The clues must get harder and harder and HARDER!!! People must be driven mad with frustration; they must relinquish the challenge in their droves, the plains must be festooned with the crushed and broken bodies of the defeated masses, we must be whittled down until only I remain to claim the prize.

(Or am I taking it too seriously? )

not at all sparrow. we appreciate your enthusiasm. we are only just a tiny bit worried you may wear yourself out before the end, so here, drink this. it's, ah, "vitamins". and now come and sit over here, just for a minute. comfy ? that's good... you can just rest your head a minute if you're feeling a little sleepy...

That was hard. I spent last night looking and finally gave up. This morning, I spent time in the German forum looking for clues.

I FINALLY found it! That was driving me crazy not being able to find it. You mods are evil! It seems easy now that I've found it. I swear I checked that page at least twice last night and didn't see it.

I hope the next one is just a bit easier. Good Luck everyone.

Yup. But you didn't need to include the picture of you in your party gear next to the letter.

Ok, just a hint for all you people, since today's letter was quite hidden...

The answer to the scramble is the title of a book....

OOOOooooh! That would be just too mean. But since it will be the weekend, I guess I can spend all day looking for it instead of only half a day.

Yeah, true. That's quite a good evil laugh as it happens, I wish I had one like that.
Mine lacks conviction, and an echoy ambience - but mainly conviction, which is where I'm focussing my efforts at the moment.

i believe in you, sparrow. i'm sure by the end of the contest you'll have the evilest evil laugh anyone has ever heard. maybe try practicing in your bathroom for the echo-y effect, or a métro corridor, or some other small-ish, tiled space.
