Subject: Roger's Recon Hunt

No soliciting.

I got it, and if you are not 100% sure of your answer chances are it's wrong. Once you figure it out it's very obvious there are no other possibilities. Now awaiting to be told that I has recon or that I submitted too late. (also i figured it out before viewing discussion, makes me feel special).

EDIT: first on page 14, and as a bonus I started this thing at about 12:10 Bungie time. I feel extra special.

I sent a PM, I think I got it, or at least close.


If you do get it right how do you know if u won recon, cuz I got an Auto reply, and they said that was only gonna be one reply?

  • 07.07.2009 12:30 PM PDT

Sure.

I was 100% sure I had the answer quite early on and that it was flawless So i sent it in only to read that you have to have your answer as the subject. Ugh

I can see 1 of 2 possible answers they would want from this puzzle. Problem is, I think the puzzle itself is rather vague on exactly which one is gonna be the acceptable one. Then again, I could be wrong completely, but when I solved it, I agonized over which of the two to send in. Hope I picked the right one, and also hoping that, perhaps when the answer and the rationale is finally revealed to us by Bungie, one becomes more clear as to why it is the correct one, if it is.

Good luck to everyone!

NOT BRUTE OR HUMAN IS POE.

This is the puzzle. Waiting for your answer.


Really?... I mean, seriously?

  • 07.07.2009 12:33 PM PDT

I'm everywhere, I'm it.

Where did you find out that you have to have the answer as the Subject title?

I sent in one answer and haven't gotten an auto reply back. Hopefully that's a good sign


You can't win because you already have Recon.

I dun care. Already having the armor isn't stopping me from play Bungie vs. The World either :P

I just wanna have fun

Now why would you do that, regardless of whether or not it's right?

I know what you mean, but after i thought about it only one answer seemed correct for the simple reason that art is open to interpretation and only one answer was 100% directly connected, the other being an overshadowing subject.

Trying very hard to discuss without giving it away.

For everyone worrying about the auto reply.
You should only get one the first time you send a message, it won't send loads out.

For anyone who is still lagging behind... I'm going to give a very vague hint:

The Raven

The better question is "Why would someone post that, whether or not it's right?" It's a puzzle. People are supposed to figure it out, not ask the right people for the answer. Just getting the answer isn't the point. If people are posting things that, if accurate, remove the need to look at the actual puzzle entirely, why bother doing it at all?

  • 07.07.2009 12:39 PM PDT

Did everyone else put their answer in the subject title?

You should notice, that when you send your answer and you wait for an autoreply, then it is not shown that you have an unread message in your inbox. But you'll find the message in your inbox.


Four answers and one autoreply. Explain that.


In the autoreply it says not to expect any further reply from the autoreply.

It's not supposed to make sense right at first. Spend some time thinking about it.

You need to think step by step. You're thinking about the base, while you're almost up the tower.
