I've never actually even seen the movie lol. I don't really watch movies or TV or anything so don't put too much stock in that.

Hmm... Okay then is there enough of the clues to find out how to apply them? Or is more pieces still coming? Cause I am stumped on how to apply all these hints lol

Neither do I! And good job finding that next hint not that they help us too much right now lol

I think you're trying to make it too complicated. You can't get the whole picture with the current hints, but you can figure out when to expect the next piece.

... Wait a minute... If Liddi says she never even watched the movie, maybe all these references are simply to time itself? Specifically a watch or clock themed pet?

A clock has a window to see through.

Groundhogs do not come out at the wrong time. Which is another reference to a clock.

All the numbers are leaning towards time in military format.

Binary counters are used in digital clocks. Liddi has a binary clue.

Maybe the times are not important. Or maybe they are? I dunno about that. But if clocks are indeed what the pet is based off of, it would need to be a pet that can keep track of numbers. Specifically...


Adopt virtual pets at Chicken Smoothie!

This pup. With two tails, one for minutes and one for hours. The white line on the ear could be the ring around the clock, part of a number or dash, and the closed eyes could be in reference to time as its not yet time for the pup to awaken. So it fits. I have to read the clues again, and check to see if any of the times can be connected to a pup (like a post time or something). But so far this one is a strong contender for Liddi's pet based on all the clues.

Thoughts?

oh! does that mean that 13:41-14:27 is when the next hint will appear? (thats 1:41pm-2:47pm)
we might get slowly appearing binary hints to spell something spaced in intervals revealed by the numbers?

I think this is a great theory! Besides having groundhogs on my mind, time kept popping up so I knew there was a tie-in to time, but I couldn't;t think of it. And knowing Liddi hasn’t watched the movie did kind of make my Groundhog Day references worthless.

Oh! It changed again! New time!

1341-1427

Someone will need to check both the time you discovered, and the time before it as I think the older one is still relevant? I will be asleep or working those times.

Emberwolf, is that you?

[Dama]

I suppose I'm ready to make my big ol' Dama post/guess...here we go.

So, really the only hints we have are the 3 linked images in Dama's signature and the date in her interests. The one relating to Icarus can be decoded into the keyword "wings". Do you see wings? I sure do. The one relating to elements of the human body can be decoded to "stars". Do you see a star? I do too. That leaves our 3rd, most confusing hint. The date in Dama's interests was confirmed not to be CS-related (pet/item dates, dressups, posts, drawings, etc.). That leaves a big question, what is it? Dama confirmed that the 122 in the Pokemon image wasn't relevant, so therefore I think it was just to lead us to the meaning of the date, November 20th, 2009. Only two Pokemon games were released on that date (in Europe, and with Dama being British, this makes even more sense), Rumble and "Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky". In the Discord, Dama confirmed that it wasn't Rumble, leaving Explorers of Sky, which is perfect. If you look closely, there's a transparent ring surrounding the star above the pup. In episode 1 of Explorers of Sky, there's an image of a Jirachi surrounded by stars, and get this...transparent rings.

This is what I've collected so far, thoughts?

I’m impressed! Well done :D I know a few people already kinda guessed it from two of the hints, but you’re the only one I’ve noticed who figured out all 3.

So, this is indeed my pup. Her name is Nova. I haven’t quite got a full story figured out for her yet, but I’ll have it done by the time she grows into an adult ^^

Such a beautiful pup, Dama!
