I took the list and arranged in categories that are grouped alike and with complements.
Some of the words don't have complements and I think those are words that are not to be used.
I think what we are looking for are complementary words that were not supplied in the list.

The complementary words not supplied in the list are in [ ].

The CUTEBEE.gif clue: SOUNDS LIKE; leads me to believe that words we want will be homonyms.


(operator, binary state)
OFF // ON
OPPOSITE // ( I cannot think of any homonyms)

(temporal/ spatial position)
BEFORE // AFTER, BEHIND, PAST
FROM // TO
OVER // UNDER
BETWEEN
BEYOND
ABOUT, BY, NEAR // [AWAY, DISTANT, FAR, REMOTE, ...]

(spatial position point)
BELOW, BENEATH, UNDERNEATH // ABOVE
AGAINST, ASIDE, AT, BESIDE, ONTO, WITH // [SEPARATE, DISTANT, ...]

(spatial position vectored)
INTO, TOWARD // [AWAY, OUT, OUTWARD, ...]

(spatial position distributed)
ACROSS, ALONG, ROUND, THROUGH // ( I cannot think of any homonyms)

(spatial containment)
INSIDE, IN // OUTSIDE
WITHIN // WITHOUT

(spatial distribution)
AMID, AMONG, AROUND, THROUGHOUT //(I can't think of any homonyms)

The only word that I can this a homonym for any of the above words is AWEIGH, I tried this and it did not work,

I hope somebody else has better luck.

Just trying to figure out what the wav name could be from the wav files we currently have. Not getting that far, just thought I should point out my [SPEC] as to what is said at the end of the missing wav file to cause Rani to say "Well this is MY day" at the beginning of little_brave.wav, namely that Herzog said something along the lines of "Back in my day..." Possibly saying something like "Back in my day, people were scrambling for opportunities such as this"

Just a little something for you all to chew on!

- Malrog is pleased that the puzzles have been more testing this time!

Okay so every word has to do with the location of something in relation to something else...

Maybe that's how we need to think about it?

Position
Locale
arrangement

Have we tried words like this yet?

Wow.

I come back 20 hours later, nothing much has changed... this is a ridiculous puzzle -- WTG PMs!

edit: Well at least the chicken puzzle was solved =D Little Brave... man we had gotten pretty close to that one before I left...

I rather like "position" to be in the name, 'cause it both sounds like preposition and all the prepositions can be used to describe location (as opposed to prepositions like "since"). But, that might just be on the totally wrong tack, so.

[Vilnius]

Split up preposition and you get "pre" and "position." Could it be referring to some sort of former position?

Here are a couple of other ideas...
"sounds like" could be echos
prepositions are also called locators
echolocator? echolocation?

[Arashi]

Since the wav we are looking for seems to be related to Rani's job I tried all sorts of names like


my_position, my_proposition, this_position etc

But nothing This is really frustrating
