Post Your Great Hunt Code Guesses Here

[MikeRiley]

Is the link to the Great Hunt site posted anywhere? And to that failed guess list? I can't seem to find anything on these new forums.

[Amroth]

The Great Hunt site is here, and the list here.

[MikeRiley]

Gave a few a try, all failed of course. I figured we might see a little of Gawyn in the book if we're seeing Galad. They were long shots anyway.

7-7-9

 

The first thing I tried was using the numbers on a phone but that leads to either pry or spy which are not on the list of the words in both chapters in EotW.

 

The second thing I tried was to check the date. Wikipedia didn't have anything for either July 7 or July 9 for any year.

 

The best I could come up with is that in Matthew 7:7-9 Jesus talks about knock and the door shall be opened. Door is on the list and could loosely fit the other clues. Usually it is door number 3, not third door. Moiraine went through the doorway to the land of the finns. Any way I tried a few door titles like

 

a door

the door

open doors

 

As far as choosing BS could choose door number 3, I guess.

 

*Edit* a tweet on the tgh line mentions that BS finished tWoK on 7-7-9 and there is a chapter 53 in that book. That is much better then my idea. *Sigh* It is too late here. I should have went to bed hours ago.

[ThatGuy]

Could it be 'wolf'? It appears in ch 1 + 2, and would satisfy the "coincidentally" requirement if there is 1. Also ch. 53 of TDR has the wolf picture.

Bel Tine

I don't have my book, or I would.

[DocBean]

Has the Chapter with the hints - Third, Chapter 53, and "The one I chose" been solved?

[Wheel of Thyme]

Well, I am sure everyone will be pleased to learn that "Third Eye Blind" was a fail, along with "Judging Amys" and "The Devil Wears Pevara".

 

Hope you are all as relieved as I...and smiling a bit as well....

What was learned

[DemandredFO]

Has anyone tried a title with Demane in it. Especially since this is probably the book where that secret is blown wide.

[TankSpill]

DemandredFO, I tried a few. All were unsuccessful:

 

The Truth About Damanes

The Truth About A'Dams

The Truth About the A'Dam

The Truth About Sul'Dams

The Truth About the Leash

 

I wish I had known about this contest before now...

DemandredFO, I tried a few. All were unsuccessful:

 

The Truth About Damanes

The Truth About A'Dams

The Truth About the A'Dam

The Truth About Sul'Dams

The Truth About the Leash

 

I wish I had known about this contest before now...

Damane is one of those irregular words where the plural form is the same as the singular form.

Try "The Truth about Damane"

The same goes for sul'dam - so try "The truth about sul'dam".
