Wingdings Riddle
« on: April 27, 2008, 08:33:11 pm »
The string STRU, in wingdings, makes an actual word (or, more likely, a riddle itself). What is it?



(I don't know the answer, but I can verify if it's right. I've been trying to get it for hours..)

Hint: I can confirm that three of these four words are correct: waterdrop, snowflake, sun, cross. I would guess that "waterdrop" is the wrong one.

Sadly, I can't verify the first word. Long story.

I'm reasonably sure it's "water", though, that makes the most sense.

Water, Snowflake, Sun, Cross... what are snowflakes uncrossed? But I can't think of what the answer to that would be.

How are you checking to see if they're right?

This is part of a game, I can input the final answer.

The way I know that 3 of the 4 words are right was by asking somebody, but he won't confirm which is wrong or whether or not new guesses are right.

Haha.  I knew what that said immediately.  :)
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Well, let's just say he changed the R in STRU.  :)

I see 3 seasons (spring, winter, summer) and Christianity. Since fall is missing, I'd guess, "The fall of Christianity," but that doesn't seem right based on your friend's hint.

I don't think that's right, but it's a great try! :)
