    It gives you A. You have to put something in relating to the letter B and it will give you another clue for the letter, word, number or phrase that will relate to the letter C. It just goes down the alphabet.

    This is mind-numbing... I'm walking blind here...

    All I could see after your suggestion was "addiction", but that didn't work... So I came back here ready to reply and I looked at your post again and immediately saw "addition", which brought me to their next clue, "dad"... I put in father, mom, patricide and finally "eve" which then yielded this:

    So I type in "french" and it gives me "off"... I've yet to establish the pattern, but at least it's more fun than it was in the beginning... :)

    Don't give away the answers in the thread incase someone is behind you just wanting clues. What word with like off with a G in it is strucutred like it.

    Okay, so after reading your post, I put in my first guess and it brought me to giraffe... If the pattern were "structured like", the I could understand, but that doesn't seem to be the case... There seems to be a different kind of clue for each new word...

    There's no consistent type of clue for each new word...?

    You're right. It changes types of clues after a bit. It gets harder and harder. Hungry hungry....

    Just think back to your youth. I'm sure a google search will help.

    it's another animal. Later on you will have to pay attention to capital letters as well.

    THANK YOU!

    edit: in hindsight, i probably wouldn't have guessed the solution in eternity without your help, thanks
