Beagle And Clampett Mixed Name Contest, via Iggy Timeeczech
BACKGROUND, PRIZES AND RULES
Everyone is welcome to enter. You can only win one time initially, but, if entries slow down drastically, we'll open it up to previous winners.
The contest gives 4 sets of 5 clues each. Your job is to identify the SIM horse described in the clues. SIM horses may be of any breed, active, retired, pensioned or deceased, but each horse must have SIM race earnings of at least $100,000.
Mixed up names can be:
Alternate meanings for horse name (for example: Defeated by Musical Rhythm = Beat By Beat)
Restatements of name (for example: What an EKG Detects = Beatofmyheart)
Finishing of a thought or song lyric (for example: pour some sugar on me...=In The Name Of Love)
Homonyms (for example:Exist= Bee)
There may also be puns, anagrams, use of horse #id numbers and other such devilish tricks. We can’t give away TOO much here.
To win a prize, you need to correctly identify all three of the SIM horses described in any ONE of the sets. Disclaimer: "This game is intended to be fun; the authors realize that there may be arguments for more than one 'correct' answer. However, to make it fair to all, we must only accept what we have come up with. Sorry if you don't like a clue or its answer, but we've tested and retested all of these, and must stick to our guns! Thanks for understanding! - Leonard and Jeb"
Rules:
You may now answer in one of two ways:
Find each horse's ID number, add them up and post only the total. (To find the horse ID#, go to the horse's page and look at up at the URL address; the horse's ID# is given at the end of the address.)
So, for example, if I thought the right answers to Set #9 were A Bus, A Crown Awaits, and Acapulco, I would add 9415 + 14273 + 18042 = 41730 so I would post ONLY: (Set 9) 41730
-OR-
Post one horse's name and the sum of the other four. For example, if the answers actually were Awestruck, A Crown Awaits and Acapulco and you posted: Set 13 - A Bus; 32315; you'd get back the response No and Yes. This way, you get more information, but you give away more information to others.
More Rules:
You may enter as many times as you want until you win, but you may only win once until we announce differently.
ONLY ONE GUESS PER POST. You will need to wait until you get a YES or NO from Iggy before you can post any new answer to any set. I'll try to be prompt, but you may be waiting awhile!
Discussing/brainstorming/asking/bouncing ideas off of/working with anybody inside or outside of the SIM while you're solving these puzzles is perfectly fine. So go, talk, chat, message ... just have fun; that's the whole point! The only thing you might want to remember is that if we open up the contest later, you might not want to give away an answer that might get you another win!
Prizes are 5,000 GPs for each set!
Set 1 Scripture Based (Some of these are new to Jeb and Leo), solved by Tanitha
Formerly Scarlet, Now...= White As Snow
Believing through Trials= Enduring Faith
Living Word= Bible

Set 2 Old Timers

Albino Jungle Queen= White Lioness
Set 4 Low, Low, Low (This is especially for Jeb and Leo. Everyone can guess, but they haven't seen any of them, and can try to be on the other end of the contest!!!) Total is solved, but figure out the horses 364628
