Results of DBG 56

Hi everyone, thanks a lot for sending your answers to me!

Let me give those a warning who didn't start to contribute with at least a small amount to the reward pool. I announced it this weekend that those that upvote with 0 SBD may receive the XP but will not receive the SBD prize... Your contribution can be transferred directly to my account, it can be a non-zero value upvote or a bid sent by a bid bot - you decide.

This is just a gentle warning to make you get used to the rule, but it will be effective in a couple of days.

Let's get back to the puzzles... DBG 56 proved to be more difficult, here is the solution:

I received 5 correct solutions:

The winner was @im4g1n4t10n receiving 1 SBD + 15 XP. Congratulations!


This is how I calculated XP:

  • 1st: 10+5
  • 2nd: 9+4
  • 3rd: 8+3
  • 4th: 7+2
  • 5th: 6+1


I generated a random number to see who wins the 0.25 SBD. The random number generated was 2, therefore the winner of the random reward is the second person sending in the correct answer:

The random reward of 0.25 SBD goes to @doughtaker. Congratulations!

I thought my answer for DBG 56 was good. Only after seeing your answer I 'get' what you were looking for. Wasn't clear to me. :-(

You missed me again... are you having trouble getting my emails? Because on my end, it says the email definitly “sent”. Oh, but I see now I put the wrong DBG number...55 instead of 56. Is that why?


Ahhh, yes. Now I received it without a problem, but for some reason, I opened the first one... Maybe it would help if you could indicate in the comment that you have sent two letters, so that I know that I do not have to stop at the first one, but look for the second...
Sorry.
Modified the XP calculation.

Thank you. Ok. I will do that in the future.

Thanks :-)
