It's been a fair few days since we heard from the riddler. He/She has been saving us from the lack of official news, but it seems like we're slipping into that void now. So please Riddler, give us more riddles. About anything, I don't care! Cheers for everything you've done, and anything you'll do in the future. Much appreciated.  |

The riddler confirms the two oasis demo and turns as "the riddller" with two L and a guest.
WTF, please webby we need some response...

Maybe "occupy nowhere" means they won't be on the album.

wrong one to occupy nowhere? # nusquam : nowhere, in no place, nothing, for nothing, never. # nusquam : nowhere, on no occasion / nusquam esse -- not exist. # nusquam esse : not to exist. |

wrong one to occupy nowhere? I'm not convinced of the translation, but if that's it, it could mean there is a hidden track but it isn't STC (see L4E's last thread). |

Note to Riddler:
Please start using anagrams because our knowledge of Latin is below basic.

"Le néant tient un seul sacrilège". Je traduirai la phrase comme ça mais je ne pense pas être dans le vrai, ça fait longtemps que je ne fais plus de latin.
Le néant = fin de l'album avec gros blanc comme dans HC ?
Sacrilège = Morceau caché ?
Seriously, we need a better translation of tis latin riddle....

The correct translation is "the wrong one knows nothing"
He's referring to the other riddller...

He posted get off your high horse lady long b/f it was even thought of, giving him quite a bit of credibility... he has also hinted at various other things (choose your brother- chemical brothers remix of gallagher brothers song).

The correct translation is "the wrong one knows nothing" He's referring to the other riddller... that is the most obvious statement yet the verb "teneo" is in 1st person singular as in "i know, i carry/hold" and not in 3rd p. sg. "tenet" (sorry to be geeky here, i was a latin coach for 7 years) I could care less if she reveals news a couple days before inet. that's the kind of thinking i would expect from anyone but to see how people can get worked up over some hints in latin is pure entertainment for me. it almost seems as if members here were expecting album news more eagerly than the album itself. so go on riddler and tennis players around the world: mess with people's heads. on the other hand, aint that the aim of any viral marketing campaign? |

Don't get me wrong. I think its kinda cool that The Riddler (who I'm assuming is someone on the 'inside') is posting clues on the forum, but honestly, what information is to be had at this stage? Who wrote what song? The length of a particular song? It's all fun and games, but if daily life is consumed by such trivial shit, said life needs to be examined. You have realized you just consumed part of your time responding to "such trivial shit"....Perhaps you should take your own advice and get your life examined then.....  |
