The 228 Massacre

[onlyanapple]

[For anyone playing on Castlenet today, they will find the mysterious hacker is back (not that he ever really made much of an effort to BE mysterious about it), with a brand new game to infuriate you all. If you win, YOU SAVE THE WORLD. And don't worry, that sound can't grate on you forever, right? Well, even if it does, just like the Nyan Cat before it, turning off or even removing the speakers entirely will not stop that ENDLESS CLICKING.

For those not with the ability or the means to explore the castle's internet system, he has decided to pose a riddle. He could say it's because he wants it to be fair and give everyone something to do, but the honest truth of it is that he's bored, and listening to people bitch and whine over the journal over something he's created is somewhat entertaining to him. So, he idly dictates;]

Here's a question for you, Paradisa. To pass the time.

A man is in a tent. It offers no protection from the weather, but if he leaves it, he will die. Why?

[[ooc: As always feel free to discover the new game as you like, here, in your own posts, whatever, go for it!]]

[Oh yay Crowley riddles. Time for him to give an obvious guess]

There's someone with a gun outside it threatening to do as such...?

[fishy_go_byebye]

Because angora... agora... Outside.

[atrophied]

It's an oxygen tent.

[triumph]

101 turns. Who can do better?

[onlyanapple]

[You know you love them, Allen]

Nope, try again.

[onlyanapple]

Agoraphobia. Nicely thought out, but no.

[onlyanapple]

My my aren't we clever? Want to try another?

[onlyanapple]

I'll be impressed if someone manages it in one.

[save_the_souls]

A monster then?

[triumph]

Yeah, no one's that bored.

75, now.

I am exceedingly clever. I also see them all the time in my job. [ Allen, you unobservant moron are getting a thirty-six hour shift for those answers. B| ] How about making the next one not sick person related?

[fishy_go_byebye]

Why'd you make it click.

[Even she's annoyed about that, man.]

[onlyanapple]

We're morbid today aren't we? No.

[onlyanapple]

Because it's a riddle.

[triumph]

Make that 16.

[onlyanapple]

A doctor huh? Interesting. [Allen he is sorry except he is not. Suffering is suffering]

A man bought something expensive. He then went out and gave it to a series of total strangers who, in turn, each handed it back to him. What did he buy?

[onlyanapple]

[There's a slow clapping over the journals]

And I don't know, this IS Paradisa. People do get stupidly bored here.

[save_the_souls]

You're the one who has a question about someone dying!

[triumph]

I bet it would take thousands to tries to get that close, though.

[atrophied]

[ Doesn't even think about it. ]

A camera.

[fishy_go_byebye]

Not that.

[SHUT IT HOUSE]

[akito]

Because there is life support inside but not outside?

[ Allen...I know what's wrong with you. You












are an idiot. ]
