Coming in July, I will post my first contest with a prize.
The prize will be something silver and of Mexican origin. Who knows what it will be!
It will be a quiz. Seven questions and one tie breaker.
I have written the questions. But I have family visiting me this month, so the contest won't be until July.

Perhaps pattern the contest after Monty Python's 'answer me these questions three' bridge of death scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Quote: Do the answers have to be correct?. Yes, the answers have to be correct. Only the tie breaker will have to be a guess. I have thought about this contest for a LONG time. Most of the questions, maybe all of them will not be something you just know. Some research will be involved. There is a tie breaker because I believe most contestants can get the correct answers with a bit of persistence. Warning, getting the correct answers will take more than a minute or two.

 I'm loving this contest already.
