The Collective Trivia Quiz Does Dallas!

POSTED ON SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 26^th, 2010

First of all, here are last week's Top 3 Finishers:

In THIRD PLACE with 157 points, BILL KIEL!

In SECOND PLACE with 203 points, MALCOLM BONDON!

And in FIRST PLACE with 257 points, TERRY WIEGERT!

Congratulations to the folks on our podium, and thanks to everyone who played!

I'd also like to congratulate the winners of Saturday's Trivia Unplugged contest, Rebel Rousers. They're a conglomeration of the Collective and the nigh-legendary CNOF. A great way to start off the Trivia Season proper! Good job, folks!

And now, the starting line-up for your Milkwaukee Brewers, and The Rules of the Game:

• You can use any resource to find your answers: Google, Wikipedia, books, magazines, crystal balls, bribes ... it's all good to me. Especially the bribes bit.


• Points are scored on a pari-mutuel basis. Each question is worth 100 points, divided by the number of correct answers for that question.
  


• Do not post your answers here to the comment section of this blog! People will steal your answers and laugh at you. EMAIL your answers to me at vigilante407@gmail.com. Please make sure you number your answers correctly to correspond with the questions. Also, please send all your answers together in one email! (Otherwise, only the answers in the first email I get will count.)
  


• You do not have to answer ALL the questions to enter. Feel free to answer as many as you know or just guess. You never know when you'll pull the proverbial flying monkey out yer butt and get it right!
  


• The contest will end in seven days (one week) at 11:59pm on Saturday October 2nd, 2010.
  


• And please remember that only you can prevent Forrest Tucker!
