Heh... I should turn the first one in to one of those.

No, I'm using a flash game to make them. I'll link it at the end of the riddle.

Indeed! I was hoping people would notice all those eyes in the third robot, or the single giant one on the second robot. Choose your square!

Square 34 is my choice. By the way, I totally thought agaricus got it, but the fourth clue meant otherwise.

Square 34 yields a U! You can put that with your A A and P to get a Paua! ...okay, so I made that up, but you're one letter closer to a DROD mug if you can find an M and a G.

If anyone wants to have some fun making robots like the ones I used for this puzzle, you can find the flash game here. The link is to Newgrounds, so if you can't visit that site for some reason or have an ethical issue with the site, you'll have to find it somewhere else. It's called Build a Robot 2.0

Clue 1: As I was walking to St. Ives I met a man with seven wives. Each wife had seven sacks, each sack had seven cats, each cat had seven kittens. Kittens cats sacks and wives, how many were going to St. Ives?

Clue 2: Although one person is indeed travelling to St. Ives, that is not the solution to the puzzle.

OG#1: 2,753.

At the speed the polygamous man and his family would be going, it's pretty trivial to catch up to them. Also, sacks don't count as going anywhere, being an inanimate object.

So that's 1 + 1 man + 7 wives + (7x7x7) cats + (7x7x7x7) kittens.

OG#1: 2800

kittens = 7*7*7*7 = 2401
cats = 7*7*7 = 343
sacks = 7*7 = 49
wives = 7

kittens + cats + sacks + wives = 2800

You are too good. They were indeed both quotes from Jeremy Irons in various movies. The first was from Die Hard with a Vengeance, and the second was from The Lion King.

Choose your square!

Die Hard 3 was the first thing I thought of after clue #1. I almost guessed the movie, but decided to hold off so I didn't give anything away, and because it was one heck of a shot in the dark. :)

I'll take square 39.

Well, for chewing through this puzzle so quickly, you get a big black X. That'll learn you.

New puzzle coming soon!

Riddle: Two brothers created a Mexican boxer. This boxer felt like concealing some notes in his response to a letter. By the end of page 73 he had 27 such notes. He took the first 5, only to discover they brought about the end of something famous.

What was it?
