Question 15, Winter League 2022

A creature X, is considered to be currency of the people of an island that sunk into the ocean. The holes on its body are also considered to symbolise the wounds of a Godly figure (his birthday happens to be today) who was crucified. These creatures have quite a peculiar way of eating, and use their spines to consume food.

Question 14, Winter League 2022

The famous duo of Mario and Luigi, are known as the super smash bros. There are two leading companies, X and Y in a certain product that can be compared to Mario and Luigi respectively. As Mario dominates over Luigi, the same took place between X and Y. During World War II, the rift between the founders grew stronger and led to forming independent companies X and Y.

X (analogous to Mario here) was named after its founder. Y was too originally, but later changed its name to something that is well reflected in Y’s logo currently.

ID X and Y. (points only if both are correct, and in the right order)

Question 12, Winter League 2022

X has its own record label, and is a very well-known brand. The original logo of X was rated R and one can get over 80,000 different varieties of items from X.

In almost every scene of this 1999 movie, there is a X Y. This is because X Y acts as an agent to portray the film’s theme subtly, due to the rapidly increasing popularity of X during the time.

Question 11, Winter League 2022

X was considered to be an undergarment, and as such, was considered inappropriate to be seen and was made of leather. From the time of their invention until World War 2, a waistcoat was worn over to cover X and prevent indecency. However, people began removing outer layers in public, so this sensibility decreased.

In the 2000’s it became fashionable for some women to wear X as outerwear, a style emerging from mod style of the 1960’s. One particular instant which made it popular again was when the vocalist of a famous band wore it along with her dark suit.

Question 9, Winter League 2022

In 2022, an ARG (Alternate Reality Game) was launched on their discord by the band J eight days before the release of their new song K, part of whose lyrics were part of the ARG. The final solution to the ARG was the music video poster that was released as the solution along with the song release.

The lyrics video on the other hand, was released on K awareness day.

The premise of the song revolves around K slicing and dicing other K; one of which the listener may relate to.

P.S. The artwork of the lyrics video is a boogie.

Identify K by J.

Question 7, Winter League 2022

A popular animated kids show, this show is one of the few shows to have begun online before hitting the cable. Among other repetitive elements the show is renowned for, a characteristic element distinctive to the online version is still maintained in every TV episode aired.

Coincidentally, the colour of this element is iconically the show’s first of many words introduced to the audience.

Can you find the show and the element being spoken of?

Question 6, Winter League 2022

This word X derives its origin owing to its shape, which at that point in time was compared to a part in male anatomy. Surprisingly, it also act as aphrodisiacs: foods that stimulate sex drive. South Americans call it “apple of the winter”( even though it has a couple nicknames ending with pear) which when combined with the Aztec word for ‘sauce’ plays a role in naming the famous condiment made using X . The said item has numerous misleading names, owing to the fact that it sounds like lawyer in Spanish and crocodile in Mexican (referring to the immigration of people to the new world).
