Snider-man Posted January 29, 2003 Author Share Posted January 29, 2003 Wow, I can see where you got "Roc N Rope!" Good guess! But it's WRONG! No right answers yet, so we'll give you another hint. Here are two series of words. See if these help: Series 1: LINE, HEAD, STOP Series 2: DANCE, BOAT, BANK Hope this doesn't get you all mixed up. Guesses are cleared and previous guessers may take another guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snider-man Posted January 29, 2003 Author Share Posted January 29, 2003 We have a winner! Congrats to CHANNEL 2 who was able to identify the Mystery Cart - Sears' "Dare Diver" for the 2600. This cart is a rarity "5," so good job Channel 2! And here's how the game was played: It was important to identify what two words the images in my first post represented. The first was the logo for the Grateful DEAD. The other was a picture of RIVER Phoenix (as Indiana Jones in "Last Crusade"). In a later message, I gave you two lists of words as well which hinted at these Mystery Words. Using the series, you can make new words and phrases by adding those other two "hidden" words: Series 1: LINE, HEAD, STOP becomes DEADline, DEADhead, and DEADstop Series 2: DANCE, BOAT, BANK becomes RIVERdance, RIVERboat, and RIVERbank. OK< so you have the words DEAD RIVER. Well, as I often like to do, you need to anagram the letters into two other words, ALSO of a 4-letter, 5 -letter pattern. I even said "Hope this doesn't get you all mixed up." Hinting to the answer's being scrambled. Well, CHannel 2 picked up on all this and unscrambled DEAD RIVER to "DARE DIVER" - the final answer. If Channel 2 will PM his name and address, I will drop his cart into the mail. Thanks for playing! "Sniderman" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Channel 2 Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Message sent. Cool, I finally won a contest. Apart from the most pathetic collection contest that is. So, do I have to wait 90 days before I can take part in any more giveaways? I got the word list part, and interpreted 'mixed up' correctly, but at first I somehow had 'head' instead of 'dead' when I ran it through an anagram generator. I got unpromissing possibilities such as: He Arrived Hare Drive Eider Harv Hired Rave I, Everhard Vie Harder Her I Raved Hived Rear Adherer IV Even when I reallized my mistake, I almost didn't get it. Dare Diver is as random-sounding as any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snider-man Posted January 29, 2003 Author Share Posted January 29, 2003 Nope, you're free to enter any contests I hold, just as all previous winners are. I, Everhard I'm pretty sure this is a Mystique release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
