Well,
All of the math is not even necessary to get the answer. All anyone had to do was find a 6 letter synonym of nincompoop. There are four paths to solve the puzzle.
If you are looking for CCC that are hard to solve check out Fifteensquared – Never knowingly undersolved.. Some of the most difficult ones contain intentional typos and red herrings.

I think most of us were looking for something meaning nincompoops.

I'm guessing it was BOB as your middle-name could possibly be Robert and it's entirely possible that you're known by that in real life.
Can you confirm whether it was Bob in Louisiana, Bob in Serbia or Bob in South Africa, though, please? I know it doesn't alter the actual answer but I'm just kind of curious ...

Yeah,
That's why the thread was labled the "Developers Edition".

Yeah I know this is predominantly MS. But I'm moving all of my development platforms to VMware workstation - part of that is a High Sierra MAC os vm.
So the other day I was sitting there and decided to upgrade to VMware 14.1.6 and it broke my MAC vm - perpetual reboot cycle, logs useless. Good thing I didn't upgrade to my Workstation 15 license.... all licensed and paid for code, no cracks here.
If you've got any scars or other sage advice, I'm all ears - I need that mac os back. And I'm paying hard cash - ammo to JSOP or Meguier's for your dash on that beast, beer to Maunder, gin, hell, I don't care, etc. You get the picture.
Send me an email...
Here's the deal: vmware's logging is VERBOSE very meaningful to someone with the vm source code in front of him - maybe. 4k lines of log, and I don't see what Workstation is unhappy about...
I have posts out to vmware community forums and "insanelymac" or something like it. I'm betting on CP's crazies - come on, I know you are out there. This is likely some vmware bs, but I need that VM back.

Will be hard to find help on running Mac VM on Workstation (Windows) since it violates the Mac EULA (says for Mac hardware only).

I knew someone would chime in I have a mac mini sitting on my desk that collects dust. I justify my pirate ways that I don't' turn both on at the same time. Maybe not the letter of the law....
fwiw, I'd say Apple's EULA is widely disregarded, and I'm probably understating it.

The most amusing thing about this thread is that it passed moderation. You are essentially asking for support for your pirated versions of both Apple High Sierra MAC and your hacked version of VMWare/Dell workstation.
Your VMWare is broken because in order to make it run High Sierra some of the binaries in your VMWare folder had to be patched. If you are wondering why I know this... it's because I analyzed the 'hack' installer a few years ago checking for malware. I did not find any malware but it does patch some of the binaries in the VMWare installation folder.

based on the last few years of dumb-ass decisions coming from them, I'd suggest they have a high probability of wiping us all out accidentally with some sort of malignant AI release
Seriously though, have you ever read some of the responses from Microsoft people on answers.microsoft.com? I'm convinced the server has an auto reply feature for suggesting some of the dumbest stuff.

If they can't get the real thing, they might as well create it artificially.
