Yep, me too. There were so many server probs (well it felt like it anyway), but it was a little reassuring knowing that we were probably all having the same issues so I'm fairly confident I was one of the first 333 to submit my address. If not, where are all the other people?

BTW - I've never seen the forum so full as it was between 3pm and 4pm!!!

Ok, so if London is six hours ahead of Central Standard time, or DMT as I like to call it, (DorkMasterTime, that is), then I submitted my answer at just around 4:45pm London time... not too good. But I'm hoping GuyP is right, and that our efforts will all yield us results...

And like I said in the puzzle area, can I just say that even though this was not a brain-bending riddle, I am VERY happy to have solved it! I don't feel like the dufus I felt like in ILB. Laughing You know, I wasn't getting too involved in PPC, but of course, now I'm all drawn back in and stuff... ARGs rule! W00T!

Yeah, I noticed that, too - but I think it was because we all realized quite quickly it was a very simple riddle and that we'd all get it quickly enough - I mean, as soon as I got my brain to stop thinking 'pizza' (it was 7:00am my time when the email came, I hadn't had breakfast yet!), I had the solve in ten minutes tops.

I think we all just wanted, justifiably so, to get the solve and snab a souvenir of the ARG -- when we're facing real puzzles, I doubt we'll all be so selfish... doubt... unless there is indeed a huge cash prize...

I think I got in! I was so happy that I was able to solve the puzzle quickly. I rushed right up to submit my solve and the site didn't update when it said it would, so I was late for work.

Darn good thing I'm the boss! Smile

I was in such a rush, I hope I put everything in correctly.

I finally got my email

I think I sent my response in around 4:10 GMT. It was 11:10 here and I'm in Eastern Time.

Hopefully I made it in time.

A little OT, but, I sent Scarlett an email asking her if she would let us know on her blog how many people replied the first day, and if she would give us a name of the "cutoff" person (#333). Who knows? Maybe we'll be able to piece together the list of playaz who got themselves submitted in time (*DM is still knocking on any wood-like substance he comes across throughout the day)

I was just wondering if anyone else had their city and country already filled in on the submit form? I was surprized to see my information was already filled in on the form.

I think(I know) I spelled my province wrong in my rush! Saskatchewan, if the pm's are reading. hahaha!

edit caused I spelled it wrong again!
