Aye, you were on the wrong lines.
What my new name means, with the hint being NSFY.
If nobody can guess it within 24 hours, I'll add another hint.

None correct so far, pretty funny guesses though!
Hint is still NSFY ;) I will release another hint if not guessed within 24 hours of the time that I released the contest!

Still none correct! I do wonder if anyone's getting the hint about NSFY, or if they're just trying to stumble upon the correct mixture of words by pure chance. xD
Is it Place order,pay for order ,find your way to the side ?Or some thing like that? I can't remember how you were supposed to order .

We know what your asking, however, most of us do not know what NSFY stands for, hence the "hint" is nothing to most of us.
QBOddBird
July 29 2007 11:34 PM EDT
Perhaps you don't have to know what NSFY stands for.
No more hints from PPF for now! =X
I googled it means "No soup for you". You know the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld ? Well probably .

Brain dump for some things I know about NSFY:
-- Talks about Scrapple a lot (or at least used to).
-- Has often wanted the CB title of "Ombudsman", including a rainbow-colored, flashing moniker label for his user name.
-- Giggles uncontrollably when thinking of goats that easily tip over.
-- Cannot stay away from CB, no matter how he may try.
Still have no idea what "PPF" would mean, however...

According to WikiPedia:
An ombudsman (English plural: ombudsmans or ombudsmen) is an official, usually (but not always) appointed by the government or by parliament, who is charged with representing the interests of the public by investigating and addressing complaints reported by individual citizens.
So, while the word may have Swedish origins, it is also a generic word as stated above. If you search for "ombudsmen" in forum archives, I can virtually assure you that most threads dealing with the concept involve NSFY. I can also assure you that it is always 100% fun reading. *smile*

February was a good month. *smiles*
Your welcome to it man but were is the obvious hint ??Party past February ?
QBRanger
August 1 2007 4:59 PM EDT
Well it seems that the F will be February but the PP is the part that, to me, is not that obvious given NSFY typically stands for No Soup For You.
Perhaps the CB community as a whole is just very stupid.

August 1 2007 6:09 PM EDT
maybe there being over 5,000 combinations, its a little too tough
I vote for stupid hmmm p words for stupid !
partly paralyzed ferret ?
OK here's my thought in Feb. you had a exchange with NSFY in the threads that caused you to change your name. I looked but got tired of skimming some one else ?
Lady Die
August 1 2007 9:35 PM EDT
Got tired of skimming here too.. I give up.
Punxsutawney Phil's February?
Pennsylvania's Punxsutawney Fill?
If it's the latter, there's more wrong with you than has previously been suspected. :P

Mem
August 2 2007 12:45 AM EDT
I'm a little perturbed as to how that was supposed to be obvious, OB. I don't feel the slightest bit dumb for having not "figured" it out, and neither should the rest of the CB community! We're not dumb after all...
QBOddBird
August 2 2007 1:05 AM EDT
I never said anyone should feel dumb, and I apologize if anyone feels slighted for having not figured it out. However, I felt the clues provided were more than abundant enough at that point to easily find from whence the name came (and as the answer came less than 24 hours later, I feel this was likely the case).
That doesn't make anyone dumber for not having figured it out, just means they were headed in the wrong direction. Each clue was intended to push someone off a different track and onto another.
1. NSFY was to direct you to NSFY's account.
2. Not having to know what NSFY meant was to direct people away from deciphering the 'NSFY' acronym.
3. I then clarified further that it was NSFY, the person, and stated the clan he owned.
4. More subtle hint: NSFY's comments are always 100% fun reading.
5. User image with a Ferret in it.
6. The month within which the post was made. NSFY responds to very few threads, so I figured at this point I would have to reduce the prize, as it made it much a much quicker solve.
Hopefully that explained it to you a bit better, Mem, and again, sorry that you felt perturbed about not finding the solution.
