This is getting interesting.

I wonder about the clues with two numbers.

It seems like RWarehall is on the right track, as there are 14 clues and 14 characters in XXXDARKSIDEXXX, suggesting one letter per clue.

But then why use two numbers for Kenobi Qui-gon Jinn (2,1) and Otoh Gunga (2,5) when other clues select a letter from a two-word answer with only one index: Bail Organa (7) and Ben Quadinaros (4)? Also, Piggy (1,4) is unusual, too. Why is it not simply Piggy (4)?

Just thinking aloud. Not seeking hints yet.

edit:
Kind of ninja'd.

just a note a have now finished a third check of the entire puzzle there doesn't seem to be any more issues. I would again like to apologize for this mishap. In my original file where I made this puzzle the two errors were correct so this was a copying issue on my part. ill explain how the puzzle was solved after someone figures out the light side path.
hint 7. you must remove the darkside taint to find the lightside.
Wanted to give this a bump and provide some of my notes on how I solved the darkside answer in hopes it might help someone solve the lightside answer.

The numbers in parenthesis mean to take a specific letter from the answer to one of the questions and put it in order. For example: Q: Large$t GunGan City on Naboo (2,5) A: Otoh Gunga ( We take the 2nd word and get the 5 letter which would be "A" in this case.

Now here is a list of all the answers and there corresponding letters in order after coxdr fixed the errors.

Mara Jade (7) D
Lightsaber (3) G
Kenobi Qui-gon Jinn (2,1) Q
Bail Organa (7) G
Dantooine (2) A
Juyo (1) J
Plagueis (5) U
Fold space (3) L
Ben Quadinaros (4) Q
Grand Moff (1) G
Disney (2) I
Otoh Gunga (2,5) A
Yavin IV (4) I
Piggy (1,4) G

Which gives us DGQGAJULQGIAIG. Now we need to decode it by using what we have from the memory corrupt.

Y = 13 J = 18 O = --!- U = !-!

The numbers represent a letter from the alphabet to be substituted (So Y=13 would mean Y=M). The "-" equaled 1 and the "!" equaled 5, you take and add the values of the symbols to get the proper number of the alphabet (So O=--!- is O=1+1+5+1=8 thus O=H)

Here is the completed alphabet with the number associated with it.

A=1=A
B=14=N
C=2=B
D=15=O
E=3=C
F=16=P
G=4=D
H=17=Q
I=5=E
J=18=R
K=6=F
L=19=S
M=7=G
N=20=T
O=8=H
P=21=U
Q=9=I
R=22=V
S=10=J
T=23=W
U=11=K
V=24=X
W=12=L
X=25=Y
Y=13=M
Z=26=Z

Using this decoder we decipher DGQGAJULQGIAIG into ODIDARKSIDEAED with the darkside answer highlighted.

This is as far as I've gotten. I hope someone makes use of this and solves for the lightside answer. I would also like to thank coxdr for the prize he sent me and for the wonderful giveaway he has put together.

This is as far as I've gotten as well. Not sure where to go from here . . . obviously I'm missing something.
hey guys sorry to disappear for a day, I was not able to access the internet from a friends house I was staying at last night. Here is a hint

hint 8. two numbers equals 2 letters it terms of questions.
Oh boy, my insomnia is really getting bad; I read the thread title as "A Star Wars Pizza Giveaway!


Cheers, coxdr, the Light Side vs Dark Side take is a brilliant idea!


Not in.
hint 9: when it comes to two letter questions the number of objects matter. if there is only one object in the question then these act like normal questions. if there are two objects then the each number restarts the process.
hint 10: multiply the dual letters together than divide by the distance from the start
