I know the sketch the first phrase is from but can't get a accepted answer, does it want me to type a phrase? a single word?

I'm in the same boat. Thanks for the puzzle though, Desidiosus!

Me too. I googled everything else correctly, know what that phrase means, but can't find the correct answer.

Heh I still don't get it. A hovercraft full of eels is two items. Hmmm, will try again later.

Ahh, gotcha. Tried a variation on that that didn't work. Now to ponder part 2. ;)

The #1 is the hardest.
What does he means by "It's the container."

Can't get #1 either, I know the sketch well but I just can't get the right word. Got the other 4 already :(

Hovercraft full of eels - i've tried every single thing i can think of concerning that sketch AND other uses it has spawned - nothing hit the mark yet :/

And the Creature in the cave of caerbannog is a damn r*t, by, killer r****t.. it won't accept any.. meeeh

Ok im positive I know the right answers to 3 and 4 but no matter how I enter them it isn't working

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Well since the clues didn't help me in any way (I already knew it wasn't the rabbit), may I ask if it is a version of the spelling everyone is complaining about?
Also, except for no.5 are all the answers one word?

Same here. I know both of them, but #3 just isn't working and #4 has too many variations.

Yeah I looked 3 up and it seems like it couldn't be more obvious but its just not working

yep, just how it goes in your mouth might not be the one that is on the script or the one on the quiz.

Damn I just Can't get the 4th one right, I'm absolutely sure I have the right answer, it's not the damn b***y I know that and I know how it's called but I just can't get the damn spelling right...

Solved it. Thanks for the interesting quiz and giveaway!

Question 4 is simply a poor choice for this kind of quiz. There are too many variations that are perfectly reasonable to enter. Basically, you need to end up finding the page he used for reference in making the quiz to get the exact variation he used. :-p

(And yes, I got it already. No idea what to do with part 2 though.)

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

and the reference is not the script, which is the most "correct" variation.

I've got it. Damn, why you so hard - #1? :D

Lol, I've got the image, but where is the code?

Comment has been collapsed.

same here, the hint doesn't really help at all without the correct reference, using the version from the script would have been way better... this thing just has too many possible ways of writing it.

I clarified the questions with more hints.

I'm pretty sure most of you will be stuck in the 2nd part for a while so I don't mind giving hints for the 1st part.

How about a hint for the second part? :D

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

4th should now be easier in the updated puzzle since it doesn't require the exact same spelling I used now.

1 decade ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

Still can't get the thing to accept it, is the word "the" part of the answer too?
god it would be so much easier if I could just send you all the answers instead of having to depend on finding something an automated process would accept >.< but I guess I will just continue to try and get this damn thing working.

"The" is included in some of the answers for the 4th.

Thank you for the hints, still can't get it to accept my answer for 3 and 4 and am getting to frustrated now to continue, but might try again later.

To everyone else good luck and to those stuck on the first question just watch the scene again

Quick trip to Wikipedia's article on the subject will be enough, you'll find it in a second.

Wikipedia is the one I tried first when the possibility was added to use other spellings, it didn't work and I basically tried every variation of it, does it have to be a special way of capitalizing? all lowercase or all uppercase or something like that?

I just copied the term as it was written on Wikipedia. It's not the rabbit.

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Ah, thanks, that worked. I was using a different Wikipedia article. Now for that third one, I know the answer, so there must be a special way to answer it.

EDIT: Nevermind, that one worked now too.

How is the second part even a puzzle? It's a picture.

The puzzle is finding the link.

Solved the first part, but If the second just takes random tries, then it's not a puzzle, it's a needless hassle. :-(
At least give us some notion of what the "puzzle" is.
