    Maybe in Doody's thread, but I don't reward page turns...in fact, I punish them... -1 point for Luko :)

    You'll notice I didn't call PTFTW, I just asked if there was a bonus. Ah who am I kidding, I don't stand a chance anyway (lulling you all into complacency so I can blow past you for the win).

    Ah right then, -2 points for making me think something that actually wasn't. :)

    Alright, we're past the midway point of this oh-so-lame contest. I can't believe I've posted such easy questions so far...it has been less of a contest and more of a "try and post the correct answer (which won't be hard) within 24 hours" kind of thing. Oh well, I'll try a little harder with this one.

    For a maximum of three points: I can trace my heritage back to three countries through my great-grandparents, name those countries. Here is your only hint, none of these countries are located south of the equator.

    You guys stuck with Germany pretty well there, ya'll know something I don't? :)

    Ok, I need to step up my game a bit more with this one and see some real deviation in points. I don't think I've mentioned this before, but I'm somewhat of a UFC fan. So tell me guys, who are my favorite fighters in the Welterweight, Middleweight, Light-Heavyweight and Heavyweight classes? Four different people, four different answers for four points. Here is the only clue I'll give: most of these guys have fought in different weight classes, the correct answer will be the class I like seeing them in the most.

    For your answers I'll need you to tell me which weight class you're assigning a name to, I won't assume anything and just a name will yield no points. As such, points will only be awarded for the right guy in the right weight class, so it goes without saying that the right guy in the wrong class is worth nothing.

    I, for one, was playing the odds. I looked up the country of origin statistics for your last name. Having sent you stogies came in handy.

    This question is gonna take some more time...

    Dammit first you tell me my Germany answer is most likely wrong, now you're gonna ask about UFC fighting. Thats about the only sport I pay no attention to, ok who is the biggest UFC fan on here? That way I know who to copy off of.

    Dan I specifically mentioned that I need weight classes with the name. And Kimbo isn't even UFC, he's just some backyard fighter. Would you kindly at least read the question completely before posing an answer?

    If it will ease your mind, Germany was very much a right answer. I was messing around. :)
