Thread: The catchphrase game

    Oh, man, you are so close. You have the first word. Just say it aloud. The rest should fall into place. This was a catchphrase for an entire era of European history, for Christ's sake!

    Deus Vult.

    You'd need a hot potato in a mouth to pronounce "day-us volt" that way.

    There we go! Sar1n has it! And yeah, you obviously don't get to the exact pronunciation of Deus Volt (or at least I hope not; someone would have to be pronouncing that wrong otherwise), but it gets you the components closely enough that I thought it was doable. Thanks for stepping in with your wisdom and riddlemaster skills, Sar1n! The floor is now yours.

    If anyone wants to take the turn at this point, that is totally fair play. I am unfortunately way too busy to put together a riddle, so someone will have to step up

    Bump. Just to remind people, the turn is open, and I am unfortunately far too busy at the moment to come up with something and be the responsible party for this round of the game. If anyone would like to take the turn, you're more than welcome!

    Seems tough. I have given it a few tries over the day but nothing sensible has emerged yet.

    I'll give you guys two hints.

    1. It's a Flemish saying. (Of course I'll approve English translations of it, literal translations though)
    2. The first picture is an emotion/feeling

    As this competition is known to be such an easy one, I am glad you decided to make it harder by introducing another language without a warning. But generous that you accept a translation. Now, where is that Flemish dictionary of mine?

    I'm not one to give away easy points. What do you mean? Doesn't everybody have one?

    Experiencing the emotion in picture one is akin to feeling like goat or perhaps right after walking into goat

    I am using "spite is what the goat shites" from here on out.

    Muizer has got it.

    It's a phrase that you say if someone says he's sorry. Essentially it means that regret helps noone.

    Muizer the field is yours.

    Gyro's got it. I couldn't resist the urge to use the showrunners in that capacity. Your turn!

    Let us know if you end up having trouble coming up with a riddle, and maybe someone else can.

    Don't give a damn about what other people say
    Because tomorrow is a brand-new day
