It's time for the fourth Hawaii Threads Trivia Contest. We'll begin Saturday night and go four weeks.
For those unfamiliar with the setup, please read at least the first post of this thread, this thread, and this thread.
I don't expect the nature or format of the questions to change much, so if you'd like to get a feel for them, please check out some of the past contests. I will continue to try to include at least one Hawaii-themed question per day, and I am going to try to get away from the "remember when..." kinds of questions. General-knowledge questions are much more likely, such as the questions about the name of that eggplant-tahini spread or which way the canoe tilts if the outrigger float falls off.
We have a three-time champ who may be out of web-access for at least part of the game, and although that's not my motivation for starting it now, that's certainly a nice side-benefit! Just kidding!
Seriously, we've had quite an influx of new HT participants in the past year, so the likelihood that someone might step up and legitimately thrash Surfingfarmboy seems to have improved some.
There are small-but-nice prizes available to the first-, second-, and third-place finishers and consolation prizes for the most regular (non-winning) participant and to the participant who comes up with the funniest or most creative answers through the duration of the contest.
But don't play for the prizes. Play to teach Surfingfarmboy a lesson he'll never forget!
----- Please Note -----
I lost track of the winners and prizes in the last game and wanted to take care of that before we got rolling. If you were owed a prize for the third contest and never received it, I would consider it a favor if you'd PM me and let me know. Thanks so much!
First questions go up Saturday night at 9:00, our time.
Post any questions you have about the game as a reply to this message.
