:shock:

..dam#, that is spooky :lol:, Robert, I would have had begged Sailor for more clues!!

Another one, please! Robert123, your turn....you won!! :D I'm downloading Unicorn 6 now, to do a quick 'frugal' install and see what it was like as I don't remember trying that one. Wow, this is a great way to re-discover our pup heritage, and have good fun doing so.


P.S. Sailor, side note: downloaded that latest woof-CE Slacko 5.7 of yours---I'm stumped what you changed under the hood compared to previous one, but it still runs as good as the first one. :wink:

Above one is pretty easy here is a slightly harder one.

Just from the icons alone, this sure seems like one of Ttuuxxx's creations. He is always a perfectionist when it comes to the icons on the DE looking unique & great with the chosen background pic. Hmmmm, which one of his creatiosn though...he's got a hundred!, lol.......damn my old memory.....I gotta go dig. Sure hope I'm on the right trail (don't tell, not yet, not this early in the game :wink: )

I can still see "Fire Hydrant" in the reflection of the first one :wink:

I'd say the second looks like something Dejan made, but I've already decided I'm not very good at this game :lol:

Correct for the second one. Yes Battleshooter guessed Fire hydrant can anyone guess the base for Fire Hydrant?

I'm just a bit curious about the first price to win in this game: is it a Puppy?

Late to the game again - looks like you did a twin ttuuxx (how appropriate!) for your selections, Robert123. Fond memories of the FH branch, especially 'cos it had the fanging FIREPUP browser included. Before the FireFox crew found it out and complained about the non-approved improvements ttuuxx had made to their turf...

EDIT: quick check and nope - I was wrong - thought ttuuxx packaged FirePup with Fire Hydrant but I was wrong. My memory banks...

Yes played around with fire hydrant a few times lovely stable pups from Ttuuxx..

LazyPuppy,

The overall first prize, he/she with the most wins at the end of this thread, receives a FREE year's worth of worldwide credit monitoring and fraud alert of your personal credit history from the good folks at Equifax, in USA. A $240/200euro value, to fiercely protect your most secret, personal credit information! They're just dam# bloody fine chaps there to put up such a great prize :roll:

Who's doing the next game? :D



P.S. Robert123, if you see this, I downloaded Ttuuxxx's latest Classic Pup (2.14 11, that he updated last fall) and tried for over an hour to get it to frugally boot/install like all the rest of my pups/ddogs. I kept getting the dreaded "ERROR, cannot find Puppy on 'usbflash' boot media. Pupmode=1 PDEV1=" error message. Made sure to rename the sfs file to remove the caps in it, and tried every grub4dos entry variation in existence I could think of, and nada, nothing helped, it just kept spitting up that boot error. Has anyone ever gotten a Ttuuxxx 'Classic Pup' to "frugally" boot given the problems it is/was known to have in the past with frugal booting?

A matter of controversy this one...

I don't know Jack, but it looks a bit low-tech...

Robert123 is extremely close, but not 100% correct

Good one, p310don! :D

This one has me completely stumped if Robert123 isn't right......can we have another hint, like maybe show what this pup had in it that sparked the controversy (was it a program, or what??) :wink: Was it something that wasn't freeware??? Or was it like a licensing battle royal---ala' or similar to Toni & Fred of ddogs-----about putting supposed correct license as a developer in it??
