For the last few years, @ApocalypseNowt has posted the quiz from her workplace. Surely it's time for this year's joint MN effort...?

If you use the code
Circle = 1 side
Triangle = 3 sides
Square = 4 sides

It spells PROGRAM ME WHERE VAMPIRE DUCK DEBUTED

So the answer is Dangermouse

Good work team Grin

Think I have 2 more which I'll bob on tomorrow

Mince3141 · 18/12/2024 19:49

I'm astonished at how good you all are at a) recognising cartoons and b) solving puzzles

WitcheryDivine · 19/12/2024 00:07

That kids tv one was hard! Do you work at gchq @ApocalypseNowt - if you do there are a few people you should be recruiting on this thread!

ApocalypseNowt · 20/12/2024 10:39

Nothing like GCHQ @WitcheryDivine (unfortunately!).

Here are your last 3 puzzles :)

Thanks, @ApocalypseNowt , I'm loving these
I've worked out the answer to the songs one as Mariah Carey - will have a crack at the other two later.

P00hsticks · 20/12/2024 17:51

And the missing vowels answer is 'Die Hard'

Mince3141 · 20/12/2024 21:38

Just been working them out too and got the same. Pretty sure we did the diehard one already because I recognised the quote and I don't remember seeing the film 🤣

Mince3141 · 20/12/2024 21:53

The other one seems to be:
mordor. Soul. Mind
? Blur. maybe a darts player

Clue is neverending (8,6)

Colours around them are rainbow order which is probably entirely irrelevant but you never know.

Red isn't Mordor, it's from The Matrix
Orange - I agree, Soul
Yellow - I agree, Mind
Green - Red, but is the shape relevant?
Blue - I think the band is Space
Purple (Indigo/Violet?) is Phil 'The Power' Taylor

Rainbow does seem to be relevant, and is incomplete with only 6 colours. This could be linked to the 'Neverending'. Or it could fe a red herring 😂

MarmiteWine · 20/12/2024 22:32

Red - specifically Zion, from The Matrix

MarmiteWine · 20/12/2024 22:34

Is it something to do with chakras? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Oooh sorry! I did wonder if I'd already posted one of those but I was rushing and couldn't be arsed to check 😂

Infinite Scroll?

P00hsticks · 20/12/2024 23:08

It's 'Infinity Stones' (I'd never heard of them but apparently it something to do with Marvel Universe).

Reality (from the Matrix) Soul (movie) Mind (Charity Logo)
Time (magazine) Space (band) Power (Phil 'THe Power' Taylor)
