They say it's in a young girl's heart, but I've looked....only aortas and valves...
Missed top 100. Had it from the thumbnail, but took forever to load.
You solved this puzzle in 16 seconds and were the 19th Tanga member to solve it.
I don't know how to get first. this was straight forward though, good one.
Lovin' it!!
that's cute :)
You solved this puzzle in 10 seconds and were the 1st Tanga member to solve it. You earned 110 points for solving this.
My first .. uh .. 1st. I am so happy.
[6] Congrats!
Pimanee this was a nice puzzle!
TANGA checking the answer took awhile. Knew the answer from the thumbnail.
I started typing the answer and it was already in my browser's remembered text for the submission textbox ... but I can't remember the puzzle that had this answer.
[9] According to our backstage answer-checker thingie, there has not been a previous Tanga puzzle with this exact answer.
Ah... but when I add the question mark...

Heh, snuck one by us :)
Punctuation doesn't matter. 10/22 puzzle took the same thing. I guess it's one way if you're stuck on this one. lol.
Barry, it apparently matters to our answer-matching checker-thingie, as this one did not get "flagged" when we looked at it. Which is, I guess, good to know.
EDIT: okay, wait, lemme fully explain...
When anyone submits a Cryptopix or a One Word Wonder, Tanga automatically checks that puzzle's answer against ALL the answers of ALL of our other published Cryptos and OWWs. And if it matches - exactly - then a URL link shows up to us Mods only right above the solution, along with a giant tag: "SIMILAR PUZZLE FOUND."
This tag is often misleading, especially with OWWs, as what it really means is "EXACT ANSWER FOUND." We've had, for example, several OWWs with the answer SALT... but a lot of those puzzles are totally different from each other in how they work/solve. The only thing they have in common is their answer.
This feature is much more helpful, though - as you might expect - with Cryptos. Which is how, when I come across yet another SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDICIOUS puzzle I can immediately see that we've already published this answer 4 times... and it also gives me the dates for all four.
But, as it turns out, the answers must match *exactly.*
This Crypto's answer did NOT have the question mark included, which is fine, since Tanga does NOT care about punctuation when checking to see if the solver's answer is correct.
But it apparently *does* matter with this checker-feature, because last year's Crypto *did* have the question mark... which is why we didn't get the PREVIOUS flag on this one. Based on CW's comment, I edited this puzzle's answer, adding the question mark, and - ding! There it was.
You solved this puzzle in 32 seconds and were the 546th Tanga member to solve it
thanks Pimanee
Easy one but the solution says that castle is from Disneyland, it's not.
Disneyland has "Sleeping Beauty's Castle" which is wider but not as tall.
The picture is of Cinderella's Castle at Disney World.
[13] awesome info for a data nerd like me!
I finally got one!!! AWESOME! I'm on a roll today!
I was actually able to get this one! Yay!! Loved it!
Fun one, but, got hung up on the 2nd clue, I needed to pay more attention to the rest of the puzzle..
