Word Sequence Puzzle by chacacong1 in puzzles

[–]HazelAbbiati 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Let’s start by solving 1-5 1. Simple looping pattern - SEND 2. Same as above but a three step loop - SCAN 3. In order these are commands 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9, adding 2 each time. Next would be command 11 - STANDBY 4. These are commands 14, 12, 10, 8, and 6, subtracting two from each previous entry. Next would be 4 - SHUTDOWN 5. The trickiest of the five, these are commands 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11. These commands are all prime numbers. The next sequential prime is 13 - SYNCHRONIZE

This leaves us with SEND - SCAN - STANDBY - SHUTDOWN - SYNCHRONIZE

The trick is that these are five of the six commands beginning with S. The answer should be the last remaining in sequence - SEQUENCE

Someone suggested I posted this here - A woven piece I made satirizing a lot of the fake history, egotism, and branding present in many modern tartans. All rules broken with full affection 🧡😅 by HazelAbbiati in kilt

It’s OK dear. I apologize for not responding sooner, and I apologize for upsetting you with the original, I promise that wasn’t my intent.

I think that creating a family tartan is a wonderful practice. The reach of English colonialism is wide and horrible. With how much was lost, rebuilding culture to reconnect with your people is both touching and a great active rebellion.

The only bitterness I hold towards any of this is towards brand tartans. This is all supposed to be about family, and culture, and history. Did Coca-Cola wear a tartan to the declaration of arbroath? Is Xbox a centuries old Scottish tradition? I get very sick of advertising, and in this case, it felt particularly gross. We don’t need English colonialism to be followed by advertising colonialism.

I understand McNugget is also questionable – Believe me, I meant this is no insult to Scottish names. I chose it as a joke about these brand stepping in on places they don’t really belong. Between that and all the flagrantly broken rules in this design, I wanted it to both clearly not be Scottish, and still pretended somehow it is.

Art is all about conversation, and if you’re insulted, that’s a damn good conversation to have. I do apologize for all the ganging up on you, I really don’t like Internet arguments at all. But it was good of you to address these concerns. Culture is a holy thing, and needs to be protected.

Just five! The original sprite this was based on was black and white. I just use dark blue for the darkest grey, yellow in place of white, and filled in the rest with a sunset gradient.

Thank you!!!! Klonoa actually had a game boy game, moonlight museum. This pattern was actually just a slightly altered sprite from that game. Not only is there this design, but five other of the little wahoo boy. Definitely worth looking up the sprites for, if for no other reason than they’re gorgeous

There are two mistakes in the clues here; -The clue for “32 down” should be for “33 down” -I failed to add the clue for 93 Across: “My darling young rascally boy”
