OK ... this is why we should start a "Hall of Fame" thread.

I got them all except #1. Edit: post and solve. That was the smoothest hypercross I've done in a long time. Nice one, fenwic!
[3] (Editted for saltiness.) Ignore the physics.

#1 and #10 both have me stumped... hopefully posting this will make the answer materialize.
Edit: OK, #10 came to me.
Edit: Thanks [13] and [16] - I got it! 66th for me tonight!

Any salt for 13?

[10] if #1 has you stumped, maybe you should put your thoughts down and post them for all the world to see. It just may help.

[9] [10] [11] #1 So what do you think happened to the tree?
[12] #13 I think a book will help you, maybe an atlas.
[14] #14 The shape is important.

#1 does not follow the theme; it's a general term for a category of user.

Cant get #7....got everything else

[23] Thanks....your clue did it for me. An arrow pointing to the top of an unlit candle would have been a better picture.
The little girl doesn't seem to fit.....yeah...it's what she is doing, but I thought she was brushing her teeth....silly me.

old movies would have you believe that large warrior women come from #13

[25] I think you meant #10 (not comment 10)

Also, so many passwords to remember. I even had one for good old #1. :)

I'm stuck on #3 and #10. Still can't get 10 even after the salt in [5]

#4 and #8 ???
so easy for you so hard for me.
nm: Post 'n-Solve. Thanks!

[30] #3 might be easier if there was only 1 E

Posted on Mon Aug 25, 2008 08:06 PM |
[31] I use #8 to get me from here to where I need to be. I'd be lost without it

#10 we used a lot of these in chemistry but they were never shaped like that

LOL Squeaked in at 99... #10 had me stumped for the longest time.

thanks [26] that was the only one I had trouble with.
Damn, 101st!

[30] perhaps if it were a video you might see it a little better

[17] no, it's a commonly used site, named for the people who would use such a site. Owned by #2. (I prefer WordPress anyway)

Smacks forehead... got it.

[30] For those still stuck on #10, [11] has some good salt.
jgf
Posted on Tue Aug 26, 2008 12:22 AM |
[29] Agreed! I really liked #4 and #5. The girl in #4 was too cute.

I agree with [2]. This belongs in a Hypercross Hall of Fame. What a great puzzle.

#1 - BlumberJack.com doesn't seem to fit...
edit: nm - found it, though I've only vaguely heard of the site

My favorite one was #10. Great puzzle.

My second hypercross! I was away yesterday, so I missed all the nice comments until now. Wow, glad so many people liked it so much. Makes me want to produce some more...
It's funny, #1, which many people suggested they knew the least is the one I probably have used the most.

Any salt on #1? All the previous salt isn't enough. I probably don't go on the internet enough to know it.
jgf
Posted on Wed Aug 27, 2008 03:39 PM |
[47] I think it's because the nature of those types of sites to stay within your own community. I have a free account on livejournal, and so the only feeds I can get are those syndicated through LJ. Similarly when I was on xanga. [38] uses WordPress. I actually keep a game design journal on #1, but it's under their b---spot domain, which is why it didn't come to me.
I hope that's enough salt. :)
