Mage Music Contest - THIS IS IT

Here are the final instructions for the Mage Music Contest

• Contest questions have been posted in the blog over the past few weeks.  The subjects clearly say Contest Question.  There are three of them.  Some have more than one part.  Answer completely!
• Reread the rules before submitting your answers.  
• Email the answers to this address (you will have to remove the spaces):  fasterhorses @ gmail.com and be sure to put Mage Music Contest in the subject line
• DO NOT include anything in the body of the emails except for the answers to the questions.
• All entries with 100% correct answers will have a chance to win.
• The winning entry will be picked from the pot of all correct entries using a random number generator. 

ENTRY DEADLINE is 11:59:59 PM Mountain Standard Time on Saturday, December 14, 2013.  Winner will be announced once he/she has responded to my email and verified a shipping address for the prize.

Good luck!

Contest update

I'll be out of town Friday & Saturday and though I scrambled to get the last question plus the whole contest form done before leaving, I didn't get it done.  So I'm sorry, but there'll be a delay till Sunday.

Contest Question 3

It's all very confusing: Embryo No. 1 and Embryo No. 2. They both made an appearance in the same place. But here's the thing - even though No. 2 is named No. 2, it actually came first. How do we know? Embryo No. 2 was born from music that was performed live on stage nearly ten years before and No. 1 never has been.

Maybe it's all about the names. Maybe it's all Magick in the making.  Maybe one piece leads to the next or maybe the music leads us to a masquerade that hides the answer.

Where do we find both No. 1 and No. 2?
What was No. 2's original name?

You might have to go outside of Mage Music to figure this one out, but the links are all there.

Contest Question 2

Finding meaning in everything

1.  The black avatar of arts - that creator and trickster - is an omen of omens
2.  He reminds us of another rising into a red sky with the burden of humanity
3.  And thereby we hear the Master.

What are the names?

Contest Question 1

Who of the following did Jimmy Page meet with and discuss Magick?

_ Aleister Crowley
_ Jareth, the Goblin King
_ Louis H. Sullivan
_ Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
_ Thomas Carlyle
_ William Burroughs

Don't answer here, just do your research and hold on to your answer till the end of the contest when there will be a submission form with all the questions presented at one time.

Or however else I figure out how to do this.

Déjà vu?

Mage Music Contest Description and Rules

1. This is supposed to be a fun contest. Emphasis on fun, okay? Anyone who’s a quibbler, nitpicker or general grump should not bother even starting it.
2. The prize for this contest is a TBL Gift Pack. If Dave Lewis is really sweet about it (and he is a sweet guy) he’ll autograph it. I might decide to add additional prizes, but maybe not.
3. All decisions about who wins the prize/s are up to me. I’ll follow my own rules, but if there’s a problem in some way and I feel like it, I will change the rules. So pay attention here: This contest is just like real life - the rules you start with may not be the rules you end with. Unlike real life, though, I will let you know what the new rules are. 
4. The rules will be also posted on a page of its own on this blog, so you don't have to hunt for them. The posted rules will always be the official rules for the whole contest, regardless of what rules existed before them.
5. I’m going to post one or more new questions or challenges at least once a week starting November 16 until at least the end of the month. This means these questions/challenges might appear any day of the week, not just the usual Saturday posts. If there are too many potential winners at the end of the month, I may call for another round, or maybe I’ll just put finalists’ names in a hat and pick one. My rules, remember?
6. To have a chance to win, you must answer all questions/challenges correctly and you must follow all the rules.
7. This contest will use all pages on this site, not just the blog posts themselves. 
8. All answers will either be found on this site or can be deduced by information provided on this site.
9. I will provide an email address at some point for you to send your answers. Or maybe a website. I haven’t figured that out yet. But at that point, responses to all questions or challenges must be submitted, along with contact info. Incomplete submissions will just be tossed out – it’s an easy way for me to figure out who the winner will be.
10. You must be at least 18 years of age and have been born on planet Earth to win a prize.  If you are the winner, you will have to certify to the truth of those two items.
11. If you are Jimmy Page, you can’t win the prize. Sorry, but that would just be unfair to everyone else.

Let the Games Begin.
