    The Lenny:

    "Here's our problem. Whenever we post a Lenny Conundrum question, people solve it and then tell it to everyone else, thereby ruining it for the people that work hard to get the answer and the prize. It's unfair because some people spend a lot of time trying to solve it, and others don't do any work at all; they just get the answer from the Neoboards or elsewhere.

    Therefore, to punish all of you, we're not telling you what the question is. You'll just have to guess the answer. Maybe that will teach you a lesson: don't spoil the Lenny Conundrum for others!"

    How can anyone know the answer to that??
    I just put 42.

    Thanks to whoever moved this. I didn't mean to post my question in the answer thread. XD

    Where in the world did you get "42" from?

    well of course I would see this right after posting in the other one
    I wonder if anyone is going to get it right, or if they're going to read all the answers and pick the one they enjoyed reading the most

    Haha, I'm too dumb to get the right answer on a GOOD day, and now something like this comes along. XD I think I'll just put Quiggle as my answer.

    It would be quite funny if they awarded every single person who entered, just to prove the point.

    i took it a different way...i assumed that they did give the answer in the question, so--

    Here's our problem. Whenever we post a Lenny Conundrum question, people solve it and then tell it to everyone else, thereby ruining it for the people that work hard to get the answer and the prize. It's unfair because some people spend a lot of time trying to solve it, and others don't do any work at all; they just get the answer from the Neoboards or elsewhere.

    Therefore, to punish all of you, we're not telling you what the question is. You'll just have to guess the answer. Maybe that will teach you a lesson: don't spoil the Lenny Conundrum for others!

    therefore, i put the last bolded part as my answer...they said it's a lesson

    * It seems a new Lenny Conundrum competition has begun. The answer to last week's was Year 8. 98 of you pitiful Neopians guessed the correct answer earning yourselves 20409 NP each. A trifling sum. You should donate it to my non-profit fund that helps support the inhumane treatment of Grundos.

    Can anybody explain the answer? Just for curiosity's sake.

    i dont think there really is an explanation

    i think it was literally they just picked something and awarded anybody who guessed it...

    I'm astonished that almost 100 people got it. that's mind blowing
    if the question had been, what year did my account get frozen and I stop playing neopets, that would have been the answer. if my mind had been working differently that day I might have guessed that. tis a shame
