Redactle - THE HINTS THREAD

[BIWI]

Given how difficult it is to offer hints for redactle, without giving it away/being too obvious, this is a specific thread for hints.

Doesn't mean that they should give the game away, but it just stops other players seeing the hint every time they access the main thread.

So from now on, just keep your stats and general comments on the main thread and come here for any hints!

I'm unashamedly looking for hints. I know what type of 'thing ' it is, but need clues for the specifics. Can anyone help?

Hm....

See if this helps ...

The other half of the thing might have been at home on S&B

I googled once I had one piece of information. A bit of paint by numbers.

Any chance of something less cryptic?

Ok.... well I think this may be too much of a giveaway.

👠 👠 👠 👠 👠 👠 👠 👠 👠 👠 👠 👠 .....

That's my first thought for a clue!

@ErrolTheDragon thank you!

That did give it away very nicely, but I was barking up completely the wrong tree, so would not have got it without!

I think I was barking up the same tree MrsElm!

Thanks Errol for putting me out of my misery!

So many words in but still can't get yesterday, someone put me out of my misery! 😫

@alloutofcareunits

The pertinent bit of info that made it googleable for me was

Philippines

@InMySpareTime thanks! Got it with one minute to go 😂 I was so close but just couldn't finish! 👍🏻

Stumped already on this new one - hardly getting any hits and still no clue as to the general subject area!

Anyone got further?

Nope. I'm struggling on this. My stats will be crap!

@LittlePickleHead @MsMarvellous

If you're MN regulars this hint might work.

It's a subject favoured by badkitten

Hmm I already put the bad kitten key word in but I'll try something more specific...

Try the medium it happens in

Thanks. That was painful 😭. I googled suspected search terms once I worked out one piece of info!

I'm trying all the mediums I can think of! It feels like I am missing something 😕

Finally found a phrase I could Google!

Bloody hell I still can't get it and confused by the medium clue?!

Got it. What a stinker

@LittlePickleHead the medium clue went with the previous clue, and only makes sense if you know what badkitten does.

It is a highly specific piece about the subject that OhYouBadBadKitten posts about. Would you like a PM @LittlePickleHead? It's so specific I can't think of a general clue that might give it away to anyone else!

Yes I worked it out, I just clearly have no idea about this subject area behind the very obvious 😂
