can anyone refer me to a guide for this game?

I don't think there is a guide yet, as it was *just* released. I'd expect one shortly, though!
Oh man...if there was a Darigan Hissi Plushie, I'd totally be getting that now. Those plushies are great, especially the mutant one!

I was expecting prizes today... I thought that they'd either be released on a Tuesday or a weekend.

I noticed this quote in the editorial today:
That's a bother, because when I was naive an innocent I created a username that was very obviously a neopoint and treasure storage account. I deleted it now because I don't want to attract scammers, but that means I'll only ever be able to have 3 side accounts. It's not a huge deal because I only have 4 pets at the moment, but there was some comfort in knowing that I could have 4 extra accounts if I wanted.
the five allotted accounts per email address also include ones that have been deactivated in the past. So even if you have 5 accounts and deactivate one or two, it will not "free up" any spots on the email address.

Yes I was annoyed by that too! I was under the impression that if I self froze an account, I would free up a spot. 
This IS a big deal to me, because I have an account I've decided I'm not particularly fond of, and I was thinking of abandoning it. But I know I'll need all five accounts one day. And what if I get frozen one day through no fault of my own? Or if I make an innocent mistake and accidentally do something to get myself frozen? God forbid that should happen, but I know wrongful freezing does happen, and if it does, I will have even less accounts. That really bites.

It's the first time I entered so I don't know how it works... did winners already got their prizes? The winners haven't been announced yet.

Yes, but that would be against the rules, technically speaking. You're only allowed to use one email address per player so that the staff can keep track of how many accounts you have.
