Card Reverse - (matches backgrounds with card #036 - Jelly Beans. #35 is the left hand side, #36 is the right hand and provides the first half of the narrative)

A group of people were nearby, stood watching someone play a new puzzle game. It looked complex - lights flashed, the guy reacted and I looked away. All round me, people were playing with puzzles in different ways. A girl sat alone at the counter swivelling in her chair, pen in mouth, puzzle book open. Across the room, people looked at their keys, passing the time with the latest Sentinel riddles. Even a glance at the clockwouldn't get you a straight answer, the squares chanign the code each second. I took a sip of the coffee. It tasted bitter; filter coffee of course. Well, how else could they offer bottomless cups? Then I remembered, I wasn't drinking here for the quality.

The door opened again, causing the room to shiver. This time though, the intruder caught my eye. No bustling entrance, no over exaggerated gestures of relief, just quickly in and to a table. The waitress ambled over to her, listing today's specials. Not for her. Just coffee; black lots of sugar. I grabbed a napkin from the holder. It asked me, "When's the best time to have lunch?" and I screwed it into a ball. No riddle for me thanks.

If this was her, she wasn't what I was expecting. But then I guess I didn't really know what to epxect. I shuffled from behind my table and headed towards her. She didn't turn.

I opened my mouth and everything changed.

"Hi."

Hi all. Long time lurker (played a bit after joining towards the end of season 1) and first time poster. Please be gentle with me if I've made any major boo-boo's in this posting, but I checked the FAQ and other posts so I hope I've got the format right.

Looking forward to puzzling with you all!

Oh and it appears to be borked at the moment, as I know* I've got the correct answers and it's still throwing back as incorrect. Mailed MC so we shall see....




*Sadly I have seen most of the bands listed and through a happy combination of good company and strong drink I enjoyed them greatly. I googled the ones I hadn't seen, hence me saying I know the answers I've given are right... Very Happy

I tried these answers in IE and locked out:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ABBA (Bjorn Again)
OASIS (Definitely Might Be)
THE ROLLING STONES (Stoned Again)
BARE NAKED LADIES (Fully Clothed Gents)
LED ZEPPELIN (Whole Lotta Led)
MADNESS (One Step Behind)
PINK FLOYD (Floydian Slip)
FRANK ZAPPA (The Muffin Men)


The exact same answers in Firefox were accepted.
I think this is a bug (you will not be able to solve puzzles with drop-down menu answers in IE).

Agreed Methos. I solved it last night with the same answers as you, but used Firefox after IE would not accept the dropdowns.

I have been unable to find a good answer for the riddle on the back.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The internet turned up "After breakfast!" On the other hand I think that "lunchtime" is a much better answer


Does anyone else have a good one? Or at least a response better than what I and the internet could come up with.[/spoiler]
