Again, I quote this...

  • All of the words are taken from the Bond films and relate to titles, character names and major plot devices ie ATAC.
...F-I-L-M-S :)

You know that one of those facts is wrong right? It may be that one.

Why would Matt post a wrong fact?

Oh... I missed that... THAT's EVIL!

I would guess that one of these was the false one... but then I could be wrong...
  • 2. There are more than 20 words related to Bond within the puzzle.
  • 3. The name of the Spy is 7 characters long.

I think it is the film one.

As I have found 20 words and I have seven letters remaining.

L, M, A, N, B, O, A

Thhis could be wrong, but I am going with it.

Well I don't see why not, it has to be counted. It fits well into the rules, no different than Saxby or James for example.

with those 19 words, there are 8 letters left.

Which makes me think that the last word is M, leaving 7 letters.

Two of which are DR. Based on the answer in the FAQ thread of the last name being involved, makes me think that it is Dr. something.
