Now take [the first letter] of each answer and it will spell out [Lurking in the dark] which is the phrase (or sentence) you were to send in. Ta-da! Finished.
How did you like this contest compared to others?

You may want to recheck the answer on what it spells out. The last word is "Dark", isn't it?
Wait... Doesn't that actually spell out "Lurking In The Dark", not "Shadows"?
i thought it was really good, but i didn't understand what we were supposed to do after finding the answers to the clues. I read the hint that it made a sentence, but I didn't know you had to use the first letters of the words. Was that the point (to figure out how to make a sentence)?
Good job Laura!
The scavenger hunt was a lot of fun, Little Jackalope. Thanks for the puzzle!
Maybe you haven't decided yet, but maybe you have, will we get more contests or will you start giving us normal Weekend Puzzles again?
Yours Truly,

I never sent in an answer because I never finished the puzzle.I was definently harder than the first but I love variety in puzzles.Hope you might do another one sometime.Congrats to the winner!

What? No! I thought it was Lurking in the Dark! How did you get Shadows? Taking the first letter of each word clearly spells out lurking in the dark.
Why 'shadows' instead of 'dark'?
I submit lurking in the dark! not lurking in the shadows! Ah...
Shouldn't it be Lurking in the Dark instead of Lurking in the Shadows? I wonder how I got confused...

I think accidentally typed the wrong word in the answer phrase. Not a big deal, I just thought I'd point it out. ;)
Little Jackalope, what do you do at HI? I was just curious because you seem to do a lot of things (I've taken a quick look at previous months/years on AS), but nothing in particular. I don't mean to be offensive -- sorry if I am. I'm just curious.
Yours Truly,
Ms. Random Nancy Drew Fan =D
Alright, who put that "shadows" word in there? *cough*cough*. You are all right: it should be "dark". Fixed.
...that was to make sure you were paying attention. ;)
Ms. Random Nancy Drew Fan:
In answer to your question: I wite this blog for one. I also do a lot of little things that you may have seen around, I act mysterious, read a lot, type on my computer, and think like Nancy.
Ok so that might not have been very specific...hehe. :)
Ok. Thanks for telling me!
Yours Truly,
Ms. Random Nancy Drew Fan =D
