Win the Swiss Bank Account The Prize A sum of money from Dioctipoid sales will be placed in a The Swiss Bank Account and awarded to The Entrant who can solve the Puzzle in the shortest time, as determined in the Final Stages of The Competition, and in accordance with The Rules. The prize fund is at £888.oo The Competition At a future date, either to be announced and/or before the Prize reaches £80,008,oo, the top hundred or so Entrants who can show the Judges the highest face value of Tokens on a given date will be invited to take part in the Final Stages of the Competition to compete for The Prize. To quote a famous film, there can be only one winner. The Puzzle In the Final Stages of The Competition, the Puzzle will be a design of Dioctipoid with a unique solution that the Entrants will not have seen before. And it will be as fiendishly difficult as we can devise. The Entrants The competition will be open to anyone but if you are under eighteen then you must have the permission and full support of your parents/legal guardian, and if you win, the prize will be held in trust and awarded to you when you are eighteen. The Rules The Rules are subject to change at any time and without warning at the Judge's (this is me) discretion. Entrants agree to abide by these rules, we will apply them fairly and without favour. We shall publish the Rules here and maintain a Q & A forum. Dioctipoid Tokens Included in the Sale of a Dioctipoid (to be found in the box), will be a Token with a declared Face Value. Sales of early Dioctipoid models will include a token with a larger Face Value. Keep an eye on this section of the website as we will announce additional ways to earn Tokens. The Proof Place a video of yourself solving our Dioctipoid puzzle on Youtube, the first person to solve each variant will be awarded an Infinity Token, this means instant entry to the Final Stages of the Competition. A word of caution here. Be honest in posting your videos and pay attention to the guidelines posted here. There will also be other ways to win Infinity Tokens but we will restrict these to one per Entrant and we intend to issue a limited number of these. The Warning This competition, while designed to support the sale of our product, is also meant to be fun. The monies in The Swiss Bank Account will be held separate from the normal accounts of our business and we will not benefit from these whatever happens. But, if The Competition, in our judgement, encourages cheating, bullying, or otherwise nasty behaviour than we will decide that this Competition is not fun and donate The Prize to charity. Any Entrant we find that has behaved in this way will also be disqualified from receiving The Prize. The Hint As stated earlier in the history, there is an incredibly inventive puzzle aficionado crowd out there who have been experimenting with one-offs, prototyping activity and realisations of various designs ever since Ermo Rubik first popularised the concept. These people have achieved some really quite remarkable machines. The existence of one of these came as a total surprise to me. However, foreknowledge of the existence of, or solution to, this puzzle will obviously tilt the playing field which will not do at all! So, as much as I hate to say this, please be aware that there may well be a video out there that offers a possible solution algorithm to a machine which functions in a manner parallel to ours. Follow this link if you wish to view or search under FTO or Rex cube but you will probably have a lot more fun solving the Dioctipoid on your own! And, as I haven't been able to solve ours yet I am admittedly curious and so would really like to know how you are getting along. |
