Dec 07, 2007 Hypercross Puzzle

Got it! Are there no bonus points for first to solve the hypercross puzzles?

Edit: Nevermind... I see it shows up in my account w/ extra points.

Easy one... great theme too!

3rd clue was hilarious

any salt for 2 or 3 down? i'm blanking

just got 2 down

arrgh, I got most of them, but I can't get the first two or six. Probably because I've never participated in any of these.

got the first

got six... a little research helps.

[8] Working in Firefox 3 (beta)

Working better than it has been!

The clue for the second one across had me giggling. And, the interface totally worked tonight! Yay!

[8] Yes, thank you!

Drawing a blank on the dollar sign

[13] it doesn't cost anything

[14] Thank you, I must have lost some.

Not bad.

The one with KG's pal would have been neater if it was just the image of him, inverted.

One clue doesn't quite work.

Worked fine for me using Firefox 2.0.0.11 (Mac).

the shovels have me stumped

[18], they're small.

Got it!

any help with the flag and red one?

[18] They aren't shovels

[18] What's another name for small shovel?

yeah....this was actually a fun one for me

[21] I got it... a "fun" puzzle with great clues. Something other puzzles seem to miss out on.

I am also suck on the shovel one....why can't I get it!!??

Edit: DOH!! it finally hit me!

Does anybody know who's backside the third clue shows a picture of? It is hilarious.

Glad to provide some enjoyment :)
Please forgive the poor pic quality in some clues - this was my first hyper effort!

[27] I agree. When I figured out that picture, I just about fell out of my chair.

hmmm always thought the "1" went with red and yellow...

what is the first picture??
(edit: oh. ::bangs head on table::)

I just need help with the flag one.

What, people can't figure out what to call the shovels? Just call a shovel a shovel.

I really liked this one. And finally, the interface is working right! WooHoo!

[8] Thanks for asking--Hypercross worked without a hitch this time.

It'd be nice if it accurately displayed how many points you earn. Currently it says you've earned 20 points, even if you solve it early (and earn extra points) or solve it late (and earn only a couple points).

I understand that might be a lot of trouble to program in. Functionally, though, Hypercross worked great for me.

Yay! The interface is fixed! Thank you!!!!

good puzzle. very nice theme, good clues. Espescially liked the one with the tin can.

any help with the one with the mouse

I really enjoyed this puzzle and I'm not really a puzzle person.

[37] It's not a mouse.

I've got everything (as far as I can tell) except the first clue (bottom left across). That picture is so fuzzy I'm not sure what it is. Any help?

[39] you might find that instrument in a fireplace.

I realize that it isn't a mouse...but just can't put it together.

Edit* nevermind...I figured it out...had never heard of this one.

[40] Ah, now I get it! Thanks!

The one you hadn't heard of was a favorite of James Bond.

The most fun puzzle I've ever done. Great job!
