Just got #6 :flutter: i thought it was that after 2 clues, but didn't know what that flower was :laugh:

Livia 11-11-2014 06:49 PM

Couple of real stinkers in here Tregard. In fact, I'm not sure of any of my answers so far.

Anyone watch the Children in Need version last night? God, they do dumb stuff down for celebrities...

Mokka 11-11-2014 08:21 PM

Any more coming down the pipe?

Mokka 11-11-2014 08:22 PM

How many people are playing this time around

:laugh: yes, the connecting walls in particular

The sequences were the only ones that were equally difficult IMO... except the phonetic 'Only connect' one :think:

I was shouting the answers for the wall! That never happens...

I didn't get the phonetics one.

Answers revealed this evening

Answers time!

Connection 1 was, well, cruel. Only one person took a stab at it, that being Shaun, bravely trying to it on one clue (Letters in the country name). This was however, not the answer, the answer, was these were those location's DVD Region Codes. China is region code 5, anywhere not pertaining to a specific location (so cruiseships, aeroplanes and, in this case, outer space) is region code 8, any US territory is 1 in the UK we use region 2 DVDs. No points there

Everyone who guessed connection 2 got it right, to varying degrees. Rokkajava and Livia went for 2 points, both saying homophones, which I will give, because I'm being nice, but Shaun gave the precise answer, which is that these are words in which you can rearrange the letters to produce a new word which is a homophone of the first word. He secured 1 point.

Lot of guesses on connection 3. Shaun bagged it for 5 points, and Livia for 2. Unfortunately for Rob, they weren't all played by Angela Lansbury (especially not clues 3 and 4!), and in Mokkajava's case, they were not all specifically British Born actresses. It was simply that these characters sang the titular song.

Mokkajava went quickly on connection 4, and fell into my hideous trap. The first clue was infact a key-stroke emoticon, however, after clues 2 and 3 it became clear this wasn't what was being looked for. Shaun correctly spotted the connection for 3 points, as these are all words in which the underscore can be replaced with any vowel to make a word.

Mokkajava's answer to connection 5 was a lot more creative than the actual answer (I wish it had been things you can nibble on, although hopefully not the case for Clue 3). Livia and Shaun both bagged 3 realising these were all things which were "Anti-" (Anti-Tregus, Anti-Pasto, Anti-Biotics, Anti-Meridian)

Livia tried her luck at connection 6, thinking they were all Captain America characters, and Mokkajava said they were all deadly things. They are all deadly, and all heroes, but in very different ways. As Shaun correctly spotted for 2, they are all Female Gladiators (Nightshade, Falcon, Jet, Lightning). And coincidentally, they were my 4 childhood crushes.

So, the scores:

Quote:

Rokkajava - 2pts
Livia - 7pts
Shaun - 14pts
Sequences coming a little later! I left all the images on my other PC so having to rewrite them :L

Shaun 14-11-2014 03:40 PM

:flutter: I'm too good

I never knew Outer Space had a DVD region code :laugh:

Livia 14-11-2014 06:16 PM

I looked at DVD region codes and thought, outer space? Nahhh...

I was convinced I was right for Capt America. The falcon also had a yellow claw....

Well done Shauny x

Tregard 14-11-2014 11:18 PM

Anyone? Next clues up later.

Livia 19-11-2014 02:15 PM

Nah... I could make a guess for all of them, but I won't.

I'm away from this weekend Tregard so will miss the rest of this game, sadly.

Shaun 19-11-2014 03:03 PM

yeah i didn't bother with any of those for 5pts :laugh: no idea

Mokka 21-11-2014 01:50 PM

Even with my measly 2 points, I will not quit... I just have no guesses for 5 in sequences.
Waiting on more hints

Tregard 22-11-2014 07:39 PM

Mokka 23-11-2014 08:51 AM

Shaun 23-11-2014 04:39 PM

I've done two of them :spin2:

Livia 23-11-2014 05:27 PM

I'm away from tomorrow, so I'm bowing out of this round. Good luck guys x

Ammi 23-11-2014 09:22 PM

..who is the guy in the 6th sequence because I don't recognise him..?...

Shaun 23-11-2014 09:23 PM

I've no idea either :laugh: I think it might just be a generic man, or something that describes him
