| The Rules!!!! This month's contest is not your usual MULTIPLE GUESS test.... we haven't supplied ANY answers - we are letting you figure them ALL out yourself! Its a Treasure Hunt!!!
Scoring - 1 point for each correct answer, questions with multiple answers will be worth multiple points. (i.e. For a question "Name the Flintstones?" - the complete answer would be Fred, Wilma and Pebbles and would be worth 3 points - If you only said Fred and Wilma, you would only receive 2 points) All entries must dated January 15 to January 21. Winners will be announced on January 22. Winners - will be determined by number of points. The top 5 point totals will be declared winners. First Prize is a set of Mo's Marvelous Cards ( 8 cards, 4.5 x 5.5 with envelopes - each sealed in a individual cellophane bag - lovingly crafted by a CP dog fanatic) and will be awarded to the highest point count. Second prize is a a Cairn Pottery Jar (coloring may vary in actual prize) Tie Breaker - if two people have identical scores, we will re-score them by subtracting a point for each incorrect answer. If the scores are still identical, the person whose entry was received first will win.
