Too bad I didn't get picked this week. I'm pretty sure I can get all these.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Question #3:

a) It's the Wonder Wheel at Coney Island, which is located in Brooklyn, New York.

c) The park's name was Dreamland and the ride that caused the fire was called 'Hell's Gate'

I shouldn't have wasted all that time trying to look up the bodies of water for...

Question #3

b) Atlantic Ocean, Coney Island Creek, Gravesend Bay, and Sheepshead Bay

Old map of Coney Island.


Someone please double check that for me! I think the map clinches it for me.

Didn't know whether I was pleased or not when my number finally came up in the third round of the draw!
Finally found all the answers (I think), although I admit to 'cheating' by using my daughter as an extra google searcher.

Anyhow, thought I did it as fast as I could, but come on here and find you're all way ahead of me! Enjoyed it though.

Sent my answers off and wanted to thank all those who knew how to find things faster than me. lol I always thought I was good at googling. Anyway, it was fun and I appreciate those who are so willing to share their finds.

Its not cheating.. its utilizing available resources. Come on here next time. Most of us have decided to post help for the contestants as we ARE a community here.

and.. may I just say... third round??? I dont think any of us expected a third round of drawing.. the site never mentioned one. Though, i suppose if they didnt have enough contestants, it makes sense. I'm just glad my number wasnt in the third round, cause I'd be PISSED that I missed it.

makes me wonder.... Last week it was in the second round that players got lucky, this time its mainly in the third...wouldnt we expect it to be normally distributed?

I wonder if these extra numbers give us a code?

I think that there are just lots of tickets out there and not everyone who has these tickets is online at that time on a Saturday. In order to get adequate number of players (I think the initial goal is 6), on June 3rd the PM had to resort to a third wave.

If it was a planned coded message, then this third wave would have been planned from the start and included in the rules.

Remember, if you number was drawn but you were unavailable for the contest - email the webmaster as previously instructed to be entered into the second chance drawing for next week!

I was in last night's puzzle contest also.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Gift Ticket ===375080
Admit One Tic=2874300
Mystery Code=EIWXXRE
Secret Word = CAPTURE

I think it's safe to reveal this now. Don't know if these are supposed to be shared and a clue is revealed or not.
I've also been playing PerplexCity and I believe the first 333 cards that went out contained a number and a letter
to be combined to reveal a hidden clue. So, I thought this might be the case with these. But so far it's looking doubtful.

In Alphabetical Order:

Arcades, Balloon, Bandage, Barrens, BigTalk, Capture, Changes or Chances, Lantern, Morning, MyPrize, MyQuest, NJP----, Popcorn, Stories, TheMoon

Oh well, I tried.

Sylvia - not sure if you should reveal all your details or not, if you don't qualify for the final through last nights puzzles, then you're not elegible for next weeks draw, but you are allowed to enter the one after that (if your ticket comes up). Tho' I doubt if anyone could enter as you as they'd have to know your other ticket numbers (unless the same one came up). But it's best to be on the safe side.
