OK gone 7pm, so time to reset all guesses so all previous guesses are incorrect and everyone can guess again.

Answer (and clue answers) will be revealed tonight if no winner, and may reset guesses again later.

So the clues so far are:

1) It is JAMMA (the bit about it working doesn't help, just mentioned as I have done non-working boards in previous competitions)

2) 3 boards but not 3 layer

3) If this board was to play the Australian Lottery, it would have over 462 chances to win the jackpot

4) Shooting into a barrell

5) Manic Miner in Open Kettle

The guesses so far across both forums are:

And we have a winner!

Did you get to the answer to the other clues? If so, post here.

For "Manic Miner in Open Kettle" - Open Kettle was the original name of DUNKin donuts and Manic = Mania (Ok, I did say that clue was cryptic and probably only works in my head).

OK, so looking at Macro's previous answer, it was clear that he had already worked out the main clue that said it was System 11, so answers to clues below:

1) It is JAMMA - Just factual

2) 3 boards but not 3 layers - Again factual, Dunk Mania has 3 PCBs, 2 of which are under half size, both fitting into the bottom board making it a 2 layer board.

3) If this board was to play the Australian Lottery, it would have over 462 chances to win the jackpot - On the Australian Lottery website, they have various 'systems' The one that has 'over 462 chances to win the jackpot' is called 'System 11' (as you select 11 numbers).

4) Shooting into a barrell - well barrell shaped basket (sort of)

5) Manic Miner in Open Kettle - Open Kettle was the original name of DUNKin donuts and Manic = Mania (Ok, I did say that clue was cryptic and probably only works in my head).

Well done Mike, and PM me your details to send you the board. simonden2014-01-13 20:54:59

The system 11 was the start point, but I was convinced that your 'manic miner in an open kettle' was a variation on 'shooting fish in a barrel' hence the idea that it was going to be one of the point blank trilogy

as you say the 3 boards just convinced me it was system 11

still, nice clues, beats the 'where is the eiffel tower' type crap you get on TV quizzes nowadays
