Interesting, but still not right. Remember what I said: the link isn't just "green", but " Different senses in which the word 'green' is used." For example, 'green' can be used as an adjective meaning either 'eco-friendly' or 'envious'. |

Well then it's got to be eco-friendly/hunter/envious/hurt which all signify green. Though I have no idea why... Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jul 23 2012, 03:10 PM.

envious/eco-friendly/color/murray: green Andy Murray is a reference to tennis and the green on the court. |

Nope. The last word isn't just a vague reference to 'green'. It's another sense in which the word 'green' can be used. |

Colour/Envious/Eco-Friendly/Tapes I might as well use my fina l guess today, too: Colour/Envious/Eco-friendly/Regis Both are for the "green" combo. |

Lynch/Murray/Hunter/Darling/Hurt - all are surnames. Need examples? Simon Lynch (Scottish-Canadian footballer), Andy Murray, Dale Hunter (former hockey player, a real gimp too), David Darling (classical musician), John Hurt (actor). BOOM.Eco-Friendly/Envious/Colour/Pan - green... "Pan" is for "Pan-African." Green is one of the three Pan-African colours. |

I'll allow the first one as an invented combo, since it doesn't contain any main combo as a subset. There is a main combo that has something to do with surnames, but it's more specific than that. The second one isn't correct - I can't remember whether it's already been tried or not .

Eco-friendly/envious/hurt/colour - it's GREEEEEEEEEEEEN ![]() Tapes/Pan/Regis/blank - all can have "try" added to them. |

First guess is incorrect - this 'green' combo is proving to be a nuisance! Second guess, however, is correct .

I'm more tempted to go FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF over the first one than YAY about the second. I think just about everything has been guessed for green.

I almost was going to say blank for that one too... *beats head on table* I think we've covered all the names/surnames Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jul 24 2012, 12:06 AM.

Is the "green" combo: Eco-Friendly/Envious/Colour/Surname EDIT: There's only 19 words, so the answer to my question is no. Edited by Pyrite, Jul 24 2012, 11:15 AM.

Darn, was going to say the same thing but I had to wait 24 hours to do it... Great job getting another 50 points because I know now for sure that is the combo. I don't know anything else, and my will is gone, so I'm done here. Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jul 24 2012, 11:02 AM.

Plus, in the one where you add "try" you can theoretically add "try" to a blank space and make it a word. |

I like it! I'll give you 30 points for that one (the normal 20, plus 10 bonus points). |

Murray/Leonidas/Lynch/Hunter: all relate to Quidditch in Harry Potter -Eunice Murray is a Quidditch player (Montrose Magpies) -Georgina Leonidas plays Katie Bell as a Quidditch player in the Harry Potter films -Aidan Lynch is a Quidditch player (Irish National Quidditch Team) -Hunter is an old term for "seeker" Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Jul 26 2012, 10:39 AM.

Good invented combo . Stick with Georgina Leonidas, because she'll show up again in the main combo. |

Murray/Hunter/Leonidas/Lynch: all are cast members who play characters in Harry Potter films -Evanna Lynch = Luna Lovegood -Georgina Leonidas = Katie Bell -Devon Murray = Seamus Finnegan -Kathryn Hunter = Arabella Figg Probably wrong because you said to keep one for the main combo, and this is the same as my last, but so far that's all I got.

Reasoning is correct, but I can't allow the combo, because two of those are used in the fifth combo (which would then leave one word on the wall unused). |
