Moving farther away from your original proposed combo. Don't think in terms of "things." It's one specific thing, though the word itself can have different meanings. |

So, Long / Emotion / Memory / Place is automatic on the red wall. I really don't know what the reasoning as. Total guess: a party. |

Actually, that's not it. I gave you the combo for "clock" without one of its original words (yours were adequate enough to consider it a combo). So the combo is different. The reasoning is getting there in meaning, but still far from what it actually is... Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Oct 10 2012, 01:17 PM.

So, it's formed from three of "Long / Emotion / Memory / Place" together with one of "Half / Twelve / Short / Hand". I'm guessing that "Long" was originally in the clock combo, and I know that "Short" is (I tried guessing "Short / Emotion / Memory / Place" and it wasn't correct). With that in mind, I'll try a brute force attack on the final combo - which will take up three of my guesses :Hand / Emotion / Memory / Place Twelve / Emotion / Memory / Place Half / Emotion / Memory / Place For each of those, my guess for the reasoning is: a date? I'm still not doing very well with it .

Close with all for the combo, but incorrect. Reasoning is wrong. You "double used" another word as well (I'll give you a clue that it was for the combo "moon"). This is probably the toughest combo. |

As close as you were before, but still incorrect. This combo is quite clever actually. Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Oct 12 2012, 02:31 PM.

I'll probably agree when I've seen it. All I know about this combo right now is that it's not at all obvious .Night / Memory / Emotion / Long? |

No, now you are moving farther away from getting it right. You were closer before. I gave some leeway to you with 2 of the combos used, which could essentially use 5 words to fill the combo with a good explanation (which is why all the words aren't being used). This one combo however is much harder than the "moon" or "clock" combos because I only see 4 words that fit, and one is unusual that you wouldn't expect.

Well, I'll put that to one side for now. I might buy a question later. I'm getting pretty stuck on everything, though. I have ideas, but nothing seems to work . Also, I think allowing main combos that were close to the intended ones has actually made it harder, because I now have to consider words that have already been used in main combos. Not something that's good or bad in and of itself; just something to keep in mind when deciding how difficult you want a wall to be. |

Yeah, I noticed that could be a problem, but I wanted to award people o thinking and I didn't know any way to do that. I also didn't want my combos to be shot down by logic, so I figured if someone had a logical way to explain it, then it could work. What I will tell you is that you can now officially eliminate the both the words "long" and "hand" as they were supposed to be in the clock combo for long/short/hand/twelve. I will get a clue up as soon as I can think of one (or two). Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Oct 12 2012, 08:02 PM.

Maybe you could give clues for some of the combos on other walls first? I did have a couple of ideas, but I couldn't find any full combos (only two or three words that would fit). |

Furry / hop / cuddle / four: Rabbits? (I can't think what 'four' would have to do with rabbits, though, other than the number of legs!) |

Correct. I would have also allowed furry/hop/cuddle/(blank). This one I present was actually the original combo, but yours works just as well (I had thought of yours as well as an acceptable answer). And yes, the four stands for four legs in this sense. Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Oct 15 2012, 01:21 AM.

Oh - I thought the blank space was only for invented combos, and there was a re-used word on the yellow wall ? I guess that leaves Lucky, Card, Bare and a re-used one, then. |

I believe I mentioned in my big wall of text that the blank could be used for a combo. The last combo does not include the word "bare" in it (for a clue). That was actually meant for the tree combo, though you gave me a better word for it. (So there are two already used words; like I said, you added one extra to the rabbit combo). EDIT: Never mind, I did not post a clue about the last combo, though I thought I did.
