Winners will be drawn at random from all participating players who complete The Golden Jigsaw before the closing date, which will be announced as the game progresses.

So it isn't the FIRST person who completes it. Much nicer community when it's a random drawing from all who have done all the legwork. So all who complete it though to the end have a fair chance.

Did anyone ever think they would really have $1 million to give out as a prize? And because the money pool has been reduced, is that going to discourage the current player base? Doubtful. You know you're addicted. Admit it Razz

Now it's just more realistic.

I feel a tad bit mad. I put alot of time into this and the prize is changed from 1 mil. to 10,000.00. I don't know much about prize law, but I noticed that they have been advertising in press releases:

"The prize money is underwritten."

So what does that mean if prize money is "underwritten"? I would think that either it means:

1) they had no intention ever to sell enough pieces to complete the game to reach a million dollars, so they bought an insurance policy just in case they did.
2) Someone put up the money and now they are going to renig on it?

For example, here is a link - read the last sentence about the underwritten part:

edited: Bruce, you got an e-mail? I didn't and there is no announcement on the website yet.

I've only just got my e-mail about it.
I'm a bit fed up after all the time spent to find this out. They should have never launched it until they had sold all the pieces

I am having a problem with all of this.

On the page, I only see 64 pieces, not 100.
On my jigsaw board, I see 65 pieces.
In my folder I have 69 pieces.

How about anyone else?

I have 100 pieces on my jigboard, and how did you get the another one piece?
I don't really understand.

I noticed that after collecting all the pieces, and putting them in my folder, and then opening the jigsaw board, there were 101 pieces listed in the column. When I was placing my pieces, I noticed that there was one piece with a different name. It was called "New Piece" instead of "Jigsaw Piece" in the right hand column of the board.

I am assuming this was the extra piece. But now I placed it and don't know which one it was.

101 pieces

I have got the 100 from the home site of The Golden Jigsaw, and I put them in my folder, then open the Jigboard, there are 100 pieces listed.
Can you send the extra one to me?
