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.
[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...
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] 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.
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
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.
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.
OK, who's going to be the first to say 'huh' on the puzzle?
ME ME! HUH!?
Good one. You solved this puzzle in 0 seconds and were the 1st Tanga member to solve it. You earned 120 points for solving this
got all but #10
I have the theme, even some of the answers, but it's not something I'm really good at, face/group recognition sigh
I'm clueless about almost all of these. Guess I'll wait for another day.
any help on #8?
I have 1, 4, 5, 12 & 15, can help with those
need salt on #7... I think I have the others... no clue who that guy is tho
I too am stuck on 7 and 8
I have all of them except #8 and #15 (can't figure out what another word)
got everything but 8, any salt?
[4] not sure who that guy is but think along the lines of pearls pumpkin FOOd
[7] it's not to much what kind, but when
2 and 10 have me stumped
I think I figured out what the theme is.. Can someone TG me and let me know if im on the right track ?
15 is often said followed by the word 'era'
Thought this would be easy after solving the cryptopix, but I have no clue on most of these so I'll pass tonight.
7 and 8 have both myself and my DJ husband stumped!
I think 7 is a type of techno music
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.
I would like to say boo on 8
i have no clue on #2
#8 doesn't fit the theme really and #2 is just vague...any help there?
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.
need 2, 7, 10
I think I now have all but 8 -- I can help with 2 - TG me
any help on 2 or 14?
[23] Hard to give salt on that one without being too salty. Umm..I can try. "get up and ____"
I'm not into "face" puzzles.....big pass on this one.
Like said before 8 is not really a genre. Its more of an era.
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.
[26] tg sent
#14 is lasting, archetype, etc.
[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.
ok i thought i have them all now, but still not taking. . . .
any help on 7 and 10 please?
[36] watching those things spin can get quite hypnotic
#10 think more along the lines of 90's music
[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...
looking for 2 & 8...
ready to trade...
six? six? old fart here trying to get 6 anyone lend some salt please
[41] clean yourself up, old fart
thanks [42] but I did not say I was a stinky old man :^)
sheesh I finally got it to take.
[40] tg sent
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?
for #8 I referred to [13] but my answers still aren't going
Got all but 8 and 10
8 still has me mystified as well
[48] maybe try a "different" answer. you know, a "back-up" answer. another possibility perhaps. another option.
Got it Boo on 10 how about some heavy salt on 8
8 is worse than 10 try decades
[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! :)
[52] perfect thank you
[53] #8 is the worst answer ever in a hypercross
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
Not sure I agree with all of these, but whatever fits.
Am I the only one stuck on #9?
[58] are you feelin' lucky? well are ya?
[59] Thanks
can I tg someone my list to check it out??
[61] tg away
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.
Solved in 84 minutes! That was easy ...
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.
stuck on 3, 7, 9... need some salt or something
thanks [62]
[66] well 3 is the godfather of ____ 7 is a type of techno wikipedia always helps 9 [59] is great salt
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
[69] The deal of the day often covers comments for me too. It usually goes away when I point to it, but not always.
my first top 100...whoo hoo!!
stuck on #2 as well...
Yikes, everyone is right about #8
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 :)
Good grief... too much identification and too much guessing on the answer that goes with each. Pass.
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.
[76] If so, please not as yet another picture identification exercise. I prefer hypercrosses that are actual puzzles.
any salt on 14....I've tried wiki for genres that end with rock...but nothing fits
[78] Try another,classier, word for "old".
#8 gave me the hardest TTime.
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.
Wow - 7 almost put me into a deep, fog like state! ;)
