    Yep, a load of croc then.
    Sorry, but I won't be entering the comp even if the answer is posted. It's like they've realised places like this exist and feel cheated. I'm sure they've sold a few more books than normal because of MSE.
    They seem to be changing the goalposts as and when they feel like it. Very unsportsmanlike IMO.

    Hope someone from here wins it though, that would teach them!
    Thank you to everyone who posts comps! :A
    I would like to be lucky,healthy & happy in 2020! :T

    Note this new term!:

    The finalist chosen by The Author will answer one more question, the answer to which will be easily found in the book "The Secret Of The Lost Planet". Failure to be able to answer this question will mean that another entry will be drawn by The Author. This process will continue until the drawn finalist is able to answer the question.

    ...do you know what, they can keep it, wont read it, wont enter.... I too think they have changed the answer and feel they are being very picky.

    So much hassle for a competition! I might have considered buying the book to read if that would be the end of it, but asking another question is daft.
