Staff Litter Discussion Thread

[Ciarla]

The hints this year seem so much harder, or maybe its because they are more thought through?. Riddles where you have to un-scramble letters, Python Coding, Links that take you to other links, hints in different threads, hints in Edited posts where I don't think they show when using the Search feature. Assortment of items scattered around as a scavenger hunt.

You've made it difficult, and guess no one can complain about being bored with so much to try and make sense off xD
Its funny to, because to the staff their hints may seem easy since they made and understand them, while we have no idea and trying to make sense of them and possibly over thinking.


The Staff are watching our every single move
Some of them are merciful and steer us the right way
While others like to watch us suffer, clinging to our theories
Some may even take joy and pleasure in leading us astray

Some like giving us no direction, so they can watch us squirm
As we try to build up upon our thoughts and all our speculations
We plead to them for guidance, and hints to keep us sane
We know they hold back on us, to keep us guessing for their creations

Stay strong in these dark times my friends
Because we will make it through this day
We just have to keep moving forward
No matter the trials that are in our way!

And when all is said and done
We will sit here in our glory
For we will have discovered all their pets
And they will have told their story


I think I need to drink less coffee xDD sorry

To reward your lovely poem, I will confirm for everyone that "wandering sun" is not a reference to any anime. Despite what Sherlock might say, some things are in fact nothing but coincidences. :P

Thank you! :] I'm sure that will help people a bit not having to worry about the anime.

After seeing you guys solve a lot of hard things during the GH litter... I was scared to give too easy hints, so. x'D

I don't think you need to worry about that xD but hey, it gets people involved and thinking, someone just needs to have an epiphany.

I think you have all done well really, I mean as hard and confusing as the hints seem, you have all put quite some thought into it, and found a way to give us hints without making it too easy, giving us a challenge and something to really think about.

Hopefully though, when we start getting adults, it will get a little easier, if not just from maybe style. But I worry I guess that you guys won't confirm even when we do guess right unless we can match up all the hints correctly.. xD

reminds me of a titan from aot...?

Reminds me of stitches you use to make plushes ^^ It's around the same area of where the fabric would need to be sown to get that shape.

Lol my first thought was a watermelon...

I guess I'm just super weird then, my first thought was of lucha libre outfits xD
It's the mask like facial marking that really did it. My second thought was plushies because of the stitching. So then I was imagining lucha libre themed dolls. I can't unsee it now lmao

*pokes signature*

I really wish we could keep the puppies xD I always like them better than the adults!! I especially love the plushie (?) outcome here. I tried to dress it up real quick teehee.

Anyone else dressing up the pups?!

Pande what a lovely poem there is never enough coffee.

For this wonderful piece of originality I will reveal that...

खाली

"Khali"

[void, devoid]

...is my pup's name but why will not be revealed until I write his story when he matures.

[Aang Beckett]

Hmm

खाली

Is Hindi, does translate to Khali. So Indian then. Hmm...

*returns five minutes later*



"Hi, I'm a tiger, I'm found in India. Are there any pups like me?"



...It's possible...

edit: Void/Devoid...Bengal Tigers (the ones in India primarily) are endangered. The world becoming devoid of these beautiful animals... *winces*

edit2:



Euth's pup from last year...also mostly orange. Only thing they seem to have in common

[LostInTheEcho]

I thought that I maybe could contribute with something now
To me, this pup:

Reminds me of mosaics like these but with larger pieces and not of a plush, since it does look very smooth and not fluffy

I'm wondering if what this years pet has in common wish last, is a design/visible feature, or perhaps the inspiration.. Like, Karoola, last years pet, is based on the Australian Mythological Bunyip, a Cryptid. So perhaps this years is simply another Cryptid, An Australian Cryptid or a Bunyip like Cryptid but not necessarily Australian...

It is also very possible I think way too much into things.. xDD Could simply mean it has Line Edits, Black/Solid coloured eyes, or is mostly one colour like your suggested

If you're comparing the two, they both have line edits as well. Not like Malk level though, maybe minor edits [as a pup]?

[Wookieinmashoo]

6 more outcomes to go and I only have 8 pups left...hopefully I don't run out tomorrow.
