Fun game from Class

[Plaidman]

So we did a little puzzle game at end of class that really made one think. Its meant to looking at things differently. Basically using letter and numbers for clues to the meaning.

EXAMPLE:

4 W on a C: 4 Wheels on a Car
13 O C: 13 Original Colonies:

Now, lets see what you guys can get.

1: S W and the 7 D
2: I H a D by MLK
3: 2 P's in a P
4: HDD (TMRUTC)
5: 3 S to a T
6: 100 P in a D
7: T no PLH
8: 4 Q in a G
9: I a SWAA
10: 50 S in TU

And yes, each of these should be well known, even for those outside the US. The only one I had problems with was 4 and 9. It seems that those 2, plus 7 are tge hardest, but you'll kick yourself once you learn the answer.

Made my answers invisible so other people don't have to see before they try. Highlight to read.

1: S W and the 7 D - Snow White and the Seven Dwarves
2: I H a D by MLK - I Have a Dream by Martin Luther King(, Jr.)
3: 2 P's in a P - Two Peas in a Pod
4: HDD (TMRUTC) - Hickory Dickory Dock (The Mouse Ran Up the Clock)
5: 3 S to a T - Three sides to a triangle
6: 100 P in a D - 100 pennies in a dollar
7: T no PLH - There's No Place Like Home
8: 4 Q in a G - Four quarts in a gallon
9: I a SWAA - It's a Small World After All
10: 50 S in TU - Fifty States in the Union

Yep to all! Good Job.

I know they were easy, but still. I couldn't come up with 4 and 9, and I had a extra ten minutes then you did.

I actually got stuck on #10, but for the others, I have a little kid, so I'm a little more exposed to those things than most people. ::

Urk. I couldn't even get past the first one without cruelly twisting it into some joke.

1: S W and the 7 D

= "Stormwind and the 7 Dwarves." I only hang out in there for the forge anyway. Darn WoW and its ... WoW'iness.

Gah! 7 is as bad as 32 D F (at W W F)

I'd say it's worse, but I didn't get that one either, but I don't use those units! They're impossible until after you get into university and have to start learning other conversion factors.
