In many of my posts above I kept using rite, as a hidden clue.

Yeah that's the issue, I figured a bunch of combos around the words RA TIE RN TIE AN TIE and rejected the last 2 (RN TIE and ANTIE) as having no combo of words that made sense. Hence I went with RA TIE. But if you say it's RN TIE (TRINE), well, only word I know from that combo is NITRE and it does not fit (had considered and rejected earlier). Unless I'm missing something obvious, the answer is a word I don't know. TENIR TINER ENRIT RITEN F*ck knows the (im) possibilities seem endless.

NameGoesHere Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) My guess is last word is probably something that suggests either irreversibility, or finality (if referring to cremation) or 'correctness' if referring to the "retain power of investigation" bit. I'll try this later unless someone does it anyway. Edited April 5, 2020 by NameGoesHere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mariyam Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 Q18 Identify the company 1. The founder of this company served in WWII in a suicide quad whose task was to ram enemy ships with explosives. Miraculously he survived. 2. Just after the war he founded a fishing net making company. In a few years he was the market leader in his country in that space. 3. When plastic based fishing equipment was introduced, this company lost its competitive edge. So the company decided to use its technical know how and are market leaders (across the world) in an unrelated field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
