nocheese | 6824 comments It's legal, Twoddle, but not what I'm looking for.

No links, though, so you've eliminated a few possibilities. (SW had already eliminated 'bon' with his attempt).

TwoddleBungler | 186 comments It's legal, Twoddle, but not what I'm looking for.

Yes I just realised that 'bon' had gone. That's why I deleted my previous post. Here are my incorrect suggestions again to help with the elimination.
Letter 'D'
Dare
Bond
Drain
D-Day


message 258: by TwoddleBungler (new)

TwoddleBungler | 186 comments Well, since single letters are allowed:

"t"
overt
let
tor
oft


message 259: by nocheese (new)

nocheese | 6824 comments it's not "t", but you have managed 3 links this time, Twoddle. It's not a single letter, it's a word.

TwoddleBungler | 186 comments Is it 'cast'?

Black
Blue
Red
Gold


message 281: by TwoddleBungler (last edited Jan 02, 2018 01:07PM) (new)

TwoddleBungler | 186 comments Wow - that's brilliant! I didn't even know about archery targets.

However, tempted as I am to give it to you, I'll trundle on with my original idea for now:-

Artificial Red - Mad Season
Black Eyes – Gallows
Fields Of Gold – Sting
Blue American – Placebo
Pink Up – Spoon

Hint
As Gordon has realised, the answer is not a single word.

Pink Up – Spoon
Golden Era – Tulku

Hints
1. not a single word
2. All answers are to be found in the dictionary

Val H. | 22142 comments Butterflies????


message 287: by TwoddleBungler (last edited Jan 03, 2018 06:33AM) (new)

TwoddleBungler | 186 comments Butterflies????
Not butterflies!

Artificial Red - Mad Season
Black Eyes – Gallows
Fields Of Gold – Sting
Blue American – Placebo
Pink Up – Spoon
Golden Era – Tulku
Scarlet Inside – Clannad
Cream – HIDE

Hints
1. Each title/artist combination gives rise to a different single word
2. All words are to be found in any decent English dictionary (no proper names)
3. No knowledge of music or musicians required
4. There's a red herring that seems to be working really well


message 288: by nocheese (new)

nocheese | 6824 comments A red, black, gold, blue, pink, golden,scarlet and cream red herring?


message 289: by TwoddleBungler (last edited Jan 03, 2018 06:53AM) (new)

TwoddleBungler | 186 comments A red, black, gold, blue, pink, golden,scarlet and cream red herring?

Yes, you could say that :-)

Pink – Aerosmith
Blue Alice – Ayria

Clue: Once you get over your initial blindness to what's going on, all will be obvious except perhaps for one. If no-one gets that last one, it will be a capital offence given all the hints I've provided!

Chide? ,,,,, although Ch is a word


message 295: by TwoddleBungler (last edited Jan 03, 2018 08:27AM) (new)

TwoddleBungler | 186 comments Yes, it wasn't just about initial letters ('initial blindness') - it was capital letters, hence my clue 'capital offence'.

All yours SW :-)


message 296: by SussexWelsh (last edited Jan 03, 2018 08:42AM) (new)

SussexWelsh | 7448 comments Ah, I see. I hadn't cottoned on to your "initial" and "capital" references at all. Cheers TB. Nice one!!
