Cathy112, as an American who is also in this contest I have to agree with you on one thing. It is very frustrating when you are going in and out of websites searching for answers to these clues, finding them on your own and then find out someone who was too lazy to do the research themselves was given the answer. If people were not posting every question in this book and actually had to look for the answers themselves, that would eliminate 1/2 the people in this contest. Some of the questions people have posted are so ridiculous. The question: When you reach 1139 you are 1/2 way there... I answered that question in less than a minute by adding 1139 + 1139= 2278. I typed 2278 into the search and it brought up Route 66. Something that simple should not have been posted.
On the other hand I can see some people might need help at some point, but it is a little ridiculous to post most of the questions on a website and just have everyone else answer them for you. I do not see a problem with one or two now and then, but people please have a little respect for yourself.... it is a contest.... wouldn't it feel better if you win the million because you actually did the work????/
