Galfisk (Galfisk) New member Username: Galfisk Post Number: 5087 Registered: 9-2009 Posted on Monday, January 14, 2013 - 1:09 pm:        Were they happy because: they were addicted? They hadn't drunk in a long time? They had been through a stressful ordeal? They had worked hard for the alcohol? They were lucky to get alcohol? Did they drink alcohol at the moment? Was a restriction of some kind lifted? They: HAM? HAmixed? Underage? Age relevant? Relevant what country it happened in? Did they have to pay for the alcohol? Relevant?

At a sporting event? At a party?

You say I have seen, yet you are too young for prohabition, right.

They had been through a stressful ordeal? Yes They had worked hard for the alcohol? FA They were lucky to get alcohol? same FA, see next question Did they drink alcohol at the moment? NO! That fixes the FA Was a restriction of some kind lifted? Yes They: HAM? HAmixed? Mixed Underage? irr but no Age relevant? Relevant what country it happened in? Yope - explore Did they have to pay for the alcohol? If they wanted to drink it, but remember they didn't actually drink it then. Relevant? No Is it relevant where they were? yes, but none of these are even close Were they on a college campus? At a sporting event? At a party? Had there been a ban, taboo, on drinking alcohol? You say I have seen, yet you are too young for prohabition, right. First of all, FA - I didn't witness it personally. You should probably explore this. Second, there had been a ban on drinking alcohol (a legal one in fact) but be careful of FAs here. Were these people a group of women who thought they might be pregnant and were glad to find that they weren't? no had they just come through a particular ordeal? Yes. I just answered that above. I'm too lazy to scroll to find this, but they're all HA.

However, this is only tangentially relevant to the puzzle.

Or had these people just traveled/moved from a place where it was banned to a place where it was legal? If so, was this relocation the ordeal?

It wasn't so much the ordeal as the resolution of the ordeal.

(I think I accidentally stumbled upon the solution to this earlier today.) Galfisk (Galfisk) New member Username: Galfisk Post Number: 5244 Registered: 9-2009 Posted on Wednesday, February 06, 2013 - 12:36 pm:        Did they escape from somewhere? Prison? A country? State? City? Another kind of geographical location?

(I think I accidentally stumbled upon the solution to this earlier today.) No - it's FSEI (from someone else's imagination) but based on a true story - although the incident in question was highly dramatized. Did they escape from somewhere? yes Prison? A country? this State? City? Another kind of geographical location? well, some specific place within the country Shez (Shez) New member Username: Shez Post Number: 3863 Registered: 2-2011 Posted on Sunday, February 10, 2013 - 6:50 pm:        the desert?

Or why? Was alcohol banned in that area? Or were they banned from drinking alcohol in that area? Did they escape because they couldn't drink alcohol there? Or did they have some other reason?
