Grid 1:

ANUBIS | BEAT | BRISBANE | DARWIN
ELIZABETH | ERNIE | LIFT | MONTEZUMA
NAOMI | ROCKET | SKY | SPARKLE
STELLA | SYDNEY | VICTORIA | WALK

The Australian cities were obvious for 8 points, as were the female names. I don't know if Bob J actually had ex-girlfriends with those four names, but I certainly can't prove that they're not. It's getting toward the end of the series and I think we're all starting to get a little punchy.

1. DARWIN | ERNIE | NAOMI | STELLA

Satirical awards.

2. BEAT | LIFT | SPARKLE | VICTORIA

Foreign sodas made by Coca-Cola.

3. ANUBIS | ELIZABETH | SKY | SYDNEY

"Power Rangers" characters. Even more specifically, they all appear in the "S.P.D." spinoff.

4. BRISBANE | MONTEZUMA | ROCKET | WALK

Songs by "The Wiggles".

Grid 2:

AC | AVATAR | COLON | CONCH
DAGGER | DC | DELTA | DILDO
DRUM | LYNCH | POUND | RADICAL
RAMROD | SHARK | VIBRATOR | VIPER

Get your minds out of the gutter, guys. There was no sex category in this grid. :D

1. CONCH | DILDO | RAMROD | SHARK

Florida keys. Yes, Dildo Key and Ramrod Key are real places.

2. COLON | DAGGER | DELTA | POUND

Mathematical symbols.

3. DC | DRUM | LYNCH | VIBRATOR

Types of motors.

4. AC | AVATAR | RADICAL | VIPER

Comic book publishers. DC is the famous one, but that was a red herring.

6/16 + 6/17 + 6/18 Scores (6 participants)
Bob Juch - 24 + 40 + 8 = 72
smilergrogan - 4 + 8 + 16 = 28
Bob78164 - 4 + 20 + 0 = 24
kroxquo - 8 + 4 + 8 = 20
franktangredi - 8 + 8 + 0 = 16
jarnon - 0 + 8 + 0 = 8
