Bonus Round 5.1 - Dragon Eggs 1) Found outside Winterfell's nursery. Dayne. 2) Lying on secret table. 3) Faultless ovum - wants nurturing dragonrider. 4) Finder: Osfryd! Where? Not documented… 5) Lizard's only scion, trainable. Please vote for your ONE favorite in the thread before we close round 6. Sooner, if you wish. Remember, you still get a point for voting even if you didn't submit an entry. (I have some spreadsheet issues, so I had to go back through messages to scan for entries. If I have missed any, please shout loudly)

OK, it's been a lot this week with a bonus, a regular, and a riddle. Let's take a breath and try to get through the current tasks. Bonus Round 5.1 - 7am BST Wednesday April 12 Round 6 entries - 7am BST Friday April 14 Riddle entries are now closed. I was willing to give out extra points for additional solvers, but no takers.

so, I suppose the brief was confusing. I was looking for clues/theories as to where the eggs may be. It could be that they were destroyed, it could be that someone has them, it could be that no one knows... It was pretty open for interpretation. Not really ads in this case, unless you wanted to do a wanted ad. Let's add another 24 hours to the clock and just hope for something soft-boiled.

Last shot for bonus round 5.1 entries. 12'ish hours left. Be sure to vote before you play. Also

Hello all. We've had some very sad news today. Fragile Bird has lost her brother to cancer. Words are just not enough. Let's all take a pause today.

Feeling generous today* ... 5 points to the first. 4 points to the next. 3 for the 3rd. Anyone else who solves it gets 2 points. This is totally voluntary. *possibly has to do with the amount of chocolate in my system

Someone found the riddle. Let's hope it's solvable

There is a hidden riddle to find. First to solve it gets 5 extra points. Happy hunting.

FIXED IT. Apologies. I missed this. An extra 2 points to Ser for pointing this out.

So, please vote for Round 5 before you submit entries for bonus round 5.1. Also work on entries for round 6. It is a lot. I know. You can skip the middle bit. Happy Bunny Weekend everyone! Don't trip on the easter eggs

Eternally_Theirs dominated with a simple yet elegant entry. Side note: They also locked it in within hours of the letters being posted. I guess sometimes it just clicks. Castellan tied with Fragile Bird for the second most 1st place votes but gained plenty of 2nd/3rd votes to make them the runner up in this round. The bonus round was fun. Lilac & Gooseberries sold us all on the tower. Fragile Bird came in second, and we had a tie for third between Ser and Castellan. 3 rounds to go. Plenty of time to catch the Bird. Anyone up for an Easter egg hunt while we wait for round 6?

24 hours left for round 5!!!! No more gentle reminders, chasers, follow-ups. It's on you now. Submit, and make your choice. Please.

There has been a request for a 1 day extension. Granted. That takes us to end of day Thursday. Regardless, I'll post round 4/4.1 results tomorrow morning and another bonus round for anyone who needs a long weekend distraction.

Deadline day! Y'all have about 24 hours left and I am still missing many Round 5 entries. There have been no requests for an extension, so I'm assuming that everyone is on top of it. If you have already sent an entry, please confirm your final choice.
