The Hint Thread!

[Diamond]

Okay, starting out with hints for our April challenge. Bogie was the first person to guess February's topic correctly, and his prize was to set April's challenge topic. He will not be eligible to guess or win this time around. (The guessing and winning of the topic of the next challenge; he can still enter, but will be honor-bound not to start his entry until April 1st.)

The first person to guess the challenge topic correctly will get ONE EXTRA WEEK to work on their entry. The way I'm going to set it up:

1. If you're the first person to guess correctly, I will notify you by private message one week before the challenge begins.
2. You can then begin your map, but DO NOT post your thread until the challenge officially begins.
3. If no one guesses correctly until the 4th and last hint, you might have only a few days, instead of a week, head-start.
4. If you are the correct guesser, I will rely on your honor not to tell anyone else.
