Good. An even amount of people. The first round, which starts tomorrow, will be a Q&A session. That's more of the easy part, then theme weeks begin. Good luck.

Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force.

I'm ready to start now, but I kinda want the contest to run on a controlled basis, so therefore, I'm going to postpone this contest for only two days...in my world, that translates to the beginning of Saturday. DOn't worry, in all actuality, this contest has only been delayed a matter of days. I've just been caught up in some things. Promise. In the meantime, HCM me if you have any questions.

Round One - Defy the God's Will

Test your knowledge with riddles have I
The correct answer, your score will fly.

Riddle 1:
A box of wonder, a gift of the gods
in which no mortal dare dream
The forces that bear great horrors
and she who laid them to ream

Riddle 2:
In the beginning, no mortal hath breath
and light of warming scale
The brother of he who set the burns
that weight of conscious did fail

Riddle 3:
Beautiful diva, strikingly pure
of vanity towards a goddess did bind.
Athena knows of who she chose
to forever wind and wind


Riddle 4:
Apollo's chariot to him that stole
hecaused fire's running wild
Alight on a disc to forever spin
across that which he beguiled.

Riddle 5:
Spawning beasts both great and droll
to the land doth she soil.
Her great evil spread with Typhon's stead,
the creatures of darkness roil.

Riddle 6:
Once a maiden in honors high
she tore her fame asunder
By the sea god ranting in the highest of wave,
forver plagued by Charybdis' thunder.

Wish yea all the best of luck with brains tuned up high,
One week forth will the scores by me take their alibi!

PS - Sorry for the dialect, I get carried away.

Since less than half of the participants have sent me their answers, I'll wait a few more hours, maybe bout three. If necessary, I won't reveal the answers until much late, but today IS the deadline. No extensions, sorry.
