  1. The universality of these names is too debatable for it to be a distinction in this case. As for her never being the protagonist, surely you're not forgetting the game Super Princess Peach?
  2. Good guess, but Princess Toadstool is never one either. She is as Princess Peach or Peach, which would make your answer correct, though not what I was looking for in this case.
  3. Mario, Princess Toadstool, Link, Zelda, Samus Who doesn't belong in this group and why? I posted a similar one earlier, but it was too obscure. I like this one better.

    You must be tired, you missed them all

    Wait a minute, it's not settled. What's the term for making type bold? If there is one that is...
  6. Just to beat a dead horse: we have 2 issues: 1) Hades = Pluto? and 2) why no Earth? 1) According to Wikipedia Hades was also called Pluto http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hades in Greek. Nothing is said about having to convert names from Roman to Greek (i.e. Uranus is Greek) 2) Earth is simply not the name of a God. It was named before the God naming convention of Planets took place. It is derived from a number of languages including Old English. If it were named after a God (therefore fitting all common naming conventions with the other planets) we would live on Planet Terra or Planet Gaia
  7. Oh and thanks for the link to the page that is in another language...
  8. Wow. Read my posts before spouting off please. The Earth problem you have should be answered at least twice by now so read the posts over carefully. For your recurring Hades problem: to repeat, I used the ORIGINAL SOLAR SYSTEM. If I used the current solar system (which is not entirely agreed upon as far as dwarf planets go), it would have been not only too difficult to solve, but a very messy setup... any other complaints?

    For #5 being an echo: an echo can sometimes repeat and get fainter and fainter until it dies out. I like the fart answer, though I'm sure that wasn't intended.
  10. Nope. He is the main character of the game Ninja Gaiden, which is a Nintendo game

    I like this one, but it doesn't work well when it's written. I wonder if there's a way to write this so it has no flaws...

    We can't know the color of the stairs. Just because it is a one-story house does not mean that there aren't stairs somewhere. It just means that there are not stairs that connect two or more (non-existent) stories of that particular house. In fact, given the entire question we should assume that there are stairs somewhere in the house because the question implies their existence.

    Me too. We don't have those fancy toothpaste stores by me
  14. OK, but the 2 28 is right at the start of the sequence so I would think that it couldn't be overlooked too easily.
  15. Mario, Princess Toadstool, Link, Zelda, Ryu Hayabusa, Solid Snake, Samus Which name does not belong and why?

    Can you please clarify the parts I emboldened? On another note, is emboldened the proper way to say that?
  17. itachi-san

    Neither, because it has no punctuation. Therefore it is just four words in a row

    But you can't read something if you don't understand it. Illiterate people can't read and therefore can't re-read. The OP should have just said 'stand still while the bees pass.'

    hehe, nice. Solid Snake (Snake Pliskin) is the character from the Metal Gear video games. He's way cooler than Tom Cruise could ever hope to be.
  20. Now I'm curious. How did you get the answer if you didn't know the pattern?
