Do you think the "L" is in upper-case purposely on #8?

These would be easier if there were categories like wheel of fortune or something... So I knew what exactly I was looking for...
Some of these are so long, the letter combinations create so many possible words my head just spins. I've resorted to taking common phrases and matching it against each sentence to see if it could be a match now.. I'm pathetic! |

I would love to say that thread was my excuse for not solving more of these yet, but these are just tough. I've gone through thinking of common phrases to see if they fit: Bird in the hand is worth two in the bush Let he who hath sin toss the first stone Let sleeping dogs lie I've tried phrases I remembered from writings or stories: Cry havoc and let loose the dogs of war I've started working on survivor phrases such as: The tribe has spoken Just no luck, |

Sorry, had just gotten on and I didn't realize where you got those clues. I thought you just had some sort of insider knowledge. |

There are a lot of c's in the Lucky Charms one...
I thought it could be something like, "You will never get your hands on my Lucky Charms" or something like that... but I'm not sure where those c's fit in. |

Also... in #4, there is a letter x. I have to think that is a Maximum Football one?
I'll do a quick search. |

but it shouldnt be there.. technically it should be they're Lucky Charms - they're magically delicious... but that doesn't work.. it works if they're is mispelled Lucky Charms - there magically delicious... Should we check with barkeep to see if it was a mistake on his part? |

I sent him a question PM asking him if we can ask if its mispelled or if we have to just take the chance and submit it. I told him we had: Lucky charms - there magically delicious which fits fine, but it should be they're not there. I'll see what he says. |

i've been working on #10.. I tried running through alot of the famous Presidental phrases I could think of: Ask not what your country can do for you... A date which will live in infamy... The only thing we have to fear.... etc... But no luck so far. |

Just sent my vote in for tribal council by the way. Its obvious who I voted for of course. Any interest in stating who you voted for when you send in the vote to help keep a voting track record? I promise no hard feelings for votes my way if you vote me.
If I or St.cronin end up a wolf, it could buy you more trust if we know before the fact/result. (not sure if we'll have a way to verify if someone is a wolf or not, but we never know what future challenges my bring) |

I'll take that as a no then
The main reason I ask, is currently I can see us end in a 3-3 tie I can picture Path, Swaggs and St.cronin voting for me and Lathum, Sndvls and myself voting for St.cronin. I just want some accountability for in case some reward challenge down the road lets you find out the allegiance of dead people is all I wonder what happens in case of a tie though. |

I am planning to vote Cronin mainly because it sounds like he's going to have less time on his hands.

Just a note, thinking about this more.. with Mr.W being killed last night, it seems pretty clear someone wants me dead badly. Being put up for this vote, having Mr.W night killed to remove the helsing majority from this tribe. I've been debating if this tells me anything more about Cronin, but decided it doesn't. I think Cronin even if he lives here will be the #1 suspect for an Oz conversion kill (even if I think it just as likely that ardent might have been that person). I think Mr.W's death does spell volumes for what the wolves think of me though. |

I've only been able to spend about 15 minutes on this challenge so far, but man, this is tough. In number 4, I can make out Maximum football, but then I'm wondering what the other letters are, not Daivd Winter or anything like that. I'm thinking it may be another huge thread title? Any ideas as to what that might be? I tried to search just large threads but I need a keyword for it to work, so that wasn't much help.
