Parse found Tachyon deep in thought, reading a message:
"I, Baron Blade, am about prepared to reveal a new, ingenious, all-powerful form. Ha ha ha! Observe the Overblade Elite Neo Cuts 9!"
Tachyon: I think there's a secret message, but I can't find it.
Parse: Maybe it would be easier if we rearranged it?
IBARONBLAD EAMABOUTPR EPAREDTORE VEALANEWIN GENIOUSALL POWERFULFO RMHAHAHAOB SERVETHEOV ERBLADEELI TENEOCUTS9
Tachyon: How is that easier?
Parse: You don't see it? Maybe you're overthinking it. It's all about the number nine.
That's some deep preparation, unless the pre-dated the "Joined" date!
I'm not seeing it, though. Grouping by 9's instead of 10's doesn't seem to help:
... all those lines have 10 characters.
Clever joke!
Ah, now I see it!
I've been around for a long time, I just don't post too often. Among other things, I got into some of the early rules debates back before a lot of stuff had been clarified.
Also, I actually meant to do something like this last year but I forgot to until after April Fools was already over.
I don't get it.
I think it was some kind of April Fool's thing...I didn't really understand it either.
I am the Wordweaver...
Basically, I like writing stuff ;)
The block of text has the quote from Baron Blade arranged in a block with 9 letters per line. Look at the second-to-last letter of each line.
The ninth letter, in fact. ;)
Ah, thank you. I see it now.
