The Contest Begins: Puzzle 1 is here!

1 May

The first contest puzzle has been posted.

  • You can solve it here. The meta is one of the top 500 rock and roll songs of all time (according to Rolling Stone magazine).
  • When you’ve solved the meta, enter your solution on this page or the puzzle page.
  • Those who submit correct answers will be put in a random drawing to win a MMMM coffee mug.
  • The deadline for sending in your answer is Sunday May 6 at 11pm Eastern Time. The solution will be posted Tuesday May 8.
  • If you haven’t signed up for the contest yet, you can do so on this page as well. Do that before sending in your meta answer.
  • The first few puzzles including this one are on the easy side. If you’re competitive, time yourself and tell me how long it took. I’ll post the five fastest times along with the solution.
  • As stated in the contest rules, it’s possible that a future meta might refer back to prior puzzles. So you might want to keep your solutions around…

Have fun!
