos Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Grain can be wooden in the sense of "wood grain", i.e. the way lines run through the wood. Not that there's any connection between this meaning and food or cooking... Alphanos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 How does grill work at all?Grill's don't have any relation to wood at all. You grill with electric appliance or charcoal barbeque. The grain explaination fits in tidily with how the other answers form and is frankly less of a stretch than others. like initially > initials Plus "make food" doesn't work with grill.You cook food on a grill but you don't food with it.Making implies mixing/forming something to cook. Grain can be wooden in the sense of "wood grain", i.e. the way lines run through the wood. Not that there's any connection between this meaning and food or cooking... Aside from the fact all the clues seem to divide into two unrelated meanings. And direction of the wood is decided by the grain.direction = way.Wooden way. > wood direction > grain of the wood. And then the other half making food, grain makes food.

Naive Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I'm still of the opinion that it's grill, as in wood grilled. Whatever, either one works for the clue.
