Every single time I go to page 1 to review my prizes, I can't stop laughing. I showed my youngest son, 17. He was cracking up and asked me if he could pick if I won. LOL. He is the real reason I even entered. (pity prize, please)

He's had concussions. I don't think he can maintain his concentration throughout the 20 questions.

1. Name the Hawaii starting lineup, specifically, S, OH, OH, OH, M, M, L. You need not differentiate between OH and OPP. (7 pts: 1 pt for each correct name) Iosia, Rasmussen, Hellvig, Van Sickle, Williams, Westerberg, Okino 2. List all Hawaii players who plays at least one point up to and including the moment when one team reaches 15 points in the first set. Normally, this is the technical timeout, however in some cases, the technical timeout is not called because one team calls a timeout shortly before any team reaches 15 points. (Maximum number of points = number of players who actually plays) (Contest point value = number of correct answers - number of incorrect answers) Iosia, Rasmussen, Hellvig, Van Sickle, Williams, Westerberg, Okino, Choy, Hanawahine. 3. Which team will win the match? (3 pts) Hawai’i 4. What is the final score, in sets (regardless of team)? (e.g., 3-0, 3-1, 3-2) (2 pts) 3-1 5. Which team will score first in the first set? (1 pt) Hawai’i 6. Which team will call a timeout first in the first set? (1 pt) San Diego 7. Which team will reach the 15th point first in the first set? (1 pt) Hawai’i 8. What will be Hawaii's team hitting percent (in the format, 0.xyz) at the end of the match? (Contest point value: 3 pts if within +/- 0.010; 2 pts if within +/- 0.020; 1 pt if within +/- 0.030) .300 9. Which Hawaii player will get the first kill? (1 pt) Rasmussen 10. Which Hawaii player will serve first? (1 pt) Iosia 11. Which Hawaii player will be the first to pass the ball? (1 pt) Rasmussen 12. Which Hawaii player will get the first dig? (1 pt) Van Sickle 13. Which Hawaii player (if any) will get the first block? (Both "Block solo" and "Block assist" count as a "block.") (Your answer may also be "none”) (1 pt) Williams 14. Which Hawaii player (if any) will get the first ace? (Your answer may also be "none") (1 pt) Choy 15. Which Hawaii player will get the most kills by the end of the match? (1 pt) Rasmussen 16. Which Hawaii player will get the second most kills by the end of the match? (1 pt) Hellvig 17. Which Hawaii player will have the highest hitting percentage by the end of the match? (1 pt) Williams 18. Which Hawaii player will have more Assists -- Bailey Choy or Norene Iosia? (1 pt) Iosia 19. Which Hawaii player will be named "Player of the Match" (as determined by the broadcasting company)? (1 pt) Rasmussen 20. What will be the official attendance listed on the box score? (3 pts if answer is within +/-200; 2 pts if answer is within +/-400; 1 pt if answer is within +/-600) If no attendance number is listed in the box score, I will use whatever number is mentioned in Cindy Luis's post-game article. If she mentions a turnstile number and another number (usually tickets sold), I will use the turnstile number. 6500 T1. (tiebreaker) Name the six Hawaii players who will play the first point of the first set. (The correct answer will be the six players on the court while the first served ball is in the air during the rally of the first point in the first set.)

Why is this thread not yet pinned?? LOL! That's a good one! I think PTW Contest had to go a couple years before publius had to convince the mods to pin it. I'm not sure the details of what transpired but that's my memory (vague it may be). Anyway, things need to establish credibility and durability and prove its value before it's legitimized by institutions (the board). (Everyone should quote this.) Even Fantasy League hasn't been pinned yet. I don't even know if it has ever been pinned. Also, the year end All-VolleyTalk Awards has never been pinned and it's now in its 4th year. I don't ask for anything to be pinned. I'm too proud to ask for such things.
