i am looking at it as if it were a picture. it is some abstract art though. that never made any sense to me. IS SOZOBE ASLEEP? Isn't that punishable by law? how can i sleep now? better have vodka with juice.
I know the answer........"Brrrrrr.....it's cold in here, must be some TOROS in the atmosphere". The law of existential binary reason.
there's vodka, there's juice - you're all set. I've now spent some time trying to replace the numbers with letters.
Hey how do you become a content specialist?
goa - that's a q for the "help forum"
seriously, sozobe, EVEN I CANNOT SOLVE YOUR RIDDLE!!! It just doesn't make sense!
If we don't get by april 13, post the solution!
Oopsie I lost track of this after the 666 thing. I sleep! So sue me!
Rob, EVEN YOU CAN'T SOLVE THE RIDDLE?? But but but that's impossible! I must've entered some numbers wrong... let me go check...
I'm trying to come up with a clue that will give y'all something to work with without making it TOO obvious. Hmm. I'll start by saying that maxsdadeo was close in guessing the number of digits for the next in the series, but no cigar -- the next one has 14 digits.
that's it, I am SICK AND TIRED OF THIS, I AM GOING TO SOLVE THIS RIDDLE FOR ONCE AND FOR ALL! GUYS, LET's DO IT! (sozobe are you sure the 3rd term is correct?)
Ok so so far we have this:
13125
1021145
10211215
1217211920
?????????????? (14 digits)
Now let's list the digit (we'll be summing these clues up until we get it! Teamwork!):
5 (+2) (-1) (+2)
7 (+1) (+1) (+1)
8 (+2) (+2) (+0?)
10 (+4) (+?) (-1?)
14 (+?)
Ok now let's examine this:
-The first digit is always a 1
-The last digit is always a multiple of 5
-The middle digit is always 1. For odd-digit numbers,
the middle digits are 11.
-The sequence always contains 1's and 2's
-Number's of one's, number's of two's:
1: 2,1
2: 3,1
3: 4,2
4: 4,3
5: 5?, 4?
6: 6?. 4?
7: 7?, 5?
8: 7?, 6?
...
-When we add up the first 2 terms in the first 2 sequences (1+3,1+0), we
get the 2nd last number in the sequence, but for the 3rd sequence it
seems to be the 2nd and 3rd terms.
-The 2 seems to be in the positions (in accord to sequence #) 4,3,3,2,?
-?
Heck, this seems so weird??? NOTHING AGREES WITH EACH OTHER!!! DAMN! SOZOBE, either this riddle has some SERIOUS error in it, or you have created the million-dollar riddle!
Oh boy! I get a million dollars?!
No error, I checked. But remember what I said about calculators -- that's important.
(I'm impressed with your attempts, though, TGR!)
Do you treat these as actual numbers, or as patterns (such as the one below)?

A big misconception in riddling is that a good riddle is one nobody can get.
That ignores the fact that it's very simple to create a riddle that nobody can answer.
Shoot, I wanted those million bucks.

IN OTHER WORDS, DO YOU NEED YOUR CALCULATOR TO SOLVE THIS RIDDLE????
Oh and TGR it is not a math problem -- no adding, subtraction, multiplication, anything.
Craven, if I get some forehead-smiting and "OF COURSE!" when someone finally gets the answer, I'll be happy.
ok thx, so it's just like a pattern?
(like this one for example:
5
25
125
...)
Um, not really. Hard to say. Along the right lines but not it exactly.
:-( i keep staring at the numbers, nothing. no forehead smitting yet.
