-6

 

-7

Hint: try to find the simple arithmetic equation hiding behind the final result!

 

3543

Got to say, I don't understand what Katia is doing :S

 

3544

Not enough information at this juncture. All I can induce at this point is that the last digit is being subtracted.

 

I mean... the obvious answer would be 3535-x = final number
But... this seems oddly arbitrary so idk

The thing is, I'm pretty sure that for a finite series like that, there are literally infinite equations you could use to represent them. My mind is brought back to this meme: https://www.funnywebsite.com/funny-website/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/doge-math.jpg

Well, whatever, -10

 

As Katia gives more and more information, the infinite possibilities begin to diminish - thereby giving us a chance to stumble upon the correct pattern.

We just gotta be more like Sherlock and this pill...

 

This thread in short:

3547

 

I've always found it very difficult to divulge my way of thinking without being obvious and direct.
So here's another hint: (don't forget, the last one mentioned that a simple arithmetic operation was being used)
Hint #2- the equation uses only digits found in the original number.

Maybe I'll just keep dropping hints :3
Anyhow, 2147483647

JK, -13

(the current number in itself is in the blue section of the popular vote pie chart.

 

I can't wait to see the change in Katia's formula once we reach the 50s. Meanwhile, something just became available...

 

3535 - (number posted) seems to be the formula, still though. Until Katia posts something contradictory to that formula, that's what I'm going to assume it is.

3550

 

-16
You're very close!
But, it only uses each digit once. (hint #3? This is probably the last)

 

Got it! If the post number is ABCD, then it's (10A+B) - (10C+D). (In other words, the first two digits of the post number makes the first two-digit number, and the last two digits of the post number make up a second two-digit number, and the difference between the two is calculated).

Answer computed!

 

3553 is a palindrome

 

Nice! Your equation made it look more complicated than it was in my mind, but it's a lot clearer that way. Anyway, this one would have been -19, but that's become boring now that we've cracked the "code".


Looks like a female with horns.

 

And what in heck does that have to do with autoshop?

 

I could have done a Lego post, but I saw this and thought, "Katia would appreciate this one a lot more."

 

...and here's the Lego post...

 

Not a plane, but what in the heck did I stumble upon??

(Bottom right)

Also, a possibility of more recyclables. Up to @Annolis to decide whether to torture himself or not.

 

Speaking of servers, Kimberly, how come you never help out this thread that you started?
