For this particular event, we had a word search for you to complete where you had to find 20 vocabulary words that one might correlate with penguins. Given the nature of difficulty for this particular puzzle, we offered up a a few different levels of prizes.
Here are the actual words that we were looking for in this word search:
- leap
- bird
- dive
- icicles
- feathers
- white
- snowbank
- water
- krill
- march
- hatch
- fish
- chick
- swimming
- herring
- honk
- Antarctic
- frozen
- oceangoing
- waddle
Funny enough, some of you found the word 'ice' which wasn't even in the list though 'icicles' was. Another extra word a couple of you found was 'raw'. Others found even more unrelated words!
In cases where the word had an 's' at the end and someone forgot it, or there wasn't supposed to be an 's' and you included one, I allowed those minor mistakes to pass.
So, on that note here is how it worked out. We had a total of eight people participate:
- one person got all 20 words correct
- one person got 19 words correct
- two people got 18 words correct
- one person got 17 words correct
- two people got 16 words correct
- one person got 14 words correct
The original prizes listed were broken down into different tiers so that people who didn't do as well would still have the opportunity to win something. The problem was that I didn't account for only one person getting the words correct in any of the four prize categories. I'll have to think it through better next time. So, I hope there isn't a mutiny but I'm going to do the prizes a little bit different. This simply makes it fairer odds for all the players.
First, the names of those people who submitted between 19 and 20 correct WORDS were put into a draw to win ONE of the following:
- #256 Penguin Party Boys; OR
- #251 Three B's Trio; OR
- $12 worth of images from the Penguin section in the store.
