I can never solve those. The common theme is always too obscure for me to find it.
Today, again, I have no clue.

No.  You are on the sampler. That's an intro to the web site. You need to click on the link right under it called Current Puzzles...

I'm not sure how the final answer relates to clue #1, but if you concentrate on the other five, you'll probably get it.

I actually got it last night at around 11pm after looking at it again.  I agree, I don't see how clue #1 fits in.  Too bad they don't do daily puzzles on the weekend.

Hi Elfstone,

Well unbelievably, it's another grey day here so I thought I'd check out the forum here - and it's fun!  I really like word puzzles and this one's good.  BTW, it's what the 1's keep their stuff in............ [smiley=hi_five.gif]

@Beanie
Welcome to the forum!
If you are like me this place isn't just something for a grey day!  


Did someone solve this one?
What theme could it possibly have?

You could always PM me the answer. I'm curious!  

I know all the words, but the theme is impossible.

It was a little tricky today. I had to play through a few times to get all the answers, and the theme took a little thinking as well.

Yeah, I think the keywords were trickier than the theme today.  What I love about these is that you sit there thinking there is nothing that fits all the words, then you have that, "Aha!" moment when everything fits.
