Rachel Green

Very amazing work to the handful of you who bothered trying this challenge. I always appreciate a good decode session!

And to the rest of you...

Rachel Green

And gleams could be sneaks?

ETA: Oh, I like clomps, nice one.

And yeah, let's try "breaks in" but if they say no again, let's use "sneaks in" as the next try. I like yours better.

And if singing fails, we can try sighing.

Rachel Green

In case of consumed... all we have is ~~~~~~e~. It likely ends in d, so ~~~~~~ed. Oh! Finished!

Rachel Green

Yeah, slot in place of slit seems pretty straightforward. And I suppose it could be "only sound in my day" after all.

Any thoughts on a replacement for cursing? I thought of singing and sighing, I don't feel super-sold on either, but we have zero letters to work with, there.

Rachel Green

Phenomenal work. If for some reason we have not solved it and get another letter, do you think an additional vowel is in order or would you like to establish the presence of a particular consonant? There are definitely a few too many guesses involved, still. The word "slipping" may not be...

Rachel Green

Could we have it????? I hear the footsteps approaching. It's the only sound of my day as they climb steadily towards me, and then the light that gleams in as the small slit is opened. A grating sound as the aluminum tray is slid inside before the slit is slid back into place and the little lock enga...

Rachel Green

Singing, sighing... ooo, maybe cursing???

Rachel Green

Singing?

Rachel Green

We are going to have to flat out guess that last, blank, 7 letter word. It isn't talking, since there is no "L", but it has to be something like it where the person starting making noises to kill the silence. It likely ends in "ing". So four letter word plus -ing that means talki...

What we thought was "lamb" could be "lock", like a lock on the little slit that they slide the food through. "Escapes" may not thus be correct.

Yeah it was a bit surprising to find out that the quote ha ms absolutely nothing to do with mafia stuff so my strategy on the letters backfired but I think we are doing pretty well.

As for the poll yesterday, like I said, I don't mind admitting I was looking for a prize!

A few bits that maybe could be resolved... "??all" in crossword helper sites has only these choices: myall, scall, shall, small, spall, stall. In light of this, I think it must be small? I'm not sold on "plot" though, as "slot" and "slit" make as much sense. A...

Meh, we're all trying our best here, I don't care which way we do it. I only care about how few of us are trying.

Rachel Green

We need to know which parts are still "being worked on". It makes more sense for the parts that seem 90%+ confident to just be written, so we can see where we need to concentrate by looking at the parts in dead red, to me!

And homie, there is nothing passive-aggressive about what I wrote, it's aggressive-aggressive. Anyone who doesn't bother helping with this is permanently going on my shit list.

Rachel Green

I will bite your ear off and flush it down the toilet bucket. You know damned well that this prison operates on a multi-layered schedule, so quit protecting yourself with these tripe passive-aggressive attacks on absolutely anyone you can find to attack. I have no idea what any of this means, but h...

Excluded ear.. Put lamb in paranthesis, it could be wrong and it's kinda distracting me from thinking of other variants. This word "~l~~~~~~" could be repeating itself twice, second time after "That's when you really start...". Proofread to the best of my not-losing-my-mind abil...

Just a note. If we fail these challenges, there are some repercussions. So, considering how difficult this one is, I'd like to note that the following prisoners have contributed: Prisoner 920077 Prisoner 277058 Prisoner 413022 Prisoner 208986 Prisoner 650829 Prisoner 740359 The following prisoners h...

Rachel Green

Yes. As someone pointed out, my line with "ear" is wrong as there is no E there. Next time someone updates please take that bit out.

Rachel Green

Using various crossword helper sites etc. the only two words that seem to fit where I put climaxless are that one and flightless. I put the (?) because its such a specific word, I'd consider that speculative for now.

Warden? I'll request T L E please.

Rachel Green

I love me some decoding. In my opinion, the best letters are those that highlight words key to mafia secrets. Thus "t" for "target", "l" for lynch, and a vowel is a must. "e" is the obvious choice, but "i" is good for a lot of words as well. So Mr. W...

Just a simple comment here, but that Warden looks just like that douchebag doctor in Patch Adams who said there is no place in medicine for laughter. I hated that guy, and consequently... I hate the Warden. Dude better not walk too close to my cell at night...

Oh give me a home... where the buffalo roam.... oh, hi there.

OK I'm back sorry I have been uber busy lately. I'm just catching up.
Syn 2 I have one question for you. Why are you so quick to wave the "look I was right and long con was scum so so I must be civ." Flag it screams wifom.

Will you catch up tonight and in the morning.

Yay game!!!! So excited that it started will be back later after i grade some papers.

I just think Pilate was the wrong choice to go after. Rahab went after Pilate too. For me, the thing about Pilate is this: I can't see his teammate. It doesn't make sense that he has one, to me.

I see your point, but I disagree.

Rachel Green

One more thing. All these civs we've lynched. And after we lynch them we say, man, why didn't they speak up and defend themselves? It would have been really nice if they would have so we could have moved on and lynched someone else. Now that I AM defending myself, you think that's baddie behavior?
