0 Guest Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 bodies may have colours in thair names too. Land? Land masses are colored bodies when viewed from space. And some have colors in their names, like "Greenland". Alternatively, bodies of water are colored as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 grey cells Posted September 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Something to do with fruit? "U R solving it really fast" and "Colored bodies will come last" ?? But that line doesn't reveal any letter. But nevertheless a good try. Yeah! The Colored Bodies part yields a letter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's your alternative answer, think of something specific. aha almost had it, but he said colored bodies (of water...) so the red sea, the black sea.... letter here is C. so "When I'm heard I'm half the size I am ten, and also five. Ten to start, and a wee - X _ ? Another rhymes - 4th of key - D Chessman broken not a daughter 1/4 first and last 3/4- N U R solving it really fast Colored bodies will come last - C" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 andromeda Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 hint... whats a different type of large body of water? The thing is that It has to be a ten letter word but when you pronounce it you kinda only hear five. And it's a word that ends with ______nsea? So all we have to do is find the beginning of the word? All of these are just more questions!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 grey cells Posted September 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 I do not know what you people are driving at. All of your answers are just illogical guesses. <_< Yay! Well done folks. It is Expediency!(XPDNC) Kudos to starfish for revealing the answer. Kudos to Raven for putting most of it together. Kudos to Andro for never giving up(You can have your vacation now ). Kudos to CL for finding the first letter. Kudos to WW and Impervious for helping find out 2 more letters. Kudos to everyone who tried. You can trade your kudos points with Bona as Phil O'Sophy would say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
