Click "Post Reply", type it, then highlight the bits you want to put a spoiler on and hit the spoiler button.
Sorry if the "hint" is a bit too tricky, it's hard to give a nudge on this card without giving the game away completely. |

Ah ok, I get it now. I was clicking quick reply and and not getting all the lovely options like there is above while im typing this message.
Spoiler: (highlight to read) I have WEAN DOUR NINE BONY KING RAVE as the 6 words. And i know, as dogfish83 pointed out, that i have to "bridge" them together to make some sense of it, So "WEAN DOUR" becomes "we and our" but i cant put them together in a way that makes any sense!!! |

Always bear in mind...
Spoiler: (highlight to read) There's more than one order to write the words out! Although the correct sequence does indeed begin the way you have started...

Spoiler: (highlight to read) Yeah my problem is the order of the words. Is every word a real word. For example, the answer page says the answer is without puncuation. So im thinking the nine breaks down in to

From memory you didn't need to remove any punctuation because there wasn't any!
As a small help, whilst all of the words are real, a couple of them aren't exactly what you'd call everyday words... But keep trying different combinations of rave, bony etc and you'll get there eventually! |

Probably. I would concentrate on Spoiler: (highlight to read) trying to form something that looks like a phrase or sentence (you're looking for a message, remember), As dogfish says, some of the words are not exactly common usage. (Again remember: this is an artifact from an archaeological dig!) It's difficult to say much more without giving it away. From your earlier posts, you're extremely close! |

Spoiler: (highlight to read) OK. Im still lost. Could someone give me the specific order of the remaining 4 words [king rave bony nine] and I will work from there. I am completly getting no where with this puzzle. I've been looking at it for weeks and weeks now and I just cant figure it out. I've just decided that on this occasion I've been bettered by the puzzle setter!!! |

Hope this is cryptic enough and doesn't give too much away. Spoiler: (highlight to read) You're first word has too many letters, your second word has too few letters, your third word has too few letters and is actually the fourth word, your fourth word is in the wrong direction and isn't actually there but contains part of two other words! |

OK back again. This is what I have based on the clues above
Spoiler: (highlight to read) wean dour king rave enin bony or Spoiler: (highlight to read) wean dour king enin rave bony which becomes Spoiler: (highlight to read) we and our kin something something something Does anyone care to actually push me in the right direction? I know its one of those things where, as soon as I see the answer I'll think "Oh, but of course" but at the monent I may as well be a small dog looking at a jigsaw who just decided to chew the pieces and go outside for a run because i dont know what else to do!!!! |
