Tue, 27 Oct 2009 03:50:18 +0000 http://www.gobblin.net/?p=1121#comment-6455 I actually managed to come up with the answer after about an hour or so of trying. I was just about to give up for the day when I had the brainstorm of where to place the Duke, Dutchess, and Mistress Bloach and everything fell into place. I think I'm much better at this type of riddle than word problems (Like the first Skubs riddle). I'll have to make myself a little cardboard medal to celebrate being the first correct submitter. And your idea about how to dish out prizes sounds pretty good. I'm intrigued by the idea of winning some of Chris' artwork, though I think if you offered something like the picture Chris drew of Young Jareth you might start a feeding frenzy XD I actually managed to come up with the answer after about an hour or so of trying.

Oh well, I already have the three Labbys and I imagine the Dark Crystal would be one of the other ones, so I'm not out much. Congrats, winners! :) I love logic puzzles, you should do more in the future. Shoot, I had it but did not get picked.

That said, if it was a race, you would have won as yours was the first correct answer! re: prize packs, as long as the prices are the same as these, I won't let the same person win the grand prize multiple times. When the release of volume 4 gets closer, I wan to have some super-special prizes though, like original art from Chris or other one-of-a-kind prizes, and in those cases, I don't want to exclude previous winners.

We'll just have to win it when the prize is a first edition of Volume 4 :P I gotta say though, I like not having the prize rounds be a race. The number generating thing is a good way to go, that way the only thing that matters is that you got the right answer (And BTW, 37 entries? Wow!) Congrats to the winners, you should send pictures of yourself enjoying the spoils of victory to Jake! ((Question for you Jake about future riddles: If you win at one round, are you allowed to enter any more? I assume you'd be able to guess the ones that don't have prizes but are previous winners excluded from future prize-winning rounds?))
