That's exactly what I thought. I pm'd Sparkout, saying something along the lines of "well, I've just ended up with a random string of letters -xxxxxxxxxxx, so back to the drawing board" and he said "What are you telling me for when you've got the answer?" :lol: So that probably implies that he had heard of it!

Yes, something he said to me implied he had heard of it. ;)

Ahem!
Thanks for the unsolicited... but no, I'd never heard of it until this puzzle either - and I needed a bit of a bash too - I had the answer without realising as well, and it was only being told to do the obvious and "Google what you've got" that made it work. Of course having looked it up, I learnt about something significant to do with it that's very relevant to the rest of the meta.

Oh phew. We haven't got any intelligent people here after all. I was beginning to worry... :lol:

I've got them all except for cool website, religious works and drunkard. Please can someone give me a small nudge. Does the '?' matter in 'cool website?'?

Thank you LAT. I've done all of these puzzles now. I'll get going with the missing artist now.
