Re: Is It a Hint or Not?
What would be the cat's whiskers would be to make a simple but polite request for a game hint using cryptic (and PG rated) images for making such a request.

Andrew, sometimes there's nothing sweeter than karma. Edit: response to Andrew's post below - bee's knees and cat's whiskers = height of excellence. Probably at that time, the crystal radio and use of the cat's whisker was innovative and new, thus - a standard or height of excellence. If you think about it, innovation is not necessarily permanent - that's why so much value is placed on innovation. It drives change, exploration, and development. cat's pajamas = daring and new (Apparently, around the 1920s, they were daring and new.) I could have said: eel's ankles - but that would open another can of worms in the water game department elephant's instep - would probably fall flat here in CD and then we have - snake's hip - I have nooooo idea... that one is a little hard to grasp. I rather thought cat's whiskers was a great pun in a couple of areas. ![]() Last edited by JaneYoung : 08-12-2009 at 17:35. Reason: additional idioms |

I've heard "the cat's meow" before but never "cat's whiskers". According to freedictionary.com it means "to be better than everyone else." Well, color me confused. Jane, I am now way over my 'things learned today' quota. |

Re: Is It a Hint or Not?
No I think that is just a basket with a cat's head in it...
So a guillotine game.... eh? R |

Re: Is It a Hint or Not?
Well, the cat is in a basket. That's the main object of the picture (besides the lolcat, but that's obvious). So I'm guessing that's significant. We'll be placing, and therefore scoring, game pieces into "baskets" that can be picked up and moved. So like a movable scoring area (sort of like last year, only more manual transportation). Placing these baskets on a high area will receive bonus points (the lolcat is on top of a shelf). That's my guess. But this isn't really an official hint, and the real hints aren't much help anyways

Re: Is It a Hint or Not?
What you really need to ask yourself when you look at this "hint" is "Why am I in this basket? And where are you taking me?" because that's what you get with so called clues like this...

Re: Is It a Hint or Not?
I swear there's a watermark behind that lolcat. Somebody with better software than me care to do some in-depth analysis?

Re: Is It a Hint or Not?
You're all missing some very critical points:
1. Cat's don't like water -- therefore it's not a water game.Quite obvious when you look at all the facts. |
