Azthor Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) If I may, once five points are awarded for a correct reason, as opposed to a very close one, can they still be bested by an exact phrasing of the reasons, or are they good enough that even the exact phrasing would not supersede them?

lashtal Posted September 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 1.Lash fulfilled his destiny by killing mur 2. Lash killed mur because he had to act in accordance with his nature 3.. Lash killed Mur to change someone's plans 4. Lash killed Mur to change what it means to be dead (or the function of death) 5. Lash Killed Mur to satisfy his desire for wisdom Two of them are almost correct, but they refer to a single reason only. So, 1 point only. Ok, time for a hint/clarification. One of the five reasons was the following: 1 - To fulfill the meaning/prophecy associated to my name (from my signature: "[...] we get a value for LAShTAL of 371, which graphically represents the penetration of 7 (desire) into 31 (the negation of God) [...]"). I considered correct/valid all those answers like "it was my destiny", "it was my nature" and so on. One more hint, the other 4 reasons are unrelated to my destiny, my nature, my forum signature and so on... 2 weeks left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
