HOW DID YOU KNOW - Rules and Regulations
Once a month, we present a 5-day trivia hunt called How Did You Know?
Starting on the last Tuesday of the month, we present four challenges, one per day.
You must have all the correct answers for all of the challenges and tell us how you arrived at the answers in order to qualify for the final puzzle.
The final puzzle is presented the following Monday at 8 pm ET, which gives you the weekend to work on any missing pieces to the previous four days' challenges.
The first person to e-mail in all the correct answers to all of the challenges and the final puzzle, include ALL of the questions presented in the final puzzle, is named the winner.
One random winner is also named per month. To qualify, you only need to have all the correct answers. You don't have to be the first to submit them.
Periodically, we also award t-shirts from our store to those who are creative with their answers. See examples here (scroll down) and here (scroll down).
Be sure to fan us over on our Facebook page to stay up-to-date with the latest challenges and rules.
