On 24 _ Johns' _ is... plural possessive ("John" x 2)?, singular possessive ("Johns" x 1)?

Kinda not sure what to look for there. Well, obviously... John, something. But I exhausted all my John leads & ended up in stumpsville.

Thanks to AtionSong too for such a massive effort. Amazing stuff! Very Happy

Eh, well just skipped 14 and figured out the answer to 17 I believe from hints on here. Up to 24 now. Too many Johns though.

In hindsight I can say for absolute certain there was no way in the universe I was going to get that one on my own.

Thanks.

Re: Floor 14
Not correct?

Going back to Floor 14, I've worked out the answer but isn't the first letter of the answer (the chord) incorrectly "tabbed"?

I can see the pattern for the 2nd and 3rd letters (chords) of the answer which are played on the 2nd and 3rd fret but the 1st chord spreads to the 4th fret (or row of numbers)?? Does that make sense to those who worked out the answer?

No one has replied to my last post....
E chord is shown with the number 2's on the row of numbers:
000200
022000
000000

All fine by looking at the pattern the number 2's create.

D Chord
000000
000303
000030

All fine by looking at the pattern the number 3's create..

But the C chord is not right? The C chord is tabbed 032010.
Or as per visual representation using number 1's:
000010
001000
010000
000000

and not the below as per floor 14:

000010
000000
001000
010000

Or basically, when playing a C, you don't touch the 4th fret which the 4th row of numbers represent? Is it only me who thinks this is not quite right?

Ationsong, can you clarify please?

Q 20

Hi

Any clues for floor 20 please? I tried Googling Eric's Girl and got a lot of hits, but none of the answers seem to work.

BTW, I was lucky enough to guess the answer to Floor 7 that takes you up the express elevator to Floor 27, but then got stuck on 27, so now I'm working my way up the stairs doing all the floors while thinking about 27.

I've got to say that some of these stairwells are pretty stinky! Shocked

Cheers

I'm stuck on 23. The Ladies' girl. I've tried every group of Ladies I can think of following the pattern from previous clues, and I've gone outside that box with other things, too. But I'm stumped. Any non-giveaway clues?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

How long have you been stuck? has it been one week? Try a group which has "Ladies" in its title rather than a group of Ladies

I totally understand your clue, and I tried everything I could find related to that band before I posted the first time. I'll go back and try again... At least I know now that I was on the right track. Thanks! Smile

Has anyone solved 27 yet?

If not, can we get some sort of a hint from the author please.
Spent a few hours looking into ciphers, foreign languages, acronyms etc. to no avail.

Thanks in advance

Can I get a hint for Floor 26 please?

I figure it's to do with X and Y chromosomes but none of those combinations work.

Had a thought that 27 might be the first 3 lines of a song, separated by the pipe symbols. Each letter would be the first letter of a word. But can't think of a suitable song!

Also can't think of an English word ending ..PF Confused

Help needed, I think. Anyone? Please?

You just need to simplify your answer down to a bare minimum
