Virgin Red Competition - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

Sigh - someone is cutting and pasting content (typos included) from this thread and posting it directly to Twitter. There are a lot of complaints to @VirginRed about it.

If it's you, stop it. The game is fun, please don't ruin it.

Well I found the Virgin Holidays code today, not difficult. But what about the bonus clue, what the heck am I supposed to glean from that? It's ridiculous.

CN986 250pts what did you use hun?

If it's the same as mine, I think you have to visit the physical phoneboxes. Somebody else may be able to confirm as I didn't.

It's the 3 closest phone boxes to you that have codes posted on them, you have to physically visit to get those. Not going to happen for me, they are 50+ miles away.

At least I'm close enough to vault 12 to get there with the 25 point daily bonuses eventually, sad to do it that way, would be nice to go out with a blaze of glory having found a nice cryptic clue on-line.

Aha, well yes, the 3 closest to me are in Leeds, I'm in Lincoln. Nit about to drive up just for 3 codes!

There's 5 clues for another code on the Virgin Red Twitter feed. You can get the answers by looking at the replies to each one.

Those clues were terrible!

The #5 bus goes: Birmingham - The Baldwin - Shirley - Monkspath - Widney Manor Station - Solihull
Google maps says it's 6.8 miles.

Neither answer is correct.

(for the avoidance of doubt I have the coin but the clues sucked!)

Today's bonus clue sucked...Used code :(

Finally opened vault 12

Knucklehead-Float-Bracket/dp/B004I1DSYC on Amazon will get you 250

Have a good day folks.

There's a Birmingham themed clue on the V-Red Twitter feed / Facebook page. Fairly straightforward, but remember to round down.

Those clues were perfectly good,
it was the number 6 bus not the number 5 bus, got that straight away from the clue
the distance question told you to go along a specific road which equals roughly 6 miles which was the answer

The Birmingham clue was up last night, it's the one we're moaning about a couple of posts back.

Unless I've gone wrong, today's bonus clue leads to a coin we got some time ago.

I came to the same conclusion about the bonus clue. It's an old code.

Wrong bus number put birmingham to solihull via hall green and shirley in Google; I think they refined that one on Twitter. Round the mileage down.

Same for me.

Worth a listen to this fella

Here is my invite code if you want 50 points (and 50 to me too) - 5YQKHH

Another clue on on both Facebook and Twitter

Here's a riddle to help you find another coin:

We may be Red, but it could be white,
It's bad in the morning, but great at night,
You might have some in your household,
But on Twitter is where you'll find this gold!

Anyone still struggling with that riddle might want to guess what I've got in a glass in my hand right now...
And it's only bad in the morning when you drank too much the night before!

You're on the Brennivin already?

Thankfully for my liver I don't think Virgin have a Brennivin division, or a Martini franchise!
