nice

Very funny...

You solved this puzzle in 2 minutes and 27 seconds and were the 37th Tanga member to solve it. You earned 70 points for solving this.

yesssss! another top 50 finish!

#45. My first Top 50 here, too! :D

ok....I don't quite know where to go with this....a piece of salt please?!

can someone salt the red letters please? i've got the blue, but not getting anything from the red ones...

Nice puzzle leadfoot!

cripes. SALT!?! What good is salt! What would I do with salt?! I'm not even capable of spotting a red herring if it was spelled out for me! Salt. Might as well throw a salted cod at me.

Grr... nice ;)

those red letters are a bit fishy, [5] and [6]

ha... ha... ha...

Top 100 though! You solved this puzzle in 18 minutes and 47 seconds and were the 99th Tanga member to solve it

I got it but. . . well. . . yeah the reds were certainly fishy.

Sadly I had the solution method right away but didn't do the final step. It looked like nothing but garbage and I threw it out. Doh!

salted fish is sometimes good, but I would stick to something a little fresher here

[8] Disreputable
your comment made it all worthwhile!
Thanks

I was _convinced_ it was "Reggie".

Until it wasn't.

groan....

Uh? What is the blue? I got the red but the same way I got the red I tried to use on the blue, but the two don't make sense. Maybe I'm not a sports person... and is this one word? I don't see it...

[17]
check [8] for a clue what's going on with the red letters...

this is my first puzzle completed ever! nice :)

just so you know

Sorry, 'xanax' is not correct. Please try again

lol [20] I just tried that too!

I can't figure out who the puzzle is referring to.... Is it someone's first name? I thought it was Reggie too...

I'm stuck too, got the clues, just not the relevance.

notice the colors used, and associate with the words you got...

liked it a lot

[21] we made it too complicated. put in the word, not anything associated with the color.

Like [17], I figured out the red and blue, but have not been able to correlate the two into a meaningful solution. Maybe it'll come to me. The salt provided thus far has not made it "click" for me.

If you have the red and blue, then what is the red? what is the blue? You have the answer...

Thanks [28]. Got it. Feeling stupid for not seeing the answer sooner.

[28] got the red, got the blue and I'll be damned if I get the one word answer.

for those of you that have got the red and got the blue, try typing them in one at a time. see if that works! I sat around for ever trying to figure out the answer, but I already had it.

I don't even have a clue what to do with the numbers. Guess I'll never get this one.

[31] ok are we talking strictly the words by themselves or the words with their color counterparts attached?

after getting the answer finally....I hate Leadfoot.

[34]
Is that good hate :-), or bad hate >-(?

for some number help...

answer seems a little random bu oh well

Ok. I know what to do with the red letters. I have NO idea what to do with the blue ones. They don't make a word that I can see. Any salt out there for me?

And if that doesn't work - check your work.

[37]
Yeah, I should have made the answer Moon, or Beard, or Tooth, Water, Ray....

Didn't think of that until after the puzzle was published...

Maybe Next Time...

OMG! I went to wordsmith, and knew the answer before I hit "search." Thanks for the "aha" moment, leadfoot!

I got it, but why was the red letters needed at all? It is kind of silly...

I finally got it, but it is frustrating to look back how soon I should have gotten it. I thought it would be something like "fumblerooski".

AFTER I got it....... I also hate leadfoot ( not sure if it is the good way or the bad way yet.... let's see after my blood pressure drops:)

Just got the answer. It was sitting in front of me forever and I was just too distracted to notice it!

HILARIOUS!

i have no idea why the red numbers are there.... but yes, i got the answer...

I'd say after a few hours Leadfoot it would be the good hate but don't pull that crap again. I needa Murdoctor puzzle that gives me the answer once I figure it out instead of making me want to toss the PC.

[49] Thanks for the "good" hate, but sorry, no promises - you may have to get one of those indestructible PCs.

Murdoctor! Your fans are pining for you!

PB, good to see some of your puzzles again lately. Well done.

Now [34] and [45] If you really want to hate me, go do this puzzle
http://tanga.com/puzzles/210-1-20-2007

I was called evil for this one - It didn't help that it was the last puzzle in a puzzlethon, and the puzzlers only had one hour to do it!

Evil sir, very evil.

that's "ma'am"

but, ya know, I hate to be called "ma'am"
