The cryptic message at the top of the Discussion page?
I think I've guessed it. Has anybody else? |

Was the forum hacked or are we in for a raunchy horror OWC? |

Haha! Yes, that particular eggplant emoji appears a little weird but it fits with my guess. |

By the aubergining of my double thumbs?
By the egg planting of my pollex?
By the cocking of my gesture of approval or encouragement?
I have no idea... |

Nope, no cigar, Matthew. Eggplant is indeed a euphemism.
Am I the only one that gets it, considering all things spooky and Halloween coming up? |

I think I'm well off the mark here but the only thing I can think of is the name of a novel by a very famous British author. This novel isn't particularly scary though - not quite the Exorcist |

Ah, I get it now. Not Agatha but Mr Quote. The second half of the quote. Pretty ingenious actually for the upcoming OWC! |

I see the emoji has been edited. Sounds like a very interesting challenge is cresting the horizon. I was going to sit the next one out. I just may have to change my mind. |

Don changed the first emoji - but both the eggplant and cactus have something in common. Now that Zack's post is up I can't help myself: By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes.Shakespeare's Macbeth. 'A Drum', as in 'Macbeth doth come', as a teaser for the Halloween OWC used to be posted - just that simple pic of a drum. Don got adventurous with this emoji riddle. Loved it! P.S. Now we just have to decipher Colin's guess. ...Actually I think I get that now. |

AdministratorAdministrator So, what are you writing?
LocationVirginia Posts16448 Posts Per Day 1.94 |
LC nailed it. No secret that MacBeth is my favorite play and I have a fondness for witches and had Zack not volunteered to run the Halloween OWC, the theme would have involved witches. So, head over to the Halloween OwC Theme- Don |
