Day of the Tentacle Hints
How do I enter?
1 of 3: Only tentacles are allowed to enter their humans in the contest.
2 of 3: So you first have to look like a tentacle. See the previous question, "Why won't the guard let me go anywhere?" for more help.
3 of 3: Then just talk to the guy at the desk next to the fireplace and he'll give you an entry form and name tag for your pet human, once you find one.
