Wiki ...Where my clues came from.
Timeline ... scroll down to 3.18, the Ming Dynasty.

Our friends at Redlynx have offered up a really unique prize. "the mystery box that's in the game". Like the one found on smoke and mirrors. And im prizing the runner-up
The poll has been closed. Grimmigstens idea beat the human dart 10 to 6. Therefore a winner will be chosen using the following method: see the next post below this one

Congratulations Flip Taco! You have won the secret box that RedLynx is offering up! NovaDarkStorm is the runner up...
See the roulette video Here, Its a bit grainy but its the best i can offer, its not like i can do a re-do lol

Grimmigstens idea: Each entrant is assigned a number, and a group. 1st correct entrant 01, group A, 2nd entrant 11, group B, 3rd entrant, 02, group A, 4th entrant 12, group B, etc.
(The reason for the groups is that New Vegas only allows 10 bets per spin)

When the deadline (Feb. 18th) is reached, within a few days, I will message all the correct entrants their number and groups. I will then use my handy new capture card to make a video of this:

Take my Fallout: New Vegas character to the roulette table.
I place 1 cap (money) on each entrants number from group A. Spin the wheel until a semi-finalist is chosen by the wheel. Thats the 1st semi-finalist.

I then place 1 cap on each of the entrants numbers from group B and repeat the process until semi-finalist #2 is chosen by the wheel.

Thats the end of part 1. n the event I get more than 20 correct entries, more revisions and groups may be necessary)



Part 2: I will release a video of part 1 and message the 2 semi-finalists. Semifinalist from group B gets 1st choice of Red/Black, the other gets the remaining color. (green is not an option.)

I will then repeat part 1, but placing 1 cap on each of red and black. Spin the wheel and note the color. (green = re-spin)

Best 2 out of 3 wins the Grand prize from RedLynx and the runner-up recieves, either by their region or their choice, 1600 MSP or 3 months XBL gold.



I am an honest, on the up and up guy and i will capture the whole event with no clip editing, all in 1 take. I will however add in text throughout and still shots at the end showing the numbers the wheel stopped at. (The wheel spins and when it stops, it goes back to table view rather quickly, so the stills are to show where it stopped for sure.)

I wanna see the video of the roullette spin to find out the winners! That is such a unique way to choose a winner.

The roulette idea sounds pretty good, but I don't really trust an outside source being responsible for the results. If it were BlueMage or RedLynx doing it, I'd probably be a lot more trusting of the results as I've never heard of Grimmigsten before.

Either way, I still vote for the extreme human dart

No worries Flip. Because it's a puzzle and not time-based, Blue had been asking around for ideas on how to fairly choose a winner for his upcoming contest. The execution of whatever idea is chosen is going to be handled entirely by Blue.

@ Hitman & Blue: Thank you.
