Goat Day #11: This is puzzling [Prize Edition]

56

Hi there, goat here. How’s it going? I’m changing things up a bit today. Instead of me telling you a story, I’m giving you a chance to win something. Maybe a whole item, or most of an item, or maybe even a tiny fraction of an item. The choice is up to you.

So what is it? Well, you have to play to find out. Below is a puzzle of the crossword variety. For those that have been around a while, I feel like it’s actually a pretty easy one. For people that may be a little newer, a little more research might be needed but help will be available upon request.

Here’s how it works:

If you want an entry into the random drawing, with as little work as possible, just star this main topic and be on your way (lame).

If you want an extra entry (and to find out what the prize is), do the puzzle. The red spaces spell out what the prize is (from top to bottom, left to right). Whisper the word to me under the first comment of this thread, and you will be given a second entry (if you are correct).

If you want a third entry, complete the puzzle (correctly) and PM me a picture of it (under the same top level comment).


PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWER PUBLICLY

Because I understand people get busy, I’m leaving this open until 11:00PM CST on 08/17, which gives you a week. If you get stuck on one and would like help, you can whisper me the clue # and I will help guide you to the answer. Winner will be announced no later than 08/20. Posting the answer publicly will disqualify you. Your whisper/PM must be under the first post in this topic for it to count.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Also, if you enjoy this type of user experience, feedback is appreciated. Goat life is hard life.
