'Find the Stardog' Hunt Begins!
Monday, December 15, 2008 by Island Dog | Discussion: Personal Computing
The hunt for Stardog begins at 12pm EST today. Hunt down Stardog throughout our various sites for a chance to win a $100 gift certificate to the Impulse Store. There will be a winner each day!
How to play:
Entrants must register for an Impulse account in order to play. If you already have an Impulse account, you don't need to do anything else before the contest begins. Each day during the contest there will be a new scavenger hunt with a different winner for every day.
The first clue will always be shown on the Stardog page. Clues are identified by an image of Stardog hidden somewhere on the page. To reveal the clue, click on the image of Stardog, and he will give you a hint for your next destination, where you will need to look for his new hiding spot.
Everytime you find a clue there will be a letter in Stardog's paw print. Keep track of the letters in each clue.
Once you have found the final clue and solved the scrambled word, you will be asked to enter your Impulse account information. This information will be sent to the prize department and they will contact you with information on how to receive your prize. The dynamic chart above will show how many contestants have found each clue and when the daily winner has completed the hunt. Once the winner has been found, the hunt will end for that day.
Make sure you have your Impulse account setup, and get ready to play!

Oh, well... after about 45 minutes of mind boggling scans i got pretty much **too** stuck on the third clue today.
So, i guess it's good luck for Thursday & Friday hunts for me!

Argh, #2 was annoying. I had found the right page for awhile and was convinced it was the right one but the stupid dog would not show up. Then I refreshed for the over nine thousanth time and it finally showed up...

I cannot figure out the first clue. Anybody have a hint?
Reply #65 Wednesday, December 17, 2008 3:51 PM
i got all of them, but i probably didn't get them in order...clue #2 was the last one i found....it was soooo obvious!

Clues 1-4 were fairly easy but 5 is, well pretty darn vague, stuck on this one.

I couldn't participate to Thursday's hunt cuz i had an Hospital appointment for Ergotherapy to my left hand.... but t'day i came back in with a vengeance at 12:45 and lucky me - i could reach to a complete answer by 13:30!
Good luck to all for this very last week context and congrats to all Four previous winners.
Loved it all, for the challenge & interactive gameplay style.
Couldn't have asked for a better Holiday gift from our precious SD!

Would it be alright if I post the answers to the previous day's clues and answers?

I actually finished the Thursday hunt in about 5 minutes, after waiting for about an hour for the Stardog to appear on the main page. I still think think they killed the contest by making it a random drawing - it wasn't a contest anymore, it was a sweepstates or something else like that.

It was already "sweepstates" as you experienced even if they always picked the first to finish.
For example i got the problem that i always got the same letters since wednesday. And no, it wasnt the cache of my browser. I even used two different PCs.
And atm the stardog page does not display any winner for friday.

I think a comment about unlocking the magic ,, or hidden treasures might have pointed some in the right direction. and at the same time totally sent others off in the wrong direction
