Good evening. What is the significance of the fruit next to our names in here?

So, is "-s" part of the puzzle, or some kind of signature?

Umm, got the answer, but part three seems broken to me...
xpsdude
Posted on Mon Jul 02, 2007 07:27 PM |
[11] Hadn't noticed that. #3 is wrong.
bnocturnal
Posted on Mon Jul 02, 2007 07:29 PM |
Actually, the "-S" applies to the 5th part... though I think most people would figure it out without the "-s" just fine.

Posted on Mon Jul 02, 2007 07:29 PM |
If #3 is wrong, what would be right?
bnocturnal
Posted on Mon Jul 02, 2007 07:31 PM |
#3 would be right, if the title were "Casper Ghost meets Wendy"

[14] I think "Dick Tracy Meets Gruesome" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0039320/) would do it.

I agree with [16], and I'll add that Will Ferrell's film "Stranger Than Fiction" might have been a better choice for the second poster.
Nice answer, though. Solved a bit differently than the usual method.

Well, having all the clues correct would have really helped me to answer this puzzle.
Is this #23 or 24 in the past 6 weeks that have been fatally flawed?

Sometimes Tangaization is not just for one letter.

[8] was what set me on the right track.

[22] I'm in the same boat...none of the standard "tangaing" seems to be working here. :(
[23] Me neither...

I haven't looked at the hard one - wasn't this supposed to be "easy"?
before I go off on a wild goose chase - do I have to go looking for the stars of each of these movies?? or any other research?
bcgrote
Posted on Mon Jul 02, 2007 07:48 PM |
I spose we must also ignore the first 2 words of #2, and the first 'the' of #4.... sigh....
Fine, when I get over my yucky sinus, I will make a couple of puzzles that hopefully don't fall to pieces when you put them in gear...

I got a phrase that I've heard before, but not sure what to do now.
[30] - I haven't looked at the harder puzzle yet either, but some of these easy ones are definitely not easy.

but thank-you ... *tick* *tick*

Response to #31- Yes, ignore the first two words on #2, but don't ignore the first "the" of #4. But, [16], [20], and [24] may help those stuck on this.

Posted on Mon Jul 02, 2007 07:52 PM |
[20] That was a wonderfully fun film, by the way. [No, this is not hidden salt.]

[33] Thanks dajagr!
I tried putting my phrase into Google and got too many results. Finally noticed that a few of them pointed to the same answer.
I don't usually complain, but I really didn't like this one. First the numbers didn't seem to quite work out as expected and then, how in the world was I supposed to derive that answer from the phrase?

It'd be helpful if there was an explanation somewhere for first-time user so I'd know what I'm looking at here and what the point is, exactly.

Sorry 3 is broken. My first attempt at making a puzzle. Three would work as stated above if it read "casper ghost meets wendy".
I really expected to get some sort of feed back before it was posted. I just uploaded it today.

Oh man, I'm a lemon! I had better go and see why.

So are we Tangabots or Tangacepticons?
Tanga is evil so I'm thinking the latter.
