YGO Card Name Game

[Mr. Cranium]

Yes, my poem is definitely not in blank verse.

Your poem might be, though.

My poem? As in a poem I'm looking for that one of the other quatrains refers to?

EDIT: Is that a reference to Helen Keller in the last quatrain?
EDIT 2: Or American journalist and humorist, Helen Rowland?
Or American actress, Helen Hayes?

 

[DaGuyWitBluGlasses]

Helen: No, no, and no.

 

[Mr. Cranium]

Any remote chance that we could get another little clue?

 

[CardsOfTheHeart]

I'm not sure what to think about your poem, Guy. But reading it made me think of After the Struggle. So I'll guess After the Struggle.

 

[DaGuyWitBluGlasses]

It would be easier to solve if Sarah didn't go by different names.

After the Struggle: No

 

[slither]

I'll go a bit on a limb here and say:

Back to Square One

or

Necrovalley

 

[Mr. Cranium]

What? That didn't really sound grammaticly correct. Do you mean that the riddle would be easier to solve knowing the fact that this Sarah person didn't go by different names? If so, what exactly is that supposed to mean?

 

[DaGuyWitBluGlasses]

"If," sorry, slight typo there..

It would be easier to figure out who exactly Sarah was if she were always known as sarah. There are web pages about this lady that make no mention that she was known also as "Sarah." I.E. they only mention her other name.

Back to Square One: No
Necrovalley: No

 

[Judicator]

Does Sarah refer to a thing rather than a person?

Final Countdown and Final Flame and Final Ritual of the Ancients

I doubt any of those are right.

 

[DaGuyWitBluGlasses]

Sarah was a real person. She died over a hundred years ago.

But her name will help you find a thing.

Final Countdown: No
FInal Ritual: No
Final Flame: No

 

[Mr. Cranium]

Sara Jane Lippincott, who was born Sara Jane Clarke and went the pseudonym Grace Greenwood? She died in 1904, which is technically 102 years ago. She was also a poet.

 

[slither]

Umm well after some reviewing and thinking... how about:

Night Assailant?

 

[BenjaminMS]

Mmm... I decide to go with Labyrinth Wall...

The first part points to the Battle of Africa (El Alemein, or how was that place called?). That points to a tank, or an metaphor/equilevant of it, a WALL. Something that is very strong.

The 2nd part, is something I am still lost about. I guess it is meant to point to 'labyrinth'. Just like the 3rd part: watch the word 'decipher', which returns 2-3x (or in the form of another, similar word). Deciphering is needed when you are blocked by an invisible 'wall', when it is almost a labyrinth.

EDIT: The battle of El Alamein was a battle between huge armies of tanks...

 

[DaGuyWitBluGlasses]

Labyrinth Wall: No
Night Assailant: No
Sarah Jane Lippincott: No

 

[Mr. Cranium]

1. Was this Sarah even an author, writer, or poet?

2. What the heck is the 2nd quatrain pointing to!?

 

[DaGuyWitBluGlasses]

Sarah was a poet, if it will help you find her name.

The fact that she was a poet is not what you need to figure out the puzzle, though.

I suppose i could have used someone else instead, but i think Sarah is a better name than Frances, for a girl at least.

 

[roadhouse007]

The guesses that I see are nowhere near my own, but:

Desertapir?

you referred to the desert in the first set, then to one word in the second, and the third I didn't really catch anything helpful to me.

The Unhappy Maiden?

Just a guess after reading everyone elses and piecing it together. Just a guess.

 

[slither]

Ummm interesting enough something tells me that this might be along the right track:

Mystic Box?

 

[DaGuyWitBluGlasses]

Mystic Box: No
Desertapir: No
The Unhappy Maiden: No

"Night Assailant" loosely fits the parts of the puzzle that have not yet been solved, purely a coincidence though. And, of course, once the puzzle is solved completely there is definitely only one answer that fits.

 

[Mr. Cranium]

The only real problem here is that this riddle is QUITE difficult. And I see no signs of it getting any easier.
