Janus QUIRINUS, from Roman mythology

Helka Homba

Oops, that's Janos Slynt (who had dealings with the queen)

Deusovi

Volatility

Helka Homba

and 64

Mike Q

I know there's a 2-faced god Janus and January is named after them, because he looks back (to last year) and forward (to the upcoming year)

Volatility

03:05

Deusovi

Rubio

4' It's maybe not QUARK again

Volatility

4': ✔

Rubio

17: contact

Rubio

Rubio defending: Q U O

Destructible Lemon

well, now a lot of things die

4 survives

Deusovi

8: QUIPLASH. 3: QUA.

9 lives.

Destructible Lemon

03:09

1 dies (it was quark(s))

Rubio

(there's no sense adding clues while a pass is happening, it's likely to just die immediately)

Destructible Lemon

2 was quit

micsthepick

17: was Qubit

Rubio

How is muster mark QUARK ?

Mike Q

18: What the Raven did

Destructible Lemon

03:10

@Rubio this is where the word quark comes from

Rubio

huh. learnings!

18: It's not QUOTH

Destructible Lemon

it's even on the wiki page

Mike Q

18 ✔

Helka Homba

63 was QUINCUNX, dead

Destructible Lemon

For some time, Gell-Mann was undecided on an actual spelling for the term he intended to coin, until he found the word quark in James Joyce's book Finnegans Wake:

    --Three quarks for Muster Mark!
    Sure he hasn't got much of a bark
    And sure any he has it's all beside the mark.
    — James Joyce, Finnegans Wake[49]

Helka Homba

64 QUART

micsthepick

contact 4

Destructible Lemon

2 is dead

Volatility

how was 2 quit?

Destructible Lemon

Make like a tree and leave/get out

quit semi-archaically means leave (Quit the town, building, etc.)

whereas now it means resign

Rubio

4: It's not QUOGGA ?

Destructible Lemon

03:14

I hope this explanation was illuminating

which is a whole different beast

Rubio

PASS 4

micsthepick

Rubio

Destructible Lemon
