Okay, I'm way outta my depth here...

the second q:

A four letter word
and it's quite absurd
how adding an s to the fore,
Makes sound "er" from before
now sound more like "or"
and makes a weapon of war.

I mean W T F???

passive · 07-12-2003 11:04pm

got as far as question 5 now.
Remove six five-letter words. What's left?

H E R M A
N A N T H
C O I A S
A H G R P
T S B T C

....i'm not stuck yet. but i started doing it then realised there isn't enough letters to remove 6 5 letter words in a 5 x 5 block of letters...i'll have to rethink this

sionnach · 07-12-2003 11:15pm

passive · 07-12-2003 11:15pm

and I'm shouting it out loud to make sense of it and I'm starting to worry for my mental health

sionnach · 08-12-2003 12:00am

try yelling

tie ra nose oar ass wreck

seamus · 08-12-2003 12:03am

I don't 'get' riddles. Ever. You can give me the answer, show me where it's contained in the question, but to me, the question never ever relates to the answer.

Either my brain doesn't work that way, or you have to practice at these things. I need to be able to esablish a firm line, as in "The question asks X, so logically the answer must be Y". If that's not how it works, then it's a big pile of bull****, and not a real question at all

The same with crosswords for me. For example - the first one in puzzledonkey -

WTF has an elephant got to do with a game? I'm aware they have two main species, and ivory 'pieces', but what has 'game' got to do with anything? Understand where I'm coming from?

I only got the second one cos someone said it was 'in the question, so I randomly added s onto four letter words in the riddle till it made sense

Lafortezza · 08-12-2003 12:04am

whats the answer???? the dog is barking cos I'm talking gibberish in front of the PC,
its making no sense and I have to get this one before I go to bed or I'll be up all night!

Sangre · 08-12-2003 12:05am

Game is something you hunt, as in the answer is big game.

big Game hunter? game as in stuff to hunt, thats what I got from it anyway

Sangre · 08-12-2003 12:07am

Hint

rarrararrrar!

passive · 08-12-2003 12:08am

i said ra dammit. the sun god is RA. tie-ra-nose....

seamus · 08-12-2003 12:11am

Twouldn't have occured to me in a million years.

Not too words I'd associate

sionnach · 08-12-2003 12:21am

whoot finished the first 20 question round

onto round 2

Dredz · 08-12-2003 12:38am

hint for question 5? I assume it has to do with diagonals.

passive · 08-12-2003 12:38am

okay...question 9. help me for gods sake....

okay....i have it that each building represents a letter. i'm thinking M A W N I L. but that doesn't mean anything. i have my doubts on the M the N & the L but can't see what else

i think i may give up on this ****e soon...

passive · 08-12-2003 12:40am

with regards to 5

there are 2 words across, 2 down, 1 diagonal...and 1 i didn't get but thats not important. get the 5 (or 6 if you wanna do it right, i think the last one is down) words and remove all their letters from the original block of words. the answer is an anagram of those remaining letters)

sionnach · 08-12-2003 12:45am

the first letter in 9 is H..... and u got a few more wrong as well

PrecariousNuts · 08-12-2003 12:53am

Passive

You are right about them representing letters but you have got them very wrong. The first one is not M and N and L are wrong too

Dredz · 08-12-2003 1:03am

8 is irritating me.... how are the names connected?

Faust · 08-12-2003 1:07am

I can't even get three!??

sionnach · 08-12-2003 1:12am

im gonna call it a night at 29....bloody thing is addictive

PrecariousNuts · 08-12-2003 1:54am

Yeah i'm on 89, sad isn't it

ixoy · 08-12-2003 2:04am

Dammit! I wanted to sleep for once! And Question 2 - huh?! I mean really - huh?
... Oh wait. Got it. Very clever yeah.

steviem · 08-12-2003 2:24am

take away "c, h, i, n, e, s, e" from the sentence, and you should be left with the answer, it helped me to whip out Notepad and write the sentence and then delete letters

Meanwhile I'm stuck on number 8, the one with the family tree, can anyone give a hint/spoiler as to the method of working out the missing family members?

ixoy · 08-12-2003 12:09pm

Question 6 is making no sense. I've got

Tie Ra Nose Or Ass Wreck and am saying it fast and aloud and it STILL makes no sense

Lafortezza · 08-12-2003 1:06pm
