    I noticied a decrease in maturity between each gatekeeper, what lead me to believe each one symbolise a state of a man’s life.

    5= Old age ( Wise Teacher, The Only One To Have ”Ascended” Naturally)

    4= Adulthood ( Bitter, Authorative )

    3= Teenagehood ( Rebellious, Playfull)

    2= Childhood ( broken inoccence, 4 having a relation akin to a abusive parent with her)

    Following this logic , 1 (the most than probable protagonist of the Accension event) will symbolise the baby state, so probably a hybrid of 2’s angel like demeanor and 3’s psychotic manchild personality.

    Really interesting! I wonder if it can also apply to the 5 senses?

      @aleocotillo that is a good question and one I have been thinking about. Remember the puzzle? The one with the 5 Senses? All of the letters surrounding each sense. One letter around each standing out a little bit more than others. They spell out in order sense. In order from left to right, Hand, Nose, Ear, Mouth, Eye. The number in the lower left totals zero.

      Gatekeeper 5 (eye), detatched…more watching I guess? The “mouth” seems to fit Gatekeeper 4. Three seems to listen more (the ear)…follows what participants are doing more I guess?

      Oh! That’s weird! It will be ok 😉

      @dimstyle – You lose the ability to edit your posts after about 5 minutes after they’ve been posted, so you can only correct things immediately. If anything horrible pops up @mkarrett or I can edit at any point, but the sense puzzle has been up long enough that I don’t believe many consider it a spoiler.

      Personally, I don’t see a need to edit it. We’ve talked about it extensively and repeatedly since its posting.

      @thegilded Thanks. Seems that new people are joining every day and didnt want to take away from their own experience of solving the puzzles

    Certainly could fit. The metaphor could also extend to the idea that Ascension is going to be all of our rebirth. Rather than a possible 1 being a newborn, it would be us

      My face has been frozen in this state ever since they started turning @thebuz against me.

      But I keep reminding myself that everything will work out for all of us like it did for the characters in Evangeli-….oh, wait.

      haha!!

      @kasch – Cheer up. Maybe it’ll end up like one of the happier NGE scenes. Like when Shinji visits his good buddy Asuka in the hospital.

      That scene ended with a happy ending… technically

      “Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster.”

      Remember that when you break bread with the monster, @thebuz.

      We all did, @aleocotillo. And in about fifty other scenes.

      @thegilded The thought that Gatekeeper 1 could be one or all of you guys* literally gave me the shivers…

      *I say you guys rather than us, because we all know I don’t get to Ascend :-(

  • #16611

    @aleocotillo – Tension is nothing like NGE. Tension isn’t god damn incomprehensible

    @blondiecamps – Not with that attitude! Besides, only one of us is going to be left, right? Sounds like you’d be a prime candidate

    The senses are something i’ve always associated with gate keepers.
    Like:
    5= Sight (??)
    4=hearing (???)
    3= taste (?????)
    2= ????? (maybe smell )
    1=????
    I dunno?
