Well, there's a slight issue of time constraints, but I could have a stab I suppose.

Oh, by the way, if you need a quick link to anything, check the Useful Links thread.

I'm Jeroic9 here and in a number of places, but I also go by Tropes occasionally and Joe off the internet (no relation). "Tropes" is a name that, oddly enough, predates my knowledge of TVTropes and comes from a friendly British man in a chatroom who couldn't spell "lycanthropes" in my goth phase in high school.

Anyway, I'm a writer, with one book currently out. I've been on the site for a fair bit, but I've mostly been hanging around the Quixote and Sweeney sections of the forum because one's where I'm from and one is my favorite plot thread.

Anyways, I'm a big reader and gamer, but not as much of either as I would like since getting a full-time office job. Who knows, maybe the book will make me rich and I'll be able to do this all day. Ah, to dream.

My username, as you all can see, is SOHCAHTOA, I'm a lover of math, literature, and riddles. And... there's not much elso to say. I know SOHCAHTOA is a mouthful, so I'd like it if you guys called me Soh. Long ago, I saw on TV Tropes main page the video that (kinda) started the ARG, and started following Mr. Administrator on twitter. However, as I barely use twitter, i've lost much of the ARG. Only recently, did i found myself the interest to become a part of this, while I was checking my twitter on my phone. So I watched all of Echo Chamber's episodes (though it was relevant) read the TV Tropes timeline page, and ta-da, here I am. At first I was afraid of joining because there is so little I can do. I thought to myself "Will I make a difference?". And then i though "Screw that! Be a little selfish! Who cares you don't make a difference, it's gonna be fun!". So, here am I, ready to at least try.

And now, before I part, remember when I said I loved riddles (and math)? I meant that. So let's play a friendly game of riddles, shall we? "four times five equals twelve, four times six equals thirteen, four times seven equals fourteen... how long will it take before i reach twenty?"

Wellcome to the team. Embrace all the madness you'll find here. Normal people don't last long. :D
I'm not answering your riddle. I'll leave that to someone else. ;)

Pixelmage: Ah! Um brazileiro, legal! Como você pode ler, eu também sou um! :mrgreen:

Well, and despite being brazilian, and never having left Brazil, I'm more of an englishman really. All sites I go to are english, And this is the first time in months I have typed anything in portuguese (it even felt weird writing that). I even think in english!

Regarding my username, I wasn't even aware the mnemonic worked in portuguese ;) I just like anything that's subtle about it's meaning, and I like math exactly because of that.

JRPictures: Thanks, I'll try to enjoy this as much as I can :D



Also, no one will answer my riddle :(

Are you me? I already share my head with Alice and all... And Qara can confirm I called you were a BR before you said so... Weird.

Anyway. Vic is also brazilian, that makes three of us in the forums. Now, you're not the Cat, I don't think people will be very keen on trying to solve your riddles, sorry about that. ;)

Nah, I understand about the riddles. And that's why I said it was a "friendly" game, because there was nothing involved. But it doesn't matter, it's not like I joined this forum to make riddles to people :mrgreen:

And I saw that you had called me a brazilian before you edited your post :mrgreen: as I was making mine, i clicked preview, and it showed that you had edited that post, deleted the double-post, and JR had posted. ;)

I'll add the riddle to my sig so that everyone might see it, and then maybe someone will try to guess.

Is the answer 4 time 13 or 4 times 4 times 6? (BTW, you made a typo in the riddle)

Fixed the typo. And no that's not the answer. The answer is...

Hey there, I'm Blurred. I've been following the ARG for a while now. Hope I can be useful in some kind of way. I'm studying computer science, but I usually have a lot of free time, so I guess I'll be lurking around here or something.
