How does the Online Challenge Puzzle work?
This Online Challenge is a simple and exciting variation of a word puzzle called a rebus. According to wikipedia, a rebus is defined as “a kind of word puzzle which uses pictures to represent words or parts of words.” In the United States, rebuses were popularized by the television show Concentration which aired from 1958 to 1973. Rebus puzzles have also appeared as brain teasers on the inside of bottle tops and other product packaging. The puzzle is hidden by a black-and-white checkered grid. As Sponsor Ads are purchased, more of the puzzle is revealed. Once the puzzle is revealed, it will pose a question of relevance to those in the local market. If you’re the first qualified entry to submit the winning answer, you can trigger a cash payout for yourself — as well as a matching payout to an area nonprofit organization. See our contest rules for details.
