Good teaser. Different than the rest. I liked it. Kudos.
I was thinking along the lines of sin or evil...
Great teaser! I never would have thought that!
Great teaser! I never would have thought that!
nice!!!!!
I was about to give up when I noticed the last sentence. That sentence is a clue. Then I noticed that "You force heaven to be empty" could be written as U472BMT.
That was really cool PM me and we could talk. some more
It was kinda hard but it was still a really could teaser.
Difficult (I didn't get it) but a VERY good rebus. I like the *visual* nature of the answer.

I Thought it was 7characterslong! GOOOD ONE!
I feel like such a goof for not getting this b/c i did the exact same thing for my school pass, 'cept i hid it in a crappy story i wrote.
I really didnt get it
That was an awsome one I almost had it
That was a great teaser. I'm usually good at these, but I didn't get this one.
Great Job!!
Great Job!!
thanks,that WAS my password
I don't comment on many teasers, but I must say, this was excellent!!
Couldn't get this one until I looked at the explanation. Good one anyway. This old brain is sometimes not too swift.
i was soo confused until i started reading the comments for an explanation. that was good though.

this was an excellent teaser...it was also excellent the first time i did it. i got the answer both times. great teaser, but it was a repeat
Yeah, I thought this one was pretty good. It took a little thiking. Why was it reposted as today's teaser if it was already posted February 1?
it took me awile to understand this one but i got it
Good teaser. Keep em coming..
I should've known that one!
hmmmm interesting
Interesting.

Great teaser. didn't get it until I sounded out each word. Congrats
wateva. they always do that stuff and i didn't get to guess cause i didn't know it was letters and numbers like that. gosh. nobody tells me stuff these days...lol
I liked it. I saw the answer very quickly, but I dont always. Great clues, nothing misleading. Very good job.
It is odd how some people find a puzzle hard and others find it easy. And it isn't always the same people who find them hard or easy. I thought everyone would get this one immediately, just like I did. But then on others I don't see how anyone could have gotten it, but lots say they got them right away.
hmm don't really get it...
good 1 it was confuzing at furst then i got it!!!!!!!!!!!
shouldn't have brain teaser on subjects that all people dont know not everyone knows everything about that subj.
ahh sorry little slow there
neat
i ALMOST got it, thought empty meant like 0 or smthn
U472B0
i ALMOST got it, thought empty meant like 0 or smthn
U472B0
Clever! I didn't get it till I read the answer!!! I loved it! Best one yet!
wasn't this just on yeterday?
Nice! I almost got it. I thought it was UFH2BMT
Wow! And I thought yesterday's was easy!
I've only been subscribing for a short time & this is the 2nd 1 I got, so thanx smgreyuk for restoring my faith in my cleverness! Nice one.
that was a good one
Mar 24, 2005
Wow! Good one!!! Neither I or my mom could get that.
alrighty then... i woulda never got that in 1 million years!!!!!!!!!! i really didnt like it sorry!

Mar 25, 2005
Excellent job! And cute idea for a license plate!
I got it as soon as I read it twice.
NEVER EVER VOTED ON THIS
luved itttttttttttttttt
good teaser! im going 2 put this in my favorites!
COOL
good job!
The Password is cool!
A great puzzle! Too bad it's plagiarized. Plug the key phrases into your web browser to see the original.
Cite your sources!!
Cite your sources!!
norcekri - is it possible for you to actually give a good and friendly comment anywhere in any teaser?I feel that telling someone to "cite their sources" is not appropriate as a comment in a teaser.
I enjoyed this teaser - good job.

Brilliant in all, but quite easy (once you've been in chat a couple of times ).
LOL that a good one I had guessed U 4 11 2 B 0 instead of 7 for heaven I put eleven and instead of MT for empty I just put a zero
It reminds me of "Oh you cutie I envy you" OUQTINVU
I thought this was great. Don't know why people must write offensive comments for others. Must boost their own self esteem. Regardless, I love this, gonna put it on my license plate. Thanks
My cryptic crossword-trained mind got the answer:
U4SEAHN
( 'Emptied' in crossword parlance would also mean striking out the alphabets between the first and the last in HEAVEN.)
How about that?
A nice teaser, all the same.

Niiiiice! I don't get the force seven part. But over all, it's way cool.
Fun but easy
The first thing that crossed my mind was the word "sinners".
Very clever teaser!
Very clever teaser!
I tried to fit the word rain in, but obviously that was wrong. Good teaser.
Cool..
got this one rather quickly, but a good one anyway. Keep them coming.

It's true. donfrench. I think it depends on what frame of mind you are in at the very moment you read the teaser. When I saw this, I got all analytic and theological and BOY, did it take me in the wrong direction.
LOVED it. It's a FAVE!
LOVED it. It's a FAVE!
This makes absolutely no sense!
i got it i got it i loved this 1
Great job! I almost had it, but didn't get the "47", I had U4C2BMT
Does close count?? lol
Does close count?? lol
I loved it!! Soo good! Did you just think of that? That's amazing. Haha sorry I'm kind of freaking out but I thought it was soo cool!! Great job!! It's the best one I've ever read!!
WOW !!!! i liked that one ! very good . this is the first thing i'm putting on my favorites ! i've been inspired !!!!!
I really enjoyed this one, I got the 2BMT right away, but then I seen the title was "Force" so I started thinking of what the mathmatical equation for force was and that threw me way off. Great job though and keep them coming.
yay! that was cool, although i missed the 7; i thought it was C, like 4C is force, with the ce being shortened to c. yea, im an idiot sometimes. awesome teaser!!!
this one was pretty clever
This may be a "classic" off the internet but it was a lot of fun for the Braingle community. Glad you found and shared it here. I wonder how many people have actually used it for their password?
I love it! lol I'm very amused! great teaser! I got completely thrown off, I was think it might be YFH2BE (the first letters of every word except for 'to') ... but that was only 6 letters... oops! great teaser!!
I got it in less than a minute! Too easy to be that fun, but thanks anyway.
i usually get these 1s but i guess im still sleeping. it was fun tho!
That was so cool! Wow that was totally creative.
I almost got it came up with U4C2BMT - the heaven thru me!
Excellent! One of the most innovative teasers I have come across so far!
Yay I got it, first i got the empty part becos of something that happened at school and then I got the rest of it!!!! Yay wow I have never got one so quickly
stumped again
way cool!
and awesome!!!
and suite!
i mean sweet!
it was a bit hard though!
but it was fab!
Loved it!!!
Concidering that his riddle in the rebus category, it is very easy. If it was in the "trick" category, then the answer could have been "7 characters long" like someone mentioned already.
After reading my post it sounds a little mean. Sorry, it was a fun riddle. I read these in the morning when I don't want to think to hard, so it was just right.
i am really terrible at the rebus puzzles, but i love seeing how it all comes together! thanks for a good puzzle!
Great teaser. Reminds me of MRPIGS MRNPIGS OSAR AHAICMRPIGS. Same concept. I loved it.
i ♥ it it is on my favorites list and will show ne1 i can
yes! i totally got this one!
thanks for the teaser
thanks for the teaser
huh?
Oh! i get it now!! Thanks NTG98. Nice one really good!

I got it after a bit of thought, but it's definitely a cracker!
verryyy clever very very clever best one ive seen yet good job
Very easy...Got it in less than a minute...Keep up the good work!
gud one, keep it up, i did it easily...
cool thinking !
cool thinking !
THIS WAS ABOUT AS EASY AS THEY COME. I'M SURE EVERY 7th GRADER WITH A CELL PHONE WOULD GET THIS IN A SECOND.
Easy,Easy,Easy!
This was good. (and I didn't think it was easy, just fun)
I enjoyed this one (maybe because I finally got a rebus)
good but I didn't get the 'force heaven' part.
Great teaser very clever!! Definitely going on my faves!!
Loved it!
Gobydude, for-ce heaven. The "h" is next to silent. The "ce" makes an "S" sound, and "eaven" and "even" sound the same, so it'd be "four-s even"
Did that help?

Took me a minute, but I got it. A few years ago I wouldn't have gotten it, but with all the slang floating around these days, it was relatively simple. I loved it and will pass it on to the grandkids.
Good, except thats not encrypting. You could have said that he wanted it unguessable, or something like that, but your process is not encrypting
Thoroughly enjoyed it! It is on the easier, but entertaining side. Keep up the fantastic work!
this was an amazing teaser! i loved it!
Very Good!
I got this right away and it was fun! I shouldn't say "right away"--I had to think a bit longer on the 4-7 part. I think the reason some teasers are easy for some and hard for others is that we all have different experiences and backgrounds. You know more about things you are familiar with. For instance, I have a book called C-D-B! by Willam Steig that is written completely in letters and numbers. It's really cute!
So my experience helped me to know what to do.

A guy in the next town has that on his marker tag (license plate)!
Too easy, but cool!
Very interesting teaser
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
Oh man, I didn't even look at the catagory and my mind went in a totally different direction. Great puzzle!

Even though I found it really easy, I still thought it was a really neat idea. Kind of like a rebus in reverse. For someone like me, who tends to think backward anyway, that works out perfectly
Got it all but the 4 7 part but i really liked it . And I usually do really badly on the rebus But this is going in my faves.
heh heh.....tat not his password!!! u cheated.......his password is "7 characters long" u gave everyon the password an than say its wrong!!!!lol
If you have read ZDB this puzzle is easy. I like the term reverse rebus.
Well, I gave up and looked at the answer. Neat answer! What more can I say!
this is a really good teaser to my favs
That was probably Braingle's best rebus teaser. They all ways seem to se two or three words. But this one had a story behind it and wasn't the type of teaser that you can submit 50 of in ten minutes. Keep them coming!
I tried to do this the last time it was a daily and still didn't get it. Great teaser.
This was way to easy. All you have to do is read it aloud.
I'm so glad I didn't notice it was a rebus, b/c I'm usually intimidated by those! Without that distraction, as soon as I saw the first word 'You' pronounces as a letter, I was off and running, no problem, easily completed.
Cute, but waaay too easy.
Good one!
I thought it was gravity!
I got it! I'm so pleased with myself.
I lovee this
Fun but easy.
Another easy one from the past.
Got this one pretty quickly! It was fun, but relatively easy
I liked this one and got it quickly, too. I remember as a little kid (100 years ago) I saw a similar one. "Which 7 letters did the woman say when she looked in her purse and there was nothing in it?" OICURMT
Happy Holidays, everyone!
Happy Holidays, everyone!
Fun! But, easy. But still fun!
Very clever and cute! Sometimes things come easily to you and other times the easy ones just do not pop up. That does not mean you are not as smart as anyone else.. Some people just have a hard time excepting that every one is different. Bragging is just a form of making yourself feel better.
Good teaser! Very creative.
Great teaser! It was really creative, but tough! I didn't get it- thought it was YFHTBE6:
You
Force
Heaven
To
Be
Empty
6 words
You

Heaven
To

Fun teaser. I agree with everything Babe said!
Have a wonderful day, everyone!
Have a wonderful day, everyone!
Ah, clever. I wonder if people are going to start using that?
I love a good rebus! It's especially fun doing it in reverse, too.
Interesting twist - the reverse rebus. I thought it was Suber.
I thought it was GRAVITY
