Title: [Puzzle] Orange glass door. (70 mBTC prize)
Post by: Jaxkr on July 27, 2013, 05:58:16 AM
Here's how it works:
I'm thinking of a rule. Users who fit the rule can be seen through the orange glass door, users who don't can not.
To prevent me from changing it, the hash of the rule is
Code:
 739ef46fb90bb66f4845d09f6e666533bc4c3cb9d06041d2caa583531fd2c958

To check if you can be seen through the orange glass door, reply with "Me?" and I'll tell you.
If you think you've figured out the rule, leave the solution as a reply. If you're right, I'll send you the coins.


The current prize is 70 mBTC. You can increase it by donating to 1CwSbXmEiT6pg4EbZcgEGs4ZN5jmhCYKjb (https://blockchain.info/address/1CwSbXmEiT6pg4EbZcgEGs4ZN5jmhCYKjb).
Donors to this puzzle:
  • Jaxkr (50 mBTC)
  • escrow.ms (20 mBTC)

The puzzle starts now! Good luck.

Only users whose avatars are not predominantly blue can be seen through the orange glass door. (Orange glass blocks blue light, after all.)

Nope. Sorry.
The name was based on the classic "green glass door" riddle. I just used orange because that's the color of BTC. Excellent guess though.
Also, you cannot be seen through the door.

Ah, now I get it. Is it users who have an odd number of vowels in their name who can be seen through the orange glass door?

Jaxkr - can
Foxpup - cant

The vowel(s) are not between those letters
- i.e. a is not between J and x so Jaxkr can, but o is between F and x so cant

I have a feeling that only people fammilliar with the "green glass door" riddle will be able to win this.
But im just going to toss this out here because I looked up the riddle and im going to guess that the rule is users who's name is a "two part" so "fox-pup" is can be seen through, so could PurpleTentacle and perhaps myself, but not jaxkr.
Can I be seen through the orange glass door? me?

I would guess it requires a User Name with three or more non-vowels in a row (in which case is not me) or a User Name with more non-vowels than vowels (in which case also not me).

10 mBTC donation sent
edit: 10 mBTC more sent

My stupid Guess: J and K are together on keyboard so JaxKr can be seen thru orange glass door.

Perhaps, only those with a black-and-white avatar? Anyhow, me?

I have updated the list with more usernames.
So far, none of you have been correct, but some good guesses!

:O, What's the rule?

Hint: Look at the last field on the user profile page. Only what's visible counts.

You can't be seen through the orange glass door if your user ID (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=138637) is 5-digits long.

You're correct! The solution that was hashed was ""Only people without a Bitcoin address in their signature can be seen through the door."
Congrats. I'll send the coins over as soon as I get home, which will be in a couple of days.

You cannot be seen.
Puzzle has been been solved by jackjack. Anyone without a Bitcoin address in their signature can be seen.
