If you take out the word World from otpaaworldtdnia, the rest anagrams out to read the word ADAPTATION
Is this a clue perhaps?

Ok, I can stand the suspense no longer! The cryptic meaning of the smaller lines is :

I gotta say, I'm stuck. I get the hints, I've searched for a number of things but just can't bring myself to the answer. The First 10 Solves have already been claimed, so I don't know that anyone would be upset if this was Spoiled.

I'm having trouble with this one as well. Any answer I come up with that seems to fit, someone has already posted that it's the wrong answer
Any more hints out there please?

Oh No! I get it now! Shame I locked myself out last night...
Doh! I thought that the March 2006 thing must be important, but it just didn't click.... For that, I don't even deserve a top 10

25 mins too late to be the 10th solve. Thanks for the help, dmatos.
I'm not going to join the others in saying it was even remotely intuitive. If I say much more I'll give too much away.

My wife and I were just talking it over, and she's like "What about so-and-so ?". Sure enough, having a peek on Wikipedia to make sure, she was right.
Right now I'm thinking, why didn't I see that in my searches...
<Edit>
Actually, as I was closing my web pages, I came across the name on one of the first places I had been. I could have been in the top 10...
On the bright side, this was my first silver!

Well done Neox!
I think it is pretty clever that they can make some cards that are near-impossible to Google. Most of Wave 4 seems to be Google-able but it shows cunning on part of the scribes, after all Google isn't the be-all-and-end-all of human intelligence!
