Henry, Wade, and Kit looked expectantly at Hotchkiss. They were all in a large, newly built tent. Hotchkiss was standing near the back, her hands clasped together in front of her.
“It’s time for the final riddle. Each of you will enter one of these partitioned rooms,” Hotchkiss said, gesturing to the three sections of the tent. “Inside you’ll find the written riddle. When you have solved it, submit your answer via the SUBMIT button, NOT IM/ASK. The first person to submit the correct answer will be the winner! Take your positions,” Hotchkiss said. Each person stepped inside a different part of the tent and approached the podium with the riddle on it.
“On your mark, get set, begin!”
Solve each answer and add them up (as you go) to get your final answer. Remember you may only submit ONCE.
1. At the beginning of our journey, how many people were standing in the Main tent? (2 digits)
2. In murder one, how many people went to the crime scene? (one digit)
3. Anja wore gloves, a hat and a long sleeve shirt in well over what degree temperature? (three digits)
4. Add together all the clues for riddle 2 (two digits)
5. Multiply your current answer (the sum of the first four answers) by the size of the circle drawn in the dirt (two digits)
6. After murder three, how many people accused Rentaro? (one digit)
7. How many refrigerators are in the kitchen building? (one digit)
8. How many E’s were in the answer to riddle 4? (one digit)
9. Add to your current total the time of dinner in murder five times the number of people who went to the LKW and Morgue (one digit x one digit)
10. Multiply your current total by the number of hints given out in riddle five (one digit)
11. Add the exact time murder six began (three digits)
12. The number of victims mentioned in riddle six (one digit)
13. If Kit is the killer, multiply your answer by 2. If Wade is the killer, multiply your answer by 3. If Henry is the killer, multiply your answer by 4. If Hotchkiss or someone else is the killer, multiply your answer by 5.
14. SUBMIT your final answer. You may only submit one answer. Whoever submits the correct answer first, wins the game. If no one submits the right answer, then whoever is closer will win the game. Your final answer should be five digits. You will not be notified if you are correct or not. I’ll make a post once I receive the three answers. Tomorrow the results and conclusion will be posted.
