Posts: 7038 Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | It's been a long wait and I apologize for the masses for making you suffer a long wait. Now that it's here, you might not be so anxious.... Thanks to Shimano for bringing us this contest, and now it's on!!! Here's the rules, you answer the most right, you win a prize. You answer the LAST answer, you win a prize. The two prizes are a brand new Shimano Calcutta 400D and a Shimano Calcutta 400B. Which winnner is which...we'll let you know when we're done! Quick tutorial: this isn't a question and answer type trivia contest, NO, that's too easy. This is a basic fill in the blank kind of contest. There are 2 paragraphs filled with fun trivia, you can probably figure out the subject matter of each, but you have to figure out what word/phrase/number/date/year/etc. goes in each blank. Example: Steve _____ (1) is a ____ (2) ___ (3) man. Now with answers: Steve Worrall (1) is a crazy (2) old (3) man. Here's how you play: post your answer(s) with a the right word/phrase/number/date/year/etc. and a number next to it, in order if you can. The first person to post the correct answer gets credit for that answer. I will be tracking the number of answers each person gets right (and remember the person with the MOST right answers is our first winner) and periodically (hoping for every night, but could be every other because I am lazy, busy, and like seeing people struggle) filling in the blanks on THIS thread with the name of the person that answered the question right and the right answer. First person to post the right answer gets credit. The LAST person to answer the LAST blank(s) wins also. I know it's not an easy one, I know it's going to take some work to win...but imagine, I just cut out a whole paragraph that would have been another 75 blanks!!! If you have questions, PM me! Good luck, have fun, and thank you Shimano for the great prizes!!! This should be fun to watch!
