Welcome to the party - Svab, mhl_jsh, Saumila. You've all picked up the concept pretty fast.

Try eliminating the excess characters as much as you can.

Like Ratan Tata could've been

"For a tangential career, he's pretty fit at an advanced age"

Till Saumila comes up with the next one, here's something to dig into:

What an illuminated display of fielding - pick, fumble, throw.

Why don't you say hello to the rest of the gang here and join the fan list. The more the merrier.

Even the clue of 'cricketer' would've been enough... This one was too simple...

Clues would certainly help me get this one.

Here's the last one (#2) from the Onnicle Challenge series. This one may take a while. So solve it at leisure.

The onnicle below hides the names of 10 Nobel prize winners in literature.

All Simple, no Tricky ones (Check out the FAQ to find out what that means). Internet usage is allowed, and encouraged. See if you can identify all of them.

Onnicle 2:
Samuel Cortez invented the first Naval long gun. His prototypes would burst into flames and the fire would char old Sam's eyebrows leaving the ship in terrible shape. On receiving a telegram from the king of Spain he mounted his new invention on his ship and joined an armada to the Pacific. The sight of the Gun terrified the natives of the grasslands and Sam the conquistador island hopped his way across the Isles single handledly enslaving everyone over 50. Later realizing that the telegram had meant "Gold" not "Old", he undertook another voyage to return the elders to the natives and rob them of their gold.

On his death bed he called in his son Albert to light candles and read from the Gideons Bible. "Son", he said "I now realize how ill I am". His obsession with refining gold ingots had taken a toll on his health. He had tried everything from melting them down to sending them to Europes finest finishing schools.

After his death, Albert ran downtown's only bar 'Citrus', selling drinks to broadway actors. Even during the depression the Cortez family lead a lavish lifestype. A typical dinner consisted of Lobster Thermidor, hand picked truffles, smoked spam ukranian style, soup made from weaver nests and braised bear-claws done traditionally in the Ming way of cooking. He drank vodka and tonic and drove a classic white morris on weekends.

His son Sam Jr, ashamed of the family's past, became an artist and drew oleanders and lilacs on greeting cards. These cards used rice paper and soy ink and were edible.

Grondmaster's previous onnicle is also unsolved.

Well friends I had a dream last night. There was a snake charmer staring at me. Scared I kept running and worked my way up the arduous hill. Reached the zenith and braced myself to fight that fellow taking out the guns in my pocket. Then wondered why did I run at all? And then I woke up... Come on nothing can be ore stupid than this dream......

For Envenomed: In the next attempt you could try to keep it crisp. Avoid too many buffer characters.

Not sure about Sholay...as one would've thought 'Sardar bahut khooosh hoga' and that would've been the clue for the next one.

Would request you not post the answers to that one here. Let others have shot at it as well.

Do come back here as Pratyush's previous onnicle is still waiting for its knight in shining armour.

Update: Several have been able to find 9 names. No one's cracked it completely yet. So the field is still open.
