Did anyone ever find the final pairing clue? According to the solution, it was "Chinese Lunar Year". I've gone back through and still can't find it anywhere.
I have the same issue. I don't think we were ever given the final pairing clue. The only way anyone would have gotten the final answer would have been to guess that the number 12 which was in the last paragraph was the last clue. Which I guess lucky for them it worked out.
However for people like you and I, we were not going to waste or guesses until we had all the clues.
Fortunately it was one of my final guesses that I used in the very end. But I don't think that clue exists. I've searched and searched and still can't find it.

How silly of me, I should have know you guys would have covered all that. Let's just hope they listen to our "reviews" of their game.

im a winner... Hi. I am Tyler Hutchison. and I am guessing that I am a winner. According to the winner's list Tyler HutchiNson is a prize winner. I am pretty sure they mean me, I did enter in the correct answer sometime during friday.
However here is my problem... I have yet to receive any sort of e-mail confirmation from Riddle Productions. Last Sunday I sent them an e-mail letting them know that I have no received any e-mail from them and they have yet to respond back. What should I do? From reading some of the previous posts I am getting the feelings this is kind of a shadey deal and that I will probably never see that money...

I got a call from them this evening saying that they're going to be sending confirmation paperwork via email tonight.
I'm taking that as a good sign.

Re: im a winner... I also was listed as a winner (2nd place) in the Stranger Adventures game ending last Sat. and have heard...nothing. Tried e-mailing them and submitted through the online Web form. I guess we'll see.
Re: the 2nd pairing clue, it _was_ given; you had to click a few times on one of the photos towards the end to find the treasure chest. But there was something weird -- the first time or two that I opened the treasure chest, the scroll was blank. It was only after a few times that it finally showed the text. That definitely slowed me down...

Yes we all had the same problem with the final Treasure Clue: 6th Euler Number. However, this is not the clue in question. In the solution she"Helen" mentions the final Pairing Clue: Chinese Lunar Calendar = 12
Never saw it, it wasn't there in the first or second version of that last clue page.

Hey I also got a phone call tonight about having won. I was told I would be sent information on how to claim the prize via e-mail. It was a really great phone call and the person calling was super excited about me being a winner and telling me how I did a great job!! The phone call made me feel pretty important and was really cool, it more than makes up for the 5 days of being left in the dark. SWEEET! I can't wait for the next game.

Re: im a winner... Yes, you're right - it was the Euler # that had the scroll issue. Also it seemed to me that 61 was the 3rd Euler #, not the 6th.
Anyway, the "Chinese Lunar Calendar" was in there b/c I eventually found it and used it solve...it was a similar glitch where the first time I looked at Helen's e-mail it was cut off/incomplete or something - didn't see a pairing clue. When looking at it again later the clue was in there.
Anyway I got an e-mail w/paperwork and a call from them today...pretty psyched about that.

Have any of the winners of this contest heard anything about receiving checks? I was told it would be 2 weeks from the time they got my info, and I sent it return receipt so I know they got it on March 7. I'm not worried yet or anything, just wondering if this is the same thing everyone has heard.

I believe they told me "a couple of" weeks. I sent mine about a week late though so I don't expect to get it as quickly as others. Unless of course, they were waiting for everyone to send their info in. If so, it's probably my fault

Well, as soon as I asked that, I got an email last night concerning the tax forms and Chris said he would mail the checks today. I had wondered how they would report winnings without a SSN, and apparently that was the last hold up.
Congrats to all the winners!
