Here we are with a new game! I'm in Ft. Worth again with my little grandbaby, but I didn't forget you guys. :) You already know I LOVE coming up here. Where is your favorite place to visit?

Please tell your online friends about this game. Just send this to them and ask them to join us:
http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=247

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!

On Sale:
The ABCs of Me or Look Who's in the Zoo! is 30% off for the full month of October! You'll have so much fun using these to scrap your children's school adventures!

I've LOVED looking at what others have done with this set! Click the whale to see!

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. There are only 3 different digits in this number.

4. The ones digit is half of the hundreds digit.

5. The tens digit is the only prime number and the only odd number in this number.

6. The sum of the 5 digits is 31.

7. The first and last digits are the same.

8. Every digit is greater than 3.

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!

Hi,

thanx for taking the time away from the grandbaby to post the quiz.

IF I could afford to travel it would be anywhere my genealogy takes me. First would be to South Carolina to visit my patriot ancestor's grave.

I love this game. Keeps the old brain exercising.

My favorite place to be has been North Carolina because my sister, bil and my parents are there. But with my kids all moved out this year, I am sure I am going to love visiting them also in Maryland, Virginia and Colorado.
Just sent you my answer.
Have a great week everyone.
