poptart123 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 So I just realized I had the last Lenny Conundrum correct except I didn't type out the answer. Instead of "one" I wasn't thinking and typed "1" and therefore my answer was deemed incorrect ::sigh:: I really wanted that avatar :sad02: Such a stupid mistake but oh well. Has anyone else done something similar? Or am I alone on this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadey Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Haha I almost did for this one! But then I always triple check myself just in case because I always manage to stuff them up somehow. Think on the bright side you'll never do it again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurassicshark Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I don't think I actually knew you had to spell it out like that. I probably have done that too then. /facepalm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one time I didn't double check...ugh. Never again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn the Human Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I made that mistake before plenty of times. All I can say is to be more careful next time. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poptart123 Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 I don't think I actually knew you had to spell it out like that. I probably have done that too then. /facepalm You don't have to for every puzzle but I just realized the last one had "Please submit the answer in standard word form." at the end. So silly me even after reading that put my answer as a full sentence but didn't type out the number like it asked. I made that mistake before plenty of times. All I can say is to be more careful next time. :) Thanks for letting me I am not the only one in making a silly mistake like that. I most definitely will be more careful. Like I said, I really want that avatar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anxious Zombie Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I did the exact same thing. Which sucked because I knew the answer right away, and I 'never' know the answer right away, or perhaps ever (like with this latest conundrum).

You and me both, I have hopes I will get this one though.

(I don't think I got it right, though) cause I've never seen anything about writing in standard word form! Bad luck. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca~ Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I have done the same thing SO MANY times. Hopefully you get the avatar this coming week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Xandria Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Awh, I'm so sorry. That has to be so frustrating. I haven't done the same thing because I've never attempted the lenny conudrum before. I hope you don't mind me asking really quick (I didn't want to start a different thread) but was curious where I could find the lenny conudrum? & also when the new ones are released? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ysera Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I actually got the answer right, too. But um, I kinda "explained" my answer so I didn't win. Lol. My exact answer was: One. You're the only one going to Meridell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Xandria Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Ah, okay thank you guys. :) I found it. I'll have to attempt it next Wensday then. I hope I don't get a math one. >.< lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamppost Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I almost made the same mistake! Luckily, I did read the directions, so I did win, but I almost didn't. It was such an easy mistake to make! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbreeze Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I had the right answer as well. But I think I wrote "One." instead of "one", which is what the answer shows... So I didn't get credit. :sad02: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildbreeze Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Wow. The system is that strict? That's kind of over the top... It seems ridiculous to me, too, but that's the only reason I can see why I wouldn't have gotten it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca~ Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 It seems ridiculous to me, too, but that's the only reason I can see why I wouldn't have gotten it... Weird, I'm pretty sure I used a capital O, and I got it. Did you put a period on the end? EDIT: Duuurr, your original post said you used a period. Whoops! Yeah, they're stupidly strict about that. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Duuurr, your original post said you used a period. Whoops! Yeah, they're stupidly strict about that. :( I don't see why a period should affect it. :( I use capitals and periods out of habit; it's hard not to use them.

I know TNT's search thing for correct answers is reaaaaaally strict- on a recent conundrum, people didn't win because they didn't put the seconds on their answer- even though the seconds were just 0s, so it didn't change the answer.:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
