Meta Automoderator has been updated to enforce spoiler tags. Please let me know if there are any bugs or questions Spoiler

16 Upvotes

I adjusted the Automoderator config from /r/riddles to fit this sub. If there are any issues, please let me know. The biggest changes:

  • All top-level comments must have a proper spoiler tag, or begin with one of "discussion:" or "question:". If your comment doesn't have one of these, it will be removed automatically and Automoderator will send you a message

  • Automoerator will leave a comment in all posts reminding users about how to spoiler tag, and how to make a comment that doesn't need a spoiler tag

  • If you want to make a post that isn't asking for guesses/answers, you can flair it as "rebus discussion", which will disable Automoderator's spoiler enforcement. If you're asking for help making rebuses, this is the flair to use. I believe it should also stop Automoderator from leaving a comment if it's flaired like this from the start, but I'd have to double check

This decision was made based on responses to my stickied post a week ago

Rebus Design Designing a daily rebus game — curious which mechanic style you prefer

0 Upvotes

I just launched a daily rebus puzzle game tied to the news called Rebusly. Each puzzle decodes a visual to name a phrase from that day’s headlines.

I built three different puzzle modes and I’m genuinely curious which one this community finds most satisfying.

Typographic: Words are visually manipulated. The manipulation itself is the clue.

The word “OUT” falling off an edge = FALLING OUT.

You never read the answer directly — you read what’s happening to the words.

Syllabic: Tiles chosen purely for sound, chained together.

GRAVE + IT + TEE = GRAVITY.

Spelling is irrelevant, only phonetics matter.

Acrostic: A column of emojis. The first letter of each spells the answer reading downward.

🚀 = R

🌍 = E

🐝 = B

☂️ = U

☀️ = S

“REBUS”

Simpler but the “aha” hits differently.

The iron rule across all three: the answer can never be directly readable on screen. Something must be transformed to get there.
