The type hunt
Last April, I was lucky enough to win the grrrrreat type hunt contest at the Big Spaceship Labs blog. The game was to identify the tricky typefaces used in the 18 letter Rs.
After spending several hours at myfonts, I got 15 correct answer and fortunately won the prize. The reward is a free pass to Flashbelt conference orgarnized on 13-16, June in Minneapolis.
While I can’t make it to Minneapolis to attend the event as some one said, I am definitely happy to have won something. The week before the game, I lost both my cell phones and bikes, so finally I had some luck.
Of course, if the prize had been an Ipad, I would not have stood a chance of winning :)
