How to play:
* There will be one list of 20 scents from specific companies posted for each week of the contest. Try to unscramble the scent name AND company name correctly to gain an entry into the contest. (NOTE: Company names are the complete names.)

* You may guess as many times as you like but you may not post directly behind yourself. This means that there must be at least one other guess from another participant before you are able to post again.

* You are not able to edit your entries. Any edited entries will be disqualified.

* At the end of each day, I will update the list with the correct answers for those that have been solved. The FIRST person to correctly list the scent name and company name will receive the credit.

* Starting on the 3rd day of each week, hints will be posted for unsolved problems. The amount of entries possible will be less once hints are posted. Here is the breakdown:
- Correct answer, no hints: 10 entries
- Correct answer, one hint: 5 entries
- Correct answer, two hints: 3 entries
- Correct answer, three hints: 1 entry

* Weekly winners will be chosen on March 10th, 17th, 24th and 31st. All active forum members are eligible to win a weekly prize. Once you have won a weekly prize, however, you are no longer eligible to win in this giveaway. (You must be an active forum member to participate. Posts only in the contest thread are not counted toward active membership for the purposes of this game. If you have a question, please do not hesitate to contact me: cyngreen at candlefind dot com).

* A Grand Prize winner will be chosen on March 31st. The Grand Prize is open to any active forum member who has not won a prize from the Candlefind forum in the past four months.

* Please post any questions for the game in the Announcement thread. This will keep this thread open for contest entries only. You may also email me: cyngreen at candlefind dot com.
