Game: Invisible Friend - Now playing round 47.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Dear invisible friend.

my father has robot twins. do you have twins of some sort?
are you considered tall?
are you most comfortable in A: summer blouse, B: vat of engine oil C: lab coat or D:a giant mecha war-machine being attacked by dozens of enemies?
is it time to save the world or smite the world?

Not unless you're counting imaginary characters or inanimate objects.
Not a chance.
Most of those I've never tried, but I believe option C would be most comfortable to wear.
Save it. It's already doing a fine job at smiting itself.

I was hoping someone else would post.

Alright, here it goes. Dear Invisible Friend, erm?

Dear Gabi

Q = It

i'm still waiting on replies

Whatever for, my dear fellow?

Dear Invisible Friend,

?

If you answer this question correctly it will probably be the end of life as we know it.  And no, ".", "!", or any other kind of punctuation, are not the answer.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Dear Invisible Friend.

Omlette?
Rock?
Prog?
Elder Scrolls?

Danny,

[VSMIT]

Dear Invisible Friend,
I'm sorry, but the answer to the question was "Dragonetti Bass Concerto by Edouard Nanny."  Good try, though.
What is _?
What is bright moth?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Dear Invisible Friend, is it?

Dear Gabi, it is.

who's more dangerous Rock or roll?

Not personally, no.
The Coyote? I doubt that's a good idea. Ask Calamity, he's better at what he does.
I believe Rolling rocks are more dangerous than either.

It is ___ with gusto.
It is one of these.

[Jer-oh-me]

Dear IF,

Are you still there?

[Jairus]

Dear Invisible Friend...

Hm... what game are you talking about, out of curiosity?
What games do you have on the Wii? And why do you want a PS3?
Aside from English, what are the other two languages you kinda speak?
For about how long have you been a member of the forums?
Which did you find first: DMFA or CVRPG?
What are your favorite webcomics?
If Billy has two apples and Susie has three apples, why don't they shut up and eat?
Are there any anime you're fond of?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Here's your picture Danny.

Dear invisible friend,

I believe I know who you are!
Okay Orlando Bloom or Brad Pitt?
Do you like the band Kansas?
Pink Floyd?
Blue Öyster Cult?
Who's your favorite comedian?
Do you like umlauts?

Dear Visible Friend, aka Jer-oh-me...

Oh do you?
... hm... I'll say Mister Bloom.
Never heard of them.
Um... never listened to them.
See Kansas.
Hm... probably Lewis Black or Jon Stewart.
Umlauts? I wouldn't say that I dislike them, I just don't use them that much.
And sorry about that: it's been a long and tiring week for me. I thought I'd answered this already, guess I didn't.

[Jer-oh-me]

Dear Invisible Friend,

That's alright, I can sympathize.
Yep, I'm pretty sure I know who you are.
I'm a little disappointed you haven't heard of two and not listened to the other of my three favorite bands, what are yours?
Do you like the letter Q?

[e_voyager]

dear invisible friend

what is the square root of a negative number?
do you remember high school math?
how many ways are there to make a cat purr?
daring duck of mystery?
is it am draw time now?

Dear Jairus...

Battlezone. Not the original Atari version, but the two games published by Activision.
I have a bunch of games, but I don't want to list them right now. I want a PS3 because it would be awesome to have one.
Spanish and Japanese.
A while.
Yes.
DMFA, CVRPG, B&G, XKCD, and a couple of others.
They're busy doing *ahem* other things.
Yes.

Dear Invisible Friend,

That's alright, I can sympathize.
Yep, I'm pretty sure I know who you are.
I'm a little disappointed you haven't heard of two and not listened to the other of my three favorite bands, what are yours?
Do you like the letter Q?

Dear Jer-oh-me:

Oh, I'm glad.
Really? Darn. I'll have to try harder at hiding my identity next time.
Hm... I don't really have a favorite band. I mean, I suppose there are some groups whose music I like to listen to, but it's the music I care about.
Q is quite a queer letter, and it is questionable if I can continue this query any further. Um... I don't dislike it.

Dear Invisible Friend,

How did you know i liked smarties?

[Gabi]

Since we're at it...

Dear Invisible Friend, what are smarties?

[Jer-oh-me]

Dear IF,

Well, I used deductive reasoning to come to my conclusion as to your true identity, so don't feel so bad about me figuring you out. Okay?

Would you like a cookie?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

dear invisible friend

what is the square root of a negative number?
do you remember high school math?
how many ways are there to make a cat purr?
daring duck of mystery?
is it am draw time now?

An imaginary number.
I remembered the answer to your first question, didn't I?
Depends on the cat.
If you say so.
It is! And this one's math-themed too.

Dear Invisible Friend,

How did you know i liked smarties?

Dear Danny,

Just did.

Since we're at it...

Dear Invisible Friend, what are smarties?

Dear Gabi

They are tasty.

Thanks for the image, D...ear IF! Er... What are those things? Kidneys? Jellybeans?

[e_voyager]

Dear invisible friend.

and here i thought that was chemistry.

the square root of an negative number can be found by multiplying  the square root of the absolute value of that number and the square root of negative 1 which is i

if you didn't remember that that you didn't really remember the math that i was thinking of.

nice picture that you.

how many questions have i asked?

is you character a canine?

Lex Luther man of steel?, is it real?

have you ever been close to tragedy or close to folks who have?

where is the Lab o f the evil doctor Jairus?

[Jairus]

Dear Invisible Friend...

What anime are you fond of?
Due u dislike pour grammar?
Do you think I know who you are?
What is the internet for?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Dear IF,

Would you like a cookie?

Dear Jer-oh-me:

Remember that no matter how logical your reasoning is, if it's based on false or incorrect data, then your conclusion will also be wrong.
Hm... Not right now, thank you though. I just had a slice of cheesecake.

Mmmm. Cheesecake...

Chemistry? That's only what advertisers want you to believe.
Both answers were right. You weren't specific enough.
Thank you.
Many. I'm not counting.
My character? What character?
No, it's fiction.
Yes.
Why are you asking me?

Incidentally, the game is on until this Friday, the 7th - or possibly Saturday, depending on how my Friday goes.

[Gabi]

Technically, incorrect data just might lead you to the right conclusions anyway, but there's no way to know whether they're right or not. (This is a remark about Jer-oh-me's IF's reply).

Dear IF, how much do you know about logic?

[Jer-oh-me]

Dear IF,

I based this off your responses to my questions, and your syntax, I'm pretty sure my data is accurate, plus someone just gave me inadvertent confirmation. Though I wasn't really suspecting them after you told me you hadn't been part of the first round.

I eliminated two of the others by determining where you're from. So that only leaves one person, and now I'm just waiting to be asked to provide my guess.

[VSMIT]

Dear Invisible Friend,

Have you been on the IRC?
What brought you to this forum?
Approx. how long have you been on the forum?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Dear Invisible Friend...

What anime are you fond of?
Due u dislike pour grammar?
Do you think I know who you are?
What is the internet for?

Dear Jairus...             

Hayao Miyazaki stuff, for starters, and a couple of the Gundam series. Especially Wing.
Due to a malfunction, you cannot pour grammar into the u-bend.
Probably.  If you don't by now, you probably won't know by the end of the round.
If you're asking this question, then I don't have to answer it for you.

Dear Jer-oh-me...

Really? Who inadvertently confirmed it? Or would you rather not say?
Well, the first round of this game was at least a year ago, probably more. I'm not sure about that. Ask the one who started the Game. But I wasn't in it.
Last I checked, everyone comes from their parents. Unless we've got some vat-grown players. Or Pod People.
Well, in short, never be too sure about it. I've only been absolutely sure of my IF once.

[e_voyager]

dear invisible friend.

do you like politics ?
where did i go wrong?
where did i go right?
is it time to wake form this dream?
is some one impersonating me?

[Jer-oh-me]

Dear IF,

Well there is no such thing as absolute certainty, but all my leads point to who I am going to suggest you are as soon as it's time. I've learned from my experiences with the past few rounds, though the number of times I got Jay was annoying, just because I couldn't reconcile his being my IF again and again.

Also when I say where you are from I mean a geographical location not your progenitors. It would be absurd to even entertain the notion of people who weren't born to parents in some fashion (Even surrogates, or adoption). When you told me you were born in Maryland or something to that effect that eliminated Jay quite nicely, and Danny as well, though he'd not been active. Your syntax eliminated E, as well as your not having been here for the first round eliminated E as well as eliminating Gabi.

There by leaving only one person...

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Dear Invisible Friend,

Have you been on the IRC?
What brought you to this forum?
Approx. how long have you been on the forum?

Have you seen me there?
I followed the comic from another comic.
I don't know; it's hard to count that high.

Dear Jer-oh-me:
Well, that's the thing about random chance. It's random.

Ah, but I wasn't born in Maryland. I [/i]got started[/i] in Maryland. To be more blunt, I think that's where my Mom got pregnant with me. I'd have to ask her to be sure, though. It certainly wouldn't be the weirdest question my Mom's fielded from me.

Besides, I could be changing my syntax and answering style to make it more difficult to pinpoint who I am. Or I could be more clever than that, or my spell-checking program could be broken.

Okay. We'll see, come Friday/Saturday.

Incidentally, I haven't received a picture from Jairus' Invisible Friend. They're the only outstanding person, otherwise we could wrap it up nowish - the responses being a bit laggy from how they were earlier ;-]

[Gabi]

Dear IF, what do you think of people who use an elimination process like Jer-oh-me did to find out who their IFs are?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Dear IF, what do you think of people who use an elimination process like Jer-oh-me did to find out who their IFs are?

Apparently your IF doesn't think about it at all.

dear invisible friend.

do you like politics ?
where did i go wrong?
where did i go right?
is it time to wake form this dream?
is some one impersonating me?

Are you trying to go anywhere with these questions or are you just throwing them at random?

And that's the end of the game.

Please post your guesses; as soon as they all come in, I'll wrap this up.
