AGS Cryptic

[Mandle]

Ah, I was thinking:

Spoiler

"Quick" meant only first letter,"Bee" meant "B", and "GMTS" are the initials of Sting's real name...

Hey, you said: "No matter how crazy..."

[Baron]

Hey, you said: "No matter how crazy..."

What else did I say when I said that?

Another hint:

Spoiler

You weren't that far off base with your reasoning in shortening "bee", but the sting has nothing to do with Sting.  ....Yet. )

Ahh, I've got it!

Correct!   Now go out and teach others how you did it.

Stupot seems to wish his arcane methods of deduction remain a secret so I, his ARCH-ENEMY, will reveal them for all to see!!! MUUUAHAHAHAHAHAHA:

Spoiler

"quick bee sting" = be sting
then "deformed teat" = tate
Put the "quick bee sting" around the "deformed teat" and you get:
"beta testing"

Awesome puzzle by the way Baron: Very tricky in its simplicity...

Inmate Korski.  Yeah, I kinda cheated in solving it, but it's not really a cryptic clue if the solution isn't at least kinda hidden in the clue, so I have no remorse.

Amazing coincidence that the particular character from that particular game also had the exact 6,6 letter count for their name...

[AnasAbdin]

Sorry Mandle you're incorrect... I was surprised as well from baron's answer!

Spoiler

I have used StillInThe90s avatar deliberately.

Ermmmm...not a lot to go on here...I guess well could spam some answers like:

"Framed Inmate"

Do we need to have actually played the game to be able to understand how to get the answer? (I'm planning to play it very soon as it looks amazing...)

[AnasAbdin]

The answer has nothing to do with an AGS game. That's why I said it's  adventure games related only.

mega hint:

Spoiler

It's a character

[Mandle]

Hmmmm...so....

Spoiler

I'm thinking the reason that avatar was used was to point us at a game from the '90's...So:

Doctor Edison?

[Stupot]

It could be anything then:

Spoiler

Elaine Marley?

[Baron]

Something from the 90's.... Bald floating head....  I guess some pretty crazy stuff from time to time, and this is really out on a limb even for me, but I'm going to guess

Spoiler

Space Quest's Sludge Vohaul.

Baron is right! I was just going to give a written clue instead of the avatar. I'm glad you finally lowered your mind into my level and solved it

stu and Mandle's guesses are awesome. Amazing how the letters count work
