E: 30/11 Win a £5000 trip to Chile (play game, unlimited entries)

Options
Cox & Kings

Simply match the pairs. You can enter as many times as you like and the person who completes it in the lowest number of guesses will win. If more than two people achieve the same lowest score, the entrant with the fastest time will be declared the winner.

The Prize: Two places on the ‘Splendours of Chile’ tour – worth over £5,000.
Extraordinarily beautiful, Chile encompasses just about every type of landscape on Earth, from the arid desert of the north, through verdant lakes and pastures to the soaring peaks and glaciers of Patagonia. This expansive tour explores Chile’s spectacular desert and mountain scenery and Patagonian wilderness, and allows time to discover some great Chilean traditions.

Travel must be taken between 1 January and 31 Dec 2015.
Prize excludes travel insurance, gratuities, any supplements payable (including but not limited to flight or room supplements, single supplements) and items of a personal nature.

    I also dislike these comps due to the use of cheat engines to hack the games.

    I'm tempted to get in touch with them as well I wonder if they could be persuaded to make it a straight draw.

    same old replies lol

    Thank you for your comments regarding our Chile ‘Pairs Game’. I am sorry that you feel the game is flawed – we have done our utmost to run the competition in the fairest manner possible and have robust monitoring systems in place to detect manipulation of entries and the terms and conditions of the game clearly state that…

    If it becomes apparent that a participant is using a computer(s) to in any way manipulate the competition by, for example, the use of 'brute force', 'script' or any other automated means, that person/those email addresses will be disqualified and any prize award will be void

    Kind regards,

    Mark

  • I've just emailed too - said a random.org competition would be much fairer!

    :D

    Phew, this is exhausting! My best time so far is 1 min 27 secs, 23 turns. I was just wondering, when it says you can enter as many times as you like, does it means really enter as in send your score in, or does it just mean play as much as you like before deciding you've done the best you're going to do, and then sending that one score in?
