Hints on Triple Entendre

[btorres]

I need a hint for O54

 

[Tom2pt0]

Thanks for the clues posted in here. They've helped a lot. I'm stuck on O27 and M35. For O27 I know what the flags mean but cant figure out the rest. For M35 I know the movie and thought I knew his occupation but I must be missing something else.

M35:

That was tough. If you know the movie, try every possible iteration of his job title.

Google what the flags mean ( use the same punctuation )
with the word clue and go from there

I could still use some help with 45, I know what the clues mean, I'm just having trouble connecting them.

I am also stuck on 30. I can read what it says, but it doesn't seem to like the format of any of my answers. Would you be so kind as to throw a hint my way? Thanks!

I got it. I was close earlier with the meaning of the flags but couldn't correlate it with the date and the police hat.

Ah, i must have missed the devs' post then. Tried looking for it, but couldn't find it,

I mean, if we dont post hints, I really think the thread isn't much more than a glorified email list then. I don't see any need to keep interacting in public on the thread if all I have to do is PM someone and get their hint privately. I'll argue that the public posting of the hints is what got us actually interacting in the first place. Looking back at this thread from post 1, I see a lot more member interaction there. Now, it really is coming down to the case example I posted above. And if we do have interactions, it's all in PMs which is a type of interaction for sure, but not very public and not really welcoming, IMO.

Case in point: if all we do is post "need help with M31", then received a "PM sent" and then we post a "thx!", that's the end of the interaction. Maybe we might post a "whew, hard one, or tough one, or what a great game!" I suppose... Imagine a newbie seeing over andover again JUST a post for help, a post for a PM sent, and a Thx. Feels kind of closed off to me. Doesn't feel very friendly to me. In the PMs sure, it may be friendly, but on the surface, it doesn't seem that way.

I mean, if I know that all you all want to do is PM from here on out, I see no reason for me to visit the thread (forum). I'll just login and send a PM to theolsen or whoever, get the aching and leave. No other interaction. I mean, there's a reason my first post to this forum was "Hey I finished movies!". I wasn't looking for hints, just saying hey, I can help if you need some. If I had seen that it was just a PM thing, I probably wouldn't have posted or joined. At the time, it seemed like a bunch of similarly minded puzzlers hanging out and sharing their experiences.

The developer's 3 posts were on January 9th starting with #228. I think there was only one post that he thought was too direct of a hint. That person deleted it and the developer was happy. Only 1 post out of 227 previous posts isn't bad.

Hmmm. I still can't come up with it. I figured i'd at least get a 'you're close' message putting in what I did.

PM me. This one might be tough to hint at without giving it away.

I prefer reading the actual hints rather than "PM sent"

Hi, I'm new to this forum. I could really use some help on the original version I'm stuck on O-45 please, please give me some help.
I've been stuck on this question for about one and a half weeks.

Yup - that's the one I've been stuck on for quite a while. Any hints gratefully accepted.

Working out the symbol is a big hint for the names!
