It looks like mini versions of the main image to me as well (timely discussion this, I got this card today), but there does appear to be a bit of variation - unless that's just my eyes!

As I said in the other thread, to me it looks like miniature versions of the main image on the card.

(in case it matters, mine's not a wave0.5)

I see SOMETHING, I'm not sure what though (btw, what version is your on?, mine is 0.5)

Hahahaha! I've thought about this passage loads of times since I started playing Perplex City, and especially once it became clear that there were Risk references everywhere!

Worth looking at the thread for the card #237 too, there are thoughts on the writing on that.

EDIT - Well done JayJay for getting 2nd spot with no hints!

I'll try and get a labelled version but you can actually see where the text is on the scan in the card topic. If you look in the left hand border in the middle, half way up the card, it's just a faint grey line.

The text on the card itself (i.e not on the scan) is big enough to make out that its text, and not a smudge, but small enough so that you can't actually read it without a magnifying glass!

I think it would be pretty difficult to get an actual scan of it and it might be against the rules...


Someone suggested it as a postcode... although I think the full stops may indicate its something else... maybe a book chapter or passage reference?

Re: Wave 4 - Tiny microscopic writing found on Silver

Congrates Mattyjh for being super observant. Shame you had no way of maynifying it to find out what it says


Thanks!

I spent about 30 minutes squinting at it trying to figure out what it said but knew I needed a proper magnifying glass or something!

I remembered mind candy saying about using mincroscopic writing in some of their cards (I think everyone started desperately looking in the "shuffled" border) and so I thought I'd have a peek at the new silvers!

Seems there are a lot more clues in the new wave!

The far left? I meant the one underneath the points.

Right I've looked through my 30x Microscope and can see nothing on 419

Thick black line under Perplexcity logo.
To the far left right, just a line made up of colour ink dots

Hope this helps

I don't see anything suspicious on my two wave 4 silvers, 253 (Sightseeing) and 254 (Escape) though I don't have a magnifying glass handy to check in detail.

I also checked my 240 (Elucidate), since it's part of the same set as 237, but didn't see anything there either. That said, it is a wave 0.5 one, so things may have changed since.

It all sounds a bit like this, doesn't it?



Rimmer: Er....what.. Captains message

Andy: The one in the microdot in the 'I' in Rimmers swimming certificate. That's the clue. Rimmer having a swimming certificate and he can't swim.

Rimmer: That's a clue !!!

Andy: A blatant clue isn't it.

Rimmer: A blatant clue to what.

Andy: A blatant clue to the truth behind Rimmer.

Rimmer: Which is ......

Andy: The truth to why he is such an insufferably pratt.

Rimmer: That's because of his parents, his upbringing, his background. The fact that he was never loved.

Andy: He was a hand picked special agent for the space corp and had his memory erased and was programmed to behave like a complete twonk so nobody would suspect he was on a mission to destroy Red Dwarf in order to guide Lister to his destiny as the creator of the second universe.



Off to find my magnifier and examine my (single) Wave 4 Silver. Well done on the find...

If you can read that, then what about #097, 419 SCAM?
It has two patches which could be mini writing.
