Description: Each question contains a number and some initials for a commonly recognized phrase, or an item that has something to do with that number.

Yes, it seems they basically are. Y'know, I even alphabetized this list to get rid of the doubles. I guess you guys get 2 freebies. /le sigh

Not to make it worse, but I actually found a few others while I was working on these puzzles last night:

7 + 54
31 + 34? not sure about this one because there is an extra letter in the second one
32 + 45
44 + 79

And can I just say that these are super hard? Sure, some seem easy and obvious but others seem impossible to solve. Good thing I like a challenge. *g*

Nah. It's just me banging my head cuz I missed some duplicates - meaning you get free points. Ughhh.

I have comments here screened unless I specifically unscreened them. It doesn't look like anyone has put up a thread in either crew_land or crew_sea for sharing hints, but feel free to post one in your team!

If you still want to submit this, go ahead and post it to this comment. I will adjust the scores accordingly. Sorry about the confusion.

Has a non-native English speaker hurt you?

I don't understand why you hate us so...

I did say you could start a hint thread in your crew site to help each other out. I don't think anyone did tho.

Sorry for the confusion, but I wasn't looking for a hint thread. I'm looking for the team thread where we post our answers.
