Lady Blizzardborn Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 My computer crashed before I saved my working file with the round's clues and my guesses. I'd like to request an extension, since I have to start over on that. Sincerest felicitations to our good Ser Not Appearing and family! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yomi Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 It sucks that your computer crashed, but it's still 5 1/2 days to the deadline, including both weekdays and weekend. Do you really need an extension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really need an extension? Can I simply request the list of answers? I don't mind spending two points on that No? I can go as high as 5 points but no higher. No? How about I send you a nice box of chocolates? A crate of wine? Hello? yomi??? Hello????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yomi Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 5 points and a box of chocolates would normally be very tempting, but right now I still have chocolate left from Easter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She who must be Obeyed Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Felicitations dear Ser on the happy addition to your family. Pay no attention to my Nonc Sniffer, he loves kids. Many is the night he has fallen asleep reading, or being read to, by girls with names like Karate Princess, My Precious, Punkin and Sweet Tater! I can't tell you the number of father daughter events where nieces have abandoned their own dads (my other 6 uncles ) to ask Nonc to escort them. He has Easter Bunny, Great Pumpkin and Tooth Fairy on his resume, not to mention being such a great Santa that other dads take their cue from him, much to the chargrin of the Mothers who have to clean the Santa boot prints off the carpet in front of their fireplaces I will use your wonderful happening to state clearly I have the world"s greatest Uncle! And send to you and your family many congratulations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castellan Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I believe you are quoting Socrates. roughly. I believe I know (I nearly believe I know) four or five answers and have ideas about others that can only be resolved by finding a theme. I can't find a theme. The only definite clue I have (yielded by a search of ice and fire) contradicts the tentative theme I would otherwise have based on the other nearly-knows. It may be time to spend some points.
