I’ve been thinking lately about fun ways to spread the word
about A Stiff Kiss as well as giving away some fun prizes. I came to this
thought, and hope you all have just as much fun playing the game as I did
creating it!
The rules are simple. Below you will find fifteen questions.
Your goal is to comb the net and find the answers. For each question I’ve given
you the source for the answer, but it’s still your job to locate it. This
contest is open to all residents of planet Earth so spread the word!
Once you’ve completed all the questions or done your best
you must email your answers to me HERE!
There are three prize packages up for grabs. For those of
you who manage to get all fifteen answers correct you will be entered to win:
The Grand Prize
Package including an A Stiff Kiss Canvas Tote bag and a Signed
Print Copy of A Stiff Kiss as well as some signed Swag. For the close but not all correct answers you will be entered to win:
The second Place Prize Package including an A Stiff Kiss T-shirt, signed swag and one E-Copy of A Stiff Kiss.
Because I believe everyone should have a chance to win a prize... For the rest of you who took the time to answer the questions whether you got them all right or not will be entered to win:
The Third Place Prize Package of an A Stiff Kiss Mouse-pad and some signed swag.
If you’d like to check out pictures of the Prize Packages up for grabs feel free to follow this LINK J
Now, the contest will run from July 4th 2012 and close Midnight (Standard MT Time) July 14th 2012.
And because all contests need to have rules, you can find those at the bottom of the page. They also will be posted at this LINK for future reference.
Here are the questions!
