The winner of Sleuth Trivia (Part 4) is… *drumroll*… Sultry de Mon! Congratulations, Sultry! You had the most correct entry of all the contestants, and a near-perfect score.

At a close second was Bela Talbot III--excellent work! In general, I was very impressed by all the contestants' research and stalking skills. All non-winning participants will receive [5] GPP.

There were 6 entries received in total, 5 of which were at least 75% complete. Therefore, Sultry’s prize amount is $50,000x5= $250,000. Miss Hawkeye will wire you the prize money shortly. In addition, Sultry will receive [10] GPP.

Thank you all for playing, and I hope you had fun digging and searching for the answers. The questions for Sleuth Trivia (Part 5) are currently being compiled, so please look forward to that in the coming months. :)
