Opening Day Trivia--Answer questions on last years giveaway--**completed**

[Matt]

Just like the name of the thread implies, we are going to have an opening day trivia contest to win entries into this years extravaganza.

Toward the end last year, people really found out how cool it was to hold a few of these entries for the main giveaway. Such cool stuff.

So make sure you play, the winner of this one will be rewarded with two (2) entries, the runner up will receive one (1). Both will be entered into the Grand Prize giveaway (which is fine as hell this year).

So here is how it will work:

1/1/09 at 12:00 EST--I will post a thread with questions concerning last years giveaway. Brice has moved the video's here to make it easier to find stuff.

All members of TheDarkTower.com are eligible (except Directors as always)

Answer all questions that are posted and send a PM to me. First one in...wins. One wrong answer, I will take the next one.

This is a first come, first serve kind of thing so I'm hoping a lot of folks will participate.

12pm, not am I hope?! Cause I will be sleepin at 12am est

[Matt]

Yes, noon.

[Nerak]

Just wanted to make sure! You know, there are people on the other side of the pond that might be up at that point. Not I of course, who doesn't live there, but there are some.

[Matt]

I know, I thought about that and worried so I put it right smack in the middle of the day EST. Early for some, late for others.

I wasn't sure how else to handle it.

[Matt]

I have updated the first post in this thread with questions for the trivia.

These entries are worth GOLD in May so I hope people have time to participate.

Trivia will end 24 hours from now.

The only one that was a little off was we were drinking from little clay cups. I figured that one was a gimmie though, same with the drunk one.

I figured Matt was the one most qualified to hold his mezcal. My bad.
