What grows on a palm and lasts 24 hours?

nahhorne

The platpool riddle, does anyone have an idea of what it is? It's something to do with a "date" I bet.

So it's clearly a date. The people suggesting it starts with a 4 or 8 are very likely wrong.

I just tried Deadpool's birthday which is listed on Google as 11/22/1973 - assuming it's in US format

I figured it would be today's date since today is Day of the Dead

Tried 64617465 and 14114415, two ways to convert the word DATE into a string of 8 numbers, and neither worked. Didn't expect them to but wanted to eliminate them

How do we know if the correct numbers were entered?

What about the date that Deadpool first got introduced into MCOC? That would be 10082016, I think. Anyone tried that?

Ok, here's the thing. The mail says the riddle should help us "start guessing the combination" so I'm assuming there's more to come.

a lot of anime things, look at release dates for iconic shows or mangas. also maybe the release date of yu-gi-oh or the cards that this event if based off of.

Assuming the 8 digits are in fact a date (which seems likely) without knowing what format they are putting the date in that means you have to try each date multiple times:
DD-MM-YYYY
MM-DD-YYYY
YYYY-MM-DD

GroundedWisdom

What's the date that V8 drops?

FlintTheSavage

04-01-20-05 also gave me nothing

DD-MM-YYYY
MM-DD-YYYY
YYYY-MM-DD

YYYY-MM-DD is how it’s presented in your mail so that’s the way I’d imagine

Zeraphan

While I don't disagree with that logic, since we can't even get crystals with the correct drop rates I just gave up on making any assumptions about anything anymore with this game...

What's the date that V8 drops?

Tried that already. Nov 10th as well as 17th. But I tried MMDDYYYY format.

If it is… then I got a lot of numbers to re enter

Date and day

Just because they can't solve the Parry/Dex issues, they give us this Puzzle to solve too.
Maybe once we solve this, parry/dex issue will be fixed lol.

So everyone’s going with dates whic h is optimistic considering that the riddle had nothing to do with dates, if I had to guess I’d say it has something to do with all the times that play pool has been released and his inspiration

FlintTheSavage

Tried the date the song heart shaped box released and no luck either

What grows on palms? Date fruit.

Really? Because a calendar date lasts 24 hours, and the date fruit grows on top of a palm, but no, I’m sure you are right and the rest of us are dumb

That's assuming the riddle itself works as intended which might be a stretch.

I'm trying a different approach and try 20141210 , might or might not work.

Alright, so I'm gonna bring about some theories, some of them are LARGE stretches like the first one for instance but I'm putting it there anyways.

1. The release date for "Heart Shaped Box" by Nirvana.
2. Any of the incarnations of Deadpool's birthdays
3. The original release date of the Deadpool event quest
4. The release date of the first platinum pool event
5. The upcoming release date for the variant of the Deadpool event quest
6. Grows on your hand that last 24 hours? Anything related to eternals perhaps? That question with the set of numbers leaves me dumbfounded.
7. Venompool's buff release(took about a day before people stopped caring about it, and it "growing in our hand" could be eluding to that).
