iamsue Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 While we are waiting for our friend I Ran Away to respond, maybe Nie (presumed winner) could give us a new riddle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Hey, sorry for my absence ! I am extremely busy these days. I didn't have time to look through and respond to all posts in detail yet but @iamsue correctly decoded the first sentence !!! "Lying in the gutter, aiming for the moon". However, the solution is not Up&Up. Keep going ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 @Nie : Interesting theory, I like it ! But unfortunately not what I thought of... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Here's a new clue for you: If the target is the on the moon (as we found out through the decoded first sentence), can anyone decode what it means "what a secret everybody knows is to the place that you got found" ? I'll help you along: "Place that you got found" is a nod to Speed Of Sound, but that is actually misleading (not what it seems...) Remember, the target is on the moon. "Secret everybody knows" has already correctly been decoded as being from Ghost Story. So what is the latter in relation to the former (place where you got found) ?

Nie Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 @Nie : Interesting theory, I like it ! But unfortunately not what I thought of... Haha, I knew it was a long shot because it didn't fit all the way. Damn, I shouldn't have given away my reasoning, it would have been a nice riddle if I'm ever going to be able to solve one. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 secret everybody knows = Ghost story the place that you got found I have been looking for songs which are describing "a place". In "In my place" also has the sentence "I was scared" --> is this the relation to Ghost Story? Maybe this is also something: In Square One there are a few lines that seem to match with the other sentences in the riddle - to the end in the last place you were looking - the space in which we're travelling --> you have to go through space to get to the moon - deciphering the codes in you --> the puzzle part - I need a compass draw me a map --> I still got no answers, need help ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Unfortunately not, although your ideas clearly make me realize how many Coldplay songs touch upon the same themes :D So, where can the moon be found ? Think of a term for that. And then answer the question, what is Ghost Story in relation to that term ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisbe Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Talk, "nothing is really making any sense at all!" lol A place a related to the lyrics is Japan or China from Speed of Sound. But at the same time I thought about night which led me to Midnight. But, I still can't find the relationship among the lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Dont try to find a random place. We already know the target is on the moon. If you look up at night, where can you see the moon ? Find a term for that. And then find out what Ghost Story is in relation to it ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Another theory: The moon is amongst the stars, the universe. In "Moving to Mars" there is this line "The wreckage of a universe floats past". And also "And the seconds just remain unchanged", "We might never meet again, you and me". When you are a ghost, times stands still and people don't see you. :wink3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Awww Nie you have the best theories ever but it is never the connection that I thought of ! :D The moon is amongst the stars This is a good idea. Now can you rephrase that a bit ? And then you will see that Ghost Story relates to it in a very simple way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 The Milky Way is the best thing I can think of but I don't see the relation with Ghost Story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 OK, I make it easier for us to move forward. When you look up at night and you see the moon, what is it surrounded by ? There is a song title for just that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 A sky full of stars And now relate that to Ghost Story... a heavenly view ? I'm getting to tired to think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMDB9 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Well looking back a few hints, I was gonna say Square One, but now i need to search for the space thing.... Oh wait is it ASFOS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Yes ! A Sky Full Of Stars. Don't think too much about the lyrics here. What is Ghost Story to A Sky Full Of Stars ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMDB9 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Well it's the album (kinda) it came off of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMDB9 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 And I'm gonna need someone to fully explain this riddle....also if anyone else wants to make a clue, they can because they did all the work to get to this point...I just swooped in at the end and solved it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Well it's the album (kinda) it came off of No...look again closely at the two songs mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran away Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 But I'm gonna be very generous with plain hints now so that we can get through it quickly ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMDB9 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 So ASFOS isn't the final answer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
