Sorry, thumbs down from me. Great idea, but since there are hundreds of possible answers, a more leading clue towards the answer would be more helpful than the given clue. I only got it through a reverse definition search, and a scavenger hunt isn't really a puzzle IMHO.
[15] agreed. I've never seen most of these used so it just turned into a big Google-fest. A few too many variations to make this much fun. Not a bad puzzle... just not a fun one. YMMV.

Tough one, but fun. I've never heard (seen?) a lot of those.

I've got the message from the puzzle... but I'm apparently doing exactly what the message says, because I can't figure out the answer. LOL
EDIT: AHA! Had to repeat it out loud several times before it finally smacked me in the face.
[7] Uhhh... that's the only word I couldn't figure out. There are too many possibilities... and the "right" one wasn't on either source I found.

Any salt on what the second one is? I've got all the others and have the "clue" except for that part.
Edit: Never mind. I got it. Boy do I feel dumb now.

I didn't know three of them, but you can get by w/o them.
And I think the answer is pretty clear, once you know what you're looking at.
