ROUND 6 META: GETTING RICH QUICK

by Zack Butler, Francis Heaney, Dan Katz, and Mike Selinker

Starring as your demon: Greg Brume

Final activity: Submit a lottery ticket with the numbers 3-19-29-31-37-43

Each puzzle in round 6 produces an answer with a number at the end. The numbers are ordered on the ticket by the last letter of their first word:

FIGURE EIGHT
ACT ONE
CATEGORY FIVE
TERMINATOR 2
OHIO SEVEN
RAINBOW SIX
MACH ONE
EDWARD III

This can be read as the number 81,527,613, and the acrostic of the answers spells FACTOR ME. 81,527,613 has exactly six factors: 3, 19, 29, 31, 37, and 43. The demon asks for a lottery ticket with these numbers (likely a MegaMillions ticket, as that has six numbers), and submitting one gets you the certificate.
