This contest will send you on a hunt to various parts of BYC and our sister sites!
A few tips and rules:
1. Open 2 or 3 windows (or use tabbed browsing if you have it). Keep one window open to the contest and use the other windows to search for your answers. The questions will all be posted right here in post #1. (You will be asked to post links, also known as URLs, as answers to some questions).
2. Dont post pictures or custom smilies, and only one or two regular smilies if you really must (we do not want to slow anyone down).
3. Please number your answers so we can more easily find them and tally the score.
4. One point for the correct answer thats it.
5. Dont edit your post once you've answered thats it, no more answers. If you change your mind you can post again. Edited posts will not count.
6. One question will be posted at a time with apx. three minutes in between each posted question. Whoever answers first with the correct answer will win the point. Whoever wins the most points WINS the prize!! (Only one Trivia Challenge winner per member, so if you've won a BYC Trivia Challenge in the past please let others have a go.)
7. Have FUN.... and good luck!

Enjoy your new Golden Feather Membership for you or for a friend. Thanks to runner up sunny & the 5 egg layers and to everyone who played! Stay tuned for more Trivia Contests in the future. As always your constructive criticism and feedback is appreciated. Please let us know how we could make this contest more fun for YOU!
Correction to Game: sunny & the 5 egg layers is the official GFM winner for this contest!! While Punky did an AMAZING job and answered the most questions, he won 2nd place GFM in a contest in December. This correction was realized after the contest had finished. For those members who would like to play again who have won in the past, please stay tuned! We would like to give the most people an opportunity to win this game. Later, once we have had a substantial amount of winners, we will have a trivia contest open to ALL members, even those who have played before. Imagine how awesome that game will be?? Thanks again to all who played and thanks to Punky for understanding.
