Welcome to another round of Fun Funky Mystery Numbers!

(A word of warning. Please don’t give up. This one took me a few extra minutes to solve, but a calculator came in handy with the second clue. Let’s see who can stick this one out.)

Please see the sticky for the basic information http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?t=6184 (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?t=6184)
and this link for hints you might need. http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?p=97213#post97213 (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?p=97213#post97213)

Remember if you figure it out, send me a Private Message with your answer. Do not reveal the answer in this thread as that will end the game for the week. Everyone who gets the right answer and sends it to me between now and Friday night (12-01-06) will get these Fun Funky Numerals:

Check this out to see what I mean: http://www.gottapixel.net/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/24614/cat/500/ppuser/5668 (http://www.gottapixel.net/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/24614/cat/500/ppuser/5668)

I sure hope all of you continue to play. I love getting those PMs and bragging about you in this thread. Remember this week is your last chance to get the November numerals! They would look great for dates or someone’s age on a LO. Let’s see how active we can make this thread! The puzzles are great, but it's YOU, the players, who make it work! I want to give these Fun Funky Numerals away!

Oh, if you do use the Fun Funky Numerals in a LO, please post it in our gallery and put a link back here. We'd all love to see what you're making, and we don't want to miss a layout!

Have a Funky Good Time with this puzzle!

LOL, I´m no whiz kid at all. Math was always one of my weakest subjects in school. I´m a language person, but doing not too bad with these numbers :)

Good puzzle as usual! I am a numbers person ... math was my minor in college. :) This sort of thing would be good for an extra credit project in school ... of course, harder to trust the kids not to share the answers than us ... since we're online and they sit in desks next to each other, LOL! :) (Can't help thinking of it as a thing for school ... I'm supposed to be a teacher!)

Melinda, I do use them in my classroom and the kids love them. That's why I decided to share them with you all. Do I just scream teacher wherever I go? lol

Here is a big announcement! 5 more winners tonight:
jennajul, paperlady, Caz, MelindaH, and ostern Woohoo!!!

I use them with 3rd-5th graders and they work in teams trying to get the answer first to earn stickers. The stickers build up toward prizes. Since they're in competition, there isn't any sharing. lol Teams switch out every day as well.
