Wow... I seem to be at a stand-still.....

Spoiler

I can't get the axe out of the log. I've learned to yodel-still can't win, put termites on clogging area, Need snow shoes, put log in shoe maker--didn't work. Need to get fish for pickled herring, broke net but can't take ball and raquette. Need to get weight lifter to gain 2 pounds....whew!

[close]

BUT, I'm stuck! LOL.....what little thing am I missing?

As far as the weight lifter goes:

Spoiler

There's an old saying among dishonest scientists and politicians: if you can't change the thing that's being measured, change the thing doing the measuring. . .

That will open up a couple options which may eventually

Spoiler

help with the axe.Ã,  A little.Ã,  Make sure you read and take the poster that's over the log.

As far as the

Spoiler

snow shoes

, I'm still stuck, too, but I suspect that that has to do with the

Spoiler

tenns players.Ã,  After all, a pair of tennis rackets looks pretty much similar to a pair of snow shoes.

Fisher I am completely stuck too, but I can help you move on a little bit,

Spoiler

you have to adjust scale, use the knife. Tell him to weigh himself again. Ã, Then you can take the powder. Go back to where the contests are, turn on the tap and while man is turning it off put the powder in his drink of water. You should be able to win the yodeling contest.
I still have to figure out all the other stuff too, I had thought of using log that the termites had been in to try and make clogging shoes but now that you have tried that I know thats not right. So much for that idea lol.We probably have to get the good log where the axe is for the clogging shoes. I can't get net either, I tried swapping the shotput ball but that didn't work.

Spoiler

I've got two thoughts about the pie. Ã, One is that there's a secret door somewhere -- some pixel that, if you click on it, you come out the other door up there next to Helga. Ã, The other is that, when you get the tennis ball, you can throw that to get the pie. Ã, I'm suspecting that the "replacing the tennis ball with a shot put" is a good idea, because I've managed to dye my shot put green, and it's now the same color as the tennis ball. Ã, But it lacks the stripe that the tennis ball has. Ã, I'm wondering if a bandage or something from the first aid kit might make an appropriate line, but the first aid kit is for "injured guests only," and it seems possible that the idea is that the pie, which is "something red" is supposed to fall on your head in order to make you LOOK injured. Ã, So, IF the tennis ball is the way to get the pie, then the pie's not the way to get the tennis ball. Ã, And if the pie's the way to get the tennis ball, the tennis ball's not the way to get the pie. Ã, Dunno, really.

THANK YOU, Joyce....

I think I've caught up with you. It appears we are stuck in the same area.

Spoiler

Look at the sign that's at the beginning of town. Then, 'talk' to the area. It appears you need a STRONGER voice to create an avalanche....(I haven't gotten further). Maybe this is how the pie will fall....

[close]

[Joyce]

This game is addicting lol. [I just won clogging contest but thats interesting theory about avalanche and getting pie. Did you read Xiphias's ideas too, lot of ideas there too. I also had not dyed shotput green, have to figure out how to do that [/spoiler]

[Xiphias]

Okay, I'm stuck in Kierkollamagaarde. Ã, I've got some suspicions of what I'm supposed to do, but I'm pretty much stuck on how to go about doing it. . .

Spoilers for many things I've done so far, and much speculation:

Spoiler

First, supposition about the long-range goal. Ã, I suspect that the point is to get Frieda to sound the Yetimancer alarm, which should set of an avalanche, and bury the baron. Ã, In order to do that, I suspect I need to dress up as a giant yeti, which will probably require the stilts, and the yeti-skin coat.

Anyway, I suspect that one gets the stilts by getting the cuckoo clock working, which may knock over the stilt walker. And one gets the cuckoo clock working by getting the clock winder married to Helga, which one gets by giving Helga a jar of pickled herring. Ã, I've got the pickles, and I can see the fish. Ã, But I can't get any fish. Ã, Perhaps I need things from the "snowshoe path".

I've won two contests in the Leiderhoedown, but can't figure out how to win a drinking contest when I'm underage. Ã, If I can do that, that should get me the coat.

I suspect that swapping the shot put for the tennis ball might help get the tennis ball and the tennis rackets, which I suspect may be usable as snowshoes. Ã, But, although I've dyed the shot put green, I've not managed to put a tennis-ball like stripe on it.

I also have a feeling that I might be able to use Helga's pie to fake an injury in order to use the first aid kit. Ã, No idea what's in there or if anything would be useful.

So: the things I'm working on:
1. Putting a stripe on a shot put
2. Finding a way up to Helga
3. Finding a way to get fish
4. Winning an underage drinking contest.

Any thoughts? Ã, Anything I'm missing?

WOOHOOO....ya'll will LOVE this.....(I hope!)

Spoiler

Turn the shotput green by putting it in the drinking barrel at the competition. THEN, go cut the net of the tennis players. While they are fixing the net, switch the green shot put with the tennis ball...get the tennis raquettes. Use pocket knife to cut jump rope....blend with raquettes....VOILA! Snow shoes.....

Yup, that did it!  I think I was overthinking things. . . .

Good work now I am definitely taking a break.

[Fisher]

I'm having trouble getting back into the shop where the lady can make the yetti sound.

I can open and close the door; however, when I hit the 'walk' mode, I automatically walk back into the furrier store! ?

Is this happen' to you, too? Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong?

It's finicky. Ã, The doors are small targets and hard to hit. Ã, But I'd suspect that, if you got in once, you can do it again.

[Fisher]

Hmmmmm....maybe there's something else I should be doing...

Spoiler

I KNOW that I need a stronger sound to cause avalanche but can't get back into lady's shop. I have won the contest and got the certificate for the coat and I also have the stilts but NOW I can't get into the furrier shop!!!

[close]

HELP!!! (LOL)

how did you win the certificate for coat? I have got the yeti teeth and stilts but I need coat and can't for the life of me figure out how to win the contest because I am underage

You need something from the first aid kit. Ã, Actually, you need to use the thing from the first aid kit twice, once to help you get herring, and once to help you win the drinking contest. Ã, Don't worry -- once you've got it working, you'll simply lie and explain that you JUST turned 21.

Naw, the doors are STILL small and finicky.  Just be very, very precise in clicking.
