1$\begingroup$ @TheDragonista (I didn't DV, but) how can you tell it's an excellent collection of rebuses until the answers are published? Of the 3 solved so far, one was obvious and the other two were wild stabs in the dark not really expecting to be correct. $\endgroup$– Rand al'ThorMar 2, 2015 at 17:49

Some of these answers are a bit jokey, but then warspyking is jokey, so who knows - they might be right!

$\begingroup$ @warspyking Really? Knightleg was more like a joke, and bets just a guess! Can you edit my answer to explain the bets one better? $\endgroup$ Feb 27, 2015 at 9:34

$\begingroup$ Good, the first one is correct. (Above-board) $\endgroup$ Mar 2, 2015 at 17:58

$\begingroup$ Quite alright. Now you just need to figure out the last 2. Remember, they are cliches! $\endgroup$ Mar 2, 2015 at 18:02
