The 1+1 means that this hint is actually easy. Throwing out random answers is what we're doing with this hint. Follow the bread crumbs means that the SBR has created a path for us which we should follow to get the answer.

Basically, OS told us that the path to the answer is easy but our random guess are messing the path up.

Or I really screwed up in trying to understand what he said.
Thank goodness, somebody understands.

Hmmmmmmm I think I got it :) But there are some glaring holes, just like many of the other crazy theories that have been posted, so please help out if you can think of more ways this references the character. Hmmmmm I'm prolly just wrong :dizzy:

This week is: Mario!

1. This was a therapeutic chain of events...: Panic! at the Disco - Camisado

The character is from a long videogame chain; therapeutic because it's reaped in cash for Nintendo :)
Disco = Mario Party, or even Mario DDR lol

2. Guess I'm not the fighting kind...: Keane - A Bad Dream

Mario games are mostly platformers. Or puzzles or RPGs.
Super Mario 2, is all Mario's bad dream.

3. ...Will we always say we tried?: Lost Prophets - Rooftops

Lost Prophets either references Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, or Mario is Missing. This is the weakest link IMO.

4. And I've lost all doubt in a chemical romance...: The Used - Take it Away

This one is Dr. Mario

5. We tried to wash our hands of all of this...: The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen

Washing = FLUDD. Pipes = Mario too obviously.

6. Doors inside my head, bolted from within...: Audioslave - Shadow of the Sun

Super Mario Sunshine, anyone? Or even Mario Galaxy, or Legend of the Seven Stars
In Mario 64 you go around unlocking doors all over the castle.

Iunno, it's not very good, but the washing hands = FLUDD and Shadow of the Sun = sunshine is almost enough to convince me.

This thread makes people who sit in their houses in the fetal position while wearing tin foil hats so that government satellites can't spy on them look like perfectly humdrum individuals.

Oh hey what are these little dots I'm leaving behind...

Guess I’m not the fighting kind...
...Will we always say we tried?
And I’ve lost all doubt in a chemical romance...
We tried to wash our hands of all of this...
Doors inside my head, bolted from within...
That sounds like something they would say in Kingdom Hearts. But this is what I say.

"This was a therapeutic chain of events" is a line from the song Camisado by Panic at the Disco
"Guess I'm not the fighting kind" is a line in the song Bad Dream by Keane
"Will we always say we tried" is a line in the song Rooftops by LostProphets
"And i've lost all doubt in a chemical romance" is a line in the song Take it Away by The Used
"We tried to wash our hands of all of this" is a line from the song The Freshmen by The Verve Pipe
"Doors inside my head, bolted from within"is a line from the song Shadow on the sun by Audioslave.

These are all song lines. Here are the lyrics to each song:

Camisado
The I.V. and your hospital bed
This was no accident
This was a therapeutic chain of events

This is the scent of dead skin on a linoleum floor
This is the scent of quarantine wings in a hospital
It's not so pleasant
And it's not so conventional
It sure as hell ain't normal
But we deal, we deal

The anesthetic never set in and I'm wondering where
The apathy and urgency is that I thought I phoned in
It's not so pleasant.
And it's not so conventional
It sure as hell ain't normal
But we deal, we deal

Just sit back, just sit back
Just sit back and relax
Just sit back, just sit back
Just sit back and relapse again

Can't take the kid from the fight
take the fight from the kid
Sit back, relax
Sit back, relapse again
Can't take the kid from the fight
take the fight from the kid
Just sit back, just sit back

You're a regular decorated emergency
You're a regular decorated emergency

This is the scent of dead skin on a linoleum floor
This is the scent of quarantine wings in a hospital
It's not so pleasant.
And it's not so conventional
It sure as hell ain't normal
But we deal, we deal

The anesthetic never set in and I'm wondering where
The apathy and urgency is that I thought I phoned in
It's not so pleasant.
And it's not so conventional
It sure as hell ain't normal
But we deal, we deal

Can't take the kid from the fight
take the fight from the kid
Sit back, relax
Sit back, relapse again
Can't take the kid from the fight
take the fight from the kid
Just sit back, just sit back
Sit back, sit back, relax, relapse
Sit back, sit back, bababada
You can take the kid out of the fight

You're a regular decorated emergency
The bruises and contusions will remind me what you did when you wake
You've earned a place atop the ICU's hall of fame
The camera caught you causing a commotion on the gurney again

Bad Dream
Why do I have to fly
Over every town up and down the line?
I'll die in the clouds above
And you that I defend, I do not love

I wake up, it's a bad dream
No one on my side
I was fighting
But I just feel too tired
To be fighting
Guess I'm not the fighting kind

Where will I meet my fate?
Baby I'm a man, I was born to hate
And when will I meet my end?
In a better time you could be my friend

I wake up, it's a bad dream
No one on my side
I was fighting
But I just feel too tired
To be fighting
Guess I'm not the fighting kind
Wouldn't mind it
If you were by my side
But you're long gone
Yeah you're long gone now

Where do we go?
I don't even know
My strange old face
And I'm thinking about those days
And I'm thinking about those days

I wake up, it's a bad dream
No one on my side
I was fighting
But I just feel too tired
To be fighting
Guess I'm not the fighting kind
Wouldn't mind it
If you were by my side
But you're long gone
Yeah you're long gone now


Rooftops
When our time is up
When our lives are done
Will we say we've had our fun?

Will we make a mark this time?
Will we always say we tried?

Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out.
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out.
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out.
This is all we got now
Everybody scream your heart out.

All the love I've met
I have no regrets
If it all ends now, I'm set

Will we make a mark this time?
Will we always say we tried?

Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out.
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out.
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out.
This is all we got now
Everybody scream your heart out.

[x2]
Standing on the rooftops
(Wait until the bombs drop)
This is all we got now
(Scream until your heart stops)
Never gonna regret
(Watching every sunset)
We'll listen to your heartbeat
(All the love that we found)

Scream your heart out [x3]
Scream your

Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out.
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out.
Standing on the rooftops

Take it Away
Lifes greatest questions have always been;; Who am I? Where did I come from? Why am I here? Where am I going?
You are about to see, and hear, one of the most significant messages given to us from god.
**door creaks open**
**Gun loads**

GET DOWN!
Hey!
GET DOWN!

I'm lying to myself
And this dagger's my excuse
I'm a pawn
I should have paid up
and I left an hour late
I was laid up

I must abuse myself
I'm against all that I've made up
Set in stone the sun will come
And I hate light
You know I hate light

TO! ME! it! looks(or ed)! so! PRETTY BURNING!!!

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away.
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away.

I must have caught something
In the heat of all these dances
I'm a worm with no more chances
And I've lost all doubt
In a chemical romance

I can't stop itching
at the thoughts of tarnished hope
kinda funny lonely feeling I'm not in love
You know it's not love

TO! Me! It! Looks(or ed)! So! Pretty burning!

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away.
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away.

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away.
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away.

Brothers and sisters
I'm right here with you!
Cause everyone's got one,
a story to kill me
I'm so apathetic in my resentment
Living, loving, knowing not!

Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand

Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand

Take my...life

Take my heart
Take my mind
Take my life
Take my... life!

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away.
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away.

Burn the sun,
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away.
Take my hand
Take my life
Take my life
Take my life!


The Freshmen
When I was young I knew everything
And she a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I'm guilt stricken, sobbin' with my head on the floor
Stop a Baby's Breath and a shoe full of rice, no...

I can't be held responsible
'Cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
His girl took a week's worth of valium and slept
And now he's guilt stricken sobbin' with his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really wept he says

I can't be held responsible
'Cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

We've tried to wash our hands of all of this
We never talk of our lack in relationships
And how we're guilt stricken sobbin' with our heads on the floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say

I can't be held responsible
'Cause she was touching her face
And I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmem
yay e yay e yay hey yay eya e yay

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

We were merely freshmen
We were merely freshmen
We were only freshmen


Shadow on the Sun
Once upon a time I was of the mind
To lay your burden down
And leave you where you stood
And you believed I could
You'd seen it done before
I could read your thoughts
Tell you what you saw
And never say a word
But now all that is gone
Over with and done
Never to return

I can tell you why
People die alone
I can tell you I'm
A shadow on the sun

Staring at the loss
Looking for a cause
And never really sure
Nothing but a hole
To live without a soul
And nothing to be learned

I can tell you why
People go insane
I can show you how
You could do the same
I can tell you why
The end will never come
I can tell you I'm
A shadow on the sun

Hey

Shapes of every size
Move behind my eyes
Doors inside my head
Bolted from within

Every drop of flame
Lights a candle in
Memory of the one
Who lived inside my skin

I can tell you why
People go insane
I can show you how
You could do the same
I can tell you why
The end will never come
I can tell you I'm
A shadow on the sun

Shadow on the sun (8x)
Sun (2x)

Here are the music videos for each:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdpZgJxlP1U
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=El7tSVBYmpo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FEy3gsnlpQ&feature=related
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVNAp1C8LIw&feature=related

Camisado and Shadow on the Sun don't have music videos.

See what you can do with these. I'll find something too.

...Will we always say we tried?

This sounds oddly like a recap of the weekly character discussion. Replace "this" with the name of the location the hin is in, "I" is Samurai, "We" is the guessers, and only thing missing is I have no idea what a chemical romance is. Or has this already been done. I think the hand-washing refers to the attempt to make guesses make sence, wash their hands of the random character answers, and in that instant, refers to OS and Samurai.

No idea what character this would mean, though.

mimic_king: It would have been better to just provide links to sites with the lyrics, rather than the whole lyrics verbatim...... just cuz it's so long and quite possibly irrelevant. Just sayin'.

But the lyrics might be interesting, I was following this direction before. Some quotes that scream out IMO:

"Can't take the kid from the fight; take the fight from the kid; Sit back, relax; Sit back, relapse again"
^^ Pokemon trainer: "Get back..... go Squirtle!" hehe

"I was fighting; But I just feel too tired; To be fighting; Guess I'm not the fighting kind"
^^ Pokemon running out of stamina

"When our time is up; When our lives are done; Will we say we've had our fun"
^^ PEACH! "Oh, this is fun"

Tenki's guess of mighty... power!

It is most likely... LOLIMAR!
I want to see Pokemon Trainer.
But then again...

I see some Olimar in this hint.
This was a therapeutic chain of events... Pikmin Chain, perhaps?
Guess I’m not the fighting kind... He sends Pikmin to fight for him!
...Will we always say we tried?
And I’ve lost all doubt in a chemical romance...
We tried to wash our hands of all of this...
Doors inside my head, bolted from within... Helmet? Yeah, it's a stretch.

Hmmmmmm...
Not necessarily because of this.

But
It's 6 lines from 6 different songs.


How many pikmin does lOlimar have?
5

and with Captain Olimar, that's 6!

lucas because

MANY SEMI MAJOR MOTHER 3 STORY SPOILERS!














This was a therapeutic chain of events...

in the game the way things happened was a very therapeutic chain of events(just trust me on this)

Guess I’m not the fighting kind...

he didn't really really much on physical attacks but a lot more on special attacks, never wanted to fight in the game but had to even though he would try to avoid it alot, and even in brawl hes not really the close fighting type but more like run away and then attack type


...Will we always say we tried?

im pretty sure that qoute or something along the lines of it was in the game in the same kind of tone and atmosphere as in this poem and if you know the story you will understand what im talking about right away and how it makes to much sense

And I’ve lost all doubt in a chemical romance...

llucas is a very shy boy who kinda had lost doubt alot in the game many times including something about a little romance that could of been but was kinda screwed over alot to an unfixable and completely heart braking point

We tried to wash our hands of all of this...

lucas tried to make it like all this stuff never happened in the game alot and try to fix it and stuff and make it seem like they weren't involved so everything could go back to normal and it would be like nothing happened

Doors inside my head, bolted from within...

i know its something relating to his psi powers from the game but i cant remember from exactly what point or thing hes talking aout but i know its something relating to those psi powers that were lieing dormant in his head or something like that


and thats why it must be lucas without getting a little TOO detailed into the story and what happens

Of course it's easy for him. He knows the answer from the start.

♥Hmmmm.. could it finally be Peach? It seems she actually has a chance to be her.;)

♥It seems that the hints get more vague and more vague, and people are starting to become more "intelligent" and in the end, the answer seems to become more "random" then what the guessers were "logically" thinking. <__< Does that even make sense?;)

♥Well, last time with the "Rollin" video, everyone thought it was Sonic, Luigi, and/or Zero Suit Samus. The answer was Donkey Kong, which it seems like nobody would have guessed correctly due to the way people were making these "logical" explanations which in reality were just "crude" assumptions made from "indirect" sources. <__< Again, Does that even make sense?;)

♥Hmmm... I had a point somewhere in all that gibberish. Hmmmm...... I think everything is explained here:

Two mean wait at the fork in the road.



One tells only truths, the other tells only lies.



Right now, I'm thinking Hylian is the truth teller.

lolimarangers only exists when you look at it through a microscope.

Fine, I think the character hint this week is a character who is difficult to master and has a strong following which was disappointed by how this character turned out. You can't say these people tried because they haven't discovered their character's potential, but at the same time, you can't say they didn't try because of the tremendous amount of effort it takes to learn this character. Now there are some people who main this character advising others to not do so, hence the 'handwashing." It was a health experience, but the mainers just can't fight with this character. They are limited both by the difficulty of learning this character, and by the mental blocks presented for playing this character effectively.

This week's character is Pokemon Trainer. Are you happy, OS?

EDIT: If this is right, feel free to give advice in the future. Also, even if Hylian is 100% correct, we will undoubtedly misinterpret it because of the additional song references.

lolimarangers is total win.

Conspiracy #2

Red = Samurai
Blue = Tenki

This was a therapeutic chain of events......This is the scent of dead skin on a linoleum floor
Guess I’m not the fighting kind......I was fighting but I just feel too tired to be fighting
Will we make a mark,this time......Will we always say we tried?
And I’ve lost all doubt in a chemical romance......I can't stop itching at the thoughts of tarnished hope
We tried to wash our hands of all of this......We never talk of our lack in relationships
Doors inside my head, bolted from within... ...every drop of flame lights a candle in memory of the one who lived inside my skin

Assuming the ellipses mean something, I pieced them together.

Reading these lyrics, I keep thinking
"Dead metagame"
"No hope"


and

"I fight for my friends"
Every drop of flame light a candle in memory of the one who lived inside my skin.

Fire + a person from the past = Roy

Roy = Ike

Plus isn't Ike all <3 hope thing in FE?

Peach.

This was a therapeutic chain of events..... a chain of events leading to the rescue of Peach.
Guess I’m not the fighting kind...... even though she kicked *** in melee, Peach really isn't a fighter.
Will we always say we tried? Tried what? Tried to **** Mario?
And I’ve lost all doubt in a chemical romance...... Yup, she definitely wanted to **** Mario... how many times has Peach kissed Mario?
****
We tried to wash our hands of all of this...... They try to forget it, but everytime Bowser catches here...
more sluttiness
Doors inside my head, bolted from within... Well, actually, I don't get that part.

But I'm gonna say Peach.

I say Pokemon Trainer. I would explain but it seems obvious (stamina, lack of tourney results, flames etc.)

Of course it's a trick, Dazwa presents the one true path to follow.
Oh they will need to find a path all right...


Just not yours >_>.
