No worries,

via comp text : C451B cardioid-pattern, small-diaphragm condenser mic, and the Anniversary Edition differs from the standard model only in its colour — this version is black, which can help to make it less visually intrusive than the standard brushed-silver finish

I'd think its silver we need .

1) 1949

I get this too I'm using Chrome

Getting the same error in both Opera and Midori. They need to take a look at that.

Edit: I have emailed their technical support regarding this now.

Their support page says they are aware of the problem and you need to accept cookies (the pop up bottom right).

But, ho hum, you won't be surprised to know that this doesn't work either, so I hope no one spent too much time on the tie breaker only to lose it when the damn comp failed to work!

**edit - went through at 5th attempt - might be worth copying and pasting your tie breaker before attempting to submit **
