You're on the right lines, but that's not the correct group. |

Poseidon/Gala/Gibraltar/Yggdrasil: all relating to myth and legend; Yggdrasil is odd one out because it is Norse, while the others relate to Greek mythology Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jun 2 2012, 11:57 AM.

The group itself is close to a main combo, but the reasoning isn't. Have 15 points for an invented combo, though. |

Liberty/Alpine/Pure/Sky (ocean): liberty blue, alpine blue (the car you showed us), pure blue, sky blue, and even ocean blue if you consider it -blue is a color of liberty in the American flag, and in other places -blue is often referable to pure (Virgin Mary) -blue is in the sky -blue is the color of the alpine car Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jun 2 2012, 12:00 PM.

I must confess, I didn't realize I had so many different shades of blue! The ones in my combo are a bit more off the wall, though. |

I think I have it: Poseidon/Topaz/Alpine/Nanking: all vehicle models having to do with the color blue (Poseidon blue, a car, van, even boat; Topaz blue, a car; Alpine blue, another car; Nanking blue, the train on the first page); odd one out is Nanking train if you consider the other three options as a car Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jun 2 2012, 12:10 PM.

Yes, the train is Nanking blue! I like how you added the vehicles in - I think that's actually a better combo than the main one - so you can certainly have another 15 points. The main combo is slightly more general than that - there are more shades of blue than I realized, it may be helpful to go for some of the other combos first to get rid of them. Now, here's another screenshot from a Minecraft mod. Any idea which one?

Nanking/Poseidon/Alpine/Liberty: blue is used in multiple ways -Nanking: train, porcelain white/blue, Nanking flag -pure: blue in general, Mother Mary -Alpine: flowers, mountains, vehicle -Liberty: blue jeep liberty, American flag, blue represents liberty And my second guess towards the combo (I think I have two more left since two of mine were considered invented combos): alpine/liberty/nanking/sky for the same reason as above or my second reasoning which is different shades of blue Changed Poseidon to sky If you want, I can expand it: All relating to blue/different shades and multiple reasonings for blue: -Nanking: train, porcelain white/blue, Nanking flag -pure: blue in general, Mother Mary -Alpine: flowers, mountains, vehicle -Liberty: blue jeep liberty, American flag, blue represents liberty -Topaz: blue vehicle; sky blue topaz -Poseidon: blue vehicle, relating to god as an element of water/ocean -Sky: sky blue (there's also sky blue topaz; double whammy right there) -Ocean: blue, blue paint (now that's a double combo) And if all else fails, use "rain" to substitute That probably concludes my guesses for the day, I assume?

Yeah, it does. Like I said, it's probably better to go for other combos before the 'blue' one; if we concentrated on the 'blue' combo, we'd probably be here forever, because there seem to be more words to do with blue than I noticed when I made the wall - including some shades of blue that nobody's guessed yet. |

So no extra credit? 15 combo (four choices) + 15 combo (four choices) = 30 (eight choices)? I know, I'm pressing my luck...I think I know it now too... Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jun 2 2012, 12:44 PM.

Sorry, but no. Besides, we've already had an invented combo to do with blue. |

I don't think it's evident at all yet. In order to get it, we'll probably need to either eliminate some other combos first, or have another clue. |

Sorry, I was losing it. Shouldn't have been rude. Now that I've established the two clues, they can easily be deciphered in terms of shades of blue. Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jun 2 2012, 12:57 PM.

It's OK - it happens sometimes. Another clue, although I don't know how helpful this will be: ![]() Don't worry about who the man is. All that matters is what he's wearing. |

If that lost post didn't count, then I still have guesses right? I don't know... not like I'll solve anything anyway (except the combo I can't mention which I believe I know now after hearing details and deciphering two clues)

Sorry to guess this again, but I think I know it. I don't know the other combo. Powder/Nanking/Liberty/Sky: all different shades of blue -powder: light blue -Nanking: turquoise-like blue -Liberty blue: royal blue/darker blue -Sky blue: a really light blue |

Very close, but not quite right. 'Liberty' and 'Nanking' are in the same quarter, so one of those won't be in the group. |

Okay, I had a back-up guess then: All are shades of blue: -powder: light blue -pure: "main" blue -Liberty blue: royal blue/darker blue -Sky blue: a really light blue Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jun 3 2012, 09:53 AM.

"Pure" and "Liberty" are still in the same quarter. You haven't used any of the words in the top right. One of those has to be in the group. |
