I'm going to be holding a trivia competition for those who want to compete. There will be a gil prize of a certain amount which you will find out when you win grnwink.gif Like Alpha's, each question will be worth a certain number of points and partial credit will be offered. You can use the internet or anything else to find your answers, but some questions you might not be able to look up bluetongue.gif The number in parenthesis is the number of points each question is worth.

You have until January 7th (Saturday) at 10PM Eastern to PM your answers to me. Do not post your answers here.

A couple more days left to send me those answers. The answer to 16 was decided when I wrote the question so if you get lucky and answer it, congrats bluetongue.gif I didn't want this to be strictly looking it up and getting answers, I wanted it to be a little more challenging, but at the same time be more easy, hmm ShiftyEyes_anim.gif
