Who's playing this? None of the challenges are really THAT hard (except for today's, Day 19) I think you win something if you're one of the first 10,000 to beat it (WHo actually read ALL of the rules...?)

hm...I should probably do asearch next time..
 
Well, it seems not to be generating much discussion. Maybe the topic would fare better in GD?
 
okay then...

when do I get my cryptex...?
 
I confess that I have finally given in, and joined the group of persons reading this book, though I had promised myself to not read it. It actually seems very similar to "Foucault's pendulum", in the sense that it seems to narrate some religious intrigue, and the story also occurs in Le Ville Lumiere
 
ah...can someone explain the rules to me? If I complete phase 1 by May 11, and fill out the 2 forms, and is one of 10,000 randomly chosen finalists, I go into the final challenge?
 
Yeah, and the first 10,000 get prizes! :!)
