Jjs Goodman Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Hello all, I am Pat Monahan. Lead singer of famous band "Train", known for their hit songs such as "DROPS OF JUPITER", "HAAAAAY SOULLLL SISTAH!", "THIS IS NOT A DRIVE-BY-A-AH-AHBY", and "HELP ME HELP ME I'M NO GOOD AT GOODBYES"- However, that is not what this topic is about. To those who remember SBC during Christmas time in 2012 and 2013, we had a popular Christmas Trivia Contest. We're going to be doing it for the 3rd time in a row this year to kick off our Snowcember Ball, so if you didn't win in the previous years or if you are a newcomer, here's a chance to win some prizes! We will have 10 rounds overall. Rules: -After the question is posted, in 5 minutes, you must PM your answer to me or whoever is hosting. We will then post "Time's up!" after those minutes are up, and tally the scores. -You can use the internet if you'd like, but again, you only have 5 minutes, so you better know how to use Google. -The first correct answers get points, descending from however many are playing to 1, based on who answered first. For example, if 5 people are playing, and OMJ, Steel, SOF, Halibut, and Cha sent in their answers in that order, OMJ would get 5, Steel would get 4, and so on. If one person doesn't get it right, then they would be skipped and however many points they were supposed to get would go to the next person who answered, if any. -At the end of the tenth question, the person with the highest score wins. To have fairness, you cannot win twice in a row. You can play in the next game for overall score points, but if you are leading and won the previous game, the second place person will win instead. -You can sign up whenever you want, just do not interrupt during the middle of a game. However, be warned that the later you join to play, the less chance you have of winning the overall prizes. Prizes: -Whoever wins each round will gain two prizes: 1,000 doubloons and a free shop item of choice. -Whoever has the most overall points at the end after Round 10 will get four special grand prizes: an emerald username color that they can keep for as long as they want, 100 reputation points, sneak peek of a future SBC project, and an exclusive limited edition SpongeBob character icon. (And don't worry, JCM and CNF won't be dominating the prizes this year. ) The first round will be Friday, December 5th at 7:00pm EST! The theme will be General Christmas Trivia, hosted by me. Be sure to check this topic for updates. Any further questions, feel free to post here. If you want to sign up, go ahead. Just keep in mind you can signup anytime if you forget to this week, but signing up will allow me to send reminder PMs. Contestants: SOF BubbleRock SG Crushingmayhem Tvguy Urchees Teenj Halibut 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jjs Goodman Posted December 6, 2014 Author Share Posted December 6, 2014 Alright, tonight's theme is General Christmas Trivia. Here's Question #1: Question #1: What figure is the mascot for Christmas? (full name) Remember, PM me your answers, do not post them in the topic. (Click here for a quick link to my profile) You will all have 5 minutes, and then I will post "Time's up!". I will then post the results, and continue onto the next question. Do note that tallying the scores may take a little while, so do not panic if it goes past the time limit a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
