gretel.html transcript

das transcript

http://www.ilovebees.com/gretel.html

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Creepy.

behold:
Princess > !label seeker creepy

A real Princess never stoops to name-calling, you dumb bug!

behold:
!analyze Princess
fail

I was thinking about what that guy said, in that stuff the Queen was transmitting.

behold:
Princess > !behold truth

I wouldn't go that far. But, uh, beholding other people is something you have to do sometimes if you are small and trapped behind enemy lines.

evade
evade
evade

And learn what you can while you're doing it. As for instance, I found a better spy-spot on one of the Queen's secrets today by snooping around the pantry. ANYWAY-what he said. "What if someone were listening to us right now?"

!analyze Princess
fail

behold extern proc
extern proc > !listen
seeker > !transmit Princess > !transmit seeker
extern proc > !behold seeker
extern proc > !behold Princess


!analyze Princess
success

I've always been good with languages.

net:
hndshk Princess
grope:
seeker > !attach Princess

Boy, you only have one thing on your tiny mind, don't you?

fail

So there was this guy, saying, wouldn't it be creepy if someone was listening to us right now—and of course I WAS listening to him! And I got to thinking, what if someone was listening to ME? And what if someone else was listening to THEM?

!analyze Princess
fail

behold extern proc 0
extern proc 0 > !listen Princess
behold extern proc 1
extern proc 1 > !listen extern proc 0
behold extern proc 2
extern proc 2 > !listen extern proc 1
recurse


!analyze Princess

Now do you get it?

creepy


now if only we could find the riddle...so far, nothing turning up in the pictures on about.html

This could be bad for SP, he analyzed her this time.

Although the ending conversation where the flee gets it is worth a laugh.

I don't think it's a bad thing. PF is just saying he doesn't understand, so she speaks his language instead.

Sounds like the Sleeping Princess is refering the fix on the Candidate axon to me. But, now, I must leave.

Bye all,

It seems like when PF tries to 'analyse' SP, he's not trying to get inside her mind, but work out what the hell she's saying.

And this page gives us more information on the syntax of ">" and ">>", which is nice.

"Can you guess who I am?"

Obviously the last line of the riddle

Edit: Ahh, of course - the embedded text is referring to gretel. Words like 'path' and 'brother' and 'sweet' (possibly 'sweet tooth'?) stick out to me as words that would relate to that story.

So now we just have to work out what it actually says. Firefox, how did you work it out? Were you just plugging in names because of the 'trail of balloons' line? Wink

Good work superjerms. I couldn't remember which one of them had eaten the path, so I was contriving lines like "my brother is deceptively thin" Smile

Firefox; I don't get the last line. Explain?

i agree with super- so solve.. yay!

and after much deliberation in the chat:

I have a sweet tooth, my brother is deceptively thin, and I'm not so fond of the eaten path. Can you guess who I am?

could also be it...

bit ambiguous so we cant have 100% match and be sure

"I have a sweet tooth," = I got attracted to the gingerbread house

"my brother is deceptively thin," = while he was really fat he used a stick to deceive the witch into thinking he was thin

"and I'm not so fond of the eaten path." = The birds ate the breadcrumb trail we left so we can't get home

Can you guess who I am?

Ahh, so that's where the 'deceptively thin' line comes into it. Thanks for clearing that up, Kender.
