LOL @ "stumped" - since that is all that would be left after the third pic was removed!

I just found out all these years, I had the 2nd word wrong. Always thought it repeats the 1st word.

BTW, that thing on the bottom is not a wooden wine bottle, it's used to row a boat!

[13] from what I have read, it was up earlier and we missed it!
yelowflower
Posted on Sat Mar 01, 2008 07:17 PM |
[19] really? how much earlier, I've been checking the site since 8:30 and haven't seen it.
scoutmom
Posted on Sat Mar 01, 2008 07:18 PM |
It was apparently up BRIEFLY at 9:20 Eastern

[20] I read Domino's comments on the HOWW - he didn't say when, just that he completed it, unless his comment was a red herring!

The new hypercross came up a little after 9:00, then shortly after that, after one person completed it, it dissapeared.

This is getting to be like the products - you never know when they come or go, but if you wait a while, they come back, only cheaper!

(14)Scoutmom, so far was the best salt for me. Looked that up and finally found it.

[27] how did you look that up? I tried verbatim as well as combo's - no luck

What do you puzzlemakers have against correct punctuation?
BetaPrime
Posted on Sat Mar 01, 2008 07:47 PM |
You need to know what type of ship it is. Might be something you find in a bag of Tanga Trash.
tlmitch7
Posted on Sat Mar 01, 2008 07:51 PM |
I don't see how anyone would get that word from that pic, I kept saying 'shipleg', not even close. Maybe you have to figure out what the ship is full of.

[29] People complain when it is correct and when it is not correct. This one split the difference with one used and one skipped.

If you lived in the Song dynasty between 960-1270 you would have seen many of these. The English pronunciation of the word fits with [30]

Ok, I've got the 'wooden wine bottle', the album, and the type of ship. Thats where my trail goes cold. Any help with pictures 1 and 3?
NVM, thanks to [39]

Very poor puzzle.
I solved it but have never heard of it.
It's not a "ship" nor is it a "leg".
The album is also virtually unknown.
Other than Bugs Bunny and the prisoner (which is also not intuitive) nothing is what it appears to be.

I solved the puzzle and through back-solving finally figured out what the leg is meant to represent. Maybe there should be an arrow pointing to the front? If it had been more obvious it would have been easier to overlook the wooden wine bottle.
fun puzzle nonetheless

Gah!
The boats and rabbit were the only part I got right off the start.

There are THREE punctuation in the correct title (according to their site)... that's 6 combos... try just the apostrophe

I figured it out, but still have no idea about the ship. I like the tanga trash idea better.

Thanks [41] I was getting aggravated. I think tanga should just strip all punctuation when checking the answer. That, or leave it as an option for the puzzle designer.

This puzzle rocks!

[38] I wouldn't call this a "very poor puzzle." I didn't personally care for the ship clue, but I got the leg, "bottle," and album immediately, then backfilled the rest. There are pretty darn famous sayings and titles that we all haven't heard of, so just because you don't know it doesn't make it a bad puzzle.

okay. my husband just did it after me, and figured it out and explained what the things are. Chinese? come on. who would have known that.

again with the punctuation. if you aren't going to use the right punctuation, why use any at all?
Rickj4029

[47] It's not a bad puzzle because I've never heard of it and it is hardly "famous". (I have also been around long enough to have heard just about everything.)
It is a bad puzzle because the clues sucked.
