REBUS Puzzle Game

Gargamel · 03-11-11, 11:27 PM

Rebus - A rebus (Latin: "by things") is a kind of word puzzle that uses pictures or arranged text to represent words or parts of words.

Example:

EASY

= "The Big Easy"

Rules:

1) No Pics. Only creative usage of the forum's text editor.

1.a) IF we get to a point where we can't use just text anymore, only simple drawings done by the poster could be used. (Honor System People!)

2) Only the person who answers correctly on the previous puzzle can post the next one. They can pass, opening it up to anyone, if they choose.

3) Feel free to search for Rebuses (Rebi?), but you have to manually enter it.

4) Stay within the forum content rules!

I'll go first! It'll be easy, this time.

Oops. I missed rule 3. But "I understand" was obviously the right answer, so I'll forgive myself. You'll forgive me too, it you know what's good for you.

Bort, you were right both times. Let's have another one.

30 days in a month?

frau kaleun · 03-23-11, 08:48 PM

Close, sort of.

Gargamel · 03-23-11, 08:56 PM

The only other thing i had was 30 days in a pot stuck in the mud.... but that didn't sound as elegant.

The first half is what's correct. (And the second part ain't too far off.)

Hint: it's a song title.
