Entered by carl on Fri Jan 21 00:55:32 UTC 1994:

Great!  You've found it!

Now all we have to do is figure out what we do here.

This is the place for online puzzles (of any sort).  We'll have some
situation puzzles, some word games, a few riddles and some other
shennanigans.

Feel free to use this item to list your thoughts, preferences,
feedback, or whatever.

308 responses total.

It looks like a conference where the two extremes of intelligence can
coexist peacefully and leave other conferences to the normal people!
/<ewl!

Yeah, but never, ever, ever, use refrence to anything that might have anything
o with meatloaf agian!


#11 of 308 by shaymu on Fri Jan 21 23:14:23 1994:

I'd do anything for zig, but I won't do that.


#12 of 308 by ziggy on Sat Jan 22 00:04:44 1994:

No, ahhhhhhh!  Help, meatloaf!


#13 of 308 by robh on Sat Jan 22 02:24:32 1994:

Believe it or not, this is a test.


#14 of 308 by bdp on Sat Jan 22 05:26:45 1994:

hmm, I think ziggy has been having fun editing the .cfrc files. :)


#15 of 308 by vidar on Sat Jan 22 13:01:09 1994:

Yippee!


#16 of 308 by msu on Sat Jan 22 18:08:34 1994:

here's the first puzzle.  What is it that Meatloaf won't do?! Put
out an album that doesn't sound his last big seller?! 


#17 of 308 by odie on Sat Jan 22 18:49:38 1994:

        Meatloaf won't squish potatoes in between his toes. :)


#18 of 308 by ziggy on Sat Jan 22 21:51:06 1994:

I think it is actually that he won't commit murder.  But I wish it was sing!


#19 of 308 by odie on Sun Jan 23 02:08:54 1994:

Don't you mean sung?


#20 of 308 by vidar on Sun Jan 23 03:23:40 1994:

Uff da


#21 of 308 by ziggy on Sun Jan 23 03:49:54 1994:

No . . . . now back to the topic, what was the topic, oh yeah, the iq cf.


#22 of 308 by vidar on Sun Jan 23 16:26:13 1994:

Eat nme.


#23 of 308 by scg on Mon Jan 24 04:09:48 1994:

Meatloaf won't do lots of things.  Here's a sample:

"But I'll never forget the way you feel right now --
Oh no -- No way--
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that"

"But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way --
Tonight --
I would do anything for love!
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that"

"But I'll never do it better than I do it with you
So long --
So long --
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that"

"But I'll never stop dreaming of you
Every night of my life --
No way --
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that"

"Girl:
After a while you'll for get everything
It was a brief interlude
And a midsummer night's fling
And you'll see that it's time to move on

Boy:
I won't do that!
I won't do that!

Girl:
I know the territory -- I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around

Boy:
I won't do that!
I won't do that!"

See... All you have to do is buy the CD and you will be able to look up
all the words.


#24 of 308 by odie on Mon Jan 24 15:27:32 1994:

Why did you just type out all of lyrics?  BEtter yet, why do you know all of 
the lyrics?


#25 of 308 by ziggy on Mon Jan 24 21:31:26 1994:

DIE STEVE, DIE, I hate meatloaf!  Ahhhhh!


#26 of 308 by carl on Mon Jan 24 23:24:55 1994:

I notice that there is a *lot* of drifting in this conference.  Perhaps
some of it really belongs in another conference.

My hope was that this conference would be about puzzles, games, riddles,
puns, etc.  

My fear is that the other responses are "scaring away" people who
enter the conference thinking that it is about puzzles and games.


#27 of 308 by msu on Tue Jan 25 00:18:24 1994:

well, I'm up for puzzles, games, riddles, puns...let's hear em!


#28 of 308 by vidar on Tue Jan 25 02:05:23 1994:

sahjckjldxkjfhn jseujdflkjjdj seiuulsdsk?


#29 of 308 by jasmine on Tue Jan 25 04:12:48 1994:

Ya know, I don't like meatloaf, but I really like what I saw of that video...
NOw that was cool!


#30 of 308 by scg on Tue Jan 25 04:49:31 1994:

re 24:
        That wasn't nearly all the words.  The full song, as on the CD (but
not the single; that's shorter) is 12+ minutes.  That was only the list of
things that Meatloaf won't do, which was asked about earlier in the item.


#31 of 308 by carson on Tue Jan 25 13:58:52 1994:

Did any of you read #26?


#32 of 308 by ziggy on Tue Jan 25 16:45:38 1994:

Yeah, let's avoid the drift, this item is for ideas etc. about the iq cf.


#33 of 308 by ziggy on Tue Jan 25 16:53:23 1994:

I would like to announce that item number eleven will be retired in one week,
anyone wishing to do anything with it before then go for it.


#34 of 308 by remmers on Tue Jan 25 17:09:06 1994:

Um, a fairwitness can't retire a linked item.


#35 of 308 by ziggy on Tue Jan 25 17:13:47 1994:

Oh, carl told me we could, well, then I guess we'll kill it.


#36 of 308 by vidar on Tue Jan 25 17:38:51 1994:

I apologize profusley.


#37 of 308 by ziggy on Tue Jan 25 18:49:27 1994:

Yes, i just finished doing that..


#38 of 308 by odie on Wed Jan 26 22:17:32 1994:

Hi.


#39 of 308 by ziggy on Thu Jan 27 12:26:35 1994:
