Here are the rules:
1. General IAP Contest rules and the General BASH Puzzle rules apply
2. You must send your entry to iap.puzzles@gmail.com
3. One entry per person and one guess per entry. Be sure to put Puzzle #4 in the Subject Line and include your real name and IAP user name in the subject text along with your list of words.
4. You will earn one point toward the overall puzzle prize total if you correctly unscramble all 8 words.
5. Banter is expected and encouraged, but DO NOT post any hints or real guesses in this thread.
6. This contest will close at noon Central Time on Friday Feb 14.
7. In addition to earning a point toward the grand prizes, each correct entry will also be entered into a drawing for one or more individual puzzle prizes


Good luck, have fun, and let me know if you have any questions

I feel like this has to be a trick. Or he's just softening us up to drop the "Around the Shop" crossword -- I still have nightmares

I hope I read instruction 3 correct as it seems to say put everything in the Subject but I just put Puzzle 4, Real Name, IAP Name in subject and the rest in the "body"

I believe it's in the subject body, which would be the main email. Subject line is just the puzzle number.

My proposed phrasing...

3. One entry per person and one guess per entry. Be sure to put Puzzle #4 in the Subject Line and in the body of the email include your real name, IAP user name, followed by your list of words and answer.

Sam may have a good point about trick.

Good points, I'll try to be more specific next time.

I think I might have succeeded in creating a little bit of paranoia among my fellow puzzlemeisters

I see that #5 and #6 are closed. Allowing more time for #4? If so, it's definitely a trick. Or maybe you got caught up in all the Valentine's day fuss...

Oops - yes, Puzzle 4 is closed too. It's been a hectic weekend. Besides Velentine's Day, I also filled in for our Pastor this morning, so I had to prepare a sermon on Friday.
