I'm here
You can all put your pants back on now.--ìğá†ħŕášħ 16:49, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I hope your American, because otherwise i'd like to know what sly trick you used to get my underwear off Random Time  16:52, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I refuse to reapply my lower torso covering for the occasion of your return. [[Image:Rsz_PLSig.jpg‎]] 17:21, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Scotch
Is the stickiest kind of drink, no? &mdash; Powersurge360  06:43, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Indeed. Good job. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 06:46, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd been guessing it was some cocktail with fruit/olive on a stick, but I couldn't recall any names. --◄mendel► 07:40, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * It's called dumb puns for a reason. If you wanted to get all Medieval on it, a stickiness index could be a good alternative answer. But yeah, Scotch(TM) brand tape from 3M(R) and Scotch the alcoholic beverage. The sheer stupidity of it makes it a hard riddle. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 07:53, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * ... what are you suggesting? &mdash; Powersurge360  07:54, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Bananas, melonas, the summer of forbidden fruit. What are you suggesting? [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 07:56, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Certainly not that coconuts migrate, if that's what you're getting at. &mdash; Powersurge360  07:57, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * With age they do - the heavier the coconut, the harder it falls. Also, if you have no horses, you can clap two halves of a coconut together to... [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 07:58, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

BTW
Do you take suggestions on what different ones you do? Because if you ever run out of one, I have three really insanely hard ones.--ìğá†ħŕášħ 08:09, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * But then they wouldn't be mine. I have more but they aren't clearly visualized right now so I will add them later. Mostly I just want someone, anyone to solve the impossible one. :) [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 08:11, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * It seems to me that the one left won't be solved as much as it will be guessed by random-assed luck. &mdash; Powersurge360  08:12, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Hey, if I had to solve it that way, so do you'all. It was hard for me too. A good deal of perception and awareness was necessary before the game would reveal its secrets... [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 08:14, 14 August 2008 (UTC)


 * @impossible: You mean, that's not a Haiku? "Wild Geese Fly Back / O, how I envy those wild geese / Flying back to summer less lands / ... "? --◄mendel► 08:15, 14 August 2008 (UTC)


 * No. It's a Poem and also a Song depending on how it is used. Very old (I think). Obscure. Try again? [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 08:18, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, I take a shot, I recall a phrase in Sound of Music (ok, not that obscure) "Wild Goose that Fly with the moon on their wings. These are my favorite things.". In some cases, like the version of "Beautiful Glassbottom Boat", they remove the word 'that' out of the line. Not sure if it was based on a poem in the beginning, though..-- [[Image:merty_sign.gif]]-- ( talk ) 09:14, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Felix has guesses that one long ago (should be in the archive?) --◄mendel► 09:30, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * bored enough to try this hmm, Wild geese fly.. Wild geese fly southward without faltering, and so on and so on.. cba to write the rest Kurtan  18:05, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Chinese Poetry
No 7. The Scattered Folk Collected Into Villages?--ìğá†ħŕášħ 08:42, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

It could also be:
 * Wild geese fly...
 * And on a warm spring day I could look up in the air

If it's from a song. *Defiant Elements*  +talk  18:28, 14 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Getting warmer (more obscure), but incorrect. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 20:14, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Forsaking the mists/That rise in the spring,/Wild geese fly off./They have learned to live/In a land without Flowers.Lurkerabove 12:25, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Incorrect [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 14:00, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Maybe this part is the following ?
 * Wild geese fly overhead
 * In the wild Autumn weather.
 * Souls of the newly-dead
 * Crying and flying together. × GW-Topinambour 14:10, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, incorrect, that's the third such guess. :\ [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 14:11, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Well anyway, don't have the patience to test any of google resuls with such vague indication :D × GW-Topinambour 14:23, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Wild geese fly over head.
 * They wrench my heart.
 * They were our friends in the old days.
 * That? [[Image:Bunneh.jpg]] ~Bunny  03:27, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * It isn't some weird translation of Qiu Hong, or one of those other Autumn Wind poems (don't remember all of their names, but u cant tell me if im really off) or is it

"Far from here the wild geese fly past hate and love and caring In countless graves they nameless lie the long lost sons of Erin The passing years shall not condemn those who those lie beneath the poppy When from the same green slender stem there grew an Easter Lily" Bastthegatekeeper 03:49, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Curses! what an bad time for me to look at entropy's page and realize i recognize one of the things... /sigh Bastthegatekeeper 15:37, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Mario Tennis Music
Failed to find the specific mp3, but found the music files as a whole if that counts. 19:19, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Now I need to find a way to convert those to a more universal format... [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 20:30, 14 August 2008 (UTC)


 * 1. Or just: Use WimAmp. It can convert GBS files to WAV. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  20:36, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * WAV is a hugely inefficient format which takes up gobs and gobs of space. But I can convert WAV to MP3. I wonder if that much conversion will break something. Thanks in any case. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 20:39, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I would've screwed something up trying to convert them. Glad I didn't try. [[Image:Rsz_PLSig.jpg‎]] 00:38, 15 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't think you can lose any quality when you convert from a lossy format to WAV, since uncompressed formats are lossless by default, but you will of course lose a little bit when you compress the WAV to MP3. However, I don't know anything about GBS format - it may be an uncompressed format to begin with, in which case the conversion to WAV should be completely lossless.  And you can always use a lossless compression like FLAC so that you don't lose anything in the (re)compression, either.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 01:01, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
