It depends if we're talking about the whole game or just Unfooruman's fortress.

Scan shows that it's just a normal door. And the teleporting hatch room theme from Mega Man 4 is the current music that's playing.

You cautiously enter the door. Obviuosly, you expect that beyond this door is the mighty wizard Unfooruman, but since you didn't pay attention to the map SC 2.0 printed for you, your next destination is the dreaded TELEPROTING HATCHES =D <--- Intentional Typo.

There four teleporters here, each with a differently colored light on it. The lights are Blue, Green, Red, and Yellow, in that order from left to right. "Beyond this point somewhere is Unfooruman's Lair...I can smell it," says Fooruman. Indeed, it does smell like past-expiration-date spell components, but that could be the fact that no one has bathed in days.

Scan the teleporters.
Ask Fooruman what the room and the teleporters taste of.

My guess is BLUE.

Unfooruman's cloak is a deep blue, am I right? It's like Fooruman's purple robe, but a darker and opposite shade of it...which would be blue. So it'd make sense to associate Unfooruman with blue.

Red could possibly be some kind of hell and firey brimstone target, so we can't really risk it.
Green may be back out to the island, where we would have to return back to the citidel all over again so we can't risk that. Yellow, I'm thinking electircal. Though blue could be the freezer, so we can't be completely sure.

But I like ice, Ice is my natural element, so I'm going with BLUE.

Forgot some stuff. D=

Inventory:
-Pandora's Goggles
-Black Armor
-Katana
-Ninja Pants
-Druid's Robe
-Wizard's Hat
-Wizard's Robe
-Wizard's Sux Staff
-Yellow Contact Lens x1
-Whip of Beating +9
-Tunic

Fooruman's Spells:
-Melt Screwdriver
-Melt Rubber
-Disable Paper Spring
-Invert Lens Color
-Sulfur Ward
-Irish Ward
-Damage Wooden Surface
-Megawarp

Shuri's Spells:
-Haste: Makes you move faster.
-Bless: Unknown effect. Ask Rad =P

Leetzan's Spells:
-Summon Enchantresphere: A creature with usful spells.
-Summon Mythslayer: A warrior who is adept in slaying mythical creatures.
-Summon Soap: A deadlyful cleaning projectile.
-Summon Rusty Iron Bat: Nigh-useless piece of sports equipment.
-Summon Water Elemental: A creature made entirely out of water.

BoggyB: You already know how teleporters work, and there is no additional data to be found here.

Onto the teleporter you and your party step, all too familiar with its warping properties. A few seconds later, your bodies are demolecularized(sp?) and reassembled in a new location. Oddly enough, you reappeared right next to the door you just came in from. Strange. Nothing else in this room has changed, except the blue teleporter is no longer inactive. "These teleporters taste AWFUL," complains Fooruman. "I demand to speak with the chef made of iron!!"

I say we should try the yellow one next. Red's either generally really bad, or really good in games like this, and I never trust the green teleporters... -_- So I say yellow.

Why don't you trust the green ones? Every choice is just as likely to happen as every other choice.

I guess choosing the wrong teleporter won't kill you or anything, and even if it did, the game was saved recently.
What I believe is that we actually have to use them in a certain order... I'd think about WHICH order now, but I've gotta get ready for school. ^^;

Don't give them any hints or tell them when they've figured it out, Lem.

'Cause I've had experiences with green teleporters in the past, Lem. Green's never been my lucky colour. Then again, neither has yellow...

But I still say we should take the yellow one next.

Ask Fooruman about his Megawarp spell.

Edit: also, this wouldn't happen to have anything to do with telecommunication protocols, would it?

Actually, I think it's a bit more subtle than that (now I've thought about it for a little bit, and done some more Google searches). I think the correct combination is Red, Green, Yellow, Blue (from teletext).

So, I'm guessing that after we've tried all teleporters it'll reset, and then we should try RGYB (unless someone comes up with a different idea).

Rad: I'm not. At least, I don't think I am...^^;;
Cooba: I can neither confirm or deny that. >D

You stick your hand over the red teleporter, but nothing seems to happen.
"What can you tell us about Megawarp?" you ask Fooruman. He turns to you and says, "I can tell you many things about this mighty spell," he begins in his cryptic wizard's voice. "But there are things that not even I know about Megawarp!" he says, throwing his hands up into the air. "The concept of relocating molecules is as old as the universe itself. There are an infinite number of ways to go about it, and this is but one of them."
"Unlike your furry green friend's 'Town Pipe,' this must be executed by inputing the X, Y, and Z of the coordinates you wish to travel. But as we have done in the past, misuse of this spell can be deadly, as you must- Please insert 25 cents for the next five posts."

...something tells me this puzzle has been done before in a game.

*closes his eyes, thinking* Paper Mario...

Yes! That's it! Blue Red Green Yellow. I believe that was the combonation required.

Go: Red Teleporter
Go: Green Teleporter
Go: Yellow Teleporter

You are lacking quarters, or any sort of currency for that matter. D=
You have no idea what Unfooruman looks like, and those movies are OLD.

Argh, too many commands. XP For Ekard's sake, you enter the yellow teleporter and reappear near the entrance to the teleporter room. This time, the yellow teleporter is inactive. Red and green are left.

Xion tries to uberhack the game, but the Apocolypse(sp?) Tater comes out of the screen and bites Xion's head off! D= OMGNOHAXORINGPLZTHNX

You enter the red teleporter and reappear in the teleporter room, with the red teleporter disabled. The only one active is green. "Wait...don't you think this is too easy?" asks Leetzan.

"Absolutely not," you reply. Just think, you're that much closer to Unfooruman! Entering the green teleporter, you feel confident that you have led the party to victory...only to find that you're back in the teleporter room. All the teleporters are active again. "You were saying?" Leetzan says in a sarcastic tone. Care to try again?

Go: Green, red, blue, yellow.

... And there are only 16 possible combonations, with 4 teleporters. This should be easy.

Teletext!

PS: Actually, I think you'll find that there are 4! combinations, i.e. 24. With 23 remaining (since we tried one).

Boggy and Xion are incorrect.

The magical powers of the teleporters send you zooming at around a thousand or so miles an hour, until it feels like you were a plant that had a massive growth spurt and had just poked your head out of the ground. When you finally feel solid ground underneath your feet, you take a look around. You seem to be standing on a balcony on the outside of the tower, where all the storms are brewing. Thankfully, the storm cloud that you saw hasn't changed much since you last were outside, so either Unfoo is getting lazy or he's getting a ham sandwich from Upper Placespot. There is a door here, as well as a stairway that leads around the upper part of the tower. "That looks kind of unsafe," says Leetzan, seeing you eyeballing the bridge. "Fooruman, are- Oh no."
"'Oh no' what?" you ask.
"...Fooruman's GONE."

Indeed, the mighty Sux Mage has been unaccounted for, taking all of his magic and inventory with him! OH NOSE!!!
