How Worldy really works
Okay, so even the people who got it don't seem to understand what Worldly is about, so here it is.
| Spoiler (Rollover to View): |
The symbols are letters or syllables in different writing systems. They need to be dragged onto the outline of a country that uses that system. That will play the name of the letter/syllable.
When you say the SOUND the symbol makes, it spells out the answer.
|
the answer:
| Spoiler (Rollover to View): |
| The first symbol is Cyrillic, used in Russia. The letter is pronounced, "eh". The second is German. It is called Eszett (sz or double s), and pronounced like s. The next is Hebrew pe (Israel), which is pronounced p. Then, is rho (Greece), pronounced r. Then, Hindi a (India), a. then, Arabic nun (damned if I can tell what country that's supposed to be), n, and Japanese to. Esperanto.

... and then I found it. So if someone else can't find QR,
| Spoiler (Rollover to View): |
| it's on the same page as Middle Office.

I feel sort of dumb, but I can't find the QR seal at all. (I also can't solve the last Master Chef phase.) Where is QR hiding?

That last one sounds about right, though "eszett" can be replaced with the 'S' sound.
Now start slurring the words together and see what happens.

Regarding 'Worldly', once the letters are in order, listen to them: left to right, top to bottom. You may have find the name of the letter for Germany; everything else is merely a matter of hearing— and joining all languages together. |
| Spoiler (Rollover to View): |
| Are the last two toh-ah or ah-toh. Not that I hear anything either way... eh-eszett-peh-rho-nun-toh-ah or eh-eszett-peh-rho-nun-ah-toh.
|
I'm not sure if my speakers are bad or my ears.
Thanks.

Regarding 'QR', the fourth letter is not C.
| Spoiler (Rollover to View): |
| It's "Arrr", or R.

Worldly
Still nowhere...
| Spoiler (Rollover to View): |
| Russia, Germany, Israel, Greece, India, ???, ???. I believe I have identified the correct characters for the first five. Either way I arrange the remaining two symbols, nothing happens. I "sort of" get the sounds but they don't sound like anything to me. I guess sort of like the people that can't see stereograms.
|
Help please!
Thanks!

Yes, that's it, manipulate

|

I'm using Microsoft Office Picture Manager (the only program I have that can do that type of manipulation), tried what you suggest, but still see nothing. |
Try this: http://www.picnik.com/ |
That did it, thanks!

When you find it, you'll know

If you use the hint M provided in terms of the property of the image you might manipulate
| Spoiler (Rollover to View): |
| Getting the answer will require seeing the full image at once

If you were new, you'd look for help. Then

Thanks, that did it! |
