With PAX excitement winding down and two Comic Cons getting ready to invade my home town in a few weeks I thought we could use a puzzle about the staple of any Con: The Dealers Room.

We all know how easy it is to spend money in the dealers room at any Con. Well, at a recent Sci-fi Con four groups of fans decided to pool their money and buy awesome stuff for their hangout. Added together the four groups spent $931 total.

  1. There were 25 Trekkies, 20 Star Wars Fans, 18 Babalyon 5 Fans and 12 Farscape Fans
  2. 5 Trekkies spent as much as 4 Star Wars Fans
  3. 12 Star Wars fans spent as much as 9 Babylon 5 Fans
  4. 6 *Babylon 5 *Fans spent as much as 8 *Farscape *Fans

With those clues and your good friends Math and Reason you should be able to figure out how much each group spent. If you can get that far then sending your answer to GeekDad Puzzle Central should be easy. After that you're just one randomly generated number away from a $50.00 Thinkgeek Gift Certificate.
