well thats it then.   it seems to be over. all told,  she gave away 6 (rare?) gold 'mini' lightsabers,  and 2 force-FX lightsabers.     I won a force-FX -= cheers! =-

What was the question that u answered for the win?

I had to answer three questions for the win

(the way it works is,  she posts 3 questions from Star Wras trivial pursuit and the first person to post the correct answers, to ALL three questions in one single post (with NO editing allowed), wins the prize)

these were the questions for the prize I won...

Third and Final Round! Good luck everyone!    * Who knew Luke wasn’t on the second Death Star when it exploded, noting: “He wasn’t. I can feel it”?    * What color is a blaster’s stun bolt?    * Who did Obi-Wan claim was responsible for the “death” of Luke’s father?

she gives a 5 minute warning before she posts the questions so you have to just sit there constantly hitting "refresh" until you see her post with the questions and then (quick!) just post the first one-word-answers that come to mind and be the first to get your answers in.  

one guy beat me by 2 seconds for a force-FX on the next site, about 30 minutes after I won this one*.  another guy won last time for typing "the admiral" when the answer was admiral ozzel or admiral piett or something equally obscure. (heh)

and (get this!) there were only 12 people viewing the thread (read:playing the game) when I won my prize.  and 2 of them had already won in rounds 1&2, and 1 of them was the girl holding the contest. so my odds of winning were ON IN NINE, people!! :P for a $120 prize!!

* it turns out you CAN win at more than one site per night; its just that you can only win one prize per site (not 'per night').  
so I could have scored TWO of these force-FX's in one night (hehe)
but at the next site on the list , the other guy beat me by TWO SECONDS with all the same 3 answers as me LOL!
it was funny because I hesitated and reviewed my answers before I posted so it was nobody's fault but mine
(of course I didn't care because I already won the same prize a half hour earlier.  (heh) its all good)

=======================

I'll post again when they do it again  if anybody's interested.
I'm thinking I might take a break and let somebody else win for a change
(did I tell you I also won a Pirates of the Caribbean "aztec-gold-necklace" for my daughter a few weeks ago? LOL)


I'll let you guys know when to play  

well good thing i didnt waste my time there, i wouldnt have gotten a single question right
