I'll put you out of your misery now. WRONG! but you do get a bonus entry for guessing, and you are now maxed out!

 

(see the post above that I was typing when you posted this)

That's it! You've given me the idea I needed. I've been trying to come up with an all-inclusive way of earning bonus entries for anyone following the thread closely. Here it is:

 

Make a guess at what the star prize for day 25 is and I will award you a bonus entry. It's that simple - no prize for correct answer (other than pride and smugosity), but a single bonus entry for each person who has one or more guesses. Remember that no-one get's more than 3 total entries including their original entry (currently just @sparkeh and @HaleStorm are maxed out). CLUE: there is a tiny big clue somewhere in this paragraph.

Is it a very BIG VeryPC mug, as in the clue was sMUGosity?

[Seb1780]

It's a nano

Nope - nice logic though.

 

Bonus earned, you are maxed sir!

EDIT - I will reveal the prize later today. I'll take guesses until 3pm then tell you all what it is, so make your guesses...

 

Bonus just for a guess whether its correct or not?

 

My guess is a supermarket sweep style trip around the VeryPC production line. Whatever you can carry or fit in your pockets you get to keep, including Al.

 

Am I right?

Is it a greengrocer's apostrophe?

 

(Also, I fear the subtle clue is not to subtle when quoting and seeing the link to the Nano PC. Alas! Unless that itself is just a clue, and the real prize is a fleet of nanobots psychically melded to the brain stem and able to respond instantly to mental commands, thus allowing the winner to establish themselves as The Dominator, overthrowing the British government and ruling over a new cyberpunk dystopia called Verypcia. But it's probably the first thing.)

As for today's, you tease us by lifting the hem of the star prize showing us just an ankle - well the corner of a box in this case.

Better [well, slightly clearer] version:

Sort of looks like a computer...

[sparkeh]

no-one get's

Oooh is it a grammer checker?

[X-13]

Oooh is it a grammer checker?

 

A free @witch?

 

I'm OK with that.

[HaleStorm]

Broadleaf Max? With a awesome GPU? (i know i dont get an extra entry) but it would be cool

[StevieM]

I've got it! It's that simple because the star prize is actually a star. You get your very own star as the star prize.

[sonofsanta]

Pedant fail! *grammar checker

[bladedanny]

Pedant fail! *grammar checker

 

That's exactly why He's excited about it.

[sparkeh]

Hey I do actually need a new home PC, a nano would be awesome.

 

It would really make my Christmas. Just saying.

[X-13]

CLUE: there is a tiny big clue somewhere in this paragraph.

 

LOL.

 

You cheeky bar-steward. I just spotted it. [i use the editor in WYSIWYG mode, so it isn't as obvious.]

[sparkeh]

Pedant fail! *grammar checker

Joke. Review thread for details.

[bladedanny]

Always joking. You pendant...

[X-13]

You pendant...

 

Well, he is Sparkleh.

[rich_tech]

I would have to guess Nano Sketch !

[StevieM]

CLUE: there is a tiny big clue somewhere in this paragraph.

 

I know. It's not a VeryPC it's a Tiny PC! @VeryPC Al managed to pick one up on his time-travels.

[JB7]

Woo, eclairs coming my way.

 

Thanks @VeryPC

[VeryPC]

It's a nano

Thanks for the guess @Seb1780, but I cannot award you a bonus entry until you enter the competition in the first place (apologies if your original entry somehow got lost in an EduGeek PM vortex).

 

If you are an IT tech/manager/support type character, just PM me your professional contact details and I'll add you to the competition AND add your bonus entry for this guess.

 

Be quick if you qualify, entries close at midnight tonight.
