Aww! Next time you do that, ting-a-ping to watch out for those tiny humming bird eggs! (love those ones, don't want to miss) Nice one ;-)
And the same interleaving clues would also eliminated the answer. I'm not sure I've been able to explain properly why "wife" had to be eliminated in an unqualified (/flat) manner, lets leave it. A marginally tricky puzzle , eh
I think you got too attached to "remove", a word that can be used in more than one sense. I was using it in the sense of 'distance'. A random google scan produced this hit: This is from the Vincent Cable's article in The Times: "All bankers’ remuneration packages greater than the Prime Minister’s — say £200,000 — should be publicly declared, just as directors’ are. Like MPs and BBC executives, bankers depend, albeit at one remove, on the taxpayer and should not be allowed to hide what they earn." The meaning in this sense is: " the degree of difference separating one person, thing, or condition from another". The second argument re: 'contributing' clue' vs. 'participating clue' does not apply unless 'remove' is used in its very literal sense, but setting that aside for the moment, the presiding judge has this to say: very devious argument counselor, but since you had already been advised to deal with the clues 'independently', manipulations on one clue do not affect those on the other. If clues a and b both appear to suggest 'wife' it is possible for one to be right and the other wrong. Verdict: Appeal Denied! Back to dungeons with Ms. Aria! Bailifffffff ....!!!! PS: Don't worry, we'll all chip in for some gruel & straw. console1
A very diabolical adjudicator! Is internet included as privation, you see, I need to track someone's movements when I'm released from gaol to --<
Can't tell what Image-3 is - beach? clouds? satellite pic? Also need clearer instructions .... each clue a word? Fragment? Sound? Syllable? By the way, who is she?
Well, so it seemed at the time. I was of course trying to make it a bit more challenging for you, what with the finger-wagging complaint 'bout the previous puzzle 'n all, but if I were to do it over, I would at least include an example for clue deconvolution.
Yes, I reamed wide and deep into "remove". Birdlimed by the huntsman! Whoa whoa, never heard this phrase before! Interesting articles with this usage. Would six degrees of separation have been too much for the yankee hipster to condign on this perplexed ingenue?
Well, not intentionally included as privation, but I hear the signal strength is not very good deep in the dungeons - sum'n to do wit dem rocks 'n stone 'n mud 'n earth 'n stuff!
Clues are ALL Syllable as in "Name is spelled in the pictorial representation of the clue" Fragment as in "Trivia inserted in one clue" (not too obscure, a google search reveals) Sounds as in "homonymous, synonymous, paronymous to picture in the clue" (is of the same same same degree not *at one remove*) (not necessarily in that order)
