20 Questions - Ledge Contest

[BlackWidow]

The moderators have approved the much anticipated 20 Questions Contest .
This all began when people starting saying they wanted one the gift baskets from my company basketGuy. S0..it all began as fun and SuzeQuze & Gldstwmn pursued me to do it as a fun way for Ledgies to have some fun and play together. The questions are being approved and more details will follow soon..start date/ending date ..prize photo..etc. Hope you all will participate and have fun in the process!!! All answers to the 20 questions will be in in the Threads themselves..so anyone can get the info needed..the FIRST person to answer all 20 Correctly will win. Your answer submission must come to me in a PM....you don't want someone coming in late and stealing your correct answers right? Then I will post in the Thread to you which answers you submitted were wrong. Any Questions?

[BlackWidow]

All answers will be in Chit-Chat or Stevie Nicks Threads
Two or three are general knowledge questions - you can use a "lifeline" ask a fellow ledgie or as the person the question is about...maybe they will tell you or maybe not if they are playing too.

[SuzeQuze]

Just to stamp this official, so you know this is not one of BW's exaggerations, this is for real. :laugh: I think this is going to be really fun!!! Those of us who are rather resourceful at searches will have an advantage.:p But are mods elligible to play? We haven't decided that. Humph.

[BlackWidow]

Do you guys think Moderators should be able to play????
when do I exaggerate???? LOLOLOL!!

by the way, I'm not sure I understand where to look for the questions. is there going to be a thread that says "Question #4" or a thread that says "Questions" and all will be listed in there?

[BlackWidow]

by the way, I'm not sure I understand where to look for the questions. is there going to be a thread that says "Question #4" or a thread that says "Questions" and all will be listed in there?

When we get the official start date and time (very soon).
The 20 Questions will be posted and I will make sure it will be obvious which thread the answer lies in. 3 or 4 questions will be answers to things everyone here as access to locating the answer if they are resourceful. You can even use a "lifeline" - by asking a fellow ledgie or the subject at hand the answer if they so choose to disclose that answer.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Do we answer via PM so others won't cheat or what?

They are pending "approval"..I cannot send them to a moderator yet..cuz they wanna play too..I don't want anyone to have a leg on anyone else..(unless your Brandon)..;)

[BTFLCHLD]

They are pending "approval"..I cannot send them to a moderator yet..cuz they wanna play too..I don't want anyone to have a leg on anyone else..(unless your Brandon)..;) someone needs to decide they won't play. I would be willing to...providing widow provides the answers too...to determine if they are offensive...that is the idea with the preview of the questions right? They aren't offensive are they widow? Hmmmm? < smirk >

It's quite a lovely basket (how many times have I said that before? :lol: :rolleyes: ), but, alas, I will recuse myself from playing. Quite simply, I don't eat chocolate. So for me to win this basket would be like Lance Bass winning a lifetime subscription to Playboy. Now, on the other hand, if we were playing for high-end toiletries, you bitches better watch out!

As such, I would be more than willing to be the moderator on this one if Chris or SuzeQuze want to play. :angel:

We have to rewrite a couple of questions because the threads no longer exist. Also, y'all are going to want to start practicing your searching skills! A lot of the threads you'll need to look in/search for are older. There are search links in every thread. Get familiar with the Advanced Search function.

This contest is going to be a bit of a challenge! We will try to begin the contest at a time good for most (US/Canada/Europe time zones). Feel free to give us input on what time/day you would prefer and we'll take it into consideration.
