I was right

I was positive he was saying "Curry" on the tape, so I entered that first, later on I entered the Cherry St. address just in case.

Can't wait for my 10 cent coupon.

Correct answer for address

It was easy to realize that Grant was behind it all along. He had a company who's stock was falling and money was getting tight. He knew that if Freevira didn't get released, he'd have a whole world of trouble on his hands. Andrew, being the community involved scientist he is, went to Grant about Freevira's side effects. Grant did two things after that. He arranged Andrew's abduction/murder and joined up with Zelnore? or whatever that companies name is, to be able to distribute Freevira without regulation. I would've been suprised if it wasn't Grant because this game isn't like the ARG's we're used to solving. Yep, that's it. Now its time to eat the Applebee's.

Yep. I got it right. As to the people who used the 2 shots at the answer... I think your 2nd answer is the one that "counts." If I remember right, I think Christina says something like, "Your answer has been accepted. If you feel it is incorrect or you have a spelling error, you can enter the correct answer... If you are satisfied with your answer, you don't need to do anything." This lead me to believe that the second attempt overrides the first one, and narrows the winner's list.

Either way, I posted this on another thread, and I think it is valid here:

I'm guessing the game was made easy at Applebee's request. The Official Rules state:

"Sponsor reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to
substitute a prize (or portion thereof) with one of
comparable or greater value."

Think about it... So many people 'win' that it isn't logical to print and mail 6,250 checks worth 25¢. So a substitution is made and we all get a $5 coupon to Applebee's. What this does, is that many people will lose or just not use them, meaning they don't have to honor them, and they are basically only out the few cents it costs to print all of them. But they WANT you to use them. Why? Because no one goes to a restaurant and only orders $5 worth of food, and usually don't go alone. This means that Applebee's makes a huge profit. I get a $10 meal, which costs me $5 with my coupon. My friend gets a $10 meal, and pays the whole amount. Add in drinks and appetizers, then multiply that by 6,250, and they make a bundle of money.

Now that Sonia is missing, is this going to lead into ANOTHER 8 day challenge with Suzuki, or is this the end of the fiasco? Think about that... why else keep the winners waiting for 2 weeks to know if they have won?

That's how I understood it as well.

I also believe the actual address had to have the number in it, as Cherry St could be any number of buildings and Andrew may not have been "found in time." Using the actual street address is more than likely the only "correct" answer.
