      Save up your money and pay the man. It's well worth it!

      If there were, it would involve your character's name to be a specific preset name of approxmately 10 digits. What that would be I won't say.

      In other words, no, you really need to pay(unless you want to attempt 26^10 combinations to guess the possibly correct one).

      You actually went through the trouble of making this happen? And the number of combinations would be 10^10. (0-9 with 10 spots).

      But in each of those spots you can put any one of 26 letters.

      Stark said ten digits, not ten letters or ten characters. (He also said approxmately 10, making me think that it isn't 10, but 11 or 9).

      EDIT: Stark also said, if there was... So there is a possibility that the approxmately 10 digit thing doesn't even exist!

      But you type your name in the box, not your numbers. So whether or not he said digits or letters the fact remains that there are 26 possible entries for each spot.

      Ohh. I usually don't count letters as digits, just numbers.

    • Who would actually take all that time to guess the name(slash)passwordÉ Sob... We have no lives...

    • Hmm. S Bledfast is ten characters. So is Mike Zeman. Mike Zeman is the more likely of the two.

      Neither of which will gain you free access to a room in the tower. 😉

    • Rats. Can you give any hints Stark? Is it a bunch of gibberish or is it real word(s).

      As I said at the top of this thread, "Save up your money and pay the man. It's well worth it!"

    • Okay, Stark, you have to at least give a cryptic clue that nobody understands or ever will understand and a cryptic smile. Where's your cryptic spirit?

      What is that supposed to mean? I tried to use it as a name, but no free room, so it's obviously not the answer.

      I didn't know what to put
      here, so I just put this
      down.

      It's supposed to mean, "a cryptic clue that nobody understands or ever will understand." Didn't you read mithrandir's post? 🙂
