If you get too frustrated let me know where you are stuck. Just make sure to spoiler tag it.

It will also be easier if you work together perhaps...

I'm so confused on what to do. I did Felix's thing. I googled it, know where it's from. This is just making me feel stupid.

Has anyone got 3? [spoiler]I have almost zero knowledge of the reference. [/spoiler] (<--CIA-highlighter used more out of shame than necessity).

I do like these games, though.

[spoiler] Sam Jackson has a monologue in the movie where he "quotes" Ezekiel 25:17. I'm trying to make the connection between that and the clue. No idea what mpg or 7146 have to do with it. [/spoiler]

I have no idea either, [spoiler]but I'm not even sure it has anything to do with the movie, just like the previous clue didn't have anything to do with "Yet Strengthens" ... or did it? :shrug:[/spoiler]

[spoiler] It has to have something to do with it imo, i mean, what are the chances? [/spoiler]

CHONGS · « **Reply #20 on:** April 13, 2010, 04:12:30 PM »

OK about the case sensitive thing. I didn't realize our servers would be a dick about that. My apologies.

For future reference, all answers will have the FIRST letter capitalized and no other.

[spoiler]For Yet _____ Strengthens, look up the answer in wikipedia and look at the meaning of the name in hebrew.

The hint for 3 DOES have to do with the movie. You are pretty close....
