Here’s the nitty-gritty that I’ll only post this twice 😉
I post the quiz Wednesday before noon and you have until noon on the next Tuesday to submit your answers as a Comment. I will hide comments on a regular basis.
The winner is the person with the most points at the end of each round (usually 5 months or so) and he or she will win a prize AND I’ll randomly draw a name from the rest of the participants to receive a prize too! So, you only have to get one question right to be eligible for a prize.
The winner will receive a Barnes & Noble gift card based on how many people participate. 30 participants= $30, 52=$52…So, the eventual winner could be you and you want as many people to guess as possible!
A few rules
1. No cheating. No googling or looking at other commenter answers. Yes, we’re going by the honor system 🙂
2. Your first answers will be the only ones accepted.
3. Play every week or just one time, you are always welcome 🙂 It only takes once to be eligible for a prize.
