*Cryptic Sleuth* (kind of.. they're probably more riddle-esqe)

So here's a quick competition that will end on Monday Night at clockover.

I used to do this on and off for the Pub Quiz coz it's not something you can Wiki :)

Just identify your fellow Sleuth from the clues below. They vary in difficulty.

Of course you'll probably need some basic knowledge of who is about, and I've had to trawl the agencies memberships, and read the City News / Villain Hunts / Treasure Hunt / High Score Boards to find some myself. *hint*

Oh yes there's a one month sub on offer, or if you don't want it, you can just have the accolade of being cleverer than everyone else.

In the event 2 people have all the answers it'll be the first person who gets them into me. Them's the breaks... the tie-breaks that is. :s

Last thing... DON'T POST YOUR ANSWERS HERE.

PM me Secret_Squirrel using the internal Sleuth Mail System with your answers.

I'll post the answers on Monday Night, and announce who won, and how you all did.


................ CRYPTIC SLEUTH .................

Example. Which feline lover left the light on? Breitkat (get it? Bright-Cat.)

1. She comes from a extremely long line of very special girls.

2. Agatha's Belgian needs an assistant...

3. I can't find Marty anywhere. Or Mary... hmmm or Martha!

4. Donna get down off of there!

5. She's a slow bird.

6. I foresee a nasty accident with a deep fat frier in your future.

7. Tennis anyone? No? Then how about Cards? You're guaranteed to lose.

8. Beer Mac? No thank you, I make my own.

9. Every four months you just have to let it all hang out.

10. A mere maid! Come, come, now... Oh I misheard, your dancing distracted me.

11. When I greet the morning a monster is the last thing I expect to see!

12. She's very keen on gumshoes.

13. These glasses aren't quite rose-tinted, but they're good enough to make my golf score seem average.

DON'T POST YOUR ANSWERS HERE... PM me .

Good luck!

Clockover (rollover) tonight. That's about 4 / 5pm ish in topsy turvy land.

So y'all have some hours yet to get your answers in. No-one has them all correct yet, so there's still hope for a late entry win.

Mar-16-2009 15:42

Not sure if I asked this Squirrel but can I enter on another detective :p

Mar-16-2009 15:54

I think so Helen and then you post your answers here. :)

Mar-16-2009 19:39

And I'm not sure if I asked. But did I win? And oh yea... ctown cheated.

Mar-16-2009 19:41

You can't prove anything nic! And nothing in the rules says I can't use my irresitable charm to get the answers from you! :-P

Mar-16-2009 19:50

Nic also cheated, Ctown stole the answers from me and she went and stole them from him. So overall Squirrell I should win because I didn't cheat ;)

Oh wait I need to post my answers here Leddie? Jeez I'm so Stupid I better go dig em up :)

Mar-16-2009 19:59

Don't bother, I've seen your answers... they aint that pretty! :p

Mar-16-2009 20:38

Where are the answer? Someone post something!

Mar-16-2009 20:39

ctown and ms helen stole all my good answers and I submitted the bad ones!

Oh and hap.... after turnover tonight.... drum roll....

Ok here are the answers. Winner TBA in a minute when I total up.

1. She comes from an extremely long line of very special girls. (AmazingAmanda253)

^ This was apparently a tricky one for everyone, and I had this classified as one of the easier ones.

2. Agatha's Belgian needs an assistant... (Poirot's Protege)

3. I can't find Marty anywhere. Or Mary... hmmm or Martha! (cfm)

^ Ok I knew no-one was going to get this. Can't Find Marty were initials, and the different names were a reference to no-one knowing what cfm stood for... a very hard one, yes. Though if you'd checked the old pub quiz thread there was a similar clue for cfm last time round!

4. Donna get down off of there! (topkebab)

^ Donner Kebab!

5. She's a slow bird. (turtledove)

6. I forsee a nasty accident with a deep fat frier in your future. (psychicpotato)

7. Tennis anyone? No? Then how about Cards? You're guaranteed to lose. (Acemaster)

8. Beer Mac? No thank you, I make my own. (Mackenzie Brewer)

9. Every four months you just have to let it all hang out. (Reckless April)

This was hard too and kudos to those who got it. I originally had 'Some months', so it could have been harder...

10. A mere maid! Come, come, now... Oh I misheard, your dancing distracted me. (Mamba Mermaid)

11. When I greet the morning a monster is the last thing I expect to see! (Dawn Dragon)

^ Ok this was hard too.

12. She's very keen on gumshoes. (detectivehappy)

13. These glasses aren't quite rose-tinted, but they're good enough to make my golf score seem average. (Violet Parr)

BRB!
