I managed to get 5 LEDs. I have some ideas for how to use them, but first I'm willing to ask the forum if they have anything specific they would like me to guess first.

I entered 2 in the rightmost cell, and it said 3 were in the correct position. That means that the only number it could be is 5 (or 9 without a tail, I guess). It looks as if we aren't dealing with digits.

With Dischorran's result, we have the following possibilities:

So:
 1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9
 _   _   _   _   _   _   _ 
|_| |_   _  |_   _  |       |_   _
  | |   | |  _   _| |_  |_| |_  |_|

The only ones I see being a possibility are 1, 2, 6, and 9. Note that 1 would mean that neither of the LEDs

I think you're missing some possibilities there. For example, 12356.

Overall I get 14 possibilities; the ones that form letters are HoyUFCn.

I just used 5 LEDs to input
|_ 
|_|

in the fifth (rightmost) register. Four were in the correct spot.

Combining with Dischorran's result, that means that the top horizontal LED in the rightmost register is OFF.

Edit: TripleM has corrected me below. Thanks! I've removed bad assumptions in this post.

I make the rightmost one of the following:

I was thinking maybe rOACH, but that wouldn't fit with the 17 guess, but there's still plenty of spellable words.

"3" in register 4 gives 4 hits. Chaco stands absolved, I guess.

Assuming that everything so far is correct such that all three LEDs in RoboBob's 7 can't be correct, this leaves us with:

A. All three horizontal LEDs and exactly one right-hand LED in register 4, followed by H/y/U in 5. This would allow G/S/2/5/6 in register 4.
B. Exactly two horizontal LEDs and both right-hand vertical LEDs in register 4, followed by o in register 5. This would allow A/O/d/q/y/4/9(tailless)/0 in register 4.
C. Something more creative yet, I suppose.

This work should probably be checked before being etched into the collective opus.

I'm still stuck on trying to figure out how to even participate in this new bar game. I've tried clicking the new bar hundreds of times now, and I still haven't found any LEDs, so I have no idea where you guys are even getting them from. :(

Summarizing guesses so far:

"17" in #4, #5 - 3
"6" in #5 - 4
"2" in #5 - 3
|_ 
|_|  in #5 - 4
"3" in #4 - 4

Generally you have a better chance if you wait a time before you click, but I've never had more than 4 so far either, and it won't let you guess with only 4.

If it doesn't give you LED's on one click, it's not likely to give you any on additional clicks that immediately follow. Wait a bit before you click again.

Well, the attempts have been at various times over the last couple of days. I guess I'm just not getting lucky.

One of the possibilities is very, very intriguing. It suggests we have something interesting to look forward to in the new project, but I'm not getting my hopes up until I confirm the answer. :) Still, I'm excited.

Yeah, I can't wait until I get 23 LEDs too :)

Alright, I have enough (7) LEDs to make a guess.

Is there anything you folks want me to guess?

Done. Four of the LEDs were correct.

Animated gifs are not Flash.

Also, I had it narrowed down to either Flash or Clash because r and t are lame and don't really fit the digits.

The fact my '23 LEDs' post was modded up 2 pretty much confirmed it anyway ;)

A flash game (as proposed on more than one occasion in the past) will be great for getting DROD out there.

Or, it could be an announcement that they're having serious problems with the stability of the new project's code. Just saying.

What I predict will happen is that anyone who spells FLASH with the LEDs will gain access to some sort of flash animation.

I knew letting you folks do all the work for me was a safe bet. Thanks very much.

(Actually, no. I would have loved to participate if not for the fact that LEDs seem to be terribly rare, even if I do click only on occasion.)

Putting F in register 1 and burning the fifth on a known LED in the final H goes 5 for 5 correct.

Okay, this is getting ridiculous. Will the asshole who keeps modding Trickster down for completely innocuous posts kindly pick one post in some designated thread, and just downmod that, since the new system allows it?

It's not that I care that much about Trickster, downmods or assholes, but it's kinda breaking the flows of our threads when Trickster's every second post is apologizing for being bullied. Derails the threads and stuff.

Drag Trickster into some distant corner and beat her into a bloody pulp where we can't see it. Thank you.

Doesn't sound terrible positive to me. That said, I didn't drop the -5 bomb, nor did I feel any need to correct it.

Now, back to Forum Games plzthx!

Oh, I see.

I generally just accept that my posts will be refracted through the subjective prism of everyone's perception. Therefore, all my posts retroactively mean exactly what people see them as. If someone thinks they are sarcastic, yes, they are. If someone thinks they are dead serious, yes, as serious as can get. If someone thinks they are offensive, heck, a personal insult just for you, friend.

Anything is offensive to someone out there. Sure, sometimes I might even try to insult a person, but if they decide to take it as a sign of affection instead, then I guess it wasn't an insult at all, eh. Who am I to judge.

I think the new bar just bumped to 91% to get us to shut up.

You mean the old bar. The new bar was at 91% for a long time now.

It's the Gunthro one which added 1%.
