That's a great idea, it would be fun to try and guess. Though often it's going to be tricky (the above is a perfect example, almost impossible to guess). I think we need the 'answer' to be provided so we can check if we're right, and the answer should be placed in a spoiler rather than removed altogether? What do you chaps think?

Yep probably a bit obscure for non-UK soap fans... :lol:

Could always put the highlighted bit in a spoiler tag underneath as well, for ones difficult to figure out.

Well in an emergency we can always fall back on…

If someone's posted a game title which you think is impossible, or seems to be stumping everyone, you may post the game's cover, allowing other players (but not you) to use any word written on the cover, should they need to.

There's some interesting colour choices on the trident in that screenshot!
I know FPSs like to boast about how there are sometimes more polygons on the player's main weapon up-close than in the entire rest of the scene, but I don't think we need to apply similar reasoning to the number of different attributes we use... :lol:

It makes a nice change to have more than 8 characters to work with!

Yeah this should be way easier than Kwik Snax, which seemed impossible at first! :-)
