8. Chinese Sticks
2. You can have as many as three (3) entries each day.
3. The first one to guess all items correctly wins the prize.
4. Only the contents of one box will be given as a prize but you have to guess all 8 items correctly.
5. During the first 3 days of this contest you are allowed to make 9 guesses thus giving you a room to make one error.

We have no winner yet, Elliot
Mastermind was a favorite game of mine. In this game it is easier to guess the colors of the pegs if you do not have any correct answer.

I need this weekend to have a proper look at this, it's nice to be able to join in with a competition. The problem with a job is it gets in the way of the fun (read:important) stuff.
