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.

That was pretty awesome!

[Jez Bell]

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.

4.1: I'll also vote for 6.

Bonus Round 4.1 - Tower of Joy

1. Romantic evenings (even deconstructed!) - (Ser Not Appearing) - 2+2 = 4
2. Rhaegar's error. Eight deaths. - (Eternally Theirs) - 0+2 = 2
3. Durable, upcountry, serene tower. Intimate nookery! - (Fragile Bird) - 4+2 = 6
4. Graveyard location overstressed - very elegant retreat. - (Castellan) - 2+2 = 4
5. Romantic escape, evanescing dreamscape.  - (RhaenysBee) - 0+2 = 2
6. Delightful unassuming sanctuary treasuring intimate nights. - (Lilac & Gooseberries) - 5+2 = 7
7. (Howlin' Howland) - 1

 

Standings

1. Fragile Bird                         63
2. Castellan                            55
3. RhaenysBee                       42
4. Ser Not Appearing             41
5. Eternally Theirs                  34
6. Howlin' Howland                32
7. Lilac & Gooseberries          27
8. Julia H.                                26

 

Wow, amazing.  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?

I haven't really paid attention. How do you get from the values you calculate (higher) to the ones that you add to scores (lower)?

I'm game for a bonus round. Not that I've yet submitted for the next real round...

By my calculations, you get more points when you submit entries.

Bonus round 5.1

Searching for: Dragon Egg. Silverwing almost certainly left an egg somewhere.  She traveled far and wide.  There are many theories about where she may have laid an egg and who may have it.

For this round, please use the letters to to tell us where, if, when, who.
