Mastermind Xiv Is Underway!

This should be child's play after that cryptoquote!

If you're not sure how to play, you can find a watered down tutorial here.

Today, we are going with 10 currencies to select from 168 internationally recognized currency symbols.

You are allowed 3 guesses per day to use at any time. You can use all 3 at once, or space them out throughout the course of the day.

The "final answer" rule still applies. For example, if you have used your 3 guesses for the day, but believe you know the answer, you can post 1 more guess and list it as your "final answer". Careful though, if you are wrong - you are eliminated from the game and can no longer play.

Each day is considered Midnight EST.

I mentioned the prize for this contest may be some Lincoln RPM's, but that is subject to change if I can't get through them all before the contest ends.

I think that about covers it. If you have any questions, just post them here!

Feel free to discuss hints, tips, and strategies, but be careful not to tip your hand too much and give away your edge!

rikcando has put together a nice little spreadsheet that he has shared in the past, if you would like a copy, I'm sure we could get him to post the link again.
