Ah, made that harder than it should have been. When it clicks it clicks. :) Good puzzle.

I was going for the wrong thing for 7 minutes. Then I got it. 66th. It should have been a freebie.

No idea why this is marked as 4 stars for difficulty. You solved this puzzle in 20 seconds and were the 1st Tanga member to solve it. You earned 110 points for solving this.

[9][10][11][12]

You have two other birds... and where they are. You need to figure out what that third bird is, and then where it is.

It should fit the same pattern as the other two:

This (bird's) (where it is).

Then figure out what the answer should *really* be :)

[13] Thanks. I'm particularly pleased with the graphocs/layout on this one. More than the puzzle itself :)

My frustration tonight was that when I had the right answer, I got a message telling me there was a problem, please refresh the page.

very nice -- can't believe I didn't see it, even with the big bright arrow

Arnott

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:21 PM |

[15] Thanks. I hope the people who aren't getting it, rerate after they do :) But if not, well... that's Tanga!

revchewie

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:24 PM |

Ditto, [19]. Forest for the trees...

Very nice, Arnott!

entropy

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:26 PM |

[16] Oh. I kept trying to fit them all together - with a giant yellow arrow involved somehow... ;)

I also now have a Silver Convention song stuck in my head, thank you very much... :-)

Hm... I don't think the punctuation is quite consistent with the clues.

mhuber

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:29 PM |

[16] you made it all clear!

cmg528

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:30 PM |

not getting it... :o(

I've put that bird everywhere I can think of

BigSlick

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:32 PM |

[5] It is? Hmmm...

Edit: I clearly can't think like Arnott!

zyzzva

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:34 PM |

wow how did i not see that. great puzzle arnott.

GamesX4

I loved the arrow, for once even my tired eyes could see what I was supposed to see. Thanks for taking those of us with bad eyesight into consideration.

aurnivi

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:39 PM |

I feel like I know what I am supposed to do but I am not getting it correct. Any salt for how to phrase it.

cmg528

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:42 PM |

I've put him in the middle,on top, inbetween, on the roof, on the house, laying down, on black, on gray...even on Earth
blahh ...

EDIT OMG I am sooo dumb...finally clicked

zyzzva

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:41 PM |

[30] try your answers again...this time w/ the bird, and say it slowly.

Arnott

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:43 PM |

[30] Well, you said it in there... it's not "on the roof", but that's close.

cmg528

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:44 PM |

I was being too literal

warrenzevon

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:44 PM |

rat pong! I'll drink to that!

Arnott

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:44 PM |

[30] EDIT... LOL. I've totally been there :)

aurnivi

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:45 PM |

ahhhhhh! I have put the bird "on the everything" and still not working.

hokie98

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:48 PM |

[37] me too... wondering if it isn't supposed to be on anything

Arnott

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:53 PM |

[37][38] TGs sent.

RANN96

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:53 PM |

sounding out what you think the answer is helps

warrenzevon

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 07:54 PM |

[37] [38] type of bird and what it is on; now run them together as the robin and the duck are described

John

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 08:00 PM |

That white bird sure would be an ugly duckling

hokie98

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 08:00 PM |

[39] thx... it finally clicked... I going to bed... need more sleep!

Arnott

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 08:06 PM |

Okay, All. I'm off for the night. Play nice.

Rastus

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 08:07 PM |

Tried it all and can't get it. Sad sad sad.

Cardzmaster2004

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 08:34 PM |

This swan is on the roof?

But it makes sense...

Great puzzle, Arnott!

dagibbs

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 08:39 PM |

It sure isn't a fiddler on the roof!

monocle

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 08:59 PM |

I know the bird. I can only think of two things that describe where it is. I must be missing something since neither one gives me points.

TopherMarsh

Posted on Sun Mar 16, 2008 09:40 PM |

i got it but it won't take... grrr ill try different punctuation. love it tho!

finally got it...

Nice puzzle from the guru of Vinci.

ARRRRRGH! knew it last night, but was making it more difficult by trying to put too much into the solution.

monocle

Posted on Mon Mar 17, 2008 07:07 AM |

doh... missed the last step.

jeffg

Posted on Mon Mar 17, 2008 07:09 AM |

The answer is missing the final period that is in the clues.

jshurt

Posted on Mon Mar 17, 2008 07:25 AM |

forget the roof. Think bigger.

I get the feeling it's just a reference that I don't know. There used to be an ice cream parlor in my home town by that name. Is this about soup, maybe?
