RedHook, for your recent contract, is the requirement that the planet be factual and not fictional (IE, Mars and not Tatooine)? Reply #725. Mar 17 22, 11:00 AM |

Lastly, it must also qualify as a TRIC quiz."

My challenge: write a TRIC quiz (X, Y or Z, it doesn't matter) in a category you don't usually write in. Reply #728. Apr 09 22, 1:37 PM |
