russel, how many times do you have to click on him?!!


it seems to change between making jokes and saying other quotes

I've seen it loop round:
-What's a ghost's favourite Ice Cream

-I Scream (then as it fades away it mentions quantum cherry)

-Why am I such a good farmer?

-I'm always outstanding in the fields

-------

And on the other times it's said:
-This is not a a game!

-When I were a lad this was all fields

-anyone seen a lunartik around here? (lunartik designed the website and seem OOG, if you click on a certain item in the visit the factory part)

-You still here?

Sounds about right. If you stop the music using the yellow flower (bottom right) you can 'play' the trees. THere are 6 different notes (or chords) between the 13 of them. Shocked

The milkmaids all sing too - I've been trying to copy their song, which seems possible given the notes we have, but I haven't quite nailed it yet. too much luck. After all, how will I know when I have it right?

Also, I am guessing you have to drive the truck away at some point as well. At the end of the tune?

BTW, the relationship between the notes is (1 beinglowest note, my ear isn't good enough to tell you what it is on the scale from work):

left side, to to bottom:
3
4
2
1

Right side, top to bottom
3
5
4
6
3
2

Re: Audio puzzle?

If you dont move the cursor over the large cow head so that the writing 'pastures green' doesn't appear, that reveals an extra 2 trees that you can 'play' plus also the one next to the factory = 13.

Using the same convention (1=lowest, to 6=highest), the notes are:

Left group (left to right) 1236445

Middle 2 (l to r) 64

right group 233

near factory 6


Edit: working on the chords (as they are chords not individual notes....) the tune is in the key of C

Surely not! The Perplexians wouldn't be that rude, would they? For what is worth (not much) I bet 'very clever cows'.

Chocolate has been banned in Perplexia because of its horrible taste.

Is it me, or does the image on the splash screen (http://www.whipsmartice.com/index_03.gif) come up as a 404?

Did you just make that up, or has that been mentioned somewhere?

Don't like chocolate - is that possible?

This fact, combined with the highly suspicious lack of photos, leads me to believe that Sente et al are obviously weird lizard-like aliens intent on taking over the earth. (Too much sci-fi - I was a big "V" fan)


More sensibly - other than the cards, was this site mentioned anywhere else that I missed?

I can see that not having (buying?) cards is going to be a huge disadvantage to keeping up with what's going on.
