This is our contest game for the month of December. Please see the post under Monthly Forum Contests for more details. It includes details of this month's prize package.

How to play:
* Each day I will post a list of 10 scents, except they will all be scrambled! Unscramble the letters to figure out the scent AND add the name of a vendor that carries the scent.

* You may post directly behind yourself, but only one guess per post. If your post contains more than one guess, only the first one will count.

* At the end of each day, I will list the correct answers. The FIRST person that guessed the correct scent name will get the entry credit. There will be 10 chances each day, meaning a chance for 10 entries each day. (Note: Although I will not have a specific vendor in mind for each scent, you must list both the unscrambled scent name and a vendor who carries the scent in order to get the credit.)

* Remember - the correct answers won't be posted until the end of the day. If you see a guess for a scent name already posted, but you think the scent name might be something else, go ahead and post your guess.

* At the end of the contest, the entries will be tallied and the winner will then be selected using Random.org.

* Remember, to be eligible, you must be actively participating in other games within the Game Room. The minimum requirement is one non-contest game during the month. It's easy to do! You can play to win even if you have won one of these contests before!

* Contest ends December 12, 2008 at midnight CST.

Rule change: For the remainder of days, you may not post back to back. Meaning one person must have posted a guess before you can post another. I want to make sure everyone gets a chance to play!

I'll post the Day 2 puzzle a little later today to account for different time zones.

Good luck!
