sorry dude, dr pepper is my favorite drink and gnr is my favorite sleaze metal band.

Democracy Now said...

Mark, great try, but you have to identify your answers more clearly...just saying guitarist isn't going to cut it man...Also, the following answers you have wrong.

2, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17....

Again, you need to identify what it is, you just can't say something here or something there...

25. There's a strange, seemingly out of place sign on the far left that says 3 9 something. I hope that's a release date or when a release date is going to be announced.(Sept 3rd) LOL!

Replace with 13. Uzi Suicide logo above No.11 (Axl Rose).

That should be pretty much it I think.

To those who may browse the comment section:

Dr. Pepper personel have confirmed that there is a KFC sign/billboard contained within that is *not* actually a piece of the puzzel. The sign is an original part of the photo that exists as its own entity- not GN'R related.

1. Dr Pepper advertisement

20. Looks like the picture of Axl with the kangaroo at the Sidney zoo in the taxi cab on the very left (next to the Buckethead kid)

Anonymous said...

you sure the dr pepper or kfc signs are not part of the puzzle? 100%?

Anonymous said...

^^^
Yes, the KFC billboard was an original part of the photo, so therefore, it is not a GN'R-related icon. This was confirmed to me by someone at Dr. Pepper after I called their office to give my answer and they told me I was not fully correct. However, the Dr. Pepper logo is not NOT wrong (don't want to give anything away lol).

But as of now, I think I've 'em all!

ok got it:

1. GN'R "DEAD!" photo from Illusions, top left

2. "Shackler's Revenge" written over purple sign

3. Vintage Dr. Pepper logo shortly below Shackler icon

4. KFC bucket on young boy's head, bottom

5. Ron Thal playing guitar, a little right of the KFC bucket head boy

6. "GNR" vanity plate, left most automobile

7. "AXL" on cab top-thing, two cars over, last vehicle in right row of cars

8. Photo of Axl immediately to right of "AXL"

9. "UZI SUICIDE" logo above Axl photo

10. Richard Fortus playing guitar below WEST WOOd hair salon --> sign

11. Robin Finck's head superimposed on body in front of women's clothing store, far right of photo

12. "PEACE COULD LAST FOREVER" Civil War lyrics on aqua blue sign above Robin head

13. Axl "ROCKER" tattoo to left of Civil War lyrics

14. Classic GN'R logo over first "O" on blue WESTWOOd Hair Salon sign

15. http://www.axlrose.com on sign next to "TAKE 5" sign

16. 39M, bottom left quad.- GN'R has sold 39 million albums in the US, not 39 1/2

17. Top of photo, right quadrant, cover of END OF DAYS soundtrack (Oh My God featured)

Hey guys...hope this makes sense but you've got to have a name attached to your submissions so I know who is who...anyone could be anonymous, duh. Joe K is the winner this time around, but more prizes coming next week.

Anonymous said...

democracy now....sambaldi@gmail got the exact same finds, he was 2 hours earlier see post....whats up?

after he mentioned the irs thing, the other did too.

Anonymous said...

Was gonna say too, clearly sambaldi@gmail.com got everything correct and he was much faster than Joe k. In fact Joe copied sambaldi's answers. He also did it on mygnr forums.

Or democracy got conned here or he just is a friend of his so he let him win with a lame excuse of type in your name when posting. he mentioned his email, so?

if you cant be a proper jury, then dont even start. lame cop out contests.

Thirded, that was just cheap democracy now.
So I won't even try the other contests, you just decide who wins by pulling it out of your ass obviously.

Every puzzle has same answers people, once you post it wrong, everyone can find the stuff, so don't play then, or play and know that most will copy youre answers as they have the same picture, it happened to Gunsguy now it happens again, someone will post something and everyone copies it then finds something new and reposts it, don't worry about it... it's just a gmae and its free so...

Democracy Now said...

Sorry for the confusion guys and sorry Joe, but it does appear Sambaldi was the first to post the correct answers.

Let me ask you guys a question...would you rather people submit their findings directly to me, that way someone doesn't do so much hard work only to miss one, then someone copies all of those finds and discovers the last clue to win...

It's up to you guys...Again, we're doing this every week and I'll be ironing out the kinks as we go.

Anonymous said...

That would be best, let them PM or email you the answers, because like this anyone can just copy the answers of others and find the 1 thing missing etc.
