    OK, who's going to be the first to say 'huh' on the puzzle?

  2. FileSailboatloserkid7182 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:04 PM

    ME ME! HUH!?

  3. FilePancakeshatemachine on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:04 PM

  4. Avatar_profileAceGoggles on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:05 PM

    got all but #10

  5. FileSailboatyelowflower on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:05 PM

    I have the theme, even some of the answers, but it's not something I'm really good at, face/group recognition sigh

  6. Try_4Sailboatsnork on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:08 PM

    I'm clueless about almost all of these. Guess I'll wait for another day.

  7. FileEggGamesX4 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:10 PM

    any help on #8?

  8. FileSailboatyelowflower on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:11 PM

    I have 1, 4, 5, 12 & 15, can help with those

  9. Cuicocha2Sailboathokie98 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:12 PM

    need salt on #7... I think I have the others... no clue who that guy is tho

  10. FileAcetinal89 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:14 PM

    I too am stuck on 7 and 8

  11. VaderhardtimesEgggchild469 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:14 PM

    I have all of them except #8 and #15 (can't figure out what another word)

  12. Sammyhotslut1Radishby3times1minus1 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:14 PM

    got everything but 8, any salt?

    [4] not sure who that guy is but think along the lines of pearls pumpkin FOOd

  13. Cuicocha2Sailboathokie98 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:15 PM

    [7] it's not to much what kind, but when

  14. EdgewoodSailboatsplat169 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:15 PM

    2 and 10 have me stumped

  15. Copy_of_lucky__chance__chelsieAppleHellRzr on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:15 PM

    I think I figured out what the theme is.. Can someone TG me and let me know if im on the right track ?

  16. FileSailboatyelowflower on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:15 PM

    15 is often said followed by the word 'era'

  17. FileDuckiedavey3 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:17 PM

    Thought this would be easy after solving the cryptopix, but I have no clue on most of these so I'll pass tonight.

  18. Avatar_12-08Pancakesthreehojos on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:17 PM

    7 and 8 have both myself and my DJ husband stumped!

  19. EdgewoodSailboatsplat169 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:18 PM

    I think 7 is a type of techno music

  20. Sammyhotslut1Radishby3times1minus1 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:19 PM

    got them all, but it's not taking something.
    can i TG someone to see which answer i have wrong?
    i think it's 2.

  21. FileEggplantunilab98 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:20 PM

    I would like to say boo on 8

  22. AvaCarrotdavego on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:20 PM

    i have no clue on #2

  23. AvatarDuckiesteph_frolin on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:20 PM

    #8 doesn't fit the theme really and #2 is just vague...any help there?

  24. Donimo_pirate_beatlesEggDonimo on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:20 PM

    I've found about a dozen things that could fit for 8 but don't fit the grid. Some of the representatives in this puzzle seem a bit odd to me.

  25. FileOnionmetafor on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:21 PM

    need 2, 7, 10

  26. FileAcetinal89 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:22 PM

    I think I now have all but 8 -- I can help with 2 - TG me

  27. FileSailboatloserkid7182 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:22 PM

    any help on 2 or 14?

  28. FileEggplantunilab98 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:22 PM

    [23] Hard to give salt on that one without being too salty. Umm..I can try. "get up and ____"

  29. FractalEggdduensing on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:23 PM

    I'm not into "face" puzzles.....big pass on this one.

  30. FileEggplantunilab98 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:24 PM

    Like said before 8 is not really a genre. Its more of an era.

  31. AvatarDuckiesteph_frolin on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:24 PM

    OK got #2 from a wiki search on types of music. Awesome theme, poor execution. I cry boo on #8 and especially #2...I even tried a version of yak calling, didn;t fit.

  32. Sammyhotslut1Radishby3times1minus1 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:25 PM

    [26] tg sent

  33. FileOnionmetafor on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:25 PM

    #14 is lasting, archetype, etc.

  34. FileEggplantunilab98 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:25 PM

    [31] Rock on. No pun intended. 8 pissed me off. I didn't even enter it at first cause it didn't fit the theme.

  35. FileSailboatloserkid7182 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:26 PM

    ok i thought i have them all now, but still not taking. . . .

  36. FileOnionmetafor on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:28 PM

    any help on 7 and 10 please?

  37. Sammyhotslut1Radishby3times1minus1 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:30 PM

    [36] watching those things spin can get quite hypnotic

  38. VaderhardtimesEgggchild469 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:31 PM

    #10 think more along the lines of 90's music

  39. AvatarDuckiesteph_frolin on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:32 PM

    [36] For 7, snap yourself out of it and look again, perhaps at a subset of what the obvious is. For 10, I just went on is style of clothing since Red Hot Chili Peppers were too obvious a placement there. Or Pearl Jam or...

  40. Img_0189Egggst on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:40 PM

    looking for 2 & 8...

    ready to trade...

  41. FilePepperpepperhead on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:38 PM

    six? six? old fart here trying to get 6 anyone lend some salt please

  42. Sammyhotslut1Radishby3times1minus1 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:40 PM

    [41] clean yourself up, old fart

  43. FilePepperpepperhead on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:42 PM

    thanks [42] but I did not say I was a stinky old man :^)

  44. FileAcetinal89 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:42 PM

    sheesh I finally got it to take.

  45. AvaCarrotdavego on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:43 PM

    [40] tg sent

  46. Current.deal.avOnionmonocle on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:46 PM

    I know who is in #8... love them in fact... but I can't think of any thing that fits the 1 cross letter I have. Is it really that far off as others are booing it? Being a huge fan, am I gonna be pissed to see what the answer is? :) any more salt on that one?

  47. AvaCarrotdavego on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:49 PM

    for #8 I referred to [13] but my answers still aren't going

  48. FileClockmust67 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:49 PM

    Got all but 8 and 10

  49. FilePepperpepperhead on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:52 PM

    8 still has me mystified as well

  50. Avatar_profileAppletduebber on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:53 PM

    [48] maybe try a "different" answer. you know, a "back-up" answer. another possibility perhaps. another option.

  51. FileClockmust67 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:53 PM

    Got it Boo on 10 how about some heavy salt on 8

  52. FileClockmust67 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:54 PM

    8 is worse than 10 try decades

  53. Current.deal.avOnionmonocle on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:58 PM

    [47] ugh! you're joking right? I'd be pissed if I cared enough and if the whole topic wasn't a bit subjective anyway... but that answer is so wrong when there are several others that they were pioneers in.

    however, besides #8, this puzzle rocked! :)

  54. Avatar_profileAppletduebber on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:58 PM

    [52] perfect thank you

  55. Avatar_profileAppletduebber on Tue Apr 15, 2008 07:58 PM

    [53] #8 is the worst answer ever in a hypercross

  56. FilePepperpepperhead on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:00 PM

    got eight not the best thing to put in this puzzle. a era or time frame helped me figure it out now if I can only figgure out what I did wrong

  57. FileGarlicHope2002 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:00 PM

    Not sure I agree with all of these, but whatever fits.

  58. FilePepperslog on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:00 PM

    Am I the only one stuck on #9?

  59. FilePancakesepaz on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:05 PM

    [58] are you feelin' lucky? well are ya?

  60. FilePepperslog on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:07 PM

    [59] Thanks

  61. FilePepperpepperhead on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:14 PM

    can I tg someone my list to check it out??

  62. Avatar_profileAppletduebber on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:17 PM

    [61] tg away

  63. Phi3CornPhilana on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:23 PM

    Is anyone else seeing an "Ads by Google" link in some of the comments? I see it in comments 10, 20, and 30.

    Edit: And they went away when I posted this comment. Odd!

    Second edit: And then they reappeared when I edited the comment.

  64. FilePepperhairy_lime on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:24 PM

    Solved in 84 minutes! That was easy ...

  65. Avatar_profileWatermelondaedae on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:25 PM

    You solved this puzzle in 0 seconds and were the 97th Tanga member to solve it. You earned 24 points for solving this.

    Not so bad once I got the theme... which wasn't at all obvious until I started reading through the comments.

  66. Copy_of_lucky__chance__chelsieAppleHellRzr on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:27 PM

    stuck on 3, 7, 9... need some salt or something

  67. FilePepperpepperhead on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:27 PM

    thanks [62]

  68. FilePepperpepperhead on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:31 PM

    [66] well 3 is the godfather of ____ 7 is a type of techno wikipedia always helps 9 [59] is great salt

  69. FilePepperpepperhead on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:33 PM

    Philana I am not getting ads, but I cannot hit my return button with out going back to the puzzle, ..... so my help above looked like crap, I was getting the deal of the day covering my comments

  70. Phi3CornPhilana on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:36 PM

    [69] The deal of the day often covers comments for me too. It usually goes away when I point to it, but not always.

  71. Denver_cheerPeachBRONCOGAL21 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:39 PM

    my first top 100...whoo hoo!!

  72. Avatar_profilePeachStrangerFlower on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:40 PM

    stuck on #2 as well...

  73. OctopusPeppercomishcraig on Tue Apr 15, 2008 08:49 PM

    Yikes, everyone is right about #8

  74. Avatar_profileApplebrakingeleven on Tue Apr 15, 2008 09:20 PM

    Damn, I wish I was here on time... I got it in like a minute and a half! At least this one put me over 1000 points :)

  75. FileGarlicmartinp13 on Tue Apr 15, 2008 09:45 PM

    Good grief... too much identification and too much guessing on the answer that goes with each. Pass.

  76. FileApplekirklimon on Tue Apr 15, 2008 10:25 PM

    Wish I had been here at 10... Mr. Clinton clued me in to the theme immediately. Took a bit to get 8 and 10 but not too long. I think this theme deserves another chance.

  77. Phi3CornPhilana on Wed Apr 16, 2008 05:59 AM

    [76] If so, please not as yet another picture identification exercise. I prefer hypercrosses that are actual puzzles.

  78. Avatar_profileBananaEndoannie on Wed Apr 16, 2008 06:53 AM

    any salt on 14....I've tried wiki for genres that end with rock...but nothing fits

  79. Bunny91Garlicheatherlouwho on Wed Apr 16, 2008 07:35 AM

    [78] Try another,classier, word for "old".

  80. Avatar_profileRocketducko on Wed Apr 16, 2008 12:19 PM

    #8 gave me the hardest TTime.

  81. FilePancakesCWarrior on Wed Apr 16, 2008 06:10 PM

    I don't mind the occasional "face search" but don't want too many of them.

    Here's where I think this one went wrong: the "face search" part doesn't yield answers, but requires another step beyond that. If you're going to make me play searchy-poo, don't make me play guessy-poo as well. I think the extra step is a bit too subjective as well.

    Nice idea, but not my cup of tea. Thanks anyway.

  82. FileAppleannberg on Thu Apr 17, 2008 12:28 PM

    Wow - 7 almost put me into a deep, fog like state! ;)
