DB 's Cryptic Pic Thread

[msmaggie]

It's a good thing none of us are competitive.

 

[BradBigBrain]

Here in the UK, we refer to simple mathematical challenges as 'doing sums'

the following sums have different solutions

12 x 7 = 84

12 + 7 = 19

12 - 7 = 5

there, I did my sums!

I didn't get 9 though?

Oops .... keyboard error with the 9 -- should have been 19... I didn't know that it was referred to doing sums. My bad.

I am truly sorry I hijacked your thread, DB.

4. Some like it hot -msmaggie

A few rules
1. You can guess as many times as you want for each pic. there are absolutely no time limits. BUT.... you must only guess ONCE per post.

2. NO EDITING of posts.

3. In the event of a tie time-wise, any mis-spellings or omissions will lose out, otherwise ALL ties get a point. This will ONLY come into play if it's a tie on time, unless lexie or I think an unfair advantage is gained. Our decision is final, so yah-boo-sucks!!

4. There is no rule 4.

5. The first to 25 wins that particular sprint. the top 3 will be entered into a hall of fame in the first post of the thread. Once that happens, all scores are reset to zero. this is to enable new people to join at any time should they so wish to.
