Well, I've won a couple contests, unfortunately not RWA3006 's pile of pooh last go round. Anyway, time to give back. I was out at Hampton Butte a short bit ago, always seems to produce a wide variety of materials. So I'll fill a small flat rate box/envelope with some/all of the tumbler material pictured from that trip (and some others I'm sure. )
No, I didn't plan far enough ahead to guess the odometer game, so it's not that easy. Here's the picture of the material with 26 of the rocks labeled. I left it large, so you should be able to save it, or blow it up on your screen if you wish, right click, view. (Thanks Tommy ) I picked out 6 that caught my eye and took another picture. Your job is to guess which 6. I was thinking order would be important ala the old mastermind game, but think that might take too long. - One guess per day please. I'll check in and respond with the number correct once a day or two; morning, noon or night. only 26! / (20! * 6!) possibilities if I remember my stats right hmm that's 230230 combinations, interesting.... Check back to this post in case I have to add/clarify anything. Cheers, Rick

One out of six, not bad J,B,R,Y,Q,T - closely followed by the Tic Tacs...mmmm...Tic Tacs! Nice contest by the way! Thanks for doing this! Two out of 6, pretty good Another 2 out of 6... and yet another two out of 6... My mistake, you actually got three.
I like your thinking, but 2 out of six must be the random chance or something about the eye catchers?

Obviously, my tastes are different than yours, lol. But you have the benefit of being able to see these rocks in the flesh, indeed, you had intimate contact with them when you collected them.
I'll go out on a limb here and say the one I got right was J?
ETA - That was a joke, I didn't even pick J, lol. This first time!
