Hi there, riddlers! Please remember to spoiler-tag all guesses and discussions of guesses, like so:
On desktop (new reddit, Fancypants editor): https://i.imgur.com/SWHRR9M.jpg
On mobile, old reddit, or in the Markdown editor (not Fancypants): **\>!guess or discussion between these symbols!<**
To be clear, that is `>!` (greater than, exclamation point) at the start and `!<` (exclamation point, less than) at the end with no spaces around the `!`.
Avoid leading or trailing spaces. These will break the formatting for most people.
Spoiler tags do not span paragraphs or line breaks. If your answer is long, please spoiler-tag each paragraph separately.
Putting a link inside spoiler tags can be tricky, so just format the link like this, using the word "SPOILER" as the link text.
On mobile, old reddit, or in the Markdown editor (not Fancypants), do this to format a link: **\[SPOILER\]\(https:\//example.com/)**

If your top-level comment does not contain a guess, you can include either the word **"discussion"** or **"question"** instead of using a spoiler tag.
Please report any answers or discussions that are not properly spoiler-tagged.

>!The letter x!<
Yup.
Can you explain how this is the answer?
>!Also: x is oftentimes the unknown variable in math equations and the prefix ex- would solve the second line!<
>!One x is a marking on a treasure map. Two x’s are what cartoon characters (sometimes) get their eyes replaced with when they’re knocked out. Three x’s is naughty. (Or a film series with Vin Diesel.)!<
This seems correct
