  1. CHAT WINNER: Lemona (220341852) PRIZE: 13,000 xats ANSWER: xat planet ACCEPTED ANSWERS: xat logo or xat planet EXPLANATION: Sur[round]ed, and [solid] too, [hue] like the [sea] and the [sun]. Round and solid, hue (color) like the sea (blue) and the sun (yellow/yellow orange). HELP WINNER: N/A PRIZE: N/A ANSWER: N/A ACCEPTED ANSWERS: Red Herring EXPLANATION: "Astray you will be set, what you do not see, what it's trying to be, a creature you haven't met, waste your time": The purpose of a red herring in literature is to lead the main characters off the obvious/given path, and to distract them. That could be given by another clue in plot, or by another character, but in either case it is a challenge that must be first overcome. Usually ending in an unknown false conclusion before the actual one is found. In essence, it has not yet been fully discovered or met. "Not blue/green/yellow, I am a piece of the sea": In real life, the red herring is a fish that is red. It also lives in the ocean. FONDOS WINNER: N/A PRIZE: N/A ANSWER: N/A ACCEPTED ANSWERS: Malic Acid EXPLANATION: The riddle is worded in a way that would naturally lead people to the Warhead Candy. If people were to check the wiki, the firstlisted chemical that goes into it is Malic Acid. They are hinted to do such by the following:" Unfathomably sour, chemical war, name is MALICious, should not repeat": MALIC acid is a CHEMICAL that is put into sour candy - in essence, it is what makes them sour to begin with. It tends to be delicious at first, only to eventually cause sores in the mouth if too many are ingested. The clue for this one was an outline for the molecular structure for Malic Acid, which is it's picture on Wikipedia. SOCIAL WINNER: N/A PRIZE: N/A ANSWER: N/A ACCEPTED ANSWERS:: Mimic or Mimic Chest EXPLANATION: "Our bindings, pain, greed be your sin": A mimic is traditionally awakened by either attacking them (pain) or adventurers have broken their locks/chains. Greed is the sin of the adventurer due to this, because they are their own undoing. "Impersonation, never changed faces, silent, bearing a tale": Mimics are ancient, their age being noted by the fact that they have carried on a rumor through time. They impersonate a chest, and they do not change from that at any point. They're also incapable of speaking despite having a mouth. "Nothing left, riches and misfortune, seekers never found": Since their legend was not spread by words, it was spread by people disappearing after opening them. Why would people open them? Because chests are usually full of treasure, and they have no way of knowing it was a mimic until its too late. The hint for this one is another play on greed. People are tempted by the riches, and "encompass" means causing something to take place (by opening the box), or literally being engulfed (mimics eat people). The first thing we think of when we think of "Pandora" is Pandora's box, which is said to contain all evil of the universe. Redolent meaning "reminiscent/strongly suggestive" - essentially, don't trust something that is similar to Pandora's box. It will tempt you and eat you. ASSISTANCE WINNER: N/A PRIZE: N/A ANSWER: N/A ACCEPTED ANSWERS: Fibula EXPLANATION: "My name is a liar, I am a crutch, you are alone without it, making you capable of being stable": "Fib" is another word for lie, and the fibula is one of the two bones in the shin. It's purpose is to provide stability when we walk. Therefore, if it is removed, naturally there will only be one bone left and it is alone. "Crackling voice, chilling to the bone": "Bone" is hinted here, and the only sound a bones makes is crackling or breaking. XAT_TEST WINNER: N/A PRIZE: N/A ANSWER: N/A ACCEPTED ANSWERS: Voodoo Doll EXPLANATION: "A plain explanation": Voodoo dolls are created out of hate, and their creators use them to bring pain onto others. It's very ritualistic and they are dressed up to match the appearance of the creator's target. They don't have any feelings for themselves because they are inanimate. The doll is created in the likeness of another because the two of them are meant to feel together. Any pain brought to the toy, is meant to be carried over onto the real person. Let's look at X88. In this gif, X88 is cut in half. The top half of X88 says "Voo". It is hinted that the appearance of X88 should be altered and "feeling together" is a euphemism for the two halves of "X88". FLIRT WINNER: N/A PRIZE: N/A ANSWER: N/A ACCEPTED ANSWERS: Banshee or Banshees EXPLANATION: "Distant morn(night), mourn, keen, scream, shimmer like fire, no frame": In mythology, banshees are known to come out at night. They are said to be widowed women who were killed or died without coming to peace with this world. They scream to warn people (a specific set of families) of danger. Keen(ing) is a traditional form of lament for the dead, usually done by women. They are also said to shimmer like wild fire. Their screams are said to be powerful enough to break glass. "Gather, time of grief for the great, before moral belief (as a warning), names carried": A group of banshees will gather if someone of great stature has fallen, or if they are about to die. They act as both creatures of grief, and a warning system for certain families (prefix O' and Mac, if you were curious). "Wives tale, change in word": They are simply legend. Old wive's tales. Their names have changed over the years (ghost, hags, fairies, cailleach) but they are, in essence, the same thing depending on the region and context. CHUAI WINNER: iVGS (252098492) PRIZE: 13,000 xats ANSWER: "A Crow" ACCEPTED ANSWERS: Crows or Crow EXPLANATION: "Sing, murder of many, gifts of shine, flying": These are all in relevance to birds, but more specifically the crow. A gathering of crows is called a murder, and they are known to have an affiliation for shiny things - which they will occasionally gift to humans they trust. "Bring me to the deep, Not death, soul, judge, guide": In mythology, crows are traditionally synonymous with the grim reaper. The grim reaper's job is to simply remove the soul from the body, guarantee its safe passage to where it is going, and let another be its judge. POMOCY WINNER: Austin (638877683) PRIZE: 13,000 xats ANSWER: "A raccoon?????" ACCEPTED ANSWERS: Raccoon. EXPLANATION: "Can of surprise, vice of cleanliness, eating food of all, stay in darkness": Naturally habitual of the raccoon. During the night, they are generally very peaceful creatures as long as they are not disturbed (in a trashcan, hunting for food). If seen during the day, they are likely to be carrying rabies which is causes extreme aggression in its host. Due to this they are not often welcome in residential areas and are rapidly removed (crisis). CAMBIO WINNER: N/A PRIZE: N/A ANSWER: N/A ACCEPTED ANSWERS: King's Gambit EXPLANATION: "Two steps from one, one step from two": The "one" who takes two steps is on the white side of the board, since they move first. The "two" who takes one step is on the black side of the board. This effectively means there is 1.5 turns occurring the begin this. It also means that the only piece that could possibly be moving for the first turn of both would either be a pawn, or a knight. A knight, however, also moves to the side rather than just forward. "Begin, gambit, accept/decline, bold (aggressive)/old": This is, once more, referencing the beginning of something. Rather than it just being the game that is beginning, it is given a new layer of depth and deemed a "gambit". In the king's gambit, one of the main aspects is that the opposing player is given the option to accept or decline it. In short, this means that the first 1.5 turns are beginning one of the oldest and most aggressive opening gambits in the game of chess. It also dictates which pieces could have possibly been moved. The rest of the clues simply point toward chess. BONUS WINNER: Paul (83735214) PRIZE: 2,000 xats ANSWER: Guidelines and Club Directory. ACCEPTED ANSWERS: Guidelines and Club Directory. EXPLANATION: The clue was straight forward. You would hunt the forum and check for where it would say "xat Halloween" and post your answer. To collect your prize visit this chat The Prize Chat. Congratulations to all the winners. Thanks, Haley and Majora once again for the event and help.
  2. @Brandon has added a hunt on the forum which is worth 2,000 xats. NOTE: This doesn’t mean you can enter in two answers, as the conditions didn’t change. There’s 11 clues now. Deadline is set for tomorrow. No no plans to change it anytime soon. Prize has also gone up to 13,000 xats per riddle solved. The reason for that is simple, the game is complex and challenges you. Once again, good luck and have fun. [ @XeR, users giving the riddles out doesn’t mean it’s the answer because there’s a back wall to it. They have to solve the riddle in order to get the answer. That was thought of already. It’s why I didn’t include it. Plus that’s a really dumb thing to do, giving out the riddles they find and having someone collect those xats instead of you once it’s solved. Talk about lost of time and xats there. ]
  3. ** UPDATED NOV 1ST ** This Halloween event was planned out and thought through very well. The hunt this time around will involve clues and riddles, the riddles are Halloween themed. Mini-games will be setup at random chats, so you can find riddles within them. We will provide you clues to where you should be looking for the chats participating in this event. Let's go over some conditions for this Halloween Hunt and unlike the Easter Hunt one, it will challenge you more than the last. CONDITIONS FOR GETTING A PRIZE: Find where the clue leads. Reveal the riddle through the mini-games set up. Reveal the mini-game, and try to solve it. Try to solve the riddle that you revealed, and post your answer in a reply to this forum thread.

  4. If I recall, this was done intentionally as it’s removed. (I’ll confirm this for you).
  5. Okay, closing this then. Thank you for trying, Brandon.
  6. Did anyone else get a captcha when trying to post? I’ve seen about two users get it and posted their ray ID.
  7. If I post my Ray ID will you hax0r me? I will meh your post to prove a point of dominance.

  9. <removed> BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH WTF *** *** **** **** ******* ***** ********** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The hell with your "Meh" thingy.
  10. http://prntscr.com/gzf3ve Not fixed. Are you trolling me, Sir? @Brandon
  11. I don’t understand why some of you would make a joke or mock Steven’s ideas in the first place since he’s right about a more modern style. That’s just immature. <Removed since he removed his part/> I took the “ criticism “ as a way to improve the layout of the HTML5 version. I don’t know who else is working on the CSS layout other than myself and the admins, but the ones who mocked other people’s suggestion is just wrong. This thread shouldn’t have been made yet for feedbacks, but designing the layout is more important to get fix, then comes bugs and with everything else. That that being said, I have reopened my private message inbox on the forum for ideas on the design to help aid in devoplement.
  12. New power: 462 MARK Function: User side only. Chat update number: 02102017 Some more information adding to Admin's reply. How to use: Command to use for this power: $mark=its#ff4400,she#ffffff,the,ask,you,and The following words would be highlighted accordingly to how you set it. The word " its " would be red and the other words would be white. Notes: Combined words for example, " its-cute " will be red (since it is set to red) along with the word frame from the first screenshot. Second screenshot is non-combined word. The word " its " and " the " are not combined, so they are highlighted to their respective colors that were set. Works in private chat too. & Must be at least 3 letters when set. This is a client-side power and it means only you can see it, not everyone else. You cannot see the words you set on your side if you're typing it. Someone else has to type the highlighted words you set. For long words, yes they do work. Words that are not set for example " iiiiiitttttttttsssssssss " would not be highlighted. The idea originated from Sloom's comment (was built with his idea):

    Y2 Error

    Error 2 or Y2 on mobile is a timed out error. Meaning you will have to close the app out out of multitask and then try to relogin again. Connection does play a role here as well. (Admins said this).
  14. Test power: 460 known as FLGPWN Price: 150 xats. Status: Unlimited. Example of the pawn: Hat code examples: The hat code used in the screenshot is (hat#hFit). For everypower holders (hat#EphFit). You can use all flags as your pawn, some may work better than others. [Quality likely] The power flag is not required. Hat power is required. Feel free to post or private message me any sort of bugs regarding this power. Thank you. Based off of Paul's idea:

    Version App

    That’s correct that you can download other applications from the App Store with iOS 7, but that’s because those applications support iOS 7 and were modify to the fit those i-devices at iOS 7. As previously said, the xat application only works with iOS 8. The xat application in the App Store states it requires iOS 8 or later as well. To the changes you suggested, the xat administrator can only make such changes to the app and I don’t see those changes happening any time soon. I also know it requires less resources and time as it’s an older iOS version. However, as previously said, the only one can do such changes are the administrator and I don’t see it happening any time soon.

    Version App

    Hi, When xat was working on the xat application it was planned to support iOS 8 and up and only. Unfortunately you would need to update to iOS 8 or higher to use the xat app. I have contacted the admins to look at this thread to give you more information if necessary.
  17. Reporting Sloom for not appreciating the P.A. Here's a few backgrounds Steven made for the chat as well - http://imgur.com/a/PtemV The second background was for the power namegrad (or namewave - I forgot) being released. It's one of my favorite backgrounds as well.
  18. The mountain background was one of my favorites!
  19. If you meant the mobile application, then yes it won't work until the app gets updated with the functions being added in. That is why it won't work.
