Castellan Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Actually 5 & 6 are quite clear to me especially 6. But they don't match my only theme idea! I find 7 & 8 and 1 & 2 more difficult. In that 7 & 8 could arguably be a few people each and 1 & 2 my answers could be totally wrong, I am not at all convinced of them. 11 I got nothing. I suppose it will turn out be be really obvious. I have sent my first question in, but I think Yomi is usually asleep when I am awake and posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julia H. Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I can think of three possible answers to #5 and I have two characters that (IMO) perfectly match #6. I have several ideas for #1, and none that would seem to be the single best one (so it's probably someone different). I can think of two characters matching #11, but one of them seems to be a better answer than the other, so there is some hope there. There are very few clues I feel certain about, but my biggest problem (only real problem) is with a clue that I think I have solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Not Appearing Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Granted that I'm distracted but my score will be rather miserable this round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Um, yeah I proposed that, and no one voiced any opinion. Thinking more about it, I realized that you can find out if your are close for two points anyway (spent one point to ask if you got the theme, if yes, be happy, if no, ask if you are at least close), so there doesn't need to be a special rule about it.

At that is after I took a break for the week, o build up tolerance Clue 6 was one of the first ones I solved. That is...I think I solved. I'm really hoping that it was one of the few I had right in prelims cause nobody else I can think of fits that clue. Clue 5 took me a while but I think I might possibly have figured out the right answer. Either that or I am spectacularly wrong on it! Overall I've found this round easier than round one. I didn't even try beyond my prelims for round one. I'm either going to have a fantastic score or a really embarrassingly bad one this round. I'm still not sure on a couple and have no idea who clue 2 is about. *scratches head, sure I'm missing something obvious* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night'sQueen Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 This is the first round where I feel certain of so few answers, and have multiple options for so many others (and none of them seem like good options.) Oh, and no idea on theme that can help me sort any of this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julia H. Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I handed in what I consider to be my final answers. Of course, there is still time for me to experience a sudden light bulb moment but I'm not really expecting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolorous Gabe Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I do not think I can even come up with an answer to the 6th clue Edit: I have an answer to it, although the reasoning is deeply uncertain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yomi Posted April 17, 2016 Author Share Posted April 17, 2016 Well, actually, yeah. I didn't have much time this weekend, so there weren't many responses by me then. Extension till Tuesday, 19th April, 10 am Central European time. That's a few minutes less than 35 hours from now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castellan Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Oh well I have been at work (I mean at my job not at work on acrophilia) since extension was announced and was just trying to look at my answers to see what kind of useful question I could ask Yomi while she is awake, but I have so many clues wrong I think or with no answer at all (when I look at them its clear I was being a bit blind earlier)and even #5 which I think is clear I do not like because it makes a theme harder if my answer is correct. Woe is me. I can't even come up with a point buying strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have sent my first question in, but I think Yomi is usually asleep when I am awake and posting. Wow, I am shocked to hear so many are struggling! I will admit to finally just going with my gut on clue 5 but that was only after I had discovered the theme, and I did have to spend a point or two to uncover the answer. as for 1, 2, 6, and 7 they were the first ones for me. These seemed quite straightforward especially 6. There's really only 2 ways to go with it, IMO. Number 8 (in addition to number 5) proved to be most difficult for me since there are several insurrections to chose from which ultimately failed. Honestly this round seemed slightly easier than the last, though I did spend a couple of points this time I didn't have to spend on the last round. This gives Castellan a chance to go ahead of me - a slight chance, to be sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
