Sorry if I missed something ... but why isn't it 'Issaquena' for the I.?

It's conceivable...in fact, I put it down once I saw it. But if that's it, how does "TANLI" come into play?

idaknow ... Embarassed

But then again, there's a lot of the puzzles that people got the answers and I don't know how they got them. Shocked

Good luck to everybody!

I don't think it is Issaquena for the simple fact that they put an x right on Hardee, It must play into this somehow. So far with all my searching, I have only found a brief mention that it used to be called Hardee's Plantation. Not sure how that helps but thought I would throw it out there.

Maybe it's a hint equating to "Hardly".
I too, put in Issaquena as my "I" name and will stick with it, but can't help wondering about the points the path took to get there.
Rough approximations of the cities it goes through are:

Seville (or possibly Cadiz), Spain
Waterford, Ireland
Warsaw, Poland
Tarnaw, Poland
Frankfurt, Germany
Sassari, Sardinia
La Harpe, Il, USA

Someone one Neowin used Hardee as a latin anagrm => "Hedera" which translates to Ivy ... could be da winnah?

The explanation for Ivy is pretty convincing - I'm calling off my search.

I giggled

HaHa Laughing

anyone else think its funny that if ivy is the I name, they gave it to us in the prize video after completing Puzzle box 4? I mean, come on, she says it right there at the end..."Go to the directory L-O-K-Ivy"!

HeHeHe...I'm not gonna win squat, but at least I've gotten a few chuckles....

This is a quote form NEOWIN guys.

(brilo211 @ Jan 30 2007, 16:55)
I think my wife just won to let you know. She just got an email from some guy saying she was the first to enter it right. I totally gave her the answer (I went with Iva, it means "great gift") but I had her enter Ivy. Some guy from Marden-Kane wrote the email.



Apparently his wife won! I don't know if he's telling the truth or not. The guys from NEOWIN are skeptical as well, but if it's true, then that's it.

Watches

Ever see a KARA watch? Hands but no numerals. The clock I saw in the "Game" was the opposite... numerals.. no hands. Smile cute.
The first gal to sit down was playing with a WATCH.
The second, the WAND.
The third- a BOOK
The fourth- tipping her (eye) GLASSES.
Requires four names...
