I was absolutely, totally convinced that Niebla was Jasper. Doh! and double doh!

Not Jasper but a very nice bloke all the same.


So, Niebla: are there prizes or was the competition part of the joke?

If Niebla were here
(Although Niebla is not)
He would gladly confirm
To you little lot
That there will be a prize
For this dainty quiz
Just as soon as it's known
Who the fair winner is.

Hehe!

Anyone had an email yet?? I had one from June on Monday saying that winners would be informed by the end of this week.

I have to wait until evening to check my personal e-mails because the stoopid firewall at work claims that my webmail provider is an occult site...

If you use hotmail then they are probably correct

Still nothing here, either. Methinks Jasper wants to read all the Scribblers before prizes are allocated.

Or possibly the winners *were* notified and then someone... saw to it that they didn't gloat.

The website has been updated with answers and winners, and according to it I won the Ffordian Book Quiz outright (which is fortunate, as my Scribbler tiebreaker wasn't really up to scratch). I'm yet to receive confirmation of this lovely result in my inbox though...

Congrats and welcome! Avoid the pie if you can, otherwise I'll lend you a towel to get the worst off you afterward.

Hi Area - well done that earthling!

Can you point me to the web page? Can't find it.

Aargh!!

I've just gone to the results page, only to discover that I missed getting 21/21 on the Nextian quiz by misinterpreting what 'highest' meant in Question 1!!

I answered the Entertainments Facilities Department, because it had the highest number... Such a stupid mistake. Eheu

I shall be kicking myself for weeks.

Alas, alack, or to quote Dastardly, drat, drat and double drat!

Dont worry, I think I only got three questions right!

Luckily, someone liked my scribbler :)
