QuizmasterG - was this one of those which must never show its face?
How could I know? Surely it's up to the one who is doing the puzzle to abide by the rules/convention. The poor old answerer is only trying to help, and has no idea where the question came from.
In fact this has been answered before (by me and others).
And, just in passing, I guess a hundred desperate people would have two hundred thundering feet, would they not?

no intention to get you into trouble Aquagility .... you put a lot into AB
but this thread does show up that some Abers have the answer, are not going to 'let on', and were not going to answer other Abers who were asking for help with this clue ....
kind of a 'sicko' approach from the 'don't tell brigade.
I just wonder if they 'took' other answers from AB .....
I simply don't agree with your approach QuizmasterG .... this is an 'answer site' .... nor with your petty opening sarcasm .....

It was a cry of anguish, not sarcasm.
To say you are not even doing this quiz is even worse.
There have been several posts in the last week or so from charity quizsetters who are thinking of giving up altogether because of lazy people posting stacks of questions from quizzes on AB hoping to benefit from good intentioned people like yourself.
If you like a challenge, why not send off for a quiz and give it a go - there are stacks to choose from - spend hours looking for / working out answers and then realise entrants are sitting back and gathering all they need from Answerbank.
If you like giving people answers that's fine, but spare a thought for others - this question has been bouncing around for weeks so it should have been fairly obvious that it was a potentially quiz-winning one!
Try going to your local pub quiz, stand at the back and shout all the answers out for all to hear and then see what kind of reaction you get - don't encourage the lazy!

whatever it was .... some Abers are against giving SOME answers, but happy to give others ..... just so long as a 'tie-breaker' is held back to the satisfaction of large egos ................
as I say, I don't buy into egos using the site to fit their purpose, but then 'sitting on high' by not giving an answer to a harder question ....... if you are an ABer, then you join the site to give answers and help others to gain knowledge.
who was it that said - information is power ..... being a QuizMASTER makes a statement .....
to pick and chose and deliberately hold back is hypocrisy ..... to go on, as some do, to 'bully' other ABers by intimidating with 'high-brow' comment doesnt cut the mustard with me and I shall continue to give answers where I can.
'to say you are not even doing this quiz is even worse' these words speak volumes ....... I joined AB to give answers, to improve my own knowledge and learning - this will never be limited only to quizzes that I am doing.

oh and the pub analogy doesnt work .....
that is a quiz without the ability to reseach and look for answers - you and your teammates
that is not the case with quizzes where answers are googled for, posted onto AB, asked around for in such places as libraries etc, friends and workmates asked,, relatives, neighbours etc etc

the way that the Rainbow Charity does it is to charge people when a 'completed' puzzle is sent in .... perhaps, that should be taken a look at by other charities?
set your quiz/puzzle up for electronic downloading ..... why do other charities keep sending out their quizzes --- all that administration, printing, paper, postage, etc cost?
AB is not the only forum where puzzlers ask for help ..... there are so many now and, if you pay, there are organisations now that will 'guarantee' finding an answer for you ..... the world has changed (and do not assume that I mean for the better)
