@Sir Derf to reply to your question here

You will need to guess all fifteen buildings to win Diamonds. Most of these are buildings that we all know, and maybe even have! You can find these buildings across the game. The image may or may not have them!

 

[Sir Derf]

Thank you.

I had asked a second question...

Since all prizes are defined in terms of all correct guesses, what happens if there are no entries with complete correct guesses?

 

[Thagdal]

Remember, guess all the buildings correctly, and you can win 2000 Diamonds!
Make sure you are super fast, as the first contestant submitting all the correct guesses wins 2000 Diamonds.
The following fastest five players with ten correct answers will win 200 Diamonds.

2000 Diamonds for the fastest contestant who gets all ten guesses correctly.
200 Diamonds for the following five fastest players with all ten correct guesses.

which is it 10 or 15, something needs editing..

 

[anonglitch]

Good spotting, @Thagdal Yes, it needed a small fix. It is both, actually This is how it goes!

• 2000 Diamonds for the fastest contestant who gets all fifteen guesses correctly.
• 200 Diamonds for the following five fastest players with at least all ten correct guesses.

@Sir Derf Unfortunately, if there are not enough correct guesses, we cannot grant the diamonds. The grand 2000 Diamond prize needs all guesses. If none, then we can't grant these. The five additional prizes will require ten guesses at least.

"The fastest five players with at least correct answers will win 200 Diamonds."....

Needs to be edited again...at first I read it as "with the least correct answers" and did a double take...

 

[Alcaro]

The descriptions, while are exciting and nice, are quite vague. I wonder if the grand prize will be won by someone.

 

[Giraffi]

Last year had only one correct entry, even though there were different buildings that fitted the riddle criteria. This one does not look easy either.

Does someone have to get all 15 correct before the 10 out of 15 correct entries are considered?

 

[Stucon]

I have said this before.
These 'first to ... ' style competitions are grossly unfair to those who are in the middle of their night or work pattern when the competition begins.
Do people forget that players of this game are global and have real lives.

I agree, just seen this so wonder already if players have already got the fastest spots.

For that reason I don't see the point in trying now.

I agree. Just seen this so wonder already if players have already got the fastest spots.

We suggest that you still give it a try. It is a big list of buildings. You will never know if these players guessed ten or even the fifteen buildings. That is part of the fun, so it worth giving it a try!

 

[Stucon]

This ignores the point. If half the world have had up to 12 hours advantage the 'concept' is fundamentally flawed. If the very first person got it correct EVERYONE else is wasting their time. It is unfair and you don't seem to get it.

 

[Sir Derf]

Ahhhh, but is it randomly unfair, which is its own form of fair?

 

[erebus]

I have submitted an entry. Can I try again (same thread)?

Does a new try replace the original guess?

 

[Solanix]

@erebus you can access the entry section only one time.

 

[Stucon]

@Solanix Will you close the competition when someone has won to stop people wasting their time?

 

[Solanix]

@Stucon as mentioned in the announcement, the competition will end on the 7th May at 23:59 CET.

 

[Thagdal]

@Solanix Will you close the competition when someone has won to stop people wasting their time?

There is more than one winner you know? one main and 5 runner up.

@Solanix Will you close the competition when someone has won to stop people wasting their time?

As I have been told by a friend: "It´s not about winning, it´s about being right "

I personally rather troll (or orc) the forum than breaking my head over a riddle. Orcs are far better at orc-ing than they are at breaking their own heads, then again they are pretty good at breaking other heads, which is a bit of a roundabout way of winning AND being right So that´s my tactics anyway...

I love the way you completely IGNORE the points I make. (apologies if English is not your first language).

Let me try it differently. Will you shut down the competition once there are six winners.
