Guess That Image! Round 4
 

__________________________________________________

How to play:

Use the commands listed below to slowly reveal and attempt to guess the picture in the original post. The first user to correctly guess the image wins the round and gets a point.

Commands: (More to come, maybe)

Code:

---

\pos x,y                Reveals a 10x10 area at coordinates x,y
\guess "answer"                Submits answer as a guess
\no-reveal                Makes your post not reveal part of the image

---

Use a combination of these in your reply to the post.

Notes:

The mask color is white. In some cases it may not seem like anything is revealed because the underlying color is white. Keep this in mind.

Scores:

I know it's inconvenient but for the moment please use the old style coordinates like:

/no-reveal
/pos 100,100

And, I know, it's cruel but there is no clue. You guys keep guessing them way too fast! (With the exception of last round when I accidentally got the parser locked up and revealed like 100 squares)

Oh yeah: One guess. This round should be good!

Alex Cormier: This is about as big as these images can get. How do you feel about this size?

Fine, I give in... Take your clue!

/pos 200,140

Re: Guess That Image! Round 4
 

No clue? I thought "thing, 1 word" wasn't too helpful at guessing what it was but helped when deciding between doughnut or glazed doughnut.
Is the one guess rule still in play?

/pos 210,140

/pos 200,200

/pos 190,150

Re: Guess That Image! Round 4
 

/pos 200, 160

I'm not saying larger as in 200 x 200 vs 500 x 500.

I'm saying make the whole thing itself larger, so we can see the little pictures better. same size plot, just larger for the old peoples eyes.

Re: Guess That Image! Round 4
 

Until a minute ago this:

/pos 200, 160

Wasn't a legal command. Sorry about that. This post will reveal that square for you though.

I'm not quite sure what your saying needs to be bigger... The revealed part of the image needs to be bigger?

\pos 190,140

Re: Guess That Image! Round 4
 

He's saying to make the image bigger. Not the plot bigger, the image. Think large-print book versus regular book, if that helps.

@Below: use:
\guess "swordfish"
The answer isn't swordfish, however.

Yeah, I can fix up the grammar.

Re: Guess That Image! Round 4
 

\pos 180,160
\guess Swordfish

Can you clean up the grammar in the automated replies? The "I've went ahead and..." sentence needs to be improved.

P.S. When do the posts get parsed?

Everyone (rtfgnow :p) seems to be pretty curious how to break the parser... I would actually say it's going be more difficult than you think. Just about the only way I can imagine that would (and usually does about once a day) break the parser is timing out at chiefdelphi.com or jameskiefer.com (because I have been too lazy to handle the exceptions).

Post parsing works on regular expressions. Here are some of the regular expressions in the parser:

To answer Alex C's question /pos "200,300" wouldn't be recognized as a command.

/pos 180,160
/guess "computer"

yay for breaking the ice

/pos 240, 200
/guess "car"

Re: Guess That Image! Round 4
 

\guess "delorean"
\pos 11111010,11111010

Something I thought of while waiting for my 9-hour wait period to expire, maybe to have your guess considered you have to be in the top 10 posters of that thread. This would prevent people from waiting until the answer is more obvious and swooping in for the point.

The pm told me 11111010,11111010 was already revealed. It is 250,250 in binary. It also had the link called Round 5.
