If you type in a 1 for the exhibit number, it gives you an error page. That tells me that either the numbering system is just one off, or more likely, they took it down so it would be the one people got stuck on ;). I couldn’t figure it out 😛

That question is definitely catching a lot of people out, but it wouldn’t be fair to those who’ve already entered to change it. I will say this - no-one has got all of the questions correct yet, and if no-one does by the end of the week I’ll pick someone random from those who got closest (it’s a tie right now). Some have got VERY close…

I actually can’t believe how long that took… my eyes are so dry they’re making squelchy noises when I blink. I should have been in bed hours ago but I was determined to see it through till the end.

Great idea for a contest at any rate, I’m pretty sure I now know every single yoyo in the Museum. ;D

Now, where was I… oh yeh… _passes out_

A smart person would’ve monitized page clicks…maybe next time.

The idea was to get people looking at things they might not have usually looked at, and that seems to be working. I definitely think we’ll do more treasure hunts, maybe not quite so difficult though.

I just sent in mine, good luck to all! I had to do some thinking for #1… but I’m hopeful my reason will prevail (probably not ;D)  
Really great contest. Although my eyes are now tired, what could be better than looking at yoyos for long periods of time? :wink:  
Super excited, I think I might have a chance at this one.

The museum is not as…‘complete’ as I thought it’d be, but it still has some very rare and nice stuff!

It’s always been a work in progress and is limited by what I can have access to to photograph to our standards. Amazing sponsors and friends have been a massive help but yes there huge gaps in the history because we took 4 years off. I’m working on it!
