Fisher Woodcraft(Joe) and Myself(Spitfire) recently became vendor's on the site.
We wanted to team up and give back to a great community that has given so much to us.
We put together a trivia contest and will each be giving a beer tap away as prizes. Here is how this will work.
In the next few days I will be posting 20 trivia questions. Anybody and everybody is able to participate in the contest as long as you are in US or Canada
Once the questions are posted(Sometime between now and Sunday) you will have until midnight May 8th to submit your answers to me via PM.
When sending in your answers I want the answers only, please do not include the questions, just answers. Very important......Number all answers and send them in order. Your answers will be scored in order the questions were posted. It should look something like this.
1) beer
2)tap
3)keg
etc
Th prizes. If we have multiple people get all answers correct we will put their names in a hat and draw out 2 names for the winners. If nobody gets an answers right then we will got to the person who got the most right. If multiple people got the same amount right again we will draw names from a hat for the 2 winners.
What you can win.
One winner will get to pick an in stock tap from Fisher Woodcraft's website. In stock tap only.
The other winner will get a tap from me and will be made to order meaning you tell me the colors(up to 2 colors) and I will make it for you specific to what you want.
Once the contest is over and the winners are announced we will post the answers to the questions for all to see.
We want this to be fun while giving back to the community. I expect quite a few entrants so please be patient as we go through them once the deadline past to declare the winners.
Thanks
