Has anyone ever made a definitive list of meanings of the Hint Oracle hints?
Reading through them on the encycopedia, I don't remember what a lot of them mean, or refer to.
If there isn't one, we can start one in this thread - list the Hints and your interpretation of what they mean, and when we've got a full list we can submit it to the encyclopedia or something. Or alternatively if this has already been done (I looked but didn't find anything) then let me know and I won't bother.

Why wait till you have a full list?
Start putting whatever you have on the DungeonMaster wiki.
Start a page somewhere called "CSBHintOracle" or whatever.
Then everyone can see what exists and they can add whatever
they are able in the way of questions, comments, or information.

Yes, this is the sort of thing that should go in the Wiki, which you can find here:

The CSB maps on my web site show the locations associated to each hint. The meaning of hints seem obvious to me when you see the location they refer to. What 'interpretation' do you need? Have you some examples of cryptic hints?
