Marav?


Posted by: forwardone

Just a reminder that our quiz is cared for alternately by two of our mods, clifton, and golddust, who live in very different time zones.

This means that when golddust looks after it it will start later than when clifton does. Expect the first clue to be posted hopefully in around 8 hours time.


Posted by: Pete Berg

According to me answer of this question is a scientific calculator.so if i am right then please give me the prize as 5$.
