: Nope. The word isn't actually defined in the show
: (there's another hint), other than being the name of
: snake-shaped ray guns that hurt a whole damn lot. It's
: never actually spelled either, but the later Egyption
: phonetic scripts had no vowels ("Ra", the
: sun god, was something like the modern Rx sign, except
: it was supposed to be an eye with a teardrop in one
: corner). Thus, 'zadnikutel' would be 'zdnktl'.
: Another hint; only one hit hurts a whole damn lot. Two
: will kill, and a third with vaporize the target.
Hehe, nice try Forrest. I really didn't think that anyone payed mush attention to the words in that show, but I guess I was wrong. Considering I don't have cable, this was a hard one for me, but the show is Stargate SG-1 which airs on I believe Showtime. The Zdnaktal is a hand-held weapon that stuns, kills, vaporizes most targets (but not all) on its respective shots. Anyhow, that is the answer to your riddle, so what do I win? =)
