Level: 9
Item: strange leaflet
Details:

This item is given to you by the Council of Loathing.

council.gif

The strange leaflet is an item quest, meaning you have to use the item in order to get the adventure. The beginning parts of the quest actually reflect a classic text-based adventure game, Zork.

As in all text-based adventures, you must type in your instructions. Do the following, in order:

  • Open Door
  • East
  • Take Sword
  • West
  • North
  • Cut Hedge
  • Pick Up Stick
  • West
  • Light Stick
  • East
  • North
  • Kill Serpent
  • Open Chest
  • Look Behind Chest
  • Look In Hole
  • South
  • South
  • East
  • Examine Fireplace
  • Examine Tinder
  • Examine Parchment
  • Light Fireplace
  • Take Boots
  • Put On Boots
  • Examine Fireplace
  • Take Trophy(if you see a trophy)
  • West
  • South
  • South
  • Continue with any direction, they all lead to the tree.
  • Climb Tree
  • Take Egg
  • Throw Egg At Roadrunner
  • Climb Down
  • Look In Leaves
  • Climb Tree
  • Throw Ruby At Petunias
  • Read scroll
  • Gnusto Cleesh
  • Climb Up
  • Cleesh Giant
  • Take Ring

(Note: There are a couple code words and they seem to be tied to an item on the fireplace, per ascension. It is our policy that the codes are not to be disclosed here, including within the comments.) 

 

Completion:

 

  • You acquire an item: Frobozz Real-Estate Company Instant House (TM)
  • You acquire an item: grue egg
  • You acquire an item: giant pinky ring
  • If you type the Gnusto Cleesh, you learn CLEESH outside of the Leaflet.
  • For more information about the Strange Leaflet quest, check out the wiki article here.

Cinnamint said:

  The note states that one of the items in the fireplace contain keywords as to what the new passcode is. Or maybe I read it wrong.

The items found in the fireplace are as follows: a carved driftwood bird, a model ship inside a bottle, a ceramic model of a small white house, a ceramic model of a small brick building, and a shiny brass bowling trophy.

I didn\'t say K-mail me for the answer.

  Sigh, like the rest, I can\'t figure out the password. For some reason, the LMAO quest won\'t let me proceed until I finish this one. Can someone mail me something to help me? I hate being stuck on quests, especially when it\'s so close. T__T

My screenname in kol is the same as this one.

FSM Worshipper said:

  Okay, this Coldfront, the ultimate spoiler site. So why isn\'t anyone outright posting the magic words and matches??
I\'ve already figured it out by trial and error, but is there some rule that we can\'t reveal it??

Also, just wondering. Which magic word would you be able to use if you see the Trophy? None of them work?

  after you finish the leaflet YOU CANNOT GO BACK TO THE HOUSE you\'ll just have to live without the bowling trophy or whatever

Shplay25 said:

  Dear asdfasdf,
Yes I have found that it is a direct reference to Ender\'s Game. A fine book and series at that I might add. Go Ender, go Bean. Bad Achilles.

icecube said:

  Ok.. let me get to the point for you ADD kids.

You have only ONE change to type in the correct \"password\" after you examine the lit-fireplace.

If you see a trophy, take it. If not type in one of the passwords that was already given...

chichiro said:

  honestly... you guys dont deserve it, and no cedric u dont deserve a thanks because if these people dont want to try and figure it out from the hints and read through the things, then they arent worth it. Obviously jick wants people to at least try and figure out the password and he would want you to respect his wishes, although i\'m unsure of exactly why.
July 01, 2006

Yunakri said:

  chichiro. lol... what the heck is that all about? Coldfront is to help people out.. and give them answers. it\'s full of spoilers. obviously you can\'t complain about people getting a password at the end of this and ignore the fact that we are all recieving A LIST OF THE ANSWERS to a strange leaflet. it doesn\'t matter

it is called a spoiler. some of us have already figured this stuff out.. other\'s are too lazy to. i normally figure out these quests etc. myself.. this one had me too frustrated so i came here... so why the hell are you complaining about a stupid password and saying that people who are helping others dont deserve the credit?

you should also be complaining about the list of answers to a strange leaflet.. because we could figure those out too... but then again you are here too arn\'t you so obviously you needed help in figuring this out too and weren\'t able to do it yourself... or else your just looking for people to btch at....

  Let\'s all try and be nice, shall we. Actually, it had been requested by the Staff of KoL that we keep all code words secret. You won\'t find them on the Wiki, either, because of that. No need to be rude to each other. Love makes the world go round, right?

  ...but unfortunately it must be used. From now on, anyone who posts the passwords will have their post deleted. No exceptions. We do not want it revealed here, and neither does the Dev team. Deal with it.

emyli said:

  For the last freakin\' time, NEW PASSWORDS ARE BEING IMPLEMENTED.

Those that you find whilst googling don\'t work because they\'re OLD. And if you want the password, I don\'t know. I prolly have no chance of getting the stat boosts because i was AND IDIOT and used the old passwords. So don\'t use the ones you find googling. If anyone knows them, k-mail me (name=same as this username) and MAYBE it\'ll work next time around. I\'ll have to get the freakin\' stat boosts next time around, alright? So don\'t be babies about it. Alright.

  My unfortunate problem with these words is that I only played a few text adventure games and I wasn\'t very good at them. I did play Zork!, but I can\'t remember the one word that kept showing up. (I was about 9 and I\'m 35 now...) If I could get an idea of where to look for the possible words, it\'d be nice.

justaregperson said:

  The code infact has to do with the old 80\'s games Zork and Adventure which both contain text adventure. I won\'t say the code (that I know of) because I\'m sure it would upset people but this isn\'t just a random word the KoL staff was very clever in making this code because it is difficult to find but not too difficult that you would never find it. All I will say is it\'s a popular word in the text adventure games, \"Zork\" and \"Adventure\" so just look hard and don\'t beg for the code because like I, you may stumble on it by accident like I did without trying to look for it.

smartyjonezz said:

  i have a weird thing, it must be a fluke.... my item was the model ship inside a bottle, and the 2nd letter of each word spells "ohno" (oh no, if you didnt understand) i am sure that either that is an old password for it, or it was wrong, because it didnt work for me.... just weird.... or maybe it was because i already entered something else, in which case i just spoiled it, but i did not enter anything before that, so its not "oh no" for the ship.... unless the game hates me.... wah!!! but ohh well, you all are stressing about 1 moxie-magicallness-strength point, maybe 2 if you are at a lowlvl for them... but point is, everyone is making a big deal about how they dont know what the word is, ohh no!!! oh my god, shut up, it doesnt make much of a difference smilies/cry.gif
