Bathtub rubber ducky racing has long been a popular sport. Every year rubber duckies from all walks of life train in bathtubs, spas and small ponds around the world to prepare for the annual Kenducky Derby, the premier bathtub ducky race.
In this contest you will solve a ducky race puzzle following the rules of APE Games' new release, "duck! duck! Go!" As you will need to familiarize yourself with the rules in order to solve the puzzle, the rules are available here: http://www.apegames.com/duck/duckduckgo.html
There will be two puzzles in this contest. The first puzzle will run from August 22nd through August 28th. The second puzzle will be posted on August 29th and will run through September 4th. Contestants will receive 1 entry just for attempting an answer, and 5 points for correctly solving the puzzle. There will be five winners picked for each puzzle for a total of 10 winners which will each receive a free copy of “Duck! Duck! Go!” All 10 winners will be announced on September 5th.

OMG, I had found a solution I was 100% sure it was right, but they say it isn't. Is it possible that there are two solutions? If yes, bad luck for me I've found the other one.
EDIT: OK, I guess, I swapped the numbers for round 1 by mistake. Ouch.

Rubber ducky, you're the one... you make bathtime... umm, why is everybody looking at me that way?

A duck walked into a drug store...
He asked the pharmacist for some chapstick.
He told him to put it on his bill.
Because he had quacked lips!

Oh, c'mon, I entered a solution I was sure it was correct and I got a message that it was wrong... are you sure there's only one? Is there a way to see what I entered and check it?
