A puzzle, for Easter. If you don't have one, I suggest you get a piece of paper to do this one. You'll have to write some numbers down. I'll give a minute

[And as if it's the easiest thing in the world:]

31131211131221, 13211311123113112211, 11131221133112132113212221.

[izlegal]

Well done, sir.

[terrorring]

Naturally.

[izlegal]

No particular feeling of success, I take?

[bluecapboy]

[Poor scrap of paper, what did it do to deserve that many eraser marks?]

31131211121221, 13211311123112112211, 11131221133112132112212221...?

[izlegal]

Perfect: I hope that was tough enough for you, Luke.

[bluecapboy]

I'll admit, it was pretty tough!

[izlegal]

Once you've got the pattern though, it's a breeze.

[After a while (and a sheet of paper covered in crossed-out strings of numbers and such).]

31131211121221, 13211311123112112211, 11131221133112132112212221?

[izlegal]

Spot on, sir.

[xerxesalchemist]

[You have no idea how pleased he is about this.]

[artwithknives]

[While everyone is scoring perfects...]

Uh...33211322?

[izlegal]

[It d-does take a while to get, to say the least...]

Not quite. Try reviewing each number. You know how number patterns normally work, right?

[artwithknives]

T-True but I can't say math is one of my better subjects.

[izlegal]

It hasn't got a thing to do with math. The most you need to be able to do is count to three.

[stay_cool_bro]

Whaaaat? That's a lot of big numbers...

[izlegal]

Its not so hard once you realize the pattern and the number size have next to no relation.

[stay_cool_bro]

Was that the hint? [he's trying to think]

[izlegal]

Actually, no it isn't. I supposed I have two hints to offer, in that case....
