For Q2 on stage 3 I tried Golden State warriors; Klay Thompson, Stephen Curry; Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson.
Any of them worked, but they looked like they could :(

Correct format from 1 stage is First name Last name & First name Last name.

So what was the answer then? I can't see it in the ITH.
I'm excited I (technically not but whatever) was able to solve one!
Comment has been collapsed.
FML. I actually checked the first puzzle before answering, and I don't know why (hello lack of sleep) I thought it was [FirstName Secondname, Firstname Secondname].
I just checked again and it is with &, as you say,.
Well, I can still dream one day I'll solve one of this super complicated group puzzle items..

I'm so confused, lol, what are you two talking about?
Question 1 or 4?

Q2, splash, supermario bross. Are we on the same puzzle?

Maybe my browser is glitching, here it says the correct answer was splashtop...is it showing me the wrong answer?
Comment has been collapsed.
If you answered something, I think that answer remains there. I had as a correct answer Golden State Warriors.
Try typing Stephen Curry & Klay Thompson

Ah, cool, thanks, weird that, I refreshed lots, still giving the wrong answer. I was already puzzled why I didn't get the credit for my wrong answer :P
there we go, closed the tab, started a new tab, correct now :)
Now lets interrogate bartsmith :)
Comment has been collapsed.
What made you think splashtop was the right answer? I was pretty sure since the first picture that it was relatd with the splash brothers, I was just wrong with format.
Comment has been collapsed.
I had no idea there was a splash brothers theory, heck, i didnt know they existed :P
My pokemon theory fit perfectly too, but that was incorrect....

Sadler said: Indeed the movie Shawshank redemption is just a distraction... the real clue is with the rain. If you find the answer to Q7 you should be able to find the answer to Q6 and vice versa.
BartSmith replied: Your hints helped :-)

BartSmith said: Question 6 & 7 solved :-)
m3rc replied: Ah cool, good job. I don't watch a lot of youtube so I never thought to look there. :)
BartSmith replied: I don't know these guys as well. I've combined "rain" & "Apex" & used Google.

tried to use BartSmith methof of googleing thing and found things related to Forbes (4 ways to help your team adapt to change) but can't find the answer if it's related with that. maybe the 123 RF has a utility too.

1 and 2 should be related, so I'm looking for ice/snow estates...like...Arendelle castle from Frozen...
Comment has been collapsed.
Maybe it's a pun for STATE since it's related to ice, like Ice-Ice baby or something.
Or someone's winter estate/palace.
Comment has been collapsed.
I considered that, but couldn't find anything of use since as far as I can tell, all categories had something.
Unless I'm wrong:
Formats:
I forgot to mention, should you ever need to write down the name of an organisation let's say for example FBI then this is the format: Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Music: [Artist name] - [song name](ACDC)
Youtube: Name of the channel / youtuber (Casper lee one should have been Caspar apparently)
Movies - tv show: [Movie/tv title] - [year of release] (Max, Arrow)
Program: [name of the program] [version if applicable for example; pro, ultimate, cloud...](fraps)
Sports: [Full name of the team](golden state warriors)
In the event the answer is two person this is the format: [First name Last name] & [first name last name] (Stephen Curry & Klay Thompson)
For video games simply enter the game title (LOL)
Sometimes you might be required to enter a name format is [Character name](Han Solo)
If you are required to enter a website ignore the www. and any other extension such as .ca, .com, .net etc. Example: the answer for www.amazon.com would be amazon(twitch)
"It can be about movies, programs, music, science, anatomy, youtube, internet, sports and so much more. "
No idea what right or spectre are.
Comment has been collapsed.
I could have overlooked this one:
"I forgot to mention, should you ever need to write down the name of an organisation let's say for example FBI then this is the format: Federal Bureau of Investigation."
If so, I'm guessing it's some sort of environmental/ anti-global warming/ protect the poles type organization.
I tried
United States Environmental Protection Agency/Environmental Protection Agency
Greenpeace
UNEP
UNFCCC
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
Kyoto Protocol
American Association for the Advancement of Science
American Geophysical Union

Throwing out an idea:
Desmond Donahue from Ian A. O’Connor’s "The Wrong Road Home"
or Connor's Journey, a Velvet Glove story
Working on stories which have characters with the 2 names
Alt.
name meanings: Meaning of Desmond: "one from south Munster", Meaning of Connor: "lover of hounds", Meaning of Conway: "hound of the plain"
Alternative spellings: Conner, Connor, Conor
Tried:
Assassin's Creed - 2016 / Assassin's Creed: The Movie / Assassin's Creed: The Movie - 2016

Connor Davenport
Conor McCreery

Conner's story in Assassin's Creed III is about the American Revolution, Desmond's story is about saving the world from the apocalypse and sacrifice. I don't know something about revolution maybe?
Comment has been collapsed.
Based on the timestamp of the video the important part was "It's time for the world to know my name", that being Connor.
Or Desmond, or both

I know, I give the "puzzles" a shot, throw 20 mins of guesses at it and leave it for a few days.
Since they are about knowing/ connecting random things it requires bruteforcing or knowing what OP was thinking.
But you did pretty well so far, we're at the final stretch.

Edit: found something I thought could be related to the answer (but wasn't) and posted a link which I wasn't supposed to do :D

He set a rule of not sharing links, and didn't list books in the categories.
you can try author/characters.

Ah, I didn't know that, doesn't matter now since I was completely wrong though. Someone was able to solve it, somehow, the answer makes no sense to me.

Q6

Tried:
Netflix
MGM
Warner Bros./Warner Brothers/Warner Bros/Warner Bros. Records/Malpaso Records

Gotta put that beat on replay, don't worry 'bout what they say
Even the hands on the broken clock are right two times a day.
Stay on the ground no delay, lay back cuz I'm on my way
To detonating, I'm taking anything that stays on my way, right.
(C)
Tick tick tick, rocking in the fast lane

Might help if we knew what categories the answers left belong in...

One down. The comments in the video had the answer.
Two down.
Three down somehow
No books right? (Can't see it in the categories)

"His name is Connor (you guys figured that out) and in AC3 you follow the story of Connor, but you also follow Desmond story (via the animus). If Connor was alive he would probably say something like this is our story."
This is backwards. Desmond is who you follow when you are outside the Animus.
