I just hope that I know how to read the rules. That last post you had on the sell sheets was a little difficult for me. (Gee, was I supposed to post on-line or e-mail you?) Wink

Damn, so that means the 'Write your Name' Challenge isn't this week, then?

That's me finished, then.

I liked those tick-a-box multiple choice tests in school because the laws of probability (and a bit of guess work) let me look as if I was smart Razz

Multiple Choice, eh? I might swing one or two multiple choice questions in there for you - and it would help if you knew names (not necessarily you're own though)

And in this instance Reading the Questions thoroughly just might help Wink but being on-time is not nearly as relevant - just come prepared whenever you get there Smile

Since I didn't have access to CT yesterday or part of today, the contest will probably be later this week or next Tuesday since *I* need to prepare Wink

Most of these contests come and go before I ever get a chance to participate! Frown

I would like it better if the contests were held open for a few days and then everyone's answers tallied up at the end! It usually works out so that if you aren't watching the board the day the contest is announce, then you're out of luck!

How about having a deadline for answers, and then reveal the winner, instead of making the winner the FIRST person to get it right? That way, those folks that hang out on the board for 4 or 5 hours per day won't win all of the contests! Big Grin
