It's a very nice flower! And I think I found it's name, but not sure if it will be useful though.
What is the connection with the source comment? :confused:

*yawns and crawls out of the trees*

*stretches and mewls*

What's the change?
 
  • #2,647
*sits next to the flower and examines it, thinking*

((Don't you hate it when you find what you're looking for on google, click on the link, and then find that the webpage no longer exists?))
 
  • #2,648
yesterday it said..."Because they feared him..." now it says "Because they feared the impaler..."
 
  • #2,649
Oh, I saw that since last night... must've been changed after I finally figured out the previous riddle >,<
 
  • #2,650
I can sort of understand the link to the flower (at least compared to the Impaler), I can't understand what we're looking for in terms of the word needed...
 
  • #2,651
Yeah, there is a plant with his name, but not this one. Or am I wrong and I didn't identified correctly the plant?
 
  • #2,652
No, this plant is in no way named after Vlad

((Although I did see the Dracula orchid.. it's not this particular flower...))

By "his name" I meant Dracula's, no Vlad's. I don't quite agree that Vlad the Impaler is the same as Dracula :smile:
 
  • #2,654
Me and Iggy did find a flower possibly named after Vlad's granddaughter.. but we're not sure if we're following another rogue trail..
 
  • #2,655
yea I am not finding anything about his granddaughter...only stock numbers, hungarian brand susages, and some water boy in portland oregon

This is happening to me now! :mad: Almost all of the links in the Goggle search results end up in a "The page cannot be displayed" message. I think the storm have damaged something. Or maybe it's the hand of Dracula :smile:
 
  • #2,657
I vote for the hand of Dracula... I think we need Omega to come smack the hand with a beatstick of some sort...

Well...I guess someone needs to smack the t e out of (or into) me!

I don't know for sure.
 
  • #2,661
Well... I'm drawing a blank still.. I'd say it'd relate to his wives.. but if they're 'as untouched as a virgin'.. couldn'tve been them...

unless 'her' is another object we can't figure out >,<



*hugs Omi*

It's okay, you'll beat up Dracula even without the beatstick ^^
 
  • #2,662
Can we just pick the flower and leave?
 
  • #2,663
-,- oh geez Omi... (look in your pm)



Omi... you've got to be kidding me...
