There is some variation in obscurity. Some have it tougher than others I fear because it's hard to keep the same level within the framework of the theme. I will try to even it out in R3 where I can. BTW I love your signature! Is that new or have I just not noticed it before? 1 hour ago, a free shadow said: apple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just this morning, I picked the last of this years apples. I left 2 huge buckets outside my house for people to take on their way to work. I'll keep the best ones for you @a free shadow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolorous Gabe Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 There will likely be an extension. Hopefully I will have every clue in at some point on Friday if not late tonight. Once I have something acceptable from everyone, I will post them right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took all of them, and buckets, too In exchange I left other buckets and apples that look just like the old ones, but are luckier If you rub them, new apple trees spring up across around the oceans!

Dolorous Gabe Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 Apologies for the delay. I'm just awaiting a reply from the final author. Regardless, I will publish the clues in a bit but it will probably be with one missing for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolorous Gabe Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 ROUND ONE CLUES 1. Fallen (heir, wizened) crossing. 2. Fishtails harbored woman cook. 3. Implored offensive. [Hot]headed, undresser. 4. Followed horse, whacking cranium. 5. Fosters hawks while crippled. 6. Fell headless, wedding chimes. 7. From hedges? White cape. 8. Foil halts wedding cha-cha. 9. Flame haired watchable commander. 10. (Father's headless.) Warrior's captured. 11. Iron overran his corners. Theme??? Your deadline for completing your final answers will be on Thursday 20th October at 11pm UK time (please note the time zone) You will get one preliminary set of answers to which I will tell you precisely what is right and what is wrong. In the spirit of generosity after what has been a difficult week of clue-making, I have convinced The Acro-Demon to add two nice easy clues intended both to assist with finding the theme and to help avoid players ending up with minus scores. The Acro-Demon was mostly pleased with your efforts in making clues so is happy to oblige on this occasion. For the sake of balance however, the Acro-Demon wishes you all the most rotten luck there can be. Happy hunting! Edited to add: characters assignments for round two will be delivered either tomorrow or Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julia H. Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Oh, so this is what my fellow-players come up with when they want to make their clues absolutely guessable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolorous Gabe Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 Please note There are no historical characters in any of the three rounds of this game. They are all alive at the start of the ASOIAF books. Remember that these are all minor characters in R1, only differing on level of obscurity.

Castellan Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I expect its the acro demon' ambition to make us admit we know less than nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolorous Gabe Posted October 17, 2016 Author Share Posted October 17, 2016 Bear in mind that you will receive feedback on each answer that is wrong when you submit your prelims in this round, so sending prelims as early as possible might turn out to be a good idea as you will get longer to consider my comments. The Acro-Demon forbids me from giving such feedback in R2 because the characters will be very well known (apart from two slightly devious additions by our sinister guest). A little comment on the theme. This is one of the most basic ideas for a theme made somewhat trickier by being obscurer characters. If nobody works it out in the next day or so I'll create a hint of some kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
