I had a bit of an adrenaline rush too. I work for my Uni on the IT helpdesk and I had some people that needed help just at the time I was supposed to submit the answer. Mangaged to get back to my desk, then remembered that I was moving soon, so I put in my GF's Address for which i didn't know the postcode! Tried phoneing her 3 times to get it, then went to look it up on the University server. Managed to find it and hey presto submitted by 15:58, I hope that was in time!

Got my solution and address in but dunno what time it was- probably nearly 4 o'clock by the time it let me all the way through without error pages popping up. after i'd submitted this came up:

Thank you for submitting your details. Please do not attempt to enter a solution to the riddle again, as your email address and code is now invalid. We will be manually checking all details, and any duplicates will be disqualified.
unlike some people have said, it says nothing about us receiving anything, or about the 333. Obviously we can all assume that's what we've given our addresses for from Sente's email, but just wanted to clarify what the submission site said.

I tried 'puzzel', but it is misspelled and it does not work.

Ok, I understand the first and 3rd and 4th, but can someone explain to me where the other letters came from? "50" just doesn't make any sense to me at all.

50 is 'L' in roman numerals

In roman numbers "50" is "L".
"Two of my second on their sides will give my final letter." A single letter that is another letter doubled has to be "double U". Turn the letter clockwise 90 degrees, and you'll get sthg. like "E".
Best, Hikey
