Thanks for coming to play our game. If you're new here, give it a try. Also, join us in the thread with a little tidbit about yourself.
This week, IF the fall weather gets here, we might be able to pull out a sweater or jacket. Just for fun, what is your absolute favorite item of clothing out of everything you wear?
Please tell your online friends about this game. Just send this to them and ask them to join us:

I recently made a full set of 20 quick pages, just perfect for having a special book printed for your children. This would make a great gift for Christmas or their birthday, even if they're now grown. If you haven't clicked on the whale below yet, do so. Several ladies have done a beautiful job creating memory books with this set.
This month, for my numerals, I've created 0-9 to match the alpha I used in this book. You'll get these numerals by playing this game. If you play the game every week this month, you'll get the full alpha right from the book!

How to play:
Just figure out the one right answer to the puzzle, send a PM to withnuts (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/private.php?do=newpm&u=9480) with the right answer, and she'll send you a link to a zip file which includes a full set of numerals 0-9. The file is password protected, so she'll give you the password, too. :) Even though you'll only win the numerals once during the month, make sure to come back each week and continue playing.
Bonus Prizes:
If you like these numerals, make sure to play over and over this month. Every person who turns in the right answer every week this month will win the full alphabet!
Also, at the end of each month, I'll be giving away a free kit of the winner's choice. The more you play, the better your chances of winning. ^-^ Also, creating layouts with the number frames and posting links to your layouts in this thread increases your chances.
(Team members, please continue to play as always, and you can still win the numerals and the full alpha, but the free kit will go to someone not on the Gotta Pixel team.)
Click *HERE* (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?t=6184) for basic information.
For this puzzle, you might want to read *MY HINTS PAGE* (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28949). Check the hints if you're not sure about prime numbers.
Clues:
1. It is a 5-digit whole number.
2. It is an even number.
3. Every digit is different, and the sum of the digits is 31.
4. The ones digit is one less than the ten-thousands digit.
5. The tens digit is one greater than the thousands digit.
6. The tens digit is half of the ones digit.
7. The thousands is one-third of the ten-thousands.
8. The hundreds digit is a prime number.
9. The hundreds digit is the sum of the thousands and the tens digits.
How my students solve these puzzles: Try writing 5 lines on your paper and putting possible numbers under each. Mark out numbers as you go ‘til you get the answer. Check THIS (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28950)out to see what I mean.
When you solve the puzzle, send Terry a Private Message with your answer. Click withnuts (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/private.php?do=newpm&u=9480) to send. Do not reveal the answer in this thread as that will end the game for the week. This puzzle will go through the week, and I'll post another one next Saturday.
Terry and I hope all of you come back to play each week, and send your friends here as well! Let's sharpen those brain cells while we have fun AND get a little reward in the process! :grin: Thanks for being part of the fun here at Gotta Pixel!
