I know it's not second or first *grumbles at Yoshi1001*
But hey...now I have a shred of credibilty here on the boards.
Or...maybe it just shows how pathetic I am...It's funny...I got two whole points from 15 on up.

I won? I won? Yes, thank you, thank you!
zzzzzzzzzzzzz..... I'm awake! I'm awake! I've finally proven once and for all that I spend way too much time on the boards.
Now, I must admit that *Misty*, you are formidable opponent. To be able to keep pace (as this did come down to the final question) with someone such as myself is a major acccomplishment, and you should be very proud of yourself. Were there to be a team trivia competiton, I would certainately seek you out as my partner.
To everyone else: Thank you so much. I appreciate your participation in this event immensely.
Let's wait another year to do this again, though. I can only take so much.
And of course, I thank the kind folks at WotC for providing this opportunity to us.
Oh, by the way *Misty*, let me know if you want to be interviewed for PIRN...I'd interview myself, but that could get ugly:

I made a pretty strong showing considering I didn't have a chance to answer the first 7 questions. Next year, I will just have to skip school that day. I hope we can have more contests similar to this in the future (though 3 days is a bit tiring ), I had a really fun time !

Wow it was close at the top! three points between 1st and second, Thats a photo finish.
Congrats to Sauron for highest placed European,
and congrats to all of us who have demonstrated devotion above and beyond. If anyone says that pokemon players are a bunch of geeks we can prove that we aren't now. Can't we?
Any chance of posting other trivia such as how long it was before the first answer came in, and the first correct answer in the case of some of the trickier questions.
How many of us took part?

Sure, I can do that. It may take a day or two to figure it all out, and some of the times will be an estimate, since certain people hijacked posts to put their questions in. One thing I can tell you right now is that there were 286 responses over the course of the contest. GREAT participation!!!

For those of us who were out of town and away from our computers, could all the trivia questions be collected here for those that just want to try to answer them? Maybe questions in one post, answers in another?
I'm kind of sad I couldn't participate, but I was in Vegas watching my son take second place in a large regional karate tournament. I've hired him as my future bodyguard.
