Puzzleria!s Riffing Off Shortz And Ellis Slices read:
ENTREE #1
Name a puzzle-maker and his hometown, in 6, 5 and 7 letters..
Rearrange them, along with the last letter of the puzzle-maker’s hometown, to spell the a 4-letter word for “a slovenly or rude person.”
The 9 letters that remain can be anagrammed to spell the 5-letter surname of a 20th-Century Swedish actress and a 4-letter adjective describing the actress that contains a 2-word embedded greeting.
Who are this puzzle-maker, his hometown , the 3 syllables that sound like letters, the word for the slovenly, rude person, the surname of the actress, and the adjective?

QUESTIONS?
ReplyDeleteEntree 1 says to take the "last three syllables" of the puzzle-maker’s first name, but the name Robbie only has two syllables. Did you mean the last three letters? If so, the math doesn't work. You start with 18 letters, then use four to spell a slovenly person, and then have "nine letters that remain"? Are you supposed to delete the first three letters of Robbie, so that you start with 15 rather than 18? Even if so, after using four to spell a slovenly person, you'd still have eleven, not nine.
DeleteThank you, Nodd. Great editing! I really appreciate it. I tinkered with my my Entree #1 text and, thanks to and because of you, it may now make sense!
DeleteLegoWhoFanciesHimselfAsAn"Editor"ButWhoIs(IfTruthBeTold)ActuallyMoreOfAn"Editee!"
This comment has been removed by the author.
Delete"Middle name" in the revised version should be "last name," and IS from the second syllable of the last name has to be pronounced as ESS.
DeleteAgain (and, as usual!), Nodd is correct. It is Ellis (LAST name, not MIDDLE name... Robbie, for all we know, may not even have a middle name!) Divide this surname into ELL + IS... but pronounce "IS" with sibilance (not in a "zeezilly!" manner) and treat the "I" in "IS" as if you might treat a schwa (in other words, barely pronounce it at all!)

ReplyDeleteThink of a word associated with a famous battle. Drop the last letter and read backwards to get my hint for one of this week's puzzles.
DeleteThank you, Paul. You have always had a knack for conjuring and then contributing clever hints. I (and, I am sure, others who frequent our blog) appreciate them.
DeleteAlso, Paul, if you have any puzzle or puzzles you want to send my way, please do do. I would love to share them on P! (We could "package it/them along with that "Pauzzle logo" I had once slapped together, or I could perhaps create a "classier" logo.

SUNDAY HINTS FOR ENTREES 2-7:
Delete2. One university is in NJ, the other in D.C.
3. The U.K. school is fictional.
4. A prince and a queen.
5. Might need orthodontia for one word associated with teeth.
6. A Rhodes Scholar politician, or a WWII general.
7. Remove a letter from the Midwest college, get a cigarette.
Got #2 and #3 with the hints, don't know how much longer the keyboard will go. Had to reboot this thing a SECOND time as I was doing a cryptic on the Guardian website! Hope it's no problem with that site, primarily. It's frozen twice on that one!
DeleteAlso, cannot solve the latest Sunday Puzzle challenge. Only game I know that involves transportation is basketball, because there's occasionally "travelling".(Or should it be "traveling" with just the one L? The Brits use two, I know, but I think we use just the one. Anyhow, haven't got that one yet. Just thought you might like to know about that one.)

Fighting intensely with Nodd's hints, I finally managed to eke out the answers to 3, 6 and 7. But 2, 4, and 5 elude me. I don't know how everyone else does it. There are just still WAAAY too many possiblities, and no matter how much I google and hunt, I still can't find these colleges. The #2 NJ ones should have been easy for me, since my brother and I went to two of them. But I can't make anything work.
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteVT, in #2 the actor was Dutch and famously played an android in 1982. The NJ school is the alma mater of a Pulitzer-winning novelist whose last name is an anagram of a Norse deity. The D.C. school is the alma mater of a recent presidential candidate.
DeleteIn #4, the Southern U.S. college is almost the oldest in the U.S.
In #5, the four letters you remove from each name spell the first name of a Dickens heroine who is usually referred to as "Little."
Re Entree #1: Not Greta? Because that's the first actress I thought of there. BTW The name in #5 would also be known by a certain D. Do-Right, while we're mentioning cartoon characters much like in the Slice hint.
DeletepjbJustNowGotTheAppetizerAsHe'sBeenTypingHisSignoff,OddlyEnough(Ironically,ACharacterInOneOfHisComicStrip-A-DayCalendarsIsActuallyDoingTheActivityToday,ThoughNotLiterally,AccordingToThePhrase!)
Just got #4! Spoiler alert: you only need to rearrange the letters in one of the two colleges/universities, because the other one simply becomes part of the third name AS IS! Being a Steely Dan fan, I should've picked up on this one much sooner!
DeletepjbIsProbablyNeverGoingBackToHisOldSchoolAnyTimeSoonEither!
Found one capital city that becomes another word when you remove the "til", but I don't think the word could be used to describe the "maximum population". I looked it up, and it actually means "full of holes". Lego, I think I may need further clarification about the city in question. Will explain my findings Wednesday.
DeletepjbHopesYou'llCommentBeforeThen,SoHeWon'tHaveToWait"Til" Then!
A hint for you, PJB, since Nodd is being so generous with his hints to help me: I referred, down in "My Progress," to the fact that the Hors D'O this week has a sneaky element....and implied that he has used this same 'trick' on us before (several times, in fact, if I recall correctly.) So rethink your hunt for a capital city! I shall say no more.
DeleteThank you, Nodd, I finally got through all your entrees. #5 worked out well, because my cousin went to one of the colleges, so I caught on immediately with this last hint.
DeletePJB's comment, above, about #4 helped me pin down the New England private college, and then I finally understood your original hint.
As for the infamous #2, well, I had already had BOTH the correct universities picked out, but since I have never remotely heard of the supposedly famous actor, there would have been no hope of my EVER solving it. [However, the NJ school was NOT one that either my brother or I went to.]
PUZZLE RIFFS!
ReplyDeleteMY PROGRESS SO FAR...
ReplyDeleteBetter luck for me this week than last with Lego's puzzles; the only one I do NOT have is the Slice [which I gave a really hard try.) I thought the Schpuzzle was very clever; as always, I would like to envision how Lego stumbled upon it! And the Hors D'O was rather 'sneaky', but Lego has done this sort of thing to us before!
DeleteWill await Nodd's entree hints, as usual, because otherwise they are not possible (also as per usual.). I have never once known what any of Paul's hints have meant.
Agreed that the puzzles this week seem easier. I have answers for everything but Entrees #3 and #6. First time in a long time that I solved most of the puzzles pre hint.
DeleteThanks for that honest feedback, ViolinTeddy and Tortitude. It seems I may need to dial-up my "puzzle-difficulty-quotient" a skosh! You two, and the other regulars who frequent this blog, are just too darn smart!
DeleteLegoDownDumbingWhenheOughtToBeUpWising!
Hello? This is the second time my keyboard has started working, and I don't know how long this is going to last. I've solved the Slice, the Dessert, and Entrees #1, #5, and #7. Due to the weather in our state late last night going into this morning, Mom and I did not eat out. We managed to not be one of the many here in Jasper who were without power as a result(thank God somebody's looking out for us!). Just now I found an article online about how to try and fix my keyboards problem. I guess it took having to reboot the thing, but it appears to be working again(for now, anyway). Next up I will probably try the Quiptic puzzle on the Guardian website, which shows up every Saturday evening around 6:00pm our time. Wish me luck!

Oh, Lego. NO NO NO...I was NOT trying to encourage you to make your puzzles HARDER. It was a JOY to be able to actually some most of them. (Last week was awful for me.). Nodd's are too hard already. I reach a point where I just give up, and if I had to do that every week, I might as well not even bother reading the site anymore!
DeleteOkay, thanks, VT. I shall endeavor to achieve a happy medium... not too tough, not too easy, but just right!

Between the hurricane and my keyboard malfunctioning, I never did check the calendar for any doctor's appointments coming up this month(though I knew there was something coming up, and I should have checked earlier already). Then last night around thirteen minutes after 9:00pm, my Mom told me I had an appointment this afternoon at 2:00pm. So I had to hurry up eating supper, and immediately take a shower, and do a little laundry! But I got it all done, and I went today, and got lunch from Wendy's afterward, and took out the garbage(Monday being a holiday, obviously), and finally I got my answers here just now! Hope everybody's ready for my next cryptic crossword tomorrow night!
