Air???????

[Red Iron Crown]

A frequency?

[EdFred]

Second guess, the letter e.

[cantab]

second guess, the letter e.

dingdingding!

[EdFred]

It rises it falls

But not asymptotic

Giving it movement

Can be quite hypnotic

[Starwhip]

A pendulum or Newton's cradle, I believe.

[EdFred]

Sorry, neither of those.

[Starwhip]

Is it one of those bird thingies?

I can't link any images, they are all the broken ones. (I.E. the SUUUUUPER long URLz)

[EdFred]

No, it is not a bird drinker.

[Starwhip]

This is just for fun. If this is the answer, I swear I will facedesk so hard I will break the table.

The Answer is HYPE!

It rises it falls --- With updates and releases

But not asymptotic --- doesn't cut, smooth wavelike motion

Giving it movement --- Fuel, HypeCoal, Devnotes, whatever

Can be quite hypnotic --- Definitely hype

I'm gonna go with a sine wave.

[Starwhip]

I'm gonna go with a sine wave.

The "Giving... Wait. Nevermind.

Dammit, Vexx.

[Sun]

So he got it right? [sarcasm] Yay! [/sarcasm] now we'll be solving his riddle for 3 years...

[vexx32]

Dunno yet. Waiting on EdFred to confirm. I'm reasonably confident, though.

[EdFred]

Sine wave is exactly correct.

GMT-5 here, so I've been asleep.)

[Starwhip]

Riddle, Vexx? Or are you letting someone else do it?

[vexx32]

Someone else better do it. I have to prepare for uni work again. :/

[cantab]

Well, here's a quick filler one

Coming close yet kind of far

Boiling up but kind of cold

Not on a house nor railway lines

No water source or steel entwined

Seven watch from land and sky

But even now they wave goodbye

[Sun]

Rockets???

[Starwhip]

Whew. That's a tough one.

The Pleiades? (Wow, I spelled that right the first time)

Mmph.

Coming close yet kind of far -- Illusion of distance

Boiling up but kind of cold -- ???? Bubbling? I don't know.

Not on a house nor railway lines -- Pretty much exactly that

No water source or steel entwined -- Same here

Seven watch from land and sky -- Seven of them on the ground and seven in the sky

But even now they wave goodbye -- They are dying/disappearing/going away.

Both wrong

[Sun]

The oceans? The oceans in 200 years?

[vexx32]

The moons of Jupiter?

[Starwhip]

The continents?

(I'm shot today... Too much work)

The moons of Jupiter?

There are only 4 main moons, I think.

[cantab]

None of those.
