One theory we're working on in chat is that there are two clips associated with the tic tac toe puzzle because all letters aren't accounted for.

If you exclude "turn_to_face_you" and "excellent_excuse" you are left with:

C(HO)(NE)F(EU)(SY)(EO)SY(HO)(AU)V(EI)_(ID)(TO)

Where letters in () are in the same tic-tac-toe grid.

and just to point out:

from the above letters you can also get (if you borrow the T from "turn")

the_eyes_have_it

which leaves something like

CONFUS YOU I DO

I think that goes with personal_calls, if I recall correctly.

Sorry - please link me to where your solve is, I am going a bit cross-eyed from going back through this list-- I will double and triple check everything but if you want it added now, post it again.. please

I know, we need thebruce Wink


heh.. was out at salsa. It was back on page 2 but it's ok.. it was an easy puzzle anyway! What i really want is to solve one of the bastard ones like the bottle tops or Dvorak or those frickin' famous people I spent ages looking for Evil or Very Mad.

Once again, props go to all.. especially whoever figured out the famous people and saved my sanity Worshippy

Can we get a 'solved' tag?

Solve for famous people

I sent this in a PM to Rose twice, but it doesn't seem to be going through:

Credit and path for Excellent_excuse solve.

Based on the trail in this forum, credit for the first step of the solve should go to Arana (me grabbing for credit straws) for this post where I first proposed the idea that we should look at where the heads were looking, rather than what the pictures were of. I got this from linking the phrase in n-cat to this puzzle.

ElViento then took the next step in this post where he/she used my idea to get "turn to face you".


According to the post by Xevo, who also posted the solve for this puzzle, Peeven then used "turn to face you" that was posted to the chat to do his/her brilliant letter subtraction and anagram interpretation to get the rest of the solve. If Peeven did it on his/her own, then I relinquish credit! But Xevo seemed to think the first parts icame from the Arana and ElViento posts!

I'm pretty sure it's not solved. There is definitely a clip missing where Rani asks about the waitress's husband.

Was the cave-drawing picture from page 6 ever used?



EDIT: Yes, it's a new account. I've been lurking during the ilovebees stuff, but I posted back here during Push, NV (and have forgotten what my username was at the time).

It was solved by Arioch and produces "kitchen_smells" when folded in (as in Mad Magazine final page).

I don't notice a gap in the assembled .wav on ARGN.

Yep, Arana should get credit, it was his/her lateral thinking on it that got us going towards what was the solve Smile I just did some gruntwork!

Okay, well maybe it's another .wav from the faces, but there is a clip missing between kitchen_smells and plasma_torpedo.

The assembled file has the waitress saying:

"What, doesn't everybody?
What, Greg? That's my husband."

It really sounds like something is missing, and it doesn't sound like she is saying "but" instead of "what".

I don't buy the gap theory. It sounds OK to me, I think she's just responding to something nonverbal like a 'get back to work' gesture or something.

I hear it like this:


"What, doesn't everybody? But, Greg (That's my husband)"

Is the solved image posted somewhere?
