February 20th, 2010 by comfortably (and technically) dumb 4 comments »The response for QS 175 was lesser than that for QS 174. So my objective seems to have been completely defeated. Anyway, as promised I’ll keep the series going, until the stage 3 is cracked, with another four pointer. Five extra points for anyone who cracks the stage three today.

QS 175
February 18th, 2010 by comfortably (and technically) dumb 3 comments »Ok, since nobody has cracked yesterday’s question, I’ll raise the stakes. What I will do is have a four pointer today as well. And the answer to today’s question along with that to yesterday’s (I mean the grand connects) would now form part of another theme (Stage three, in effect). This would probably continue for the next few days until either I run out of enthu or enough people have cracked the stage three, whichever happens first. So here’s today’s question
A
What other famous painting, according to many scholars, would be a part of this list? May not really be exhaustive, simply because there has so far been no concrete evidence to prove the claim.

B
What would you get if your remove B1 from what completes B2, more than one of B3, a variation of B4 etc?

Grand connect(Stage 2) – Connect A, B and C
