....in the end, this change very little: I just wanted to know if I have to play to win or play to make the fun continue...because the points are really too many and I felt it was not sporty considering that many of us are just playing for fun.
My suggestions were all in that direction: if I found a chain stopper, I'll get a (limited) reward and then I can change that link to keep playing.
But this is Otto's puzzle and it's been quite a success the way it is: 30 pages and a lot of heat!  :thumbsup:

Dodge Magnum - just seen the edit, maybe this post should be ignored.

AD Magnum
EDIT: probably it was called only AD AD400.

Think it became the Daytona Classics Magnum when it entered production; don't know if it was ever called AD Magnum...

Strictly speaking then we should go back to the AD 400, the project before it was taken over by Daytona Classics and renamed Magnum.
If we agree on that I'll nominate the Ferrari 400.

I have to feel sorry for Otto - this is a puzzle which seems to make up its own rules as it goes along!

I can only blame myself. I wanted to keep the rules relatively simple but was blind to the interpretations that simplicity precipitated.
You wanna be the man, you gotta Name That Car!
