I received my leitmarks last Thursday, and since nobody mentioned anything about hearing from Cognivia or the Perplex City Academy, I dropped the PerplexCity.com people another e-mail Friday morning. I just got a response back (Thank you random anonymous perplexcity.com person!... They really should have an ID number or something so you could forward thanks to the right person, but I digress).

Why use a shovel when an electric cattle prod works just as well?

I hope I was on the "right" list. I certainly guessed enough times Razz

It's been so long, I've moved house since I entered 'Mary Poppins' as an answer.

Likewise. When I put my answer in, I was a measly undergraduate, without my shiny degree in Classical Studies. That's changed since then, as has my location.

I'm sure you've all seen it by now, but Macavity has received a package of cards from Cognivia.... With the correct answer apparently being lightbulb.[/url]

Well, excellent! Now I get to wait for a week or two and see if I was one of the first hundred Razz

Good that it's resolved, though Smile

No, they were sent out from New York which means the UK folk get to wait. I got mine today and I'm in MN. Macavity got his yesterday and he lives in NY.

Ah, it's finally over. I got my "testing materials"... a single pack of cards, like everyone else so far. After a delay of a couple of months, I thought maybe there would be something a little more... creative, more unique. Not sure why it took so long just to open up three booster boxes and send out the packs.

All that said, Mind Candy didn't need to send out free cards to anyone, and you can't really complain about receiving free stuff. I got a silver, Water Music. I took some pics of the package, the envelope material is shiny but somewhat transparent, so you can see the pack of cards. I didn't notice anything unusual about anything, and there is nothing on the back of the letter or any of the labels.

My Pack also contained no silver, but interesting to think that the pack's were labeled by CNV which is based in Perplexcity, but the packs are printed by mind candy from the CRT's designs. Oh, and the return address is from a company unrelated to either. So how did Cogniva send a whole bunch of "testing materials" to earth when it is suposed to be impossible(sorta) to use the perplexcity-earth link for objects? I guess I'll just forget about it.

I expect Cognivia told Mind Candy (who then told these other guys?) to just "send them some of those puzzle cards you're working on" or somesuch, since they can't get any of their physical material over here.
