13/08/2022 - Enregistrement n° 38 - 01:52:30 :30: The “doubt” of the last enigma – Reasoning and solutions

(Q - ??: if this evening, I don't want to over-interpret, but if players who think they are very advanced cannot talk to you about it, even in a cryptic way , because it's not the place, but let's imagine that I tell you that the last doubt that is inflicted on me, in the Super Solution, is something that is typically pirated, it's something that does enough echo and I think that the last doubt, what it represents, remains in the imagination of pirate treasures.)

MB : is it possible to have a notion of what this last doubt would be?

(Q - ??: it would be a tangible item that is on the side of a road and not very far from the cache.)

MB : the problem is once again a notion of vocabulary when we talk about doubt, that...

(Q - ??: I say the doubt of the last enigma of the 520, therefore is in fact, in my Super Solution, a tangible element)

MB : yes but it is a tangible element and why is there any doubt about it?

(Q - ??: if I say why it is a doubt, I give the very nature of this element)

MB : okay

(Q - ??: why don't you go digging?)

MB : because he has a doubt...

(Q - ??: I'll go soon, I'm just trying to tell Michel without asking for validation, be careful when you say no one has a Super Solution, maybe I don't I haven't but this is the first time I've spoken in public...)

MB : it's good, it's a very good thing to do it, doubt, this notion of doubt, doubt is the last torture that will be inflicted on you, this doubt, it's a real doubt. What is a doubt? When as an artist I doubt, that means I am absolutely not sure, for example what I painted or an idea that I have or I don't know, is it good, is it - what's not good, I'm going to talk about doubt.
And when we talk about doubt, the last doubt that will be inflicted on you, it means that we have a real uncertainty, an uncertainty which concerns the way in which we must either understand, or interpret, or translate, or transpose, whatever. -I, elements that we have in our heads. It's not a doubt that would consist of saying is it that or is it not that.
It is a doubt which consists of saying, am I reasoning well, are there other possibilities, other answers to the question I am asking myself, that is doubt.
We do not doubt an object, we doubt a reasoning, we doubt an idea, ...)

(Q - ??: I understand well, but for me this doubt is a tangible element...)
(Q - nlc: so it's not good, he just told you)
(Q - ??: I'm just saying that doubt is always a coded message for a tangible item that is close to a road)
(Q - nlc: you must not have listened correctly because clearly....)


MB : my goal is not to say it's good or it's not good, my goal is to say what will happen in the player's head, why are we telling him speaks of a doubt as being the last torture? Torture is an interesting notion, torture means that the doubt we are faced with offers several tempting answers, torture well you have the choice, you take either a chocolate cake or a lemon tart, my god what torture , I want both, which one should I choose?
Well, it's a caricature but it's this doubt that we're talking about, it's a doubt that consists of saying, well, I found this, now what do I do with it? I could do what with it, I could do that with it, but what do I do with it? Here is the doubt, so if you are in this configuration it is not incompatible with the good Super Solution...

(Q - ??: what if in the area there is an incredible number of doubts and there is only one which is a particular characteristic, which is close to the universe pirates, well there you go and I think and don't tell me if it's true but I just think that I am, in any case if it is not the case, very close to the Super Solution and therefore I think that knowing that you have 1000 unread messages, even if I'm not right, there may be others who have already written, that's what I'm trying to tell you but in all friendship.)

MB : but then it is in all friendship that I receive it but with appetite because I love this kind of exchange, because your enthusiasm touches me enormously and because that is what makes the beauty of this hunt.
I'm dying to say it, in fact, what excites me today is not at all hunting itself, I have it at the limit...that interests me more, what interests me really it's the exchanges with the players, it's the stories they tell me and the passion they display for this game.
That's what's extraordinary, so what you're telling me I can't take lightly, absolutely not laughing at it, making fun of it or anything, I'm listening very attentively, I think that what you have in mind is a notion of doubt which remains compatible with the Super Solution, there are perhaps things which are less so, that is up to you to see, nevertheless, I try to explain through our exchange there, precisely, that there is a notion of doubt at the time of the Super Solution and that this notion of doubt is based on the fact that there are several solutions, several outcomes not solutions, several tempting outcomes to this Great Solution but there is only one that is good.

(Q - Nabil: I have a doubt, it's not a binary choice, I have several solutions as you say and I have the impression that to resolve it, I would have to do proof...)

MB : what do you call raising?

(Q - Nabil: to remove this doubt, I have to use logic, would that be better?)

MB : logic, once you get there, logic is sure to be useful.

(Q - Nabil: this is the logic that will allow me to remove this doubt in fact, I say to myself I have something to do and I must do it...how can I say I have I don't really want to say about it...to remove this doubt I have several choices available to me and it's really not binary and with logic I say to myself ok, it could be there, do what I have to accomplish I will do it there, is it something like that?)

MB : that's a way of saying it and that we could actually accept, there are options that cause doubt, that's for sure.

(Q - Nabil: I only have one doubt, I have the impression that everything is good in my Super Solution and I arrive at a certain point, I feel a little stuck and with a little logic I say to myself OK but from my chair I'm not sure since you have to check on site of course and so that's where I am)

MB : these pirates weren't altar boys, when they hide their loot there's money in it, so the guys are doing something where just anyone can't stumble upon them like that, it's not a 2 ball thing. So once again if the problem is posed clearly, the answer is, as Max Valentin said, within the reach of a 15 year old child, very probably, it will perhaps take a little longer than an adult but he will find.
On the other hand, if the question is not clearly asked, well, we don't know what to answer. That's it, it's always the same problem.
