Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

I just ran all the numbers through a binary to decimal converter and found something very interesting, all numbers are in the order they appear. there is a very obvious repeating pattern.

11111

I was joking with students that we should have been calling Target/Walmart/Amazon to figure out what toys they discontinued over the holiday so that we could get a head start on game pieces.

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

Wow? I find it hard for that to be a coincidence

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

Frank was right. This hint is good.
Now, what does it mean?

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

You missed the other comma... Where does it go?

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

Hm.. does it show a Christmas tree shape?
Not sure about the 11111 in the middle though. The connector for an artificial tree?:rolleyes:

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

I think a decent portion of CD just went into spasms just at the thought that minibots may be a deciding factor again.

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

I still think this.

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

Am I the only one who doesn't recognize the 'obvious' pattern here? Can someone clarify what the pattern is?

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

Each line of the hint in binary is the same as the previous, plus another section. Atleast that's what I've gathered.

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

Well, Let's build on that.

Emphasis on build. Maybe something has to be by built into a set. Like in 2011 having to hang 3 tubes in the right order to get a bonus. Or perhaps stacking different pieces to make a totem pole?

Just a thought.

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

I was thinking about it, when they posted the binary, new lines have to be made due to the width limit of the text. So that means that the true shape of it would be that of the Cingular bars (old cellular company). Perhaps a stacking game as you mentioned, similar to the Tower of Hanoi (not the puzzle part, but the posts and cylinders)?

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

Think that this happens when I do a little splitting of my own:

11111

101111011110110001101101 00001101011001000010111

101111011110110001101101 00001101011001000010111
10111101111011000110110

101111011110110001101101 00001101011001000010111
101111011110110001101101 111101110110010111111

101111011110110001101101 00001101011001000010111
101111011110110001101101 111101110110010111111100101010101110001110101

I put a line break at the comma. The beginning remains the same, but the ends differ... Any ideas?

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 

Well if the binary is "stacking" on each other through every iteration, this could lead people to believe that the line of thought that this year could employ some kind of reference to 2005/Triple Play might actually be true.
