I can see the logic but wat u jst sed about 'free speech'. Doesn't that apply to them telling ppl the answer. Surely thats free speech?

Why have you spoiled it for others then? Those that will be wanting to buy them?Quote:

I attempted to justify my actions in my previous post, but we will all have our own likes/dislikes/personal preference.

It's not a quest as such - it's a number of very simple clues telling you what time the rare is coming out. Hardly earth shattering. We can all take a step outside for a moment, remind ourselves that this rare is not going to be a "get rich quick" scheme, and continue to use Habbo. (Or ragequit - but givez me ur stuffz. :D)
This thread has dragged on long enough - and is on a topic along the lines of "should people be able to help others work out a time for a rare release". Yes - I can see very little in my post that's on topic, and if I deserve an infraction then so be it - but so do many others in this thread, because the topic of "Dead duck 3 mish Change.. ?" has been lost long ago in the midst of this disagreement, and I don't have anything left to say on the original topic, aside from replying to individual posts that were directed to me personally.
Can't we just forget about the new rare for just a little bit, and... smile? :)
@simeon1011:
:( As I've said twice already - I posted in the other thead how to work the answer out, pages after the answer was given. I'm in the same boat as everyone else - I had the answer thrown at me over console long before I found where the clues were hidden. I hate answers without reasons, which is what I was given. The majority of people will be in the same situation, and it is such a hard one to avoid. I suspect it's because it's a rare release (and not a quest as such) that people are not as secretive as usual.
And to note: I DO agree with the majority - I would prefer the answers not revealed. I would not have explained to N!ckG how to work it out if the answer hadn't already been posted. (Yes, I could have PM'd him, but that's a mistake on my part - everybody makes mistakes. Plus, it might have helped those that were equally confused.)
Edit again: No simeon, you didn't. ^_^

Fair enough, I see what you mean, its a different type of thing I suppose and in essense people are going to be a bit more excited about it.
Sorry if I annoyed you Barmi :P

VEry nice essay there :P
And i totally agree, and also shouldnt we all be getting infractions? The subject of 'dead duck 3 mish change' was abandoned ages ago in being overcome by our debate.
And also what makes this thread so special that it hasn't been closed? every other thread that goes this far off the subject gets closed immediately!!

Barmi thank you for telling us, i mean all you sad people who are getting worked up about a game, it's quite selfish really and barmi was just giving a helping hand to everyone and i totally agree with what barmi has said and everyone just stop having a go!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well lets ot get so worked up about a rare, have we forgot that it is just a re-colour! of a rare we dnt even like that much!
In the end it is only a game and stop taking it so seriously. U lot are having a go at each other over a few pixels that alot of ppl can get. Stop complaining and jst enjoy it!
This thread as got out of hand and we dnt even know that it will be the black drag and we dnt know if it will be released at 13.30, it might be another clue that we can argue about.
So lets jst all calm dwn over this small thing.
Well anyway, Well Noticed :P :)
man seriously, stop with the long postssQuote:
