Welcome to this passion-filled section with our favorite daughter and her soon-to-be lover & (hand-fast) husband! We've created 3 games for you to play again, all based on section 9. Same as before, each game allows for 6 points to be earned, but you need only 10 to get a "perfect." Over-achievers (you know who you are! ;)) who answer all 18 correctly do earn an extra point, though.
Answers due by midnight on July 28. Send them to highlandergames at ymail dot com. Happy Puzzling!
Game 1
The Murray's game of Marsali...has been renamed Passionement, in honor of our section's title. Or, without all the duplicate letters:
PASIONEMT
You need only find words beginning with each letter above, (from our paltry 2 chapters - 40 & 41), with the following subjects:
Places
People
3 words for every point.
Game 2
Nannag has created another tricky Jeopardy game for you. The "answers" are below...send us the questions! 1 point for each question.
1. Person who resembles a poisoned white mouse when ill.
2. "Officious" person who looks like a half-roasted pig?
3. Person who is Roger’s aunt, six times removed.
4. Meeting a gentleman who could give Lizzie the current whereabouts of Jamie and Claire was the reward for this virtuous behavior.
5. A fair indication of male satisfaction (according to Roger).
6. Name of the county wherein lies Fraser’s Ridge (as well as a name recognized by knitters internationally.)
Game 3
The last game is a cryptogram -- dinna hate me! I've made it easy -- well loved quotes spoken... 2 points for each quote.
