Congratulations to Kunama & Blujixapug, who each won one of the two
Master Riddles for Year 500. They were each rewarded with a trip to the
famed vault of the Gods. The Garden gives accolades especially to
Blujixapug, who has won a Master Riddle for the third semicentennial
celebrations in a row, earning him the title of Riddlemeister, an honour
visited upon only four other mortals to date, as well as giving him the
record of the most visits to the Vault of any adventurer in Sapience.
(However, we do have to deduct a few points because it seems to take him
twice as long to pick out a prize each time he visits. He's worse than a
Siren in a shoe store.) If you are curious about the riddles they
solved, you can view them with RIDDLE HISTORY.

Next up in our Year 500 events: The Y5C Lottery will be drawn on Friday
at 10pm GMT, and the Y5C Land Auctions will begin after. Over the
weekend will be the final three Year 500 Championship Games: the Twins
Combat Tourney, the Bandersnatch Hunt, and the Quiz. The scores from
these, in combination with the scores from the completed Games, will
determine the overall Year 500 Champion, the next wielder of the Staff
of Nicator. Specific times and dates at
