Mission #13 Results
The team needed to answer all 13 questions correctly in order to complete the Mission. All of your answers matched up with mine completely except for one: To avoid the bad luck for breaking a mirror, what must you do?
You are supposed to wait 7 hours (one for each year of bad luck), then take the pieces of the mirror and bury them out in the moonlight.
However, I am not going to get caught up on semantics for that question. Your answer was close enough to what I had to be accepted and I'm sure there are variations where you don't even have to wait the 7 hours.
The team has earned $30,000 this mission bringing your overall total to $179,550.

Mission #14 Results
The team needed to answer a total of 6 out of the 7 questions correctly in order to complete this Mission. In the Discussion thread, the team answered all 7 correctly. However, no one bothered to PM me the answers.
It doesn't matter, though, because I didn't ask for the answers to be PMed to me.
The team has earned $30,000 this mission bringing your overall total to $209,550.
