    Providing more hints.


    And the equation resolves to ____ (who am I)




    Easier version: 22171000 < 9.8083 < 5 = ? (who am I)
    Slightly more accurate : 221710006.6 < 9.8084 < 5 = ? (who am I)


    Who is that person coded in the form of a mathematical expression ?

    Clue# Calligraphy (that is very fanciful word to use for my unartistic fingers, but the strokes, curves in the handwriting I meant) in the image

    The puzzle is not about a backward Brit, the maker perhaps is!

    Uploading less obscurant picture, loads of clues now.

    Again ,


    Easier version: 22171000 < 9.8083 < 5 = ? (who am I)
    Slightly more accurate : 221710006.6 < 9.8084 < 5 = ? (who am I)

    Clue#

    Why am I entombed in numbers?
    Perhaps the puzzle is alpha-numeric in more than one way, alpha-alpha-numeric about a alpha man in his "field of expertise"?
    Is my handwriting wonky or deliberate?
    Crack the first and the last part, you are done! the middle is just a filler

    [2217] _____[5]


    View attachment 210943


    Dead giveaway#

    ["2217"] ["1000"] ["6.6"] ["<"] ["9.8"] ["0"] ["84"] ["<" ["5"] = ? (who am I)


    P.S: I think someone will hit me with a brick this time! The britalia was play on ritaliation of a woman (from Britannia) while watching Series 5 of Dr Who, what puzzle to post in the thread, nothing hinting the answer :oops:

    Saw a new puzzle and just had to sneak in for a minute. I don't have time for an explanation or subtle clues (or any confidence in my solution) but...






    Are we talking about a certain io(c)nic gentleman who philosophized that a square and a square is nothing but a square....perhaps rightly?

    Hayya! Hayya! I tested this (version#2) against two of my friends, whatsapp-ed the image and both cracked it in minutes, so I had to alter and straighten as (version#1) thinking , goodness the audience in this thread will crack it in seconds if my mates cracked in mins, with the intention of trickling slanting clues in images subsequently.


    I am so happy that this did not fall flat like Nellie! :kiss

    Correction pls read:

    >>Uploading less obscurant picture, loads of clues now.

    (AS)

    >>    Uploading less obscurant picture, tons of clues now.


    Darn, the edit window.

    Pop trivia time again! Identify the common thread that brings these disparate images together.


    These lines provide clues to the identity of the four images but not necessarily in order. The clues are pretty straightforward with no hidden meanings.

    On a golden bed he sat,
    guarding the mountain's heart,
    For centuries suspended in time,
    unleashing his wrath at the directive prime
    The bomb of bletchley,
    the father of HAL,
    The deerstalker chasing the game,
    until his deadly fall.


    The idea for this quiz isn't mine, I found it on a quizzing forum. The execution is mine.

    (Is this really a walk in the park?)




    From a mute reader to a " Yay I got it" :crazy
    Of course it helped that I caught the "Great Fall" in action, missing the deerstalker.
    And then the trekkies and is that someone looking smaug? Who said you can't learn something from TV??


    That's just half done... still lost......And then I read an article of a summer of turing Coonoor?????

    Gauri,

    Very nice puzzle! I think I have it...but when you say common thread can you be more specific?
