    hoytedow Fly on the Wall - Miss ddt yet?

    I will say only this.:

    1. It looks like Russians against probably Turks

    2. Between 1712 and maayyybe early 1800's.

    I will not go further on this quest.

    1. It was the Turks and ......... against another allied party of whom the Russians were a partner.

    2. Forget the first three words and the first nr.

    So, Where . . . ? ? ? :)

    Good Luck!

    Without this: Dont forget to Post Feedback for me and Vote Positive Rep Points just to drive Apex1 Nuts!

    you will make fewer enemies. The shine has worn off of it.

    Didn´t we have the Wostotschnaja woina a while ago?

    And the wicked *** is not welcome! It is not only this thread he hijacked several times. And his behavoiur is not what I like to deal with. Neither is his dumb request for positive points just to bother me. Though it seems to function, there must be many more idiots around here, than just this one!

    So then,

    bye, bye

    The Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse in Maine. The answer was in the URL of the pic.

    But you have to guess one right to have a turn here. Or it can be given to you by one who's turn it is. But there is one running now. So, take your chance . . . .

    Good Luck :)

    That's a Russian gunboat and torpedo boats on the Danube in the Russo-Turkish War 1877–1878. But there were no engines involved in this quest.

    As you can see for yourself the boats in your picture are very different from the ones in the quest. You just posted it to frustrate this game. So, Richard is right about this, you won't play along despite my invitation to do so.

    No Regards, invitation withdrawn, and I'm sorry I made a misjudgement on the possibility of you improving your behaviour.

    I made a misjudgement there Richard. See my above post. I sure hope that's not a reason for you to leave this thread.

    Regards,

    I'm sorry that my misjudgement of the Wicked's capabilities to improve, and comming back from that, made you leave. I hope you will reconsider soon or later. With strong preference for the former.

    Regards,
    Angel

    I must note WG did remove the offending points signature. Perhaps some movement in a positive direction?

    It still looks like a Russian flag to me in both paintings.

    Not the place and the time we're looking for Hoyt. Wicked posted a painting of the Russo-Turkish War 1768-1774. See the Battle of Chesma for the painting. As stated before we're looking early 1800's and on a another place. Wicked is just frustrating the game as he doesn't have a clue and ignore the ones given.

    Here fight 2.jpg another painting of the event we're looking for.

    The first one I gave was made by an eyewitness.

    Here town.jpg the nowadays town at the bay.

    Good Luck!
