LadyEllen -> cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 5:56:46 AM)

Simple rules, but the more devious the question (and answer) the better. A real test of who's bright in the CM membership!

Solve the clue, and then post another cryptic question.

Example;
Fete is highly compulsive after taking an E (6 letters)
Answer; fetish
(Fete is h.... - take an E = fetish)

So, question number one

1) Longevity of MI6 man restricts him somewhat (7 letters)

E




SweetlyTwisted -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 6:27:47 AM)

I'm not sure I understand this and I definitely don't have a clue on the first question. I was wondering if my thinking is right.
"candy is sweeter than you ......equals candidate"
Am I right?

Ok, still thinking about this question.
Longish ????

Hi Sweetly

you're on the right lines - you have to play with the words - could be alternative meanings for them, anagrams and all sorts.

A question with the answer "candidate" might be

"Why is I on this sweet romantic encounter? I'm the nominee"

Nominee = candidate
sweet = candy
romantic encounter = date
y (why) is i, so candy becomes candi
candidate

The answer to question one is something most everyone here will have done. Split it up and I'm sure you'll get the answer;

Who is the MI6 man?
What is longevity?

SweetlyTwisted -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 6:54:37 AM)

Lady,
Thank you for the quick response. I think I need to consume another cup of coffee before I tackle the first question again.



SweetlyTwisted -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 7:10:38 AM)

Cumming is my final answer to the first question.

The MI6 man wa Mansfield Cumming.
Longevity is length of service.
You cum from being serviced.

I need to go clean the house which does not take some much brain work.
Thanks for the challenge. Hope others can figure out your question.
~ST~

Hi Sweetly

I dont think anyone is going to try apart from you - thanks for trying though!

Its honestly not that complicated, its a single word, seven letters.
E



siouxie -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 8:16:02 AM)

nope. i have been trying yo figure this one out since i first read it today. i still can't. i'm probably reading too deeply into it - i tend to do that.



LadyEllen -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 9:16:15 AM)

OK  - I'll put you out of your misery!

1) Longevity of MI6 man restricts him somewhat (7 letters)

Longevity = age
MI6 man - James Bond

Bond-age (restricts him somewhat)

Now another;

2) Sounds like Charles beats his chest; it prevents orgasm (2 words, first word 8 letters, second word 4 letters)

E



siouxie -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 9:24:09 AM)

ah - i knew it was bond, wasn't thinking along those lines though.

chastity belt?



LadyEllen -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 9:39:37 AM)

Siouxie - wonderful! You've got it!

Charles = Chas
beats his chest = titty belt (I know!)

how about this one;

3) One cooped up who joins the dawn chorus is made to suffer, along with a sporting object.
4 words; 4 letters, 3 letters, 4 letters, 7 letters

E



Rumtiger -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 10:56:26 AM)

I thought Bond was OHMSS? not MI6? Sorry I just dont remember MI6 being mentioned in any bond films i've seen.

Cock and ball torture

is it telephone? not sure if they're all bdsm related or not. afraid i'm not up to making a new one, sorry to ruin the point of the game.



BitaTruble -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 4:01:00 PM)

Nope, not a telephone, but yes.. it is BDSM related. :)

Celeste



LadyEllen -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 4:32:47 PM)

does it end in -ix?

I'm just thinking, ends in digits, and its also nine in Roman numerals, as the end to canine from the dogs bit....

Give me a clue please! I'm good at these, and I'm struggling!

E



siouxie -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/22/2006 7:38:48 PM)

obedience? don't know how it fits, but it is 9 letters!



BitaTruble -> RE: cryptic clues game (9/23/2006 12:15:58 AM)

Ok, here's a clue:

See, don't look.. dogs speak in barks but this is not woof. The silver is crossed, as the old saying goes.. but not vexed don't ya know. ;)

Thought I'd go ahead and answer this before it gets so far down it gets completely lost!

See = C
Dogs speak = ruffs, so C the dogs speak = cruffs

We are not = take away the R from 'cruffs' leaving you with cuffs

Silver holders = palms.. as in, cross the palm with silver to hear your fortune

Digits = fingers ..

Palm + fingers = hand

Hand + cuffs = handcuffs

;)
