Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.
I'm from the United States. Does the pass expire?

How should we answer if there are multiple possible answers?
Quote: "CassTaylor"​How should we answer if there are multiple possible answers?
​There aren't multiple answers.
If several possible answers, any answer will be considered valid as long as the design of the coin of your answer is identical to the coin of the picture. (Note added below the picture on game page)

Pick one choice and give the details for your choice as required and if it fits, you'll be part of the pool for the draw. ;)

@pejounet

Perhaps the title should be edited to say 3rd game is currently on?
Greetings pejounet,
The coin contests always say "results on date" but it is always one day later. On what exact time do the results be released? Thank you very much.

Best,
SRL
@PJ

Thanks for fixing the title;
I don't mean to be that person but maybe you could define what you mean by "ruler of the issuer"? It's not that big of a deal because that's just an option out of three in part c) that you could choose to answer from, but maybe change it to something like "ruler coin is/can be attributed to".
Loving this game. Love treasure hunts :8D

Do the questions go from easy to hard. Because at the third game, I was toast, same with this forth!

​I don't think so.... No 2 was definitely harder than No 3.
No 5 is the hardest so far :/
Is it just me or are the results for game 2 and 3 not up?

Hi,
sorry for the delay 8~, flooding in my area caused network and power outages preventing me from connecting to post results earlier. No worries, all answers were still collected correctly as games were all set up to run automatically.

Results are online for the first 5 games and updated at top of this thread! :wiz:

6th game is up here.

There is not much I can do as what you don't like is the format itself (cumulated results vs. simple results) but not the fairness of the format:

1. Rules haven't change from the beginning - fair.
2. Everything is written on each game page from the beginning, even the draw part - fair.
3. 1 game = 1 chance to participate = 1 chance to be part of the draw = 1 chance to win a ticket i.e. 10 chances to win - fair.
4. limit of 1 win per member, also written on each game page - fair.

Format is set with simple results for these games. Maybe for future games some might be set using cumulated format.

I've put in a few right answers and I think the format of the game is about right (smiles) You have to guess right to get into the draw. Simple as that really.

A few have got me stumped. i wonder if at the end of the comp you may consider posting all the pics we had to guess with, and then the right answers.

For now I post results on the game page and include a sentence stating which part of the coin is pictured in the question. I will sum this up in one post here at the end.
