Hi! Welcome to a brand new Fun Funky Mystery Number month! This is officially the first week of November ~ for this game ~ and we've got more puzzles and brand new numerals for you!

Since November is our birthday month, how great it would be if we could really grow this game! Please help us out by telling your online friends about this game. They don't even need to be digital scrappers (but I'll bet we might snag a few :-D). Anyone who enjoys math challenges just might want to see this thread. Please send this link to them and ask them to join us:

November is our month to celebrate, so with that theme in mind, I've created 0-9 to match my brand new kit, Celebrate (http://www.gottapixel.net/store/product.php?productid=25118&cat=0&page=1)! If you play the game every week this month, you'll get the full alpha at the end of the month!

Share in this thread:
We're having fun getting to know each other better here and commenting in this thread when we solve the puzzles. This week tell us something you could scrap with this kit. What's a celebration in your life you'd love to have a layout to remember?

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 6-digit whole number.

2. It is an even number.

3. The sum of all of the digits is 17.

4. The hundred-thousands digit is one less than the tens digit.

5. The thousands digit is the same as the ten-thousands digit.

6. The ten-thousands digit is one greater than the hundreds digit.

7. The ones digit is one less than the thousands digit.

8. The tens digit is the largest digit in this number.

9. There is at least one zero in this number.

How my students solve these puzzles: Try writing 6 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!

It's so great to have some new people join us. Welcome seniorgal and mom2bsa! We hope that you'll come back each week.

Did all of you see the question that Kathryn asked us to answer this week? It's right under the preview of the kit. I have lots of photos of my daughter when she was little that would work so well with this kit. Of course, the big things like birthdays, but also the little things that were so memorable in her life like petting the animals at the country fair for the first time or discovering a new kind of bug. This is such a great kit!

Now for the list of winners for this week so far:
