All visitors (members and guests) can now see this competition thread, but you still need to be Ant Egg rank members (by making at least 1 post) or above to enter. So if you wish to be eligible to try and win then please do not send me your answers until you have got to be Ant Egg rank on the forum.

To make it fair as we have had so many members enter, those who answer all 5 questions correctly will be placed in the draw for the top prize; and those who gave 4 correct answers will be entered for the runner up prize along with anyone not picked for the top prize. This means more members will get a chance at winning when the prize draw takes place at the end of this competition.

A reminder that this competition ends in under 3 days, in 58 hours from now. So if you have not entered time is running out, as we will not accept any more entries sent after 6PM on Friday; and the winner and runner up will be picked an hour later and sent notification in a PM. Please note, winners will be required to give their real name and address, but these will be kept private and only given to Dean so he can send out the prizes.
