Yes, not unique.
 
I thought Comet etc would point to the answer too quickly.
 
Your turn, Lance.



LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/20/2010 9:33:47 PM)

Good that it took you so long to confirm.  I just now got one to put up:
 
Imperial
Elephant
Royal
Princess
 
Edited to adjust colors.

nm



Aylee -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/21/2010 9:07:42 AM)

Jade?



LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/21/2010 10:50:04 AM)

Nope, not colors nor types of jade.
 
Hint #1: Not unique
Hint #2: The colors (and comment about adjusting colors) have NOTHING to do with the answer.  I was just tired of all black. LOL! Especially after "Bob, A Legend returns" called me on using color and size.



EbonyWood -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/21/2010 10:54:06 AM)

Has an Asian flavor to me. Thailand?
 
Also reminds me of hotels.



dcnovice -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/21/2010 11:03:12 AM)

London tube stops?

nods nods...size issues...I knew it.

Are they cruise ships?



LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/21/2010 2:13:55 PM)

Hint #3: intenze might have stumbled across a hidden clue, but her guess is wrong.



igor2003 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/21/2010 2:25:05 PM)

types of fonts?



dreamerdreaming -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/21/2010 2:27:56 PM)

Cuts of diamonds?

Sizes or shapes of gemstones?



LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/21/2010 5:37:41 PM)

Types of fonts - warmer, but not even tepid, just warmer than any guess so far, including the guess of:
Diamonds/gemstones - which is cold as ice.

There is no hidden clue in diamonds vs. ice, just happened to see that before I hit the "send" button.

Hint #4: Nothing to do with London tube stops, although England and America (and NO other countries) shared a list which is the answer.  The list had about 20 or 25 items on it.  Then England dropped the entire list, while America continued with only 5 or 6 items.  I first picked 4 of the short, America-only list, hoping for a unique (or near-so) list.  All my choices were instantly solved by googling the quartet.  What I did to make this, difficult-to-google quartet  was take 3 from the America-only list and one from the original, joint list.

Edited to clear up a really confusing Hint #4.

Types of sailboats?



LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/21/2010 7:18:57 PM)

Hint #5: Many sailboats are made of wood, but other than that, not sure how sailboats relate to fonts.

<------ That guy is outta hints, so he types:

Somebody, anybody..... just google:

Imperial Elephant Royal Princess size America England

and read off the answer!  <LIke "Wheel of Fortune" when all the letters are exposed.... Although, I have seen people mis-read the answer! LOL!>

You see, I must get busy on a certain project and will be away from quartets for a while.  But before I leave, I need to pass the baton.

ETA: Just now 2AM local time.  G'nite, all! 



fluffypet61 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/23/2010 2:34:26 AM)

Standard paper sizes.
 
i'll be away from the computer for a few hours. 

 



fluffypet61 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/24/2010 5:11:42 AM)

So do i win?



fluffypet61 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/24/2010 5:14:04 PM)

Do i just go ahead with a quartet or wait for Lance to tell me if i am correct?



igor2003 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/24/2010 5:53:28 PM)

I would say go ahead. I think that is what he intended.



LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (2/24/2010 5:59:46 PM)

Yes, fluff.  PLEASE go ahead. I'll be "away" from Quartets for maybe as long as 2 weeks.  I absolutely MUST finish this contract computer programming job before the late penalties wipe out what little profit is to be had.  Damn you, BLoved!  Just, DAMN you! LOL!
