Alright I really like the trivia idea too...just gotta figure out a way to do this and make it fair for the competitors..and I need to come up with some trivia! :pint:
This will take some time. But what you can do is set up a Tinychat chatroom that only you know the title to.

PM each contestant with the URL and have them join. Ask them the questions. And they have 1 minute to answer each. If they do not answer within 1 minute, that question is marked as wrong. This ensures they do not have time to look it up.

A minute is plenty of time to cheat. I would hope no one would, but....

What if I make a list of say, 30 or so questions, and put a time limit on it as a whole? Like 10 minutes to answer all of them. Would that work? Or maybe I could do like 50 or more questions, still have a ten minute time limit. Pick and choose which ones you want to answer, person with the most right answers wins? Hmmm I have some pondering to do...

Whatever you want to do is fine with me. I hope to be in on it, but I'm sure some dudes/ettes could kick my ass with names and stuff. My memory isn't so great sometimes...

30 questions in ten minutes would be quite the challenge though!

Better idea. How about this:

You'll need to designate a thread in the Print Giveaway sub. There, you will have the 5 people be the first to post or whatever. And they will have to provide you with proof of their donation to EB - this is usually done via email.

Once everyone has donated, and everything has been finalized, make a post saying "On XX/XX/XXXX at XX:XXPM CST, I will post the list of questions. The first person to PM me with the most correct answers wins."

This allows the contestants to go at their own pace. Sure, some may take the time to cheat, but those people will be slow to get their answers in, and in turn, will lose to people who actually know their fudge.

Yeah I'd like it if you were in on it. You, falcon, billy, and Lazk were the first to show interest in the giveaway. Hopefully y'all are up to donate 5 bucks to the site. :)

I haven't read back past this page, but I'll donate $5 too.... Tell me this is for a new car raffle.

Alright, read back.... If you are limiting people, I'm out... Let someone who really wants the hat play. Nice gesture from you though.

Sorry, no hippies allowed in this contest. Hippies smell, and I won't have my hat going on a sweaty hippies head.
