What do you do when all of clues to solve the puzzle are right there in front of you? Well, you solve the puzzle, of course.
Okay, sometimes you miss an important clue or you think too literally (I’m looking at you, “pulley” entrants) but for most of our contestants, the answer was obvious. Drum brake puller.
However, though most got it right, only a randomly selected 10 can win the prize. Here are our lucky puzzlers.
