Four am on chat alone is really weird. There's usually someone else on.

Possibly Woozle.

Didn't think about that angle. It would actually make a shit ton of sense... Nice one Slendythor!

I think there's been enough time between posts to excuse the double.

I'm in chat with a Guest who has Admin power, pray to your deity that this person is one of ours...

Sorry for the absence, my internet has been having issues. I'm gonna text the Piglet answer tomorrow, but I'm gonna leave it along tonight to try and give the Unforum and Youtube people time to agree/disagree.

Piglet sounds right to me.

Check me and my double posting.

"Piglet. And Stop opening doors ya numbnuts" - sent as of right now.

Dude, I am totally room Admin atm!

Bearpoke: http://tinychat.com/fqq3r come join me.

New clue friends

Theories in da Tiny Chat. WOOT!

What is: I have absolutely no fucking clue, Alex.

Just a quick stop before I go for interviews. My money is on Roo. There's a whole child resenting a parent thing going on in that story.

Roo, or Tigger maybe?

That's exactly what I was thinking! That, and I'm not sold on the Tigger argument since he wasn't in the original book, which is what we've been working with so far.

Yeah, I'd also be quick to dismiss anybody who wasn't in the original book.

The energy and the non-conformity aspect sounds like Tigger to me. But I can also see it being Roo adressing the fact that everyone is older than he is.

And we now have two people on Team Tigger on this one guys. I just dissected the video and found it oddly fit him more. I can see where everyone is thinking Roo, being the child to next grow up.

This is what I got from snippings of the latest Help3r video.

"You cannot understand me. You cannot see me."
", you are too slow, too somber, too brain shatteringly plain."

We don't always fully understand what Tigger is trying to say when he's going a million miles a minute. He's so literally off the way that we just can't follow him all the time, we are too slow.

"I thought you knew me,
fooled myself into believing you understood me."

This is just reiterating the last part to me.

"You consider me lowly, unruly, undeserving of your patience,"

It's hard to not get frustrated with someone who is bouncing all around you yapping.

"You thought you had to take care of me, like a brat who would never grow up."

Aaaaaaand this is where everyone thinks it's Roo. But Tigger is just as capable being childish and scatterbrained.

"It is you who stand in my way."

Maybe he bounces around because we're too slow to get out of his way?

"I will not slow to your monotonous existence, wallowing in a bog of conformity."

"Until me meet again, Goodbye."

Ta ta for now.

I know he wasn't in the book, but this video just points to Tigger too much to ignore in my eyes.

A complaint many children have for their parents. Especially over protective ones like Kanga. Accusing their parents of being "boring" when not allowed so something potentially dangerous.

Have any of us EVER not had our parents act like we were being unduly childish? Or treated us like a child simply because they don't understand why we disagree with them?

"You thought you had to take care of me, like a brat who would never grow up."

Aaaaaaand this is where everyone thinks it's Roo. But Tigger is just as capable being childish and scatterbrained.

Some parents, especially the over protective ones never stop treating their offspring as a child, even after they grow up.

"It is you who stand in my way."

Children of an over protective parent (sometimes just children, actually) often accuse their parent(s) of holding them back. And if a parent doesn't learn to back off when the child reaches a certain age/level of maturity they actually do hold them back.

"I will not slow to your monotonous existence, wallowing in a bog of conformity."

"Until me meet again, Goodbye."

The life you make me live is too safe and too boring.

Ta ta for now.

Yes, this has all of the energy of Tigger. But Tigger and Roo have very, VERY similar personalities. They are both very energetic and rather outspoken.
Yes, both have people attempting to stifle their energetic personalities. But it's obvious from the story that the particular person trying it is having some success. To my knowledge, nobody ever succeeded in making Tigger less Tiggerish, but Kanga does have a lot of success in restricting Roo.

For what it is worth, I am voting for roo. It seems like much more of a stretch to extended these clues to fit tiger when they seem to scream rebellion from a child.

But Roo never seemed terribly rebellious to me. He more or less listens to his mother, and if we're going off of the fact that it's a child to a parent, it could just as easily be Christopher Robin.

In past riddles there have been small but straight foward clues in the text, and it's usually the most obvious choice that requires the least interpretation. I really think it's Tigger. The discussion of "not keeping up" and being unique sounds awfully like Tigger to me. He is the only one of his kind, and he is the fastest animal in the forest.

I feel like this kind of reminds me of the Tigger movie, but that's not really reliable for the clue.

We know it's not Christopher Robin because Help3r made it very clear that the passwords are a single word.

There have been two past riddles.
The first had such an obvious answer we were afraid it was too obvious.
The second was obvious but more because of the pig in the room, the riddle itself was actually slightly trickier than the first riddle.

Well, at this point I'm getting kinda even votes between Tigger and roo.

Sorry for the double post but I've sent the text. This was a close vote, but it seems pretty middle of the fence. In the end the most votes were for tigger.

"Tigger. How long have you been there?"
