[weezergirl]

[oznerol]

here

 

[weezergirl]

hmm did u guys get this one yet? all of his answers seems right except for maybe the jalapeno chili....i think that might be mexico or jalapa for the city to be exact because that's where it got its name.

and the first one might be barbed wire instead of barbwire...i dunno. still doens't work for me.

 

[brigden]

I think I have all the right answers for 1.13 (see above) but I'm not sure about the pepper question.

If I'm right, the answer should be bsbmammmm(t)mm. I tried every single letter of the alphabet in place of t and got nothing. It must be something else...

 

[brigden]

Anybody?

 

[isasir]

bump... I'm stuck on this as well.

 

[oznerol]

I think it might be Archangel Michael, and not just michael.... i think the city is Jalapa, too... and the home of Oasis I believe is wrong.... b-something, manchester. Not sure which they want.

In other words, I'm still stumped...

"lounger" isn't working for me

Oasis are my favourite band, and I did think that it could be Burnage, which is a suburb of Manchester, but I doubt it. I'm off to work, but when I get back, I'll try different combinations...

Just addicting.

Even if there were money, the mail page lists Total Prize Fund as 322.14 pounds

Yeah I basically figured such, but I've always loved riddles (tho' this thing is starting to lack in riddles, and just becoming more of a "Use google" contest).

Unless of course you're just saying that so you can eliminate your competition?

Besides, any thread that contains about 1/2 of a users total posts in the past year must be worth something.
