The Rules
1. I'll give you a cryptic clue. Your job will be to decode it. 2. The cryptic clue may use an arcane code or a code you might already be aware of. Your challenge will be to pick the right code to crack open my cryptic clue. You can take the help of the net to get up to speed about the arcane codes. 3. Usually, the level of difficulty might offer you a hint about whether to use an arcane code or not. 4. There are many levels of difficulty. The highest level is called codi5 you can't crack it. The level of difficulty will be indicated using tags. 5. You get a day to solve a puzzle. The first person to crack a puzzle gets 5 points or a fiver. Sometimes, I might use my discretion and award 10 points to the deserving. 6. Puzzles that haven't been solved will be labeled as Unsolved. The answers for the same will never be disclosed.

ReplyDeleteRafael Nadal...Federer was beaten by him 9-7 in the 5th set in 2008 Wimbledon Finals.
ReplyDeleteDunno whether this is the solution or jus a coincidence...
ReplyDeleteOne of the ISD codes for Palestine is 9708 and Rafah is a city in Palestine...
Rafah -> Rafa -> Rafael Nadal ???
9708 -> ISD Code for Gaza Strip -> Gazza -> Nick name of Paul Gascoigne…
ReplyDeleteInterestingly Gazza is also the nickname of Garry Kasparov…
Another point to note is the following are telephone codes for 2 administrative districts in Palestine - Gaza Strip...
9708 20X XXXX - Khan Yunis Governorate -> Younis Khan
9708 21X XXXX - Rafah Governorate -> Rafael Nadal
Gascoigne looks right to me.
