not the same answer for both thou... I guess the hard one uses more obscure answer words.

These pics look so easy, but what am I to do with them now? Any salt on the theme?

Wow. Pretty cool! The title, as usual, is the clue.

edited - too salty.
It is hard to get a good clue without giving this away, but maybe if you look cross-eyed at the puzzle it would help.

[20] and [12] how about a push in the right direction? pleeease?

The second word of the title is VERY important.

Arnott, you are very evil tonight.
Or, in the words of Gomez Addams:
"Dirty pool old man - I like it!"
(the above has no salt, just a statement to A.)

You wanted salt. I gave it.
For example, #1 has nothing to do with bozo or lunch.

[25][27][34] are all salty. [27] is what got it for me.

[37] even with that salt - none of my "answers" will fit anywhere...else...

[34] Thanks. Looking back, it makes sense.

[34] did it for me. Thanks

not to me...how do you solve a puzzle if the answers don't match the clues?
jmcintyre
Posted on Tue Apr 01, 2008 07:35 PM |
[34], [36] You sure did, and rubbed it right into my wounds. Just what I needed :)

you know, it may be a brilliant puzzle, but - it's not really any fun, so...good night all
BetaPrime

I'm impressed by you people who solved it w/out salt... I would be looking at this for at least another hour before I able to come up with the solution on my own.

Take a look at the clues that APPEAR to be the same. there lies your answer on the theme. Than the answers just fall into place. 33rd and in awe of the knot once again.

Yeah [34] is what did it for me, thank you, cool puzzle

[34] did it for me, too. Man, that one was hard to get going on! Really clever idea, though.

I just compared two clues, and they are the same, so I'm not sure what that tells me.

could someone TG me a swift kick of a clue please?

Posted on Tue Apr 01, 2008 07:48 PM |
Thanks, [34]. This is a clever puzzle, but I think it needs a slightly better initial hint.

It's too bad Arnott couldn't be here tonight to see us all twist in the wind with this one!
davey
Posted on Tue Apr 01, 2008 07:51 PM |
OK ... I got it by figuring out all the words and fitting them into the spaces, but that seems kind of brute force. Was there a better way to solve this that I missed?
hwango
Posted on Tue Apr 01, 2008 07:53 PM |
Yeah, I need help. Neither staring at the clues nor reading the hints in the comments are getting me anywhere. = (

okay, I solved it, but I'm not sure I solved it the right way -- that was crazy
cyncat
Posted on Tue Apr 01, 2008 11:52 PM |
It helps to make a list, but not necessary.
It's brilliant. The clues are always one step ahead of the entries.
hwango
Posted on Tue Apr 01, 2008 07:55 PM |
I have a list, but everything I've tried doing with it hasn't worked.

I definitely solved it the "cheaters" way. I found it when I looked at the pictures side by side.
