    Is this game dead or is the clue that hard? I think I may have a couple of them but can't get the whole quote

    Did I make it too hard? its a common saying. Or should I say, it was. My age may be showing.

    Maybe try posting some hints. I think we typically start with the full on puzzle and then every 24 hours or so post a hint. Not only does this help people get it, it bumps up the thread.

    Beware of Greeks bearing gifts!

    Ah, you went with the Trojan war quote! Very nice!

    And yes, my little girl is getting pretty big. Just shy of 6 months old and already 20 pounds and 28 inches long. At our last check up, she was above the 95th percentile for height and weight. They grow up too fast!

    How about this solution: you post a puzzle and make good on delivering the sticks for the win, and only then do you get your prize from skweekz. Good for you, skweekz?

    Sounds good to me! I figured that's how we'd do it since that's pretty much the normal procedure.
