If it's four characters, why are there at least five in the clue?

Oh I'm sorry, I really didn't know that.
But as I've already mentioned that the number of characters in the answer is four, hope it would be ok.

But we don't know which ones they are!
Suppose your "code" was ". _ _ ." - that's four characters, but the first and last pair are identical, and so are the middle ones. Which means that the target word also needs the same patten: "NAAN" or "BOOB" for example. But we don't know if your characters should be read as "._ _ _ ." or ". _ _ _." which would give a different pattern in the target word.

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Sorry, then I just messed things up. None of the four is same as the other.

But look, people are just about to reach the answer Big Grin | :-D

You do know that every character stands for 1 letter if you do not declare otherwise?

Yeah just came to know. I'm really very sorry for messing this up.

I've already mentioned the number of characters in the answer.
Is that OK or should I repost it with four characters?

Well you talked about it with OG and i'd suggest to repost, because yeah in this case we don't get the pattern :/

Basically yes. On the other hand you broke the rules and will be punished with ten pixels thrown at your back Laugh | :laugh:

It's fine, but remember for the next time to do it correctly Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

Nope, P0mpeyBoy's answer is very close to the correct one. They call the same thing something else too.

Yes, Bowl is the right answer.

It's bowl, we use in kitchen.
