**CLOSED** 5 Card Trivia Contest - November 24 - 30

[NDN]

Our 5 Card Trivia Contest works like this...

I will begin by asking a random trivia question.

The first person to respond with the correct answer will receive a random playing card from a standard 52-card deck.

Once someone has responded with the correct answer, I will then ask a new question.

This process will continue throughout the week.

At the end of the week or when all 52-cards have been awarded (whichever comes first), the person who can make the best poker hand (does not need to be a full 5-cards) will receive a $10 Amazon.com gift card!

Rules:

1. Each member may only guess once per question.

2. After you have won a card, you may not guess again until another card has been awarded to a different member.

Yes, many of these questions will be Googleable (not all will be easily Gooleable though). However, the goal of this contest is to reward the people who are here most often. The logic is, the more you're here, the more questions you can answer and the more cards you can earn.

P.S. Mexico City is not the same as Mexico, so you are incorrect, and you may not guess again until the next question.
