Most of the contests run for several days - Very few in fact have awarded 1st correct answer. The last contest (for the Get Smart auto) ran for 3 or 4 days and the winners were awarded for Most Creative and then a Random winner was pulled.

The one before that was a series of trivia questions that had to be answered, and it ran for a while too with the winner being the most correct and then smaller second prizes given randomly.

It's been a while since I've had a Be the First one to Answer and Win the Whole Kit Kat and Kaboodle -- though, those are fun too

Take care!

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!

LOL. Yes, they do look like Spocks'

Maybe the answers should be given and the winner would be someone who comes up with the wildest questions??? GO PATS!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there an actual real answer to the competition question or is it that you make a good one up.

There is indeed an actual answer to the question -though, if I'm feeling gracious, I may be able to swing a bonus prize. Please also remember that this is just part one.

We still have the Multiple Choice Questions for Patdata, the Write your Name (or something like that) for xSaBx, as well as the Bond question Plus whatever else my devious mind can come up with.
