Stranger Things Sendoff - Day 17

Challenge 3: Cryptic Castmates

Below are some clues to some names from the Stranger Things cast. Can you identify who is who?

Biblical tax collector cutting grass - Sam Winchester's brother.

Pronounce the fourth letter, then slowly descend

Not your, uh, bird of prey...

Finally, at first - Mozart's nickname is difficult.

ZAR currency, kinda... kept in safe places.

Not at night, moving image - leave your boat here.

These are all worth 2 points, 'cause we think some of them could be too stupid to even get, so if you do, then yay. Or are they too easy? It's really hard to tell. Anyway, send these ones in a message to this blog, if you please!

If you're wondering what this is all about, feel free to hop in the community and join a team!

Stranger Things Sendoff: Day 4

Challenge 3: Crack the Code Well, would you look at this? It appears to be Holly Wheeler's copy of A Wrinkle in Time, only there's this weird sheet of paper tucked into the front. Can you make sense of what's on it?

If you can, message this blog. 6 points for the first team to return a correct answer, 4 for second place, 2 for third, 1 for the last.

This one could be slightly difficult, so you are allowed to work as a team if you want! (Well, you know... pairs, anyway, since tumblr doesn't want to let us have a group chat function...)

If you're wondering what on earth this is about, feel free to hop into the Stranger Things Sendoff Community and get assigned to a team!

Welcome to the Stranger Things Sendoff celebration!

Starting daily in January, and then continuing weekly for as long after that as people want it, there will be challenges of various kinds posted here - quizzes, codes, art or fic prompts, and whatever else the diseased minds of the admins can invent.

Everyone choosing to participate will be added to one of four teams: Byers, Henderson, Sinclair and Wheeler. In order to keep numbers even, team assignments will be random.

You can join or leave at any time, though early signing up will be open from December 1, to build hype/spread the word.

The aim here is to have fun, work together, and celebrate the show we all love. No shipping wars, please. We do, however, encourage a competitive spirit between the teams…

Will there be prizes for the winning team at certain intervals? We don’t know. It’s all in flux. Mostly because we’ve never run this sort of thing on tumblr before. But if you’re willing to come along for the ride, we’d love to have you.

Join here!
