View Full Version : The Yellow Wood Door

I got this idea on the internet whilst searching for forum games. I have changed the name of it so everyone does go looking on the web for the answer to this "puzzle". I thought it might be fun to have some type of game on here.

The Yellow Wood Door is a common word game where a player already introduced to the game (me) understands the 'trick' to it. I will give clues to the players who do not know what does or does not belong behind 'the door'. Those who do understand you may say you know it, but please do not give it away! And if you do get it, please give clues along with me. It will all make sense sooner or later. If you don't understand please say, and I will try my best to explain!

The first clue is:

Minnie Mouse is allowed in, Mickey Mouse isn't.

Happy Playing! :)

Rosie
01-04-2008, 06:28 PM
Ok, I will give another clue:

There are books, but no shelves in the Yellow Wood Door

sorry Iam so confused :confused: I am a little slow today :p

Tiki
01-04-2008, 06:37 PM
Huh? :confused:
:wacko:


:blush:

Rosie
01-04-2008, 06:39 PM
LOL, I was totally confused to start with. It helps when you know the trick to it. Ok, its sooo hard to explain without giving it away. Only certain certains things are allowed through the Yellow Wood Door, and that's as simple as it get's. Ok, you might get it with more clues.

You, yourself 'xxxSpikexxx' are not allowed through, but a member such a 'poppabill' is allowed through. Feet are allowed through but shoes are not.

You have to really think about it hehe. :D

Rosie
01-04-2008, 06:40 PM
Tiki, you're not allowed through.

Rosie
01-04-2008, 06:42 PM
Google is allowed through but internet isn't...

xxxSpikexxx
01-04-2008, 06:42 PM
Poppabill does not wear shoes :p Sorry still slow :blink:

Tiki
01-04-2008, 06:42 PM
So are we supposed to guess what is allowed through? :confused:

Aly
01-04-2008, 06:46 PM
Is it socks? LMAO

Rosie
01-04-2008, 06:46 PM
No, not really. You have to figure out the rule about what can go in the Yellow Wood Door.

Tiki
01-04-2008, 06:48 PM
ah ok.

this is hard...hmmm..

Rosie
01-04-2008, 06:53 PM
Hmmm, what other members can enter the Yellow Wood Door....Mossybird can, Babyluv12 can't.

Tiki
01-04-2008, 06:54 PM
Can we ask questions?

If so, does it have something to do with rodents?

Rosie
01-04-2008, 06:56 PM
If you want. And no, it has nothing whats no ever to do with rodents. All the clues relate in one way.

Puppies can get in, but no dogs.

Bea
01-04-2008, 07:02 PM
So ... males can get in, and not females?

Rosie
01-04-2008, 07:03 PM
Nope.....like I said, all the clues relate in one way.

Rosie
01-04-2008, 07:22 PM
Do you want me to tell one person by PM or something? I don't think anyone is getting it, and 2 people giving clues might be a little easier than one, I don't know.

A whole lot of clues:
There are books but no shelves
There is a moon but no sun
There is hell but no heaven
There are bunnies but no hares
There is killing but no murder

See anything in common? If you do, then Ssssh, don't say it out loud!

Bea
01-04-2008, 07:33 PM
I think that i really don't get it. :(

Mossybird
01-04-2008, 07:36 PM
Ok this is a hard game! I still dont totally understand it...OHHH! I know what it is! I think...

Rosie
01-04-2008, 07:36 PM
It's really obvious to me, but yes, it is confusing to all of you.

Rosie
01-04-2008, 07:37 PM
Ok this is a hard game! I still dont totally understand it...OHHH! I know what it is! I think...

If you do know it, PM me or something, just don't say it out loud LOL

Aly
01-04-2008, 07:45 PM
Sorry Rosie...I'm still lost......

Rosie
01-04-2008, 07:48 PM
Ok, a big clue - you have to think about the lettering of the words. Think about it....

Think about what all the clues have in common.

Laura
01-04-2008, 07:52 PM
I love games!!! but I am lost on this one :blush:

Bea
01-04-2008, 07:54 PM
Can you maybe write this one out with all the clues and then the answer and explain why it works that way. For me that's the easiest way to learn a game, to see a practice one laid out in front of me.

birdboykaufman
01-05-2008, 12:50 AM
I'm almost sure I know it.

I'm the same i have to see it done to know how it works.

Rosie
01-05-2008, 06:00 AM
birdboykaufman has got it.

Can you maybe write this one out with all the clues and then the answer and explain why it works that way. For me that's the easiest way to learn a game, to see a practice one laid out in front of me.

Unfortunately, there is only one version to this game and you will find out when you have got it. I would, but this game only lasts until everyone has got it. When everyone knows, it is game over. There is only one design of this game and that is the one we are playing now. So, sorry - I really can't. :(

If you look at all the clues I have given you, what has the first word got that the second word hasn't? ;)

Rosie
01-05-2008, 08:19 AM
Tia has got it.

In the Yellow Wood Door there are floors but no tiles, Cockatoos but no cockatiels...

Tia
01-05-2008, 08:56 AM
Come on guys! It's easy 'cos she gave you a huge clue! :D

Rosie
01-05-2008, 09:56 AM
Three people have got it now. Plukie, Tia and birdboykaufman. So well done to you! :)

Willow can get in, Baby can't. Actually quite a few tiels on this forum can get in.

Tia
01-05-2008, 10:23 AM

A noob(beginner) can get through but an expert can't.

Tiki
01-05-2008, 04:11 PM
spoon can but fork can not.

What about a spork? lol


I can't figure this thing out...:wacko: lol

birdboykaufman
01-05-2008, 06:06 PM
No a spork can not get through.

A bull can get through but a cow can not.

Rosie
01-05-2008, 06:12 PM
Trees can get through, no bushes though.

Bea
01-05-2008, 07:30 PM
Nope, still completely lost. :(

Aly
01-05-2008, 08:12 PM
Oh dear...I am really lost...I bet it's something really simple too..

xxxSpikexxx
01-05-2008, 10:28 PM
It is probably simple too, to bad Iam really simple :p

Laura
01-05-2008, 10:32 PM
I must be simple to...lol I so don't get it

Bea
01-05-2008, 11:21 PM

Bea
01-06-2008, 05:44 PM
I had given up too, but then i went back carefully and read all the clues, and i figured it out! :D

Poodles can get through, but labradors can't.

xxxSpikexxx
01-06-2008, 07:58 PM
Iam going to wait until the end and see the anwser and play the next one. Iam still lost :blink:

Bea
01-06-2008, 08:44 PM
This is it, there can't be another one. I can see why Rosie was saying so now, but once you figure out the rule it would be way too obvious to play again, even if you changed the rule a bit.

birdboykaufman
01-06-2008, 09:09 PM
OK, after this everyone should know it, he he:

1. Go back to page one.

2. Look through all the hints and continue through the pages and looking at the hints until your to the last page.

3. If you don't have it by then, do it again.

NOTE: It will probably be easier if you write down all the hints.

LOL, Just kidding, but it will work if you do it enough.

Bea
01-06-2008, 09:13 PM
Buffy can get through, but Mickey can't.

Ozzie and Fizzy can, but Blinkie can't.

Rosie
01-07-2008, 02:12 PM
In the Yellow Wood door, there are wheels but no cars, hell but no heaven. What do the first words have that the second word doesn't? Thats a big clue.

Aly
01-07-2008, 02:53 PM
I was never good at this stuff..sorry Rosie..

Bea
01-07-2008, 06:27 PM
Ok, a big clue - you have to think about the lettering of the words. Think about it....
