Today marks my 8th anniversary here at CP. I've met some damn good people and seen a few dirt-bags leave and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Thank you for putting up with me all this time.
So in honor of this event and my eventual 20,000th post here is my IMPOSSIBLE TRIVIA contest. Anyone in the US or with an APO/FPO address and 6 months on CP can play. Sorry for you folks overseas but sending the prize would break me.
I'll leave this open for a week. You may guess 3 times a day, I'll only reply with the amount of correct answers you have. This should test your Google-fu but I guarantee the prize will be worth it. First to get them all right wins, If nobody has won by the time allotted a consolation prize will be given to the person who has done the best if under 20 correct answers or the actual prize if over 20 correct answers. In the event of a tie I do have tie-breaker questions saved up.
So without further ado:
20K Trivia Challenge! Some are easy most aren't.
GOOD LUCK!
