Veni, Vidi, Vici #27

Wow.. I'm pretty surprised (and SUPER PLEASED) that I got to WINNN a DA Handwriting Hunt again (via my alt account @BlackCloverCreations)!! Mwaaahahaha.. thanks so muuuch..!

Fireworks Total Prize: Fireworks

700 Fragments 

 Jolly Roger by SlytherclawPadawan Locked Box - Five Nights at Freddy's 4 - Icon GIF La jumping in Points

 I know it's 'just' DA fragments, but why do I feel like won something 100x of its value?!




Now prepare your coffee, tea, hot cocoa, rum, or whatever your poison is and also a magnifying glass as Detective Clover will show you a little walkthrough. Here we go!  

For the obvious ones, namely, the handwritings belong to @KizukiTamura, @Malintra-Shadowmoon, @Barosus, and @BeckyKidus, it's all common sense, you could easily compare their deviations containing their handwritings to the ones in the game journal. Maybe that's why 400 points was the most common score.

So how did I guess correctly beyond that? For @TokyoMoonlight and @moonbeam13 , I still have their samples from 2020's game answers - yes, there's a similar hunt 3 years ago (and I won that one too, mwahaha..!), that's my (and anybody-who-knows-about-it's) advantage. You can spot the similarities right away, even the ink colors are the same.

Meanwhile, my other right guess, which is @morbidman187 's handwriting, it's PURE INTUITION which I'm proud of lmao, didn't expect it to be spot on! Wish I were as spot on as this for the rest of the writings. And nope, he's not one of the CVs in the 2020 game, so no previous samples!

@morbidman187


Now let's talk about the tricky, elusive ones nobody got right.

@Queen-Kitty


I've explored @Queen-Kitty 's gallery and I could barely find a writing sample, except for very few. And those few show only inconsistency all across, so I didn't expect this was hers. Actually, I guessed it's @pinkythepink 's because it kinda matches pinky's 2020's sample, especially the A letter. Come on.. my guess should have been right, shouldn't it?

@pinkythepink


I thought I had eliminated @pinkythepink, so I guessed this belongs to @AlexanderPaupoff because I thought the small caps A in this particular handwriting looks the closest to their samples. But.. nope!

@phoenixleo

Just like everybody else, initially I guessed this one as @morbidman187 's for the "morbid" look, but I sensed it's just too obvious, so I switched to @Queen-Kitty because she likes to write texts with inky media - and still wrong. But even if I compare this one with @phoenixleo 's 2020's writing, still doesn't make sense to me.. he's such a shapeshifter lol.

@phoenixleo, Handwriting Hunt 2020

Talking about being a shapeshifter, I think I better give that award to @AlexanderPaupoff, because judging from the samples in their gallery, the handwriting below is just so DIFFERENT from those and already very CONSISTENT in its character. So I didn't guess it's theirs, coz if it was, it would be like CHANGING PERSONALITIES! Not an impossibility, but by the balance of probability, it just doesn't happen to most people. Unless.. I wonder if I'm right, let me know in the comment if you're really that flexible or adaptable.. meaning you may be good at social engineering with the potential talent of being a conman/conwoman, a spy, a double agent, or at least a master forger. [Please don't take it seriously, I'm no expert, no idea what I'm talking about!  ]

There you go, folks. Detective Clover hath spoken, may you all get enlightened by my grey cells (logic) and purple cells (intuition) lmao!  

Amidst all the chaos created by AI (no, more like, by GREEDY HUMANS who is using AI not exactly for the common good) including in this DA platform, I'm still thankful for fun events like this thanks to the CVs. By the way, how curious that the scores were distributed in only a few numbers: 700, 400, 200, 100.. why does this remind me of radio frequencies? 

Anyway, Detective Clover / Slytherclaw Padawan is always ready to pounce on the next treasure hunts you'll be creating! Because even though I've discovered the wonderful, amazing world of puzzle hunts out there where the puzzles are LEGIT PUZZLING, pushing your grey & purple cells to the MAX, I still can't win a single one yet, as they're often designed 99% for teams instead of individual solvers. The tasks are often laborious, not only logically & intuitively tricky, that you'd get exhausted quick by playing solo. So I still love these easy hunts coz it's good for my personal morale, yeaahh! 

Thanks so much again for the game and the prize, looking forward to the next fun events (ehm.. another Halloween Hunt please, please, pleeeeeeez..!!).
