Cuckoo weekend competitions with lottery prizes!

I will host some cuckoo themed competitions this weekend

• There are two weekend long creative competitions:
  Cuckoo text competition!
  Cuckoo picture competition!
  
• In this thread there will be several "live" mini competitions

​

After each mini competition a random participant will be rewarded a red punch
The winner of each mini competition will receive a ticket to the Super Lottery on Monday

​

On Monday, when all the competitions are over there will be a super lottery. All the winners of the competitions will have a chance to win the following prizes

• First prize: Carrot apple chutney, Mango orange smoothie, Roasted garlic and olive pesto & Terror bouquet
• Second prize: A choice of three of the four artisan products in the first prize
• Third prize: A choice of two of the four artisan products in the first prize

The more tickets you have, the higher chance to win!​

Look for info in my signature to see what is going on right now
& look out for edits in this post, as I have probably forgotten something

Edit: Mini competitions

• Some rounds of Mastermind cuckoo edition was played Friday night.
• Saturday we played 2 truths and a lie. And then a slightly different version: Lies & Truths.
• Sunday we almost managed to locate my items in Where did I put my things?

​

 

Mir - Your competitions look like fun. Thanks for hosting them. I look forward to reading and seeing all the fun posts.

 

Hi Mir good idea about these competitions!
I saw your competitions will start today in the afternoon but when they are going to end? I mean can we post our text of photo in Saturday?

 

Thanks sglick Hope you will also join some of them

Hi Arielh The first mini competition will start this evening. In the two other threads you can post text and photos all weekend. A winner will be picked on Monday

 

Mir I like competitions maybe I will take a break from studying and join you!

 

Since I am not very creative today, we will start with Mastermind Cuckoo edition.

The goal for you is to guess the breeding result from 4 of my breeding pens (only the highest cuckoo from each breeding pen counts).

To participate, make a guess like this:
Wooly snout
Wooly snout
Rabbit eared
Punkoo

You will not only need to guess which cuckoos I got, but also put them in the right order. I will tell you "how" right you are, and you can make a new guess. It is essentially the game Mastermind.
To make it interesting I will mostly use my good breeding result (4x Wooly snout gets a bit boring after a while )

All participants have the chance to win a red punch even if you don't find the right solution. So please join The more the merrier

I will try to make some other mini competitions as well, as I know this doesn't appeal to everyone. Suggestions are very welcome

 

Hi! Can I play?

My guess:
Rabbit eared
Wooly snout
Punkoo
Rabbit eared

 

Yes of course Elva

Three of the cuckoos you guessed are right, but none are in the right place.

Did you play before? Is it clear how it works?

 

I think I understand the rules...Am I allowed to guess again?

 

Yes Hopefully someone else will join us soon, but until then just make new guesses!

 

Punkoo
Rabbit eared
Rabbit eared
Punkoo

 

Now you've only got one right, but it is in the correct position

 

Punkoo
Rabbit
Wooly
Wooly

 

Three right, two in the right place.

Don't forget that there are two more cuckoos: Mustachioed and bee cuckoo

 

Forgot about those ones!

Punkoo
Wooly
Wooly
Mustachioed

 

Three right, but none in the right place.

Now you have had all of them at some point, no bee this time

 

Mustachioed
Rabbit
Punkoo
Wooly

 

Three right, and two in the right spot.

Try dropping the punkoo, they are quite rare

 

Is it...

Wooly
Rabbit
Mustachioed
Wooly

 

That's right



Remember, only the highest cuckoo from each breeding counts.

Being the only participant, you have won both a red punch, and a ticket for the super lottery on Monday

Congratulations!
