Same Sounding

Question

Meant just for good fun, like one from before.

Solve the five below, and then there is more.

Smaller in a sense, yet off the charts I can be.

Most common of man or deserted possibly.

Sometimes they'll listen, so get it off you should.

From me you would surely escape if you could.

Since no belly-aching's allowed, and he also cant fight.

We're hard to resist because the prices so right.

Found if taken over a period of time.

Make opinions count, like how 'bout this rhyme?

Similar to Eve just is not so poetic.

Served with haste, short and phonetic.

To begin the next step, a key you will need.

Entitling you to, the final answer indeed.

plasmid got #5, but I don't get it. Is the answer "night"? And if so, how's it served with haste?

I'm not trying to be picky, just I'm looking at the answers (island, rate, night) to see if that sparks any ideas for the last two.

3. Buffet?

Overall: Vacation resort?

You need to read down further in his post.

isle for #1 (as in deserted isle or Isle of Man) and nite for #5 (Eve as evening then nite as a less poetic, hasty (shortened), and phonetic version of night)

Oh, I didn't see that post. I saw the post where he first guessed it.

So I guess buffet was wrong... how about "steal"?

A guess for later down the road:

Attach "F" to the beginning of the words, so

Isle > File

Rate > Fate

Nite > Fight

Er, but then you would have made "night" the answer rather than "nite."

So... try again with B! Bile, bait, bite.

Or maybe, find things that can go in front of each word, individually.

Isle > Ex

Rate > Bit

Nite > U

Or maybe there's no step like this, and I should stop looking down the road. =P
