0 plainglazed Posted May 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 For starters I'm sounding triumphant. (the start of triumphant is "tri"?) Participating in which I tell. (adding "ing" to the first syllable, maybe "trying") An emotionally uncertain primary (if you're "yellow" you're scared) and now coming back down as well. (no idea, no one syllable words come to mind) Cant see where i responded to you shakazulu. Sorry for the oversight. For some reason, havent slept much these last several days. An easy riddle, that one! On the first line you are hinking the right way for this puzzle in general but not this time. the word "first" refers to the first letter in another word in this type of POW.I know, it's unfair to put misdirection in the first line. Sorry. Line three right concept wrong color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am at work and even under normal circumstances it's hard for me to multi-task. Line 3 color. one of the descriptors suggests what you might do with it....

0 plainglazed Posted May 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Think I understand where you are coming from on line one.first part of "horn"?Sorry, "starters" in this case is a misdirection. I need help in understanding line 2 but the answer is not where I'm coming from. Line 3 needs more work (right but not entirely right) Line 4 has a meaning as well.

0 plainglazed Posted May 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Shot/Gun/Buzz/Horn Play Red Fall I can see that game really got to you. Understand why you cant get it out of your head even if it's all subliminal. Nothing to do with this puzzle if you are trying to make it fit. Line 3 "red" is right but needs more work? "uncertain" was supposed to refer to shy, embarrassed, blushing primary. the adverb "emotionally" tells what to do with it? Of all the lines this one I felt was the biggest stretch but now it's the one all are pinging on. Go figure literal interpretation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What part tells you to mix it up? HINT]I've used this type of POW elsewhere in this riddle but not in this line. As for the other info in your spoilerWon as unfinished Line 1 answer.
